And hide not thy face from thy servant; for I am in trouble: hear me speedily.

Darkened are their eyes from seeing, And their loins continually shake Thou.

Let them fall from one wickedness to another, and not come into thy righteousness.

May their names be deleted from the scroll of the living! Do not let their names be listed with the godly!

O my God, cause me to escape From the hand of the wicked, From the hand of the perverse and violent.

For you are my hope, O Lord God; I have had faith in you from the time when I was young.

You have been my support from the day of my birth; you took me out of my mother's body; my praise will be ever of you.

O God, be not far from me; O my God, come quickly to my help.

O God, you have been my teacher from the time when I was young; and I have been talking of your works of wonder even till now.

You, who have sent great and bitter troubles on me, will give me life again, lifting me up from the deep waters of the underworld.

They shall fear thee as long as sun and moon endure, from generation to generation.

Let his kingdom be from sea to sea, from the River to the ends of the earth.

Because he Rescueth, The needy from the rich, The oppressed, who hath no helper;

He will keep their souls free from evil designs and violent attacks; and their blood will be of value in his eyes.

May he have long life, and may gold from Sheba be given to him: may prayers be made for him at all times; may blessings be on him every day.

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.

But as for me, my feet had almost gone from under me; I was near to slipping;

They are free from burdens of men, neither are they plagued like other men.

Their eye hath come out from fat. The imaginations of the heart transgressed;

Their thoughts are deep with evil designs; their talk from their seats of power is of cruel acts.

They set their mouth against the heavens,
And their tongue swaggers through the earth.

I kept my heart pure for nothing and kept my hands clean from guilt.

How have they become a desolation as in a moment, They have been ended -- consumed from terrors.

As a dream from awakening, O Lord, In awaking, their image Thou despisest.

Who to me in the heavens? and from thee I desired nothing in the earth.

For those who are far away from you will come to destruction: you will put an end to all those who have not kept faith with you.

Of God, why have you put us away from you for ever? why is the fire of your wrath smoking against the sheep who are your care?

Why dost Thou turn back Thy hand, Even Thy right hand? From the midst of Thy bosom remove it.

For from the past God is my King, working salvation in the earth.

Arise, O God, plead Thy plea, Remember Thy reproach from a fool all the day.

Let not your horn be lifted up: let no more words of pride come from your outstretched necks.

For honour does not come from the east, or from the west, or uplifting from the south;

For in the hand of the Lord is a cup, and the wine is red; it is well mixed, overflowing from his hand: he will make all the sinners of the earth take of it, even to the last drop.

Radiant you [are], majestic, from [the] mountains of prey.

From Thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, Both rider and horse have been fast asleep.

Thou art feared, thou: and who shall stand before thee from the time of thine anger?

From heaven you gave your decision; the earth, in its fear, gave no sound,

You keep my eyes from sleep; I am so troubled that no words come.

I think about [the] days from long ago, [the] years of ancient times.

Hath his loving-kindness ceased for ever? hath his word come to an end from generation to generation?

I will remember the deeds of Yah. Surely I will remember your wonders from long ago.

Your way, O God, is holy [far from sin and guilt].
What god is great like our God?

I will offer a parable [with] my mouth. I will pour out riddles from long ago,

We will not keep them secret from our children; we will make clear to the coming generation the praises of the Lord and his strength, and the great works of wonder which he has done.

He led them with a cloud during the day, and during the night with light from the fire.

He caused rocks to split in the wilderness and provided drink abundantly as [from the] depths.

And bringeth out streams from a rock, And causeth waters to come down as rivers.

And they went on sinning against him even more, turning away from the Most High in the waste land;

Though he had commanded the clouds from above, and opened the doors of heaven,

He rained down manna on them to eat, and gave them food from the sky.

He sent an east wind from heaven, driving on the south wind by his power.

But they were not turned from their desires; and while the food was still in their mouths,

They did not keep in mind the work of his hand, or the day when he took them from the power of their haters;

So that their rivers were turned to blood, and they were not able to get drink from their streams.

He sendeth among them the beetle, and it consumeth them, And the frog, and it destroyeth them,

He let his wrath have its way; he did not keep back their soul from death, but gave their life to disease.

And casteth out nations from before them, And causeth them to fall in the line of inheritance, And causeth the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tents,

When God heard, He was angry, and turned away from Israel;

So that he went away from the holy place in Shiloh, the tent which he had put among men;

His priests [Hophni and Phinehas] fell by the sword,
And His widows could not weep.

Then was the Lord like one awaking from sleep, and like a strong man crying out because of wine.

He took David to be his servant, taking him from the place of the flocks;

From looking after the sheep which were giving milk, he took him to give food to Jacob his people, and to Israel his heritage.

And we, thy people and the sheep of thy pasture, will give thanks unto thee for ever; we will shew forth thy praise from generation to generation.

Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh, let your strength be awake from sleep, and come as our salvation.

You uprooted a vine from Egypt; you drove out [the] nations and planted it.

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

The boar from the forest tears it
and creatures of the field feed on it.

Return, God of Hosts.
Look down from heaven and see;
take care of this vine,

Burnt with fire -- cut down, From the rebuke of Thy face they perish.

Then we will not turn away from You;
revive us, and we will call on Your name.

“I relieved his shoulder from the burden;
his hands were freed from carrying the basket.

You called out in distress, and I rescued you;
I answered you from the thundercloud.
I tested you at the waters of Meribah.Selah

I am Yahweh your God,
who brought you up from the land of Egypt.
Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it.

But He would feed Israel with the best wheat.
“I would satisfy you with honey from the rock.”

Rescue the poor and needy;
save them from the power of the wicked.”

They know not, neither do they understand; They walk to and fro in darkness: All the foundations of the earth are shaken.

They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.

They go from strength to strength;
each appears before God in Zion.

For the Lord God is a sun and shield.
The Lord gives grace and glory;
He does not withhold the good
from those who live with integrity.

O Lord, You have [at last] shown favor to Your land [of Canaan];
You have restored [from Babylon] the captives of Jacob (Israel).

You withdrew all Your fury;
You turned from Your burning anger.

Turn us then, O God our Saviour, and let thine anger cease from us.

Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? wilt thou draw out thine anger from generation to generation?

Truth will spring up from the earth,
and righteousness will look down from heaven.

For Your faithful love for me is great,
and You deliver my life from the depths of Sheol.

The Lord loves the gates of Zion
More than all the dwellings of Jacob (Israel).

abandoned among the dead.
I am like the slain lying in the grave,
whom You no longer remember,
and who are cut off from Your care.

You have distanced my friends from me;
You have made me repulsive to them.
I am shut in and cannot go out.

My eyes are worn out from crying.
Lord, I cry out to You all day long;
I spread out my hands to You.

Lord, why do You reject me?
Why do You hide Your face from me?

From my youth,
I have been afflicted and near death.
I suffer Your horrors; I am desperate.

They surround me like water all day long;
they close in on me from every side.

You have distanced loved one and neighbor from me;
darkness is my only friend.

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

'I will establish your descendants forever, and I will build up your throne {from generation to generation}.'" Selah

You once spoke in a vision to Your loyal ones
and said: “I have granted help to a warrior;
I have exalted one chosen from the people.

The enemy shall not exact from him, Nor the son of wickedness afflict him.

And I will shatter, from before him, his adversaries, And, them who hate him, will I smite;

But I will not withdraw
My faithful love from him
or betray My faithfulness.
