The Lord has established His throne in the heavens,
And His sovereignty rules over all [the universe].

Praise the Lord, all that he has made, in all the regions of his kingdom! Praise the Lord, O my soul!

Bless, O my soul, Jehovah! Jehovah, my God, Thou hast been very great, Honour and majesty Thou hast put on.

He has made the earth strong on its bases, so that it may not be moved for ever and ever;

The abyss! as with clothing Thou hast covered it, Above hills do waters stand.

They go up by the mountains; they go down by the valleys unto the place which thou hast founded for them.

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

Who hast sent forth springs, through the torrent-beds, Between the mountains, they flow along;

The trees of the Lord drink their fill,
The cedars of Lebanon which He has planted,

where birds make [their] nest. [The] stork [has] its home in [the] fir trees.

Thou hast appointed the moon for certain seasons, the sun knoweth his going down.

O LORD, how manifold are thy works! in wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches.

There go the ships: there is that leviathan, whom thou hast made to play therein.

May the splendor of the Lord endure! May the Lord find pleasure in the living things he has made!

Remember [with awe and gratitude] the wonderful things which He has done,
His amazing deeds and the judgments uttered by His mouth [on His enemies, as in Egypt],

He has remembered his covenant forever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations,

Let the redeemed of the Lord say so,
Whom He has redeemed from the hand of the adversary,

and has gathered them from the lands—
from the east and the west,
from the north and the south.

Let them give thanks to the Lord for his loyal love, and for the amazing things he has done for people!

For He has satisfied the thirsty
and filled the hungry with good things.

Let them give thanks to the Lord for his loyal love, and for the amazing things he has done for people!

For He has shattered the gates of bronze
And cut the bars of iron apart.

Let them give thanks to the Lord for his loyal love, and for the amazing things he has done for people!

Let them present thank offerings, and loudly proclaim what he has done!

They staggered and trembled like a drunken man,
And were at their wits’ end [all their wisdom was useless].

Let them give thanks to the Lord for his loyal love, and for the amazing things he has done for people!

God has spoken in His holiness:
“I will rejoice, I will portion out Shechem [as I divide Canaan among My people],
And measure out the Valley of Succoth.

Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who has led me to Edom?

Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our hosts?

For the mouth of the sinner is open against me in deceit: his tongue has said false things against me.

Let the creditor seize all that he has,
And let strangers plunder the product of his labor.

He loved to curse others, so those curses have come upon him. He had no desire to bless anyone, so he has experienced no blessings.

He put on cursing like a robe, and it has come into his body like water, and into his bones like oil.

My knees are unsteady from fasting;
And my flesh is gaunt and without fatness.

That they may know that this is thy hand; that thou, LORD, hast done it.

Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth.

The Lord has sworn [an oath] and will not change His mind:
“You are a priest forever
According to the order of Melchizedek.”

He has made His wonderful acts to be remembered;
The Lord is gracious and merciful and full of loving compassion.

He has given food to those who fear Him [with awe-inspired reverence];
He will remember His covenant forever.

He has declared and made known to His people the power of His works,
In giving them the heritage of the nations.

He has sent redemption to His people;
He has ordained His covenant forever;
Holy and awesome is His name—[inspiring reverence and godly fear].

Let the Lord be praised. Happy is the man who gives honour to the Lord, and has great delight in his laws.

His heart is secure, he has no fears; in the end he will look in triumph on his adversaries.

He has given freely to the poor;
His righteousness endures forever;
His horn will be exalted in honor.

Who is like the Lord our God,
Who is enthroned on high,

But our God is in heaven: he has done whatever was pleasing to him.

The Lord has been mindful of us; He will bless,
He will bless the house of Israel;
He will bless the house of Aaron.

The heavens are the heavens of the Lord,
But the earth He has given to the children of men.

I love the Lord, because He hears [and continues to hear]
My voice and my supplications (my pleas, my cries, my specific needs).

Because He has inclined His ear to me,
Therefore I will call on Him as long as I live.

Return to your rest, O my soul,
For the Lord has dealt bountifully with you.

For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.

How can I repay the Lord
for all the good He has done for me?

O LORD, truly I am thy servant; I am thy servant, and the son of thine handmaid: thou hast loosed my bonds.

Thou hast thrust sore at me that I might fall: but the LORD helped me.

The Lord is my strength and song,
And He has become my salvation.

[The] sound of rejoicing and salvation [is] in [the] tents of [the] righteous; the right hand of Yahweh [has] done valiantly.

The right hand of Yahweh [has] exalted; the right hand of Yahweh [has] done valiantly.

I will not die, but I will live
and proclaim what the Lord has done.

The Lord has disciplined me severely,
But He has not given me over to death.

I will praise thee: for thou hast heard me, and art become my salvation.

The stone which the builders rejected
Has become the chief corner stone.

This [day in which God has saved me] is the day which the Lord has made;
Let us rejoice and be glad in it.

The Lord is God, and He has given us light [illuminating us with His grace and freedom and joy].
Bind the festival sacrifices with cords to the horns of the altar.

Thou hast commanded us to keep thy precepts diligently.

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

My soul is crushed with longing
For Your ordinances at all times.

Thou hast rebuked the proud that are cursed, which do err from thy commandments.

I have declared my ways, and thou hast answered me: teach me thy statutes.

I will run the way of thy commandments, when thou hast set my heart at liberty.

So that my way may be in a wide place: because my search has been for your orders.

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

This is my comfort in my affliction,
That Your word has revived me and given me life.

Indignation has taken hold on me, because of the wicked who forsake your law.

This has been mine, that I have kept your precepts.

TETH. Thou hast dealt well with thy servant, O LORD, according unto thy word.

Your worshippers will see me and be glad; because my hope has been in your word.

I know, O LORD, that thy judgments are right, and that thou in faithfulness hast afflicted me.

O let thy merciful kindness be my comfort, according to the promise that thou hast made unto thy servant.

Thy faithfulness is unto all generations: thou hast established the earth, and it abideth.

I will never forget thy precepts: for with them thou hast quickened me.

I am yours, O be my saviour; for my desire has been for your rules.

I have seen that all [human] perfection has its limits [no matter how grand and perfect and noble];
Your commandment is exceedingly broad and extends without limits [into eternity].

Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser than mine enemies: for they are ever with me.

I have not departed from thy judgments: for thou hast taught me.

Thou hast trodden down all them that err from thy statutes: for their deceit is falsehood.

Dross! Thou hast caused to cease All the wicked of the earth; Therefore I have loved Thy testimonies.

Thy testimonies that thou hast commanded are righteous and very faithful.

My zeal has [completely] consumed me,
Because my enemies have forgotten Your words.

My cry has gone up to you; take me out of trouble, and I will be guided by your unchanging word.

Concerning thy testimonies, I have known of old that thou hast founded them for ever.

I find joy at what you have said like one who has discovered a great treasure.

Lord, my hope has been in your salvation; and I have kept your teachings.

My soul has observed your testimonies. I love them exceedingly.

My lips shall utter praise, when thou hast taught me thy statutes.

All my desire has been for your salvation, O Lord; and your law is my delight.

Too long my soul has had its dwelling
With those who hate peace.

Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master,
And as the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress,
So our eyes look to the Lord our God,
Until He is gracious and favorable toward us.

For long enough our soul has had its fill of the derision of the self-confident, the contempt of [the] arrogant.

Blessed be the Lord,
Who has not given us as prey to be torn by their teeth.
