Fill their faces with confusion, That they may seek thy name, O Jehovah.

That they may know that thou alone, whose name is Jehovah, Art the Most High over all the earth.

My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of Jehovah; My heart and my flesh cry out unto the living God.

Yea, the sparrow hath found her a house, And the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, Even thine altars, O Jehovah of hosts, My King, and my God.

O Jehovah God of hosts, hear my prayer; Give ear, O God of Jacob. Selah

For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, Than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.

Wilt thou not quicken us again, That thy people may rejoice in thee?

Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him, That glory may dwell in our land.

Bow down thine ear, O Jehovah, and answer me; For I am poor and needy.

Preserve my soul; for I am godly: O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee.

Be merciful unto me, O Lord; For unto thee do I cry all the day long.

Rejoice the soul of thy servant; For unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.

Give ear, O Jehovah, unto my prayer; And hearken unto the voice of my supplications.

In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee; For thou wilt answer me.

Teach me thy way, O Jehovah; I will walk in thy truth: Unite my heart to fear thy name.

I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with my whole heart; And I will glorify thy name for evermore.

For great is thy lovingkindness toward me; And thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest Sheol.

O God, the proud are risen up against me, And a company of violent men have sought after my soul, And have not set thee before them.

Oh turn unto me, and have mercy upon me; Give thy strength unto thy servant, And save the son of thy handmaid.

Show me a token for good, That they who hate me may see it, and be put to shame, Because thou, Jehovah, hast helped me, and comforted me.

I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon as among them that know me: Behold, Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia: This one was born there.

They that sing as well as they that dance'shall say , All my fountains are in thee.

O Jehovah, the God of my salvation, I have cried day and night before thee.

Let my prayer enter into thy presence; Incline thine ear unto my cry.

For my soul is full of troubles, And my life draweth nigh unto Sheol.

Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, In dark places, in the deeps.

Thy wrath lieth hard upon me, And thou hast afflicted me with all thy waves. Selah

Thou hast put mine acquaintance far from me; Thou hast made me an abomination unto them: I am shut up, and I cannot come forth.

Mine eye wasteth away by reason of affliction: I have called daily upon thee, O Jehovah; I have spread forth my hands unto thee.

But unto thee, O Jehovah, have I cried; And in the morning shall my prayer come before thee.

Jehovah, why castest thou off my soul? Why hidest thou thy face from me?

I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up: While I suffer thy terrors I am distracted.

Thy fierce wrath is gone over me; Thy terrors have cut me off.

They came round about me like water all the day long; They compassed me about together.

Lover and friend hast thou put far from me, And mine acquaintance into darkness.

I will sing of the lovingkindness of Jehovah for ever: With my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations.

I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my servant:

I have found David my servant; With my holy oil have I anointed him:

With whom my hand shall be established; Mine arm also shall strengthen him.

But my faithfulness and my lovingkindness shall be with him; And in my name shall his horn be exalted.

He shall cry unto me, Thou art my Father, My God, and the rock of my salvation.

I also will make him my first-born, The highest of the kings of the earth.

My lovingkindness will I keep for him for evermore; And my covenant shall stand fast with him.

If his children forsake my law, And walk not in mine ordinances;

If they break my statutes, And keep not my commandments;

But my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, Nor suffer my faithfulness to fail.

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

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

His seed shall endure for ever, And his throne as the sun before me.

Oh remember how short my time is: For what vanity hast thou created all the children of men!

Remember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants; How I do bear in my bosom the reproach of all the mighty peoples,

So teach us to number our days, That we may get us a heart of wisdom.

Oh satisfy us in the morning with thy lovingkindness, That we may rejoice and be glad all our days.

I will say of Jehovah, He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in whom I trust.

For thou, O Jehovah, art my refuge! Thou hast made the Most High thy habitation;

Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

He shall call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble: I will deliver him, and honor him.

With long life will I satisfy him, And show him my salvation.

For thou, Jehovah, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands.

But my horn hast thou exalted like the horn of the wild-ox: I am anointed with fresh oil.

Mine eye also hath seen my desire on mine enemies, Mine ears have heard my desire of the evil-doers that rise up against me.

To show that Jehovah is upright; He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.

Who will rise up for me against the evil-doers? Who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?

Unless Jehovah had been my help, My soul had soon dwelt in silence.

When I said, My foot slippeth; Thy lovingkindness, O Jehovah, held me up.

In the multitude of my thoughts within me Thy comforts delight my soul.

But Jehovah hath been my high tower, And my God the rock of my refuge.

When your fathers tempted me, Proved me, and saw my work.

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

Wherefore I sware in my wrath, That they should not enter into my rest.

I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way: Oh when wilt thou come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.

I will set no base thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; It shall not cleave unto me.

A perverse heart shall depart from me: I will know no evil thing.

Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: He that walketh in a perfect way, he shall minister unto me.

He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: He that speaketh falsehood shall not be established before mine eyes.

Hear my prayer, O Jehovah, And let my cry come unto thee.

Hide not thy face from me in the day of my distress: Incline thine ear unto me; In the day when I call answer me speedily.

For my days consume away like smoke, And my bones are burned as a firebrand.

My heart is smitten like grass, and withered; For I forget to eat my bread.

By reason of the voice of my groaning My bones cleave to my flesh.

Mine enemies reproach me all the day; They that are mad against me do curse by me.

For I have eaten ashes like bread, And mingled my drink with weeping,

Because of thine indignation and thy wrath: For thou hast taken me up, and cast me away.

My days are like a shadow that declineth; And I am withered like grass.

That men may declare the name of Jehovah in Zion, And his praise in Jerusalem;

He weakened my strength in the way; He shortened my days.

I said, O my God, take me not away in the midst of my days: Thy years are throughout all generations.

Bless Jehovah, O my soul; And all that is within me, bless his holy name.

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

Bless Jehovah, all ye his works, In all places of his dominion: Bless Jehovah, O my soul.

Bless Jehovah, O my soul. O Jehovah my God, thou art very great; Thou art clothed with honor and majesty:

Thou hast set a bound that they may not pass over; That they turn not again to cover the earth.

He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, And herb for the service of man; That he may bring forth food out of the earth,

I will sing unto Jehovah as long as I live: I will sing praise to my God while I have any being.

Let sinners be consumed out of the earth. And let the wicked be no more. Bless Jehovah, O my soul. Praise ye Jehovah.

Saying , Touch not mine anointed ones, And do my prophets no harm.

Remember me, O Jehovah, with the favor that thou bearest unto thy people; Oh visit me with thy salvation,

That I may see the prosperity of thy chosen, That I may rejoice in the gladness of thy nation, That I may glory with thine inheritance.

And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, That they may prepare a city of habitation,

My heart is fixed, O God; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises, even with my glory.
