Let the heavens rejoice, and the earth exult, Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof;

Let the field, leap for joy, and all that is therein, Then, shall all the trees of the forest, shout in triumph,

Yahweh, hath become king, Let the earth exult, Let the multitude of coastlands rejoice.

Let all who serve an image, be ashamed, They who boast themselves in things of nought, Bow down unto him, all ye gods.

Let the sea, roar, and the fulness thereof, The world, and they who dwell therein;

Let, the floods, clap their hands, Together, let, the mountains, make a joyful noise,

Yahweh, hath become king, Let the peoples, tremble, He is enthroned on the cherubim, Let the earth, shake.

Let them thank his Name - great and reverend, Holy, is he!

O Yahweh, hear thou my prayer, and let, my cry for help, unto thee, enter in.

Be thy glory, O Yahweh, to times age-abiding, Let Yahweh rejoice in his own works:

He let them turn their heart - To hate his people, To deal treacherously with his servants;

So he lifted up his hand unto them, that he would let them fall in the desert;

Yet they let themselves be bound to Baal-peor, - and did eat sacrifices to the dead:

Let the redeemed of Yahweh say, Whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the adversary;

Let them give thanks to Yahweh for his lovingkindness, and for his wonderful dealings with the sons of men;

Let them give thanks to Yahweh for his lovingkindness, and for his wonderful dealings with the sons of men!

Yea let them sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and recount his works with a shout.

Yea let them extol him in the convocation of the people, and, in the seated company of elders, let them praise him.

Who is wise? then let him observe these things! and diligently consider the lovingkindness of Yahweh.

Set in charge over him, one who is lawless, and let, an accuser, stand at his right hand;

When he is judged, let him go out condemned, and let, his own petition, become a sin;

Let his days become few, his overseership, let another take;

Let his children become fatherless, and his wife a widow;

Let his children, wander about, and beg, Let them be driven out of heir ruins;

Let the creditor take aim at all that he hath, and let strangers prey on the fruit of his toil;

Let him have no one to continue lovingkindness, and there be none to favour his fatherless children;

Let his posterity be for cutting off, In another generation, let their name be wiped out;

Remembered be the iniquity of his fathers against Yahweh, and, the sin of his mother, let it not be wiped out;

Let them be before Yahweh continually, and let the memory of them, be cut off out of the earth.

I pray you! let Israel, say, For, age-abiding, is his lovingkindness.

I pray you! let the house of Aaron, say, For, age-abiding, is his lovingkindness.

I pray you! let them who revere Yahweh, say, For, age-abiding, is his lovingkindness.

[GIMEL] Bestow thy bounties upon thy servant - let me live, That I may observe thy word.

[WAW] And let thy lovingkindness reach me, O Yahweh, thy salvation, according to thy word.

Let thy lovingkindness, I beseech thee, serve to comfort me, according to thy word to thy servant.

Let thy compassions reach me, that I may live, for, thy law, is my dear delight.

Let insolent men, be ashamed, because, by means of falsehood, they have dealt with me perversely, I, will meditate in thy precepts.

Let them who revere thee, turn unto me, even they who know thy testimonies.

Let my heart be thorough in thy statutes, that I may not be ashamed.

Be thou surety for thy servant for good, Let not insolent men oppress me.

My steps, direct thou by thy word, and let no iniquity, have dominion over me.

[TAU] Let my shouting come near before thee, O Yahweh, According to thy word, give me understanding.

Let my supplication come in before thee, According to thy word, deliver me.

Let my soul live, that it may praise thee, So shall thy regulation help me.

I was glad, when they were saying unto me, Unto the house of Yahweh, let us go!

Let all who hate Zion, be ashamed and shrink back:

Let them become like the grass of housetops, which, before it is pulled up, hath withered;

Thy priests, let them be clothed with righteousness, Thy men of lovingkindness, let them shout for joy!

If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, Let my right-hand forget:

Let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth, if I do not remember thee! if I do not lift up Jerusalem above the head of mine own gladness.

As for the head of them who surround me, Let the mischief of their lips cover them:

May there be dropped on them live coals, - Into the fire, may they be let fall, into watery pits from which they shall not rise.

