They have seen thy progress O God, The progress of my GOD, my king into the sanctuary:

The humbled have seen - they rejoice! Ye seekers of God, let your heart, then, revive;

For, God, will save Zion, And build the cities of Judah, So shall men dwell there, and possess it:

O God! thy justice, give, unto the king, And thy righteousness, unto the son of a king;

Let men revere thee, With the sun, And in presence of the moon, Unto the remotest generation.

May his Name he age-abiding, In the presence of the sun, let his Name flourish, - And may all the families of the ground bless themselves in him, All nations, pronounce him happy!

Ended are the prayers of David, son of Jesse.

Remember thine own assembly thou didst acquire aforetime, Thou didst redeem the tribe of thine own inheritance, Mount Zion, wherein thou didst take up thy habitation.

Our own signs, have we not seen, - There is no longer a prophet, - Neither is there with us, one who knoweth - How long!

Thine, is the day, Yea, thine, the night, Thou, didst establish moon and sun;

Now hath come into Salem, his pavilion, And his dwelling-place into Zion.

In presence of their fathers, wrought he, wondrously, - In the land of Egypt - the field of Zoan:

When he set, in Egypt, his signs, And his wonders, in the plain of Zoan;

But made choice of the tribe of Judah, The mountain of Zion, which he loved;

Yea the stock which thy right hand planted, Even upon the son thou didst secure for thyself.

Let thy hand be, Upon the Man of thy right hand, Upon the Son of Man thou didst secure for thyself;

Right soon, their foes, would I subdue, And, against their adversaries, would I turn my hand:

They go from strength to strength, Each one appeareth before God in Zion.

For, a sun and shield, is Yahweh God, - Grace and glory, will Yahweh give, He will not withhold what is good, from them who walk without blame.

Thou hast taken away, the iniquity of thy people, Thou hast covered, all their sin. Selah.

Turn thou unto me, and show me favour, - Give thy strength to thy servant, And save the son of thy handmaid.

Yahweh loveth the gates of Zion, More than all the dwellings of Jacob.

But, of Zion, it shall be said - This man and that were born in her, And the Highest himself shall establish her.

No foe shall make exactions on him, Nor shall, a son of perversity, humiliate him;

His seed, age-abidingly, shall remain, And, his throne, be like the sun before me;

Make us glad, according to, The days thou hast humbled us, The years we have seen misfortune:

If, Yahweh, had not been a help to me, Soon had sunk into silence - my soul!

His lightnings, have illumined, the world, The earth, hath seen, and hath trembled;

The heavens, have declared, his righteousness, - And all the peoples, have seen, his glory.

Zion, hath heard and rejoiced, And the daughters of Judah, have exulted, Because of thy righteous decisions, O Yahweh:

Light, is sown for the righteous one, And, for the upright in heart, rejoicing:

He hath remembered his lovingkindness and his faithfulness towards the house of Israel, - All the ends of the earth, have seen, the salvation of our God.

Yahweh, in Zion, is great, And, high, is he over all the peoples.

Thou, wilt arise, wilt have compassion upon Zion, Surely it is time to favour her, Surely the time appointed, hath come;

When Yahweh, hath built up, Zion, Hath appeared in his glory;

To the end the Name of Yahweh, might be celebrated in Zion, And his praise in Jerusalem:

He hath made the moon for seasons, And, the sun, knoweth his place for entering in.

The sun ariseth, they withdraw themselves, And, in their lairs, lay them down.

He suffered no son of earth to oppress them, And reproved - for their sakes - even kings!

Soon forgat they his works, - They waited not for his counsel;

And have sown fields, and planted vineyards, and made them fruits of increase:

When he is judged, let him go out condemned, and let, his own petition, become a sin;

Remembered be the iniquity of his fathers against Yahweh, and, the sin of his mother, let it not be wiped out;

Thy sceptre of strength, will Yahweh extend out of Zion, Tread thou down, in the midst of thy foes.

From the rising of the sun unto the going in thereof, Worthy to be praised, is the Name of Yahweh:

I beseech thee, O Yahweh - for, I, am thy servant, - I, am thy servant, the son of thy handmaid, Thou hast loosened my bonds.

In my heart, have I treasured what thou hast said, to the end I may not sin against thee.

[ZAYIN] Remember the word unto thy servant, upon which thou hast caused me to hope.

To all perfection, have I seen an end, Broad is thy commandment, exceedingly.

