You have caused us to pull back from [the] enemy, and [so] those who hate us have plundered for themselves.

Your arrows [are] sharp; peoples fall under you in the midst of the king's enemies.

Hear, O daughter, and {discern} and incline your ear, and forget your people and your father's house.

The king's daughter is all glorious within; her garment [is] of gold embroidered cloth.

Therefore we will not fear though [the] earth change, and though the mountains totter into [the] {midst} of [the] sea,

Come, see the works of Yahweh, who has placed desolations on the earth.

[The] princes of [the] peoples are gathered together [with] the people of Abraham's God. For [the] shields of [the] earth belong to God. He is very exalted.

For see, the kings assembled; they advanced together.

{They themselves saw} [it], so they were astonished. They were terrified; they ran off.

As we have heard, so we have seen in the city of Yahweh of hosts, in the city of our God. God will establish her forever. Selah

As [is] your name, O God, so [is] your praise to [the] ends of [the] earth. Your right hand is full of righteousness.

{Consider well} her ramparts. Go through her citadels so that you can tell [the] next generation

so that he may stay alive forever [and] not see the pit.

it will go to the generation of his fathers. Never will they see light.

When you see a thief, then you are pleased with him, and your association [is] with adulterers.

You sit and speak against your brother; you slander your mother's son.

Against you, only you, I have sinned and have done this evil in your eyes, so that you are correct when you speak, you are blameless when you judge.

And [the] righteous will see and fear, and will laugh at him, [saying],

God looks down from heaven upon the children of humankind to see whether there is one who has insight, one who seeks God.

See, God [is] my helper; The Lord [is] with those who sustain my life.

So I say, "{Oh, that} I had wings like a dove. I would fly away and be at rest.

Confuse, O Lord; divide their speech, because I see violence and strife in the city.

so that it does not hear [the] voice of charmers [or the] skilled caster of spells.

[Let them be] like a snail [that] melts away [as] it goes; [like the] stillborn of woman [that] do not see [the] sun.

And people will say, "Surely [there is] a {reward} for the righteous. Surely there is a God [who] judges in the land."

Without guilt on my part they run and ready themselves. Awake to meet me and see.

Look, they pour out [talk] with their mouth. Swords [are] on their lips, for [they say], "Who hears?"

Destroy in anger; destroy so they are no more, so that they may know that God [is] ruling in Jacob to the ends of the earth. Selah

so that your beloved ones may be rescued. Save by your right hand and answer us.

So I will sing the praise of your name forever, that I may fulfill my vows {daily}.

So I will bless you while I live. I will lift up my {hands} in your name.

They encourage themselves [in the] evil matter. They talk of secretly laying snares. They say, "Who will see them?"

so that [the] inhabitants of [the] farthest reaches are in awe of your signs. You make the dawn and sunset sing for joy.

You care for the land and water it; you greatly enrich it. The stream of God [is] filled with waters. You provide their grain, for so you have established it.

Say to God, "How awesome are your works! Because of the greatness of your strength, your enemies will cringe before you.

He turned [the] sea into dry ground; they passed through the river on foot. There we rejoiced in him.

You have ascended on high; you have led away captives. You have received gifts [from] among humankind, and even [from the] rebellious, so that Yah God may dwell [there].

The Lord said, "I will bring [them] back from Bashan; I will bring [them] back from [the] depths of [the] sea,

so that your foot may shatter [them] bloody [for] the tongues of your dogs [to have] their share from [the] enemies."

to the one who rides in the highest heavens of old. See, he gives forth his voice, a mighty voice.

I have become a stranger to my brothers and a foreigner to my mother's sons,

Let their eyes be dark so they cannot see, and make their loins continually tremble.

[The] afflicted will see [and] rejoice. O God seekers, let your heart revive,

let them turn back because of their shame, those who say, "Aha! Aha!"

Let them rejoice and be glad in you, all those who seek you. Let them say continually, "God is great!" [those] who love your salvation.

You who have caused me to see many troubles and evils, you will again revive me. And from the depths of the earth you will again bring me up.

O God, give your judgments to [the] king, and your righteousness to [the] king's son.

And may he rule from sea up to sea, and from [the] River to [the] edges of [the] land.

So may he live, and may gold from Sheba be given to him, and may prayers be offered for him continually. May blessings be invoked for him {all day long}.

