Yea, do thou, Jehovah, the God of hosts, the God of Israel, arise to visit all the nations: be not gracious to any plotters of iniquity. Selah.

Slay them not, lest my people forget; by thy power make them wander, and bring them down, O Lord, our shield.

They shall wander about for meat, and stay all night if they be not satisfied.

Wilt not thou, O God, who didst cast us off? and didst not go forth, O God, with our armies?

He only is my rock and my salvation; my high fortress: I shall not be greatly moved.

He only is my rock and my salvation; my high fortress: I shall not be moved.

Put not confidence in oppression, and become not vain in robbery; if wealth increase, set not your heart upon it.

When I remember thee upon my bed, I meditate on thee in the night-watches:

That they may shoot in secret at the perfect: suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.

He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes observe the nations: let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah.

Who hath set our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved.

Thou broughtest us into a net, thou didst lay a heavy burden upon our loins;

Had I regarded iniquity in my heart, the Lord would not hear.

Blessed be God, who hath not turned away my prayer, nor his loving-kindness from me!

They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head; they that would destroy me, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty: then I restored that which I took not away.

Thou, O God, knowest my foolishness, and my trespasses are not hidden from thee.

Let not them that wait on thee, Lord, Jehovah of hosts, be ashamed through me; let not those that seek thee be confounded through me, O God of Israel.

Deliver me out of the mire, let me not sink; let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the depths of waters.

Let not the flood of waters overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me up; and let not the pit shut its mouth upon me.

And hide not thy face from thy servant, for I am in trouble: answer me speedily.

Let their eyes be darkened, that they see not, and make their loins continually to shake.

Add iniquity unto their iniquity, and let them not come into thy righteousness.

Let them be blotted out of the book of life, and not be written with the righteous.

For Jehovah heareth the needy, and despiseth not his prisoners.

Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength faileth.

O God, be not far from me; my God, hasten to my help.

My mouth shall declare thy righteousness, and thy salvation all the day: for I know not the numbers thereof.

Now also, when I am old and greyheaded, O God, forsake me not, until I have proclaimed thine arm unto this generation, thy might to every one that is to come.

They have not the hardships of mankind, neither are they plagued like other men:

We see not our signs; there is no more any prophet, neither is there among us any that knoweth how long.

The day is thine, the night also is thine; thou hast prepared the moon and the sun:

Give not up the soul of thy turtle-dove unto the wild beast; forget not the troop of thine afflicted for ever.

Oh let not the oppressed one return ashamed; let the afflicted and needy praise thy name.

Forget not the voice of thine adversaries: the tumult of those that rise up against thee ascendeth continually.

{To the chief Musician. 'Destroy not.' A Psalm of Asaph: a Song.} Unto thee we give thanks, O God, we give thanks; and thy name is near: thy marvellous works declare it.

I said unto the boastful, Boast not; and to the wicked, Lift not up the horn:

Lift not up your horn on high; speak not arrogantly with a stiff neck.

For not from the east nor from the west, nor yet from the south doth exaltation come:

In the day of my trouble, I sought the Lord: my hand was stretched out in the night, and slacked not; my soul refused to be comforted.

I remember my song in the night; I muse in mine own heart, and my spirit maketh diligent search.

Thy way is in the sea, and thy paths are in the great waters; and thy footsteps are not known.

We will not hide them from their sons, shewing forth to the generation to come the praises of Jehovah, and his strength, and his marvellous works which he hath done.

And that they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but observe his commandments;

And might not be as their fathers, a stubborn and rebellious generation, a generation that prepared not their heart, and whose spirit was not stedfast with God.

They kept not the covenant of God, and refused to walk in his law;

And he led them with a cloud in the daytime, and all the night with the light of fire.

Because they believed not in God, and confided not in his salvation;

They were not alienated from their lust, their meat was yet in their mouths,

For all this, they sinned still, and believed not in his marvellous works;

For their heart was not firm toward him, neither were they stedfast in his covenant.

But he was merciful: he forgave the iniquity, and destroyed them not; but many a time turned he his anger away, and did not stir up all his fury:

And he remembered that they were flesh, a breath that passeth away and cometh not again.

They remembered not his hand, the day when he delivered them from the oppressor,

And turned their rivers into blood, and their streams, that they could not drink;

He made a way for his anger; he spared not their soul from death, but gave their life over to the pestilence;

But they tempted and provoked God, the Most High, and kept not his testimonies,

The fire consumed their young men, and their maidens were not praised in nuptial song;

And he rejected the tent of Joseph, and chose not the tribe of Ephraim,

Pour out thy fury upon the nations that have not known thee, and upon the kingdoms that call not upon thy name:

Remember not against us the iniquities of our forefathers; let thy tender mercies speedily come to meet us: for we are brought very low.

So will we not go back from thee. Revive us, and we will call upon thy name.

He ordained it in Joseph for a testimony, when he went forth over the land of Egypt, where I heard a language that I knew not.

But my people hearkened not to my voice, and Israel would none of me.

They know not, neither do they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are moved.

{A Song; a Psalm of Asaph.} O God, keep not silence; hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God:

Wilt thou not revive us again, that thy people may rejoice in thee?

I will hear what God, Jehovah, will speak; for he will speak peace unto his people, and to his godly ones: but let them not turn again to folly.

O God, the proud are risen against me, and the assembly of the violent seek after my soul, and they have not set thee before them.

{A Song, a Psalm for the sons of Korah. To the chief Musician. Upon Mahalath Leannoth. An instruction. Of Heman the Ezrahite.} Jehovah, God of my salvation, I have cried by day and in the night before thee.

If his sons forsake my law, and walk not in mine ordinances;

If they profane my statutes, and keep not my commandments:

Nevertheless my loving-kindness will I not utterly take from him, nor belie my faithfulness;

My covenant will I not profane, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.

Once have I sworn by my holiness; I will not lie unto David:

Yea, thou hast turned back the edge of his sword, and hast not made him stand in the battle.

What man liveth, and shall not see death? Shall he deliver his soul from the power of Sheol? Selah.

For a thousand years, in thy sight, are as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.

Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night, for the arrow that flieth by day,

A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

A brutish man knoweth not, neither doth a fool understand it.

Jehovah reigneth, he hath clothed himself with majesty: Jehovah hath clothed himself, he hath girded himself with strength; yea, the world is established, it shall not be moved.

And say, Jah will not see, neither will the God of Jacob regard it.

He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? He that formed the eye, shall he not see?

He that instructeth the nations, shall not he correct he that teacheth man knowledge?

For Jehovah will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance;

If Jehovah had not been my help, my soul had almost dwelt in silence.

Harden not your heart, as at Meribah, as in the day of Massah, in the wilderness;

Forty years was I grieved with the generation, and said, It is a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known my ways;

So that I swore in mine anger, that they should not enter into my rest.

Say among the nations, Jehovah reigneth! yea, the world is established, it shall not be moved; he will execute judgment upon the peoples with equity.

Know that Jehovah is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

I will set no thing of Belial before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.

A perverse heart shall depart from me; I will not know evil.

Whoso secretly slandereth his neighbour, him will I destroy; him that hath a high look and a proud heart will I not suffer.

He that practiseth deceit shall not dwell within my house; he that speaketh falsehoods shall not subsist in my sight.

Hide not thy face from me: in the day of my trouble, incline thine ear unto me; in the day I call, answer me speedily.

He will regard the prayer of the destitute one, and not despise their prayer.

I said, My God, take me not away in the midst of my days! ... Thy years are from generation to generation.

Bless Jehovah, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:

He will not always chide, neither will he keep his anger for ever.
