Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favor my righteous cause: yes, let them say continually, Let the LORD be magnified, who hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant.

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David the servant of the LORD. The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, that there is no fear of God before his eyes.

For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity is found to be hateful.

For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light.

For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.

Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.

For evil doers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth.

For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yes, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be.

The Lord will laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming.

For the arms of the wicked shall be broken: but the LORD upholdeth the righteous.

The LORD knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall be for ever.

For such as are blessed by him shall inherit the earth; and they that are cursed by him shall be cut off.

Though he should fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand.

Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore.

For the LORD loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints; they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.

The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever.

Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the end of that man is peace.

For thy arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand falleth heavy upon me.

For my iniquities have gone over my head: as a heavy burden they are too heavy for me.

For my loins are filled with a lothsome disease: and there is no soundness in my flesh.

My heart panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of my eyes, that also is gone from me.

They also that seek after my life lay snares for me: and they that seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and imagine deceits all the day long.

For in thee, O LORD, do I hope: thou wilt hear, O Lord my God.

For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.

For I am ready to halt, and my sorrow is continually before me.

For I will declare my iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin.

They also that render evil for good are my adversaries; because I follow the thing that is good.

Forsake me not, O LORD: O my God, be not far from me.

My heart was hot within me, while I was musing the fire burned: then I spoke with my tongue.

And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope is in thee.

When thou with rebukes dost correct man for iniquity, thou makest his beauty to consume away like a moth: surely every man is vanity. Selah.

Hear my prayer, O LORD, and give ear to my cry; hold not thy peace at my tears: for I am a stranger with thee, and a sojourner, as all my fathers were.

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. I waited patiently for the LORD; and he inclined to me, and heard my cry.

And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise to our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.

For innumerable evils have encompassed me: my iniquities have taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the hairs of my head: therefore my heart faileth me.

Let them be desolate for a reward of their shame that say to me, Aha, aha.

I said, LORD, be merciful to me: heal my soul; for I have sinned against thee.

And as for me, thou upholdest me in my integrity, and settest me before thy face for ever.

To the chief Musician, Maschil, for the sons of Korah. As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so my soul panteth after thee, O God.

My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I come and appear before God?

When I remember these things, I pour out my soul in me: for I had gone with the multitude, I went with them to the house of God, with the voice of joy and praise, with a multitude that kept holy-day.

Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance.

Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.

For thou art the God of my strength: why dost thou cast me off? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.

To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, Maschil. We have heard with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, what work thou didst in their days, in the times of old.

For they obtained not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them: but thy right hand, and thy arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favor to them.

Thou art my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob.

For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.

In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy name for ever. Selah.

Thou makest us to turn back from the enemy: and they who hate us plunder for themselves.

Thou hast given us like sheep appointed for food; and hast scattered us among the heathen.

Thou sellest thy people for naught, and dost not increase thy wealth by their price.

For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and avenger.

Will not God search out this? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.

Yes, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.

Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, cast us not off for ever.

For our soul is bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth to the earth.

Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy mercies' sake.

To the chief Musician upon Shoshannim, for the sons of Korah, Maschil, A Song of loves. My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made concerning the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready writer.

Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.

Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the scepter of thy kingdom is a scepter of justice.

So shall the king greatly desire thy beauty: for he is thy lord; and worship thou him.

I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations: therefore shall the people praise thee for ever and ever.

To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, A Song upon Alamoth. God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

Therefore will we not fear, though the earth shall be removed, and though the mountains shall be carried into the midst of the sea;

He maketh wars to cease to the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear asunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire.

To the chief Musician, A Psalm for the sons of Korah. O clap your hands, all ye people; shout to God with the voice of triumph.

For the LORD most high is terrible; he is a great King over all the earth.

He shall choose our inheritance for us, the excellence of Jacob whom he loved. Selah.

For God is the King of all the earth: sing ye praises with understanding.

The princes of the people are assembled, even the people of the God of Abraham: for the shields of the earth belong to God: he is greatly exalted.

A Song and Psalm for the sons of Korah. Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in the mountain of his holiness.

Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, on the sides of the north, the city of the great King.

God is known in her palaces for a refuge.

For lo, the kings were assembled, they passed by together.

Fear took hold upon them there, and pain, as of a woman in travail.

As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God: God will establish it for ever. Selah.

For this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide even to death.

To the chief Musician, A Psalm for the sons of Korah. Hear this, all ye people; give ear, all ye inhabitants of the world:

Why should I fear in the days of evil, when the iniquity of my heels shall encompass me?

None of them can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him:

(For the redemption of their soul is precious, and it ceaseth for ever:)

That he should still live for ever, and not see corruption.

For he seeth that wise men die, likewise the fool and the brutish person perish, and leave their wealth to others.

Their inward thought is, that their houses shall continue for ever, and their dwelling places to all generations; they call their lands after their own names.

But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall receive me. Selah.

For when he dieth he shall carry nothing away: his glory shall not descend after him.

Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence: a fire shall devour before him, and it shall be very tempestuous around him.

And the heavens shall declare his righteousness: for God is judge himself. Selah.

I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices or thy burnt-offerings, to have been continually before me.

For every beast of the forest is mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills.

If I were hungry, I would not tell thee: for the world is mine, and the fullness thereof.

For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.

Restore to me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.

For thou desirest not sacrifice: else would I give it: thou delightest not in burnt-offering.

God shall likewise destroy thee for ever, he shall take thee away, and pluck thee out of thy dwelling-place, and root thee out of the land of the living. Selah.

The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him:

But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God: I trust in the mercy of God for ever and ever.

I will praise thee for ever, because thou hast done it: and I will wait on thy name; for it is good before thy saints.