I have seen traitors, and felt loathing, Because, thy word, they kept not.

By day, the sun, shall not smite, nor, the moon, by night.

They who trust in Yahweh, are like Mount Zion, which shall not be shaken, Age-abidingly, shall it remain.

When Yahweh brought back the captives of Zion, we were like them who dream:

Yahweh will bless thee, out of Zion, - and behold thou the welfare of Jerusalem, all the days of thy life!

Let all who hate Zion, be ashamed and shrink back:

For Yahweh hath chosen Zion, - He hath desired it as a dwelling for himself:

Like the dew of Hermon, which descended upon the mountains of Zion, - for, there, did Yahweh command the blessing, Life, unto times age-abiding?

May Yahweh, bless thee, out of Zion, even he that made heaven and earth.

Blessed be Yahweh out of Zion, Who inhabiteth Jerusalem, Praise ye Yah!

The sun to rule the day, For, age-abiding, is his lovingkindness.

By the rivers of Babylon, there, we sat down, yea we wept - when we remembered Zion:

For, there, our captors asked of us words of song, and our plunderers - gladness, - Sing us of the songs of Zion!

O Yahweh! what is the earthborn, And yet thou hast acknowledged him, - the son of a mortal, And yet thou hast taken account of him:

Do not ye trust in nobles, in a son of man who hath no deliverance:

Yahweh, will reign, to times age-abiding, Thy God, O Zion, to generation after generation. Praise ye Yah!

Laud thou, O Jerusalem, Yahweh, Praise thy God, O Zion:

Who giveth snow like wool, Hoar-frost - like ashes, he scattereth:

Praise him, sun and moon, Praise him, all ye stars of light;

Fire and hail, snow and vapour, stormy wind, fulfilling his word;

Let Israel rejoice in him that made him, Let the sons of Zion exult in their king;

The proverbs of Solomon, son of David, King of Israel:

Hear, my son, the correction of thy father, and do not reject the instruction of thy mother;

My son, if sinners entice thee, do not consent.

My son, do not walk in the way with them, Withhold thy foot from their path.

My son, if thou wilt receive my sayings, and, my commandments, wilt treasure up by thee;

My son, mine instruction, do not thou forget, and, my commandment, let thy heart observe;

The, chastening of Yahweh, my son, do not reject, nor loathe his rebuke;

For, whom Yahweh loveth, he correcteth, he causeth pain to the son in whom he delighteth.

My son, let them not depart from thine eyes, guard thou counsel, and purpose:

For, a son, became I to my father, tender and most precious in the sight of my mother.

Hear, my son, and receive my sayings, and they will multiply to thee the years of life.

My son, to my words, attend, to my sayings, incline thou thine ear;

My son, to my wisdom, attend, and, to mine understanding, incline thou thine ear:

Soon was I in all evil, in the midst of convocation and assembly.

Wherefore, then, shouldst thou stray, my son, with a strange woman? or embrace the bosom of a woman unknown?

His own iniquities, shall entrap him with the lawless, and, by the cords of his own sin, shall he be seized.

My son, if thou have become surety for thy neighbour, - have struck for a stranger thy hands,

Do this then, my son, and deliver thyself, When thou hast come into the hand of thy neighbour, Go, haste thee, and urge thy neighbour;

Observe thou, my son, the commandment of thy father, and do not decline from the instruction of thy mother:

My son, keep my sayings, and, my commandments, treasure by thee;

The Proverbs of Solomon: A wise son, maketh a glad father, but, a foolish son, is the grief of his mother.

He that gathereth in summer, is a prudent son, he that sleepeth long in harvest, is a son causing shame.

The labour of the righteous, leadeth to life, the increase of the lawless, to sin.

A righteous son, turneth to life, but, he that pursueth wickedness, to his own death.

As a ring of gold in the snout of a swine, is a woman of beauty who hath abandoned discretion.

A son of earth, shall not be established, by lawlessness, but, the root of the righteous, shall not be disturbed.

Of the fruit of a man's mouth, shall he be satisfied with good, and, the dealing of the hands of a son of earth, shall be paid back to him.

A wise son, cometh of a father's correction, but, a scoffer, heareth not a rebuke.

He that withholdeth his rod, hateth his son, - but, he that loveth him, carefully correcteth him.

Righteousness, exalteth a nation, but, a reproach to any people, is sin.
