For evildoers shall be cut off; but those who wait on Jehovah, they shall inherit the earth.

The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, to kill those who walk uprightly.

And those who seek my life lay snares for me; and those who seek my hurt speak sly things, and utter deceits all the day long.

And I am as a man who hears not, and in whose mouth are no reproofs.

And those who give evil for good oppose me, because I follow good.

Surely a man walks about like a shadow! Surely they are in an uproar in vain. He heaps up, and does not know who shall gather them.

Blessed is the man who makes Jehovah his trust and does not turn to the proud, nor to those who turn aside to a lie.

Let them be ashamed and humbled together, those who seek after my soul to destroy it; let them be driven backward and put to shame, those who wish me evil.

You make us a curse to our neighbors, a scorn and a mockery to those who are round about us.

Come, behold the works of Jehovah, who makes ruins on the earth;

who makes wars to cease to the ends of the earth; He breaks the bow, and cuts the spear in two; He burns the chariots in the fire.

He shall choose our inheritance for us, the majesty of Jacob whom He loved. Selah.

Those who trust in their wealth, and their many riches, boast themselves.

Gather My saints to Me; and those who cut My covenant by sacrifice.

Whoever offers praise glorifies Me; and he who sets a way, I will show him the salvation of God.

Behold, the man who did not make God his strength, but trusted in the abundance of his riches, he was strong in his wickedness.

My watchers panted for me daily; for many are they who proudly fight against me.

I will cry to God most high, to God who does all things for me.

He shall send from Heaven, and save me from the scorn of him who would swallow me up. Selah. God shall send forth His mercy and His truth.

To the Chief Musician. Do not destroy. A secret treasure of David, when Saul sent, and they watched the house to kill him. Deliver me from my enemies, O my God; defend me from those who rise up against me.

Behold, they bellow out with their mouth; swords are in their lips; for they say, Who hears?

You have given a banner to those who fear You, to lift it up because of the truth. Selah.

Who will bring me into the strong city? Who will lead me into Edom?

Through God we shall do great things; for it is He who shall trample our enemies.

For You, O God, have heard my vows; You have given an inheritance to those who fear Your name.

But those who seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the depths of the earth.

But the king shall rejoice in God; everyone who swears by Him shall glory; but the mouth of those who speak lies shall be stopped.

Hide me from the council of those who injure, from the rebelling of the workers of iniquity,

Come and hear, all you who fear God, and I will declare what He has done for my soul.

Blessed is God, who has not turned away my prayer, nor His mercy from me.

To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. A Song. Let God arise, let His enemies be scattered; also let those who hate Him flee before Him.

Sing to God, sing praises to His name; praise Him who rides on the heavens by His name JEHOVAH, and rejoice before Him.

God causes the lonely to live at home; He brings out those who are bound with chains; but the rebellious dwell in a dry land.

Kings of armies fled away; and she who stayed at home divided the plunder.

Yea, God shall wound the head of His enemies, and the hairy crown of him who walks on in his guilt.

Rebuke the wild beasts of the reeds, the herd of bulls, with the calves of the peoples, trampling down with the pieces of silver. He scatters the people who delight in war.

To Him who rides on the heavens of heavens of old; lo, He sends out His voice, a mighty voice.

O God, You are overwhelming out of Your holy places; the God of Israel is He who gives strength and powers to the people. Blessed is God.

They who hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head; they who would destroy me are mighty, my lying enemies. Then I restored what I did not take away.

Do not let those who wait on You, O Jehovah, the God of Hosts, be ashamed for my sake; let not the ones who seek You be ashamed for my sake, O God of Israel,

For the zeal of Your house has eaten Me up; and the reproaches of those who reproached You have fallen on Me.

Let them be ashamed and turned pale, those who seek after my soul; let them be turned backward and blush, those who desire my hurt.

Let them be turned back for a reward of their shame, those who say, Aha, aha!

Let all those who seek You rejoice and be glad in You; and let those who love Your salvation say without ending, Let God be magnified.

On You I have rested from the womb; You are He who took me out of my mother's bowels; my praise always shall be of You.

For my enemies speak against me; and those who watch for my soul plot together,

Let them be ashamed; let those who are enemies of my soul be consumed; let them be covered with reproach and dishonor, those who seek my hurt.

And now when I am old and gray-headed, O God, do not leave me; until I have declared Your strength to this generation, and Your power to everyone who is to come.

And Your righteousness, O God, is very high, who have done great things. O God, who is like You,

who has shown me great and evil distresses; You will turn me; You will make me live. You will turn me from the depths of the earth, You will bring me up.

Let the groaning of the prisoner come before You; according to the greatness of Your power, leave a remnant of those who are to die,

To the Chief Musician. A Testimony Concerning the Lilies. A Psalm of Asaph. Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, You who lead Joseph like a flock; You dwelling between the cherubs, shine forth.
