I will remember the Lord’s works;
yes, I will remember Your ancient wonders.

I will reflect on all You have done
and meditate on Your actions.

I will declare wise sayings;
I will speak mysteries from the past—

How long, Yahweh? Will You be angry forever?
Will Your jealousy keep burning like fire?

Then we, Your people, the sheep of Your pasture,
will thank You forever;
we will declare Your praise
to generation after generation.

Restore us, God;
look on us with favor,
and we will be saved.

Lord God of Hosts,
how long will You be angry
with Your people’s prayers?

Restore us, God of Hosts;
look on us with favor, and we will be saved.

Then we will not turn away from You;
revive us, and we will call on Your name.

Restore us, Yahweh, the God of Hosts;
look on us with favor, and we will be saved.

Listen, My people, and I will admonish you.
Israel, if you would only listen to Me!

I am Yahweh your God,
who brought you up from the land of Egypt.
Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it.

“How long will you judge unjustly
and show partiality to the wicked?Selah

However, you will die like men
and fall like any other ruler.”

They say, “Come, let us wipe them out as a nation
so that Israel’s name will no longer be remembered.”

Cover their faces with shame
so that they will seek Your name Yahweh.

As they pass through the Valley of Baca,
they make it a source of springwater;
even the autumn rain will cover it with blessings.

Will You be angry with us forever?
Will You prolong Your anger for all generations?

Will You not revive us again
so that Your people may rejoice in You?

I will listen to what God will say;
surely the Lord will declare peace
to His people, His godly ones,
and not let them go back to foolish ways.

Faithful love and truth will join together;
righteousness and peace will embrace.

Truth will spring up from the earth,
and righteousness will look down from heaven.

Also, the Lord will provide what is good,
and our land will yield its crops.

Righteousness will go before Him
to prepare the way for His steps.

I call on You in the day of my distress,
for You will answer me.

All the nations You have made
will come and bow down before You, Lord,
and will honor Your name.

Teach me Your way, Yahweh,
and I will live by Your truth.
Give me an undivided mind to fear Your name.

I will praise You with all my heart, Lord my God,
and will honor Your name forever.

Show me a sign of Your goodness;
my enemies will see and be put to shame
because You, Lord, have helped and comforted me.

“I will mention those who know Me:
Rahab, Babylon, Philistia, Tyre, and Cush—
each one was born there.”

And it will be said of Zion,
“This one and that one were born in her.”
The Most High Himself will establish her.

When He registers the peoples,
the Lord will record,
“This one was born there.”Selah

Singers and dancers alike will say,
“My whole source of joy is in you.”

Will Your faithful love be declared in the grave,
Your faithfulness in Abaddon?

Will Your wonders be known in the darkness
or Your righteousness in the land of oblivion?

A Maskil of Ethan the Ezrahite.I will sing about the Lord’s faithful love forever;
I will proclaim Your faithfulness to all generations
with my mouth.

For I will declare,
“Faithful love is built up forever;
You establish Your faithfulness in the heavens.”

‘I will establish your offspring forever
and build up your throne for all generations.’”Selah

My hand will always be with him,
and My arm will strengthen him.

The enemy will not afflict him;
no wicked man will oppress him.

I will crush his foes before him
and strike those who hate him.

My faithfulness and love will be with him,
and through My name
his horn will be exalted.

I will extend his power to the sea
and his right hand to the rivers.

He will call to Me, ‘You are my Father,
my God, the rock of my salvation.’

I will also make him My firstborn,
greatest of the kings of the earth.

I will always preserve My faithful love for him,
and My covenant with him will endure.

I will establish his line forever,
his throne as long as heaven lasts.

then I will call their rebellion
to account with the rod,
their sin with blows.

But I will not withdraw
My faithful love from him
or betray My faithfulness.

I will not violate My covenant
or change what My lips have said.

Once and for all
I have sworn an oath by My holiness;
I will not lie to David.

His offspring will continue forever,
his throne like the sun before Me,

How long, Lord? Will You hide Yourself forever?
Will Your anger keep burning like fire?

I will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust.”

He Himself will deliver you from the hunter’s net,
from the destructive plague.

He will cover you with His feathers;
you will take refuge under His wings.
His faithfulness will be a protective shield.

You will not fear the terror of the night,
the arrow that flies by day,

Though a thousand fall at your side
and ten thousand at your right hand,
the pestilence will not reach you.

You will only see it with your eyes
and witness the punishment of the wicked.

no harm will come to you;
no plague will come near your tent.

For He will give His angels orders concerning you,
to protect you in all your ways.

They will support you with their hands
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.

You will tread on the lion and the cobra;
you will trample the young lion and the serpent.

Because he is lovingly devoted to Me,
I will deliver him;
I will protect him because he knows My name.

When he calls out to Me, I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble.
I will rescue him and give him honor.

I will satisfy him with a long life
and show him My salvation.

For You have made me rejoice, Lord,
by what You have done;
I will shout for joy
because of the works of Your hands.

though the wicked sprout like grass
and all evildoers flourish,
they will be eternally destroyed.

For indeed, Lord, Your enemies—
indeed, Your enemies will perish;
all evildoers will be scattered.

You have lifted up my horn
like that of a wild ox;
I have been anointed with oil.

They will still bear fruit in old age,
healthy and green,

Lord, how long will the wicked—
how long will the wicked gloat?

Pay attention, you stupid people!
Fools, when will you be wise?

The Lord will not forsake His people
or abandon His heritage,

for justice will again be righteous,
and all the upright in heart will follow it.

If I say, “My foot is slipping,”
Your faithful love will support me, Lord.

He will pay them back for their sins
and destroy them for their evil.
The Lord our God will destroy them.

So I swore in My anger,
“They will not enter My rest.”

Let the fields and everything in them exult.
Then all the trees of the forest will shout for joy

before the Lord, for He is coming—
for He is coming to judge the earth.
He will judge the world with righteousness
and the peoples with His faithfulness.

All who serve carved images,
those who boast in idols, will be put to shame.
All the gods must worship Him.

before the Lord,
for He is coming to judge the earth.
He will judge the world righteously
and the peoples fairly.

A Davidic psalm.I will sing of faithful love and justice;
I will sing praise to You, Lord.

I will pay attention to the way of integrity.
When will You come to me?
I will live with a heart of integrity in my house.

I will not set anything worthless before my eyes.
I hate the practice of transgression;
it will not cling to me.

A devious heart will be far from me;
I will not be involved with evil.

I will destroy anyone
who secretly slanders his neighbor;
I cannot tolerate anyone
with haughty eyes or an arrogant heart.

No one who acts deceitfully
will live in my palace;
no one who tells lies
will remain in my presence.

Every morning I will destroy
all the wicked of the land,
eliminating all evildoers from the Lord’s city.

You will rise up and have compassion on Zion,
for it is time to show favor to her—
the appointed time has come.

Then the nations will fear the name of Yahweh,
and all the kings of the earth Your glory,

for the Lord will rebuild Zion;
He will appear in His glory.

He will pay attention to the prayer of the destitute
and will not despise their prayer.

This will be written for a later generation,
and a newly created people will praise the Lord:

They will perish, but You will endure;
all of them will wear out like clothing.
You will change them like a garment,
and they will pass away.

But You are the same,
and Your years will never end.

Your servants’ children will dwell securely,
and their offspring will be established before You.”

He will not always accuse us
or be angry forever.

Praise the Lord, all His armies,
His servants who do His will.

He established the earth on its foundations;
it will never be shaken.
