Thou shalt show us wonderful things in thy righteousness, O God of our salvation, thou that art the hope of all the ends of the earth, and of them that remain in the broad sea -

They that dwell in the uttermost parts of the earth shall be afraid at thy tokens; thou makest both the morning and evening stars to praise thee.

The folds shall be full of sheep; the valleys also shall stand so thick with corn, that they shall laugh and sing.

He turned the sea into dry land, so that they went through the water on foot; there did we rejoice thereof.

O come hither and hearken, all ye that fear God; and I will tell you what he hath done for my soul.

That we may know thy way upon earth, thy saving health among all heathen.

{To the Chanter, a Psalm and song of David} Let God arise, and let his enemies be scattered; let them also that hate him flee before him.

O sing unto God, sing praises to his name; magnify him that rideth upon the heavens, as it were upon a horse. Praise him in his name Jah, and rejoice before him.

He is the God that maketh men to be of one mind in a house, and bringeth the prisoners out of captivity, but letteth the renegades continue in scarceness.

Though ye have lain among the sheep-folds, yet shall ye be as the wings of a dove that is covered with silver wings, and her feathers like gold.

Thou art gone up on high; thou hast led captivity captive, and received gifts for men, yea, even for thine enemies, that the LORD God might dwell among them.

that thy foot may be dipped in the blood of thine enemies, and that thy dogs may lick it up."

Thy God hath committed strength unto thee; establish the thing, O God, that thou hast wrought in us,

Reprove the beasts among the reeds, the heap of bulls with the calves, those that drive for money. O scatter thou the people that delight in war.

who sitteth in the heavens over all from the beginning. Lo, he doth send out his voice, yea and that a mighty voice.

I stick fast in the deep mire, where no ground is; I am come into deep waters, so that the floods run over me.

They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head; they that are mine enemies, and would destroy me guiltless, are mighty. I paid them the things that I never took.

Let not them that trust in thee, O LORD God of hosts, be ashamed for my cause; let not those that seek thee, be confounded through me, O LORD God of Israel.

For the zeal of thine house hath even eaten me; and the rebukes of them that rebuked thee is fallen upon me.

I wept, and chastened myself with fasting, and that was turned to my reproof.

They that sit in the gate speak against me, and the drunkards make songs upon me.

Take me out of the mire, that I sink not; Oh let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.

Let their table be made a snare to take themselves withal; and let the things that should have been for their wealth be unto them an occasion of falling.

Let their eyes be blinded, that they see not; and ever bow down their backs.

This shall please the LORD better than a bullock, that hath horns and hoofs.

O consider this and be glad, ye that be in adversity: seek after God and your soul shall live.

Let heaven and earth praise him, the sea, and all that moveth therein.

For God will save Zion, and build the cities of Judah, that men may dwell there, and have it in possession.

The seed of his servants shall inherit it, and they that love his name shall dwell therein.

Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek after my soul; let them be turned backward, and put to confusion that wish me evil.

Let them soon be brought to shame, that cry over me, "There! there!"

But let all those that seek thee be joyful and glad in thee, and let all such as delight in thy salvation say always, "The LORD be praised."

For thou, O LORD God, art the thing that I long for; thou art my hope even from my youth.

I have leaned upon thee ever since I was born; thou art he that took me out of my mother's womb, therefore is my praise always of thee.

O let my mouth be filled with thy praise, that I may sing of thy glory and honour all the day long.

For mine enemies speak against me; and they that lay wait for my soul take their counsel together,

Let them be confounded and perish that are against my soul; let them be covered with shame and dishonour, that seek to do me evil.

Forsake me not, O God, in mine old age, when I am grey-headed, until I have showed thy strength unto children's children, and thy power to all them that are yet for to come.

Thy righteousness, O God, is very high, and great things are they that thou hast done; O God, who is like unto thee?

My tongue talketh of thy righteousness, all the day long; for they are confounded and brought unto shame that seek to do me evil.

He shall come down like the rain into a fleece of wool, even as the drops that water the earth.

They that dwell in the wilderness shall kneel before him, and his enemies shall lick the dust.

For he shall deliver the poor when he crieth, and the needy that hath no help.

And this is the cause that they be so puffed up in pride, and overwhelmed with cruelty and unrighteousness.

Namely, how thou hast set them in a slippery places, that thou mayest cast them down headlong and destroy them.

Whom have I in heaven but thee? There is nothing upon earth, that I desire in comparison of thee.

For lo, they that forsake thee shall perish; thou destroyest all them that commit fornication against thee.

Lift up thy feet, that thou mayest utterly destroy every enemy which hath done evil in thy sanctuary.

