Deep calls to deep at the noise of your waterfalls. All your waves and your billows have swept over me.

As with a sword in my bones, my adversaries reproach me, while they continually ask me, "Where is your God?"

Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God. For I shall still praise him, the saving help of my countenance, and my God.

For you are the God of my strength. Why have you rejected me? Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

Oh, send out your light and your truth. Let them lead me. Let them bring me to your holy hill, To your tents.

Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God. For I shall still praise him: my Savior, my helper, and my God.

We have heard with our ears, God; our fathers have told us, what work you did in their days, in the days of old.

You drove out the nations with your hand, but you planted them. You afflicted the peoples, but you spread them abroad.

For they did not get the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them; but your right hand, and your arm, and the light of your face, because you were favorable to them.

You are my King, God. Command victories for Jacob.

Through you we will push back our adversaries. Through your name we will trample down those who rise up against us.

But you have saved us from our adversaries, and have shamed those who hate us.

In God we have made our boast all day long, we will give thanks to your name forever. Selah.

But now you rejected us, and brought us to dishonor, and do not go out with our armies.

You sell your people for nothing, and have gained nothing from their sale.

You make us a reproach to our neighbors, a scoffing and a derision to those who are around us.

All this has come on us, yet have we not forgotten you, Neither have we been false to your covenant.

Our heart has not turned back, neither have our steps strayed from your path,

If we have forgotten the name of our God, or spread forth our hands to a strange god;

Yes, for your sake we are killed all day long. We are regarded as sheep for the slaughter.

Why do you hide your face, and forget our affliction and our oppression?

For our soul is bowed down to the dust. Our body cleaves to the earth.

Rise up to help us. Redeem us for your loving kindness' sake.

You are the most excellent of the sons of men. Grace has anointed your lips, therefore God has blessed you forever.

Gird your sword on your thigh, mighty one: your splendor and your majesty.

In your majesty ride on victoriously on behalf of truth, humility, and righteousness. Let your right hand display awesome deeds.

Your arrows are sharp. The nations fall under you, with arrows in the heart of the king's enemies.

Your throne, God, is forever and ever. A scepter of equity is the scepter of your kingdom.

You have loved righteousness, and hated wickedness. Therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your fellows.

All your garments smell like myrrh, aloes, and cassia. Out of ivory palaces stringed instruments have made you glad.

Kings' daughters are among your honorable women. At your right hand the queen stands in gold of Ophir.

Listen, daughter, consider, and turn your ear. Forget your own people, and also your father's house.

So the king will desire your beauty, honor him, for he is your lord.

The daughter of Tyre comes with a gift. The rich among the people entreat your favor.

Your sons will take the place of your fathers. You shall make them princes in all the earth.

I will make your name to be remembered in all generations. Therefore the peoples shall give you thanks forever and ever.

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

Therefore we won't be afraid, though the earth changes, though the mountains are shaken into the heart of the seas;

though its waters roar and are troubled, though the mountains tremble with their swelling. Selah.

The nations raged. The kingdoms were moved. He lifted his voice, and the earth melted.

The LORD of hosts is with us. The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.

The LORD of hosts is with us. The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.

Oh clap your hands, all you nations. Shout to God with the voice of triumph.

He subdues nations under us, and peoples under our feet.

He chooses our inheritance for us, the glory of Jacob whom he loved. Selah.

Sing praise to God, sing praises. Sing praises to our King, sing praises.

The princes of the peoples are gathered together, the people of the God of Abraham. For the shields of the earth belong to God. He is greatly exalted.

Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised, in the city of our God, in his holy mountain.

They saw it, then they were amazed. They were dismayed. They hurried away.

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

We have thought about your loving kindness, God, in the midst of your temple.

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

Let Mount Zion be glad. Let the daughters of Judah rejoice, Because of your judgments.

For this God is our God forever and ever. He will be our guide even to death.

I will incline my ear to a proverb. I will open my riddle on the harp.

This is the destiny of those who are foolish, and of those who approve their sayings. Selah.

They are appointed as a flock for Sheol. Death shall be their shepherd. The upright shall have dominion over them in the morning. Their beauty shall decay in Sheol, far from their mansion.

Our God comes, and does not keep silent. A fire devours before him. It is very stormy around him.

"Hear, my people, and I will speak; Israel, and I will testify against you. I am God, your God.

I do not rebuke you for your sacrifices. Your burnt offerings are continually before me.

I have no need for a bull from your stall, nor male goats from your pens.

I know all the birds of the mountains. The wild animals of the field are mine.

If I were hungry, I would not tell you, for the world is mine, and all that is in it.

Will I eat the flesh of bulls, or drink the blood of goats?

Offer to God the sacrifice of thanksgiving. Pay your vows to the Most High.

But to the wicked God says, "What right do you have to declare my statutes, that you have taken my covenant on your lips,

"You give your mouth to evil. Your tongue frames deceit.

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

You have done these things, and I kept silent. You thought that I was just like you. I will rebuke you, and accuse you in front of your eyes.

Have mercy on me, God, according to your loving kindness. According to the multitude of your tender mercies, blot out my transgressions.

Against you, and you only, have I sinned, and done that which is evil in your sight; that you may be proved right when you speak, and justified when you judge.

Hide your face from my sins, and blot out all of my iniquities.

Do not throw me from your presence, and do not take your holy Spirit from me.

Restore to me the joy of your salvation. Uphold me with a willing spirit.

Then I will teach transgressors your ways. Sinners shall be converted to you.

Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, the God of my salvation. My tongue shall sing aloud of your righteousness.

Lord, open my lips. My mouth shall declare your praise.

For you do not delight in sacrifice, or else I would give it. You have no pleasure in burnt offering.

The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit. A broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise.

Do well in your good pleasure to Zion. Build the walls of Jerusalem.

Then you will delight in the sacrifices of righteousness, in burnt offerings and in whole burnt offerings. Then they will offer bulls on your altar.

Your tongue plots destruction, like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.

God will likewise destroy you forever. He will take you up, and pluck you out of your tent, and root you out of the land of the living. Selah.

I will give you thanks forever, because you have done it. I will hope in your name, for it is good, in the presence of your holy ones.

The fool has said in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, and have done abominable iniquity. There is no one who does good.

God looks down from heaven on the children of men, to see if there are any who understood, who seek after God.

There they were in great fear, where no fear was, for God has scattered the bones of him who encamps against you. You have put them to shame, because God has rejected them.

Save me, God, by your name. Vindicate me in your might.

He will repay the evil to my enemies. Destroy them in your truth.

With a free will offering, I will sacrifice to you. I will give thanks to your name, LORD, for it is good.

Day and night they prowl around on its walls. Malice and abuse are also within her.

Destructive forces are within her. Threats and lies do not depart from her streets.

He has redeemed my soul in peace from the battle that was against me, although there are many who oppose me.

His mouth was smooth as butter, but his heart was war. His words were softer than oil, yet they were drawn swords.

Cast your burden on the LORD, and he will sustain you. He will never allow the righteous to be moved.

My enemies want to swallow me up all day long, for they are many who fight proudly against me.

All day long they twist my words. All their thoughts are against me for evil.

They conspire and lurk, watching my steps, they are eager to take my life.

You number my wanderings. You put my tears into your bottle. Aren't they in your book?

Your vows are on me, God. I will give thank offerings to you.