May there be an abundance of grain in the land [even] on [the] top of [the] mountains. May his crop sway like the [trees of] Lebanon, and may [those] from [the] city blossom like the grass of the earth.

because I envied the boastful [when] I saw [the] well-being of [the] wicked.

And they say, "How does God know?" and, "Does the Most High have knowledge?"

See, these [are the] wicked, and they increase wealth, ever carefree.

If I had said, "I will speak thus," behold, I would have acted treacherously against your children's generation.

We do not see our signs, and there is no longer a prophet. No one with us knows how long.

You split open [the] sea by your strength; You broke [the] heads of [the] sea monsters in the waters.

I say to the boastful, 'Do not boast!' and to the wicked, 'Do not lift up [your] horn!

So I said, "This pierces me-- the right [hand] of the Most High [has] changed."

Waters saw you, O God; waters saw you [and] they trembled. Surely [the] deeps shook.

Your way [was] through the sea, and your path through many waters. Yet your footprints were not discerned.

so that [the] next generation might know-- children [yet to] be born-- [that] they might rise up and tell their children,

He split the sea and caused them to go over, and he caused waters to stand like a heap.

So they ate and were well filled, and he brought about [what] they craved.

So they again tested God and distressed the Holy One of Israel.

when he turned their rivers to blood so they could not drink [from] their streams.

And he led them safely and they were not afraid, but the sea covered their enemies.

So he brought them to his holy territory, this mountain his right hand acquired.

So he abandoned the dwelling place at Shiloh, [the] tent he had placed among humankind.

Why should the nations say, "Where [is] their God?" Let it be known among the nations before our eyes, [by] the avenging of the blood of your servants that was poured out.

It spread its branches to [the] sea and its shoots to [the] river.

Why have you broken down its walls, so that all [who] pass on [the] road pluck [fruit from] it?

Please return, O God [of] hosts. Observe from heaven and see, and pay attention to this vine,

So I let them go in the stubbornness of their heart; they walked in their counsels.

They do not know or consider. They go about in the darkness, [so that] all [the] foundations of [the] earth are shaken.

They say, "Come, let us annihilate them from [being] a nation, so that the name of Israel will be remembered no more."

so pursue them with your tempest and terrify them with your storm.

Do a sign [that] benefits me, that those who hate me may see and be put to shame, because you, O Yahweh, have helped me and comforted me.

I will sing forever of Yahweh's acts of loyal love. {From generation to generation} I will make known your faithfulness with my mouth.

For I say, "Forever [your] loyal love is built up. [The] heavens you have established [with] your faithfulness in them."

And [so the] heavens will praise your wonderful deed, O Yahweh, even your faithfulness, in [the] assembly of [the] holy ones.

You are ruling the surging of the sea. When its waves rise, {you yourself still} them.

And [so] my faithfulness and my loyal love [will be] with him, and in my name his horn will rise up.

And I will set his hand on the sea and his right hand on the rivers.

What man can live [on] and not see death? Can he deliver his life from the {power} of Sheol? Selah

For all of our days dwindle away in your rage; we complete our years like a sigh.

So teach [us] to number our days that we may gain a heart of wisdom.

I will say to Yahweh, "[You are] my refuge and my fortress, my God [in whom] I trust."

You will only look with your eyes, and see [the] punishment of [the] wicked.

When the wicked flourish like grass and all [the] workers of evil blossom, [it is] so they can be destroyed forever.

And [so] my eye looks on my enemies. My ears hear those evildoers who rise up against me.

Yahweh is king; he clothes himself with majesty. Yahweh clothes himself; he girds himself with might. Yes, [the] world is established [so that] it will not be moved.

[Mightier] than the rumblings of many waters, [mightier] than [the] mighty breakers of [the] sea, Yahweh on high [is] mighty.

while they say, "Yah does not see," and "The God of Jacob does not pay attention."

Will [the] one who planted [the] ear not hear? Will [the] one who formed [the] eye not see?

to whom belongs the sea that he made, and [the] dry land [that] his hands formed.

Say among the nations, "Yahweh is king! Yes, [the] world is established [so that] it will not be moved. He will judge [the] peoples fairly."

Let the heavens be glad and the earth rejoice. Let the sea with its fullness roar.

The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the peoples see his glory.

Let the sea with its fullness roar, [the] world and those who live in it.

Let this be written for [the] next generation, so that a people [yet] to be created may praise Yah,