He that hewed timber afore out of the thick trees was known to bring it to an excellent work.

We see not our tokens. There is not one prophet more; no, not one is there among us, that understandeth any more.

But God is my King of old; the help that is done upon earth, he doeth it himself.

Forget not the voice of thine enemies; for the presumption of them that hate thee, increaseth ever more and more.

{To the Chanter, Destroy Not, a Psalm and song of Asaph} Unto thee, O God, do we give thanks; yea, unto thee do we give thanks. Thy Name also is so nigh; and that do thy wondrous works declare.

The earth is weak, and all that is therein; but I bear up her pillars. Selah.

Thou art of more honour and might than the hills of the robbers.

yea, when God ariseth to give judgment, and to help all them that be in adversity upon earth. Selah.

Look what ye promise unto the LORD your God: see that ye keep it, all ye that be round about him; bring presents unto him that ought to be feared.

Thou heldest mine eyes waking, I was so feeble, that I could not speak.

Then remembered I the times of old, and the years that were past.

At the last, I came to this point, that I thought, "O why art thou so foolish? the righthand of the most highest can change all!"

Thou art the God that doest wonders, and hast declared thy power among the people.

that we should not hide them from the children of the generations to come but to show the honour of the LORD, his mighty and wonderful works that he hath done.

that their posterity might know it, and the children which were yet unborn, to the intent that when they came up, they might show their children the same;

that they also might put their trust in God, and not to forget what he had done, but to keep his commandments.

And not to be as their forefathers, a faithless and stubborn generation, a generation that set not their heart aright, and whose spirit was not true toward God.

They forgot what he had done, and the wonderful works that he had showed for them.

He brought waters out of the stony rock, so that it gushed out like the rivers.

Lo, he smote the stony rock, that the watery streams gushed out, and the streams flowed withal: but how can he give bread and provide flesh for his people?"

And they remembered that God was their strength, and that the high God was their redeemer.

But he was so merciful, that he forgave their misdeeds, and destroyed them not. Yea, many a time turned he his wrath away, and would not suffer his whole displeasure to arise.

For he considered that they were but flesh; even a wind that passeth away, and cometh not again.

How he turned their waters into blood, so that they might not drink of the rivers;

He brought them out safely, that they should not fear, and overwhelmed their enemies with the sea.

so that he forsook the Tabernacle in Shiloh, even the tent that he had pitched among men.

And there he built his temple on high, and laid the foundation of it like the ground, that it might perpetually endure.

As he was following the ewes great with young, he took him, that he might feed Jacob his people, and Israel his inheritance.

We are become an open shame unto our enemies, a very scorn and derision unto them that are round about us.

Pour out thine indignation upon the heathen that know thee not, and upon the kingdoms that call not upon thy name.

O remember not our old sins, but have mercy upon us, and that soon; for we are come to great misery.

Wherefore shall the heathen say, "Where is now their God?" O let the vengeance of thy servant's blood that is shed, be openly showed upon the heathen in our sight.

O let the sorrowful sighing of the prisoners come before thee; and according unto the power of thy arm, preserve those that are appointed to die.

So we, that be the people and sheep of thy pasture, shall give thee thanks forever, and will always be showing forth thy praise, from generation to generation.

{To the Chanter, upon Shoshannim, a Psalm of Asaph} Hear, O thou shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Jacob like a flock of sheep; show thyself, thou that sittest upon the Cherubim.

Thou madest room for it, and caused it to take root, so that it filled the land.

Why hast thou then broken down her hedge, that all they which go by, pluck off her grapes?

and the place of the vineyard that thy righthand hath planted, and the son whom thou madest so strong for thyself.

O that my people would obey me! For if Israel would walk in my ways,

Defend the poor and fatherless, see that such as be in need and necessity have right.

For lo, thine enemies make a murmuring; and they that hate thee, lift up their head.

"Come," say they, "let us root them out, that they be no more a people, and that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance."

Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek: the Philistines with them that dwell at Tyre.

Like as a fire that burneth up the wood, and as the flame that consumeth the mountains.

Make their faces ashamed, O LORD, that they may seek thy name.

And they shall know that thou, whose name is Jehovah, art only the most highest over all the earth.

Blessed are they that dwell in thy house; they will be always praising thee. Selah.

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

For the LORD God is a light and defense; the LORD will give grace and worship, and no good thing shall he withhold from them that live a godly life.

O LORD God of Hosts, blessed is the man that putteth his trust in thee.

Wilt thou not turn again, and quicken us, that thy people may rejoice in thee?

I will hearken what the LORD God will say concerning me; for he shall speak peace unto his people, and to his saints, that they turn not themselves unto foolishness.