As for the slanderer, let him not be established in the earth, - As for the man of wrongful violence, let misfortune hunt him with thrust upon thrust.

Let not my heart incline to a matter of wrong, that I should busy myself with practices in lawlessness, with men working iniquity, and let me not eat of their dainties.

Let a righteous man smite me - a lovingkindness, that he should correct me, an oil for the head which let not my head refuse! For, yet, even my prayer, shall be in their calamities.

O bring forth, out of prison, my soul, That I may give thanks unto thy Name, - About me, let the righteous gather round, for thou wilt deal bountifully with me.

Let them praise the Name of Yahweh, for, he, commanded, and they were created;

Let them praise the Name of Yahweh, for lofty is his Name alone, His splendour is over earth and heavens.

Let Israel rejoice in him that made him, Let the sons of Zion exult in their king;

Let them praise his Name in the dance, with timbrel and lyre, Let them make music to him.

Let the men of lovingkindness exult as they glory, Let them shout aloud upon their beds:

Let, every breathing thing, praise Yah, Praise ye Yah!

If they say - Come with us, - Let us lie in wait for blood, Let us watch in secret for him who is needlessly innocent;

Let us engulf them, like hades, alive, While in health, like them who are going down to the pit;

My son, mine instruction, do not thou forget, and, my commandment, let thy heart observe;

Lovingkindness and faithfulness, let them not forsake thee, - bind them, upon thy neck, write them upon the tablet of thy heart:

My son, let them not depart from thine eyes, guard thou counsel, and purpose:

So he taught me, and said to me - Let thy heart, lay hold of my words, Keep my commandments and live!

Take fast hold of correction, let her not go, - keep her, for, she, is thy life.

Let them not depart from thine eyes, keep them in the midst of thy heart;

Let, thine eyes, right onward, look, - and, thine eyelashes, point straight before thee.

Let not thy fountains, flow over, abroad, in the streets, dividings of waters:

Let them be for thyself, alone, and not for strangers with thee.

Let thy well-spring be blessed, - and get thy joy from the wife of thy youth: -

A loving hind! a graceful doe! let, her bosom, content thee at all times, and, in her love, mayst thou stray evermore.

Do not covet her beauty, in thy heart, neither let her take thee, by her eyelashes;

Come! let us take our fill of endearments, until morning, let us delight ourselves with caresses;

Let not thy heart, turn aside to her ways, Do not go astray, in her paths.

Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither, as for him that lacketh sense, she saith to him -

Whoso is simple, let him turn aside hither, and, as for him that lacketh sense, she saith to him:

Let a bereaved bear encounter man, rather than a dullard, with his folly!

Correct thy son, because there is hope, yet, not so as to slay him, let thy passion be excited.

A man in a rage, taketh away the penalty, - nevertheless, if thou let him go free, the more stripes must thou add.

The reverence of Yahweh, leadeth to life, satisfied then, let a man remain - let him not be visited by calamity.

Wilt thou let thine eye fly thereupon, when it is nothing? for it will, surely make, itself wings, Like an eagle, will it wing its way across the heavens.

Let not thy heart be envious of sinners, only of the reverence of Yahweh, all day long;

Oh give, my son, thy mind unto me, and let, thine eyes, observe, my ways;

When thine enemy falleth, do not thou rejoice, and, when he stumbleth, let not thy heart exult:

Let another praise thee, and not thine own mouth, a stranger, and not thine own lips.

Let, iron, by iron, become sharp, and let, a man, sharpen the face of his friend.

A man oppressed with a person's blood, unto a pit, shall flee, let them not hold him back.

All his anger, doth a dullard let go, but, a wise man, by keeping it back, stilleth it.

Where there is no vision, a people is let loose, but, he that keepeth instruction, how happy is he!

Let him drink, and forget his poverty, and, his wearying toil, let him remember no more.

Give her of the fruit of her own hands, and let her own works, praise her in the gates.

Be not rash with thy mouth, and, with thy heart, be not in haste to bring forth a word, before God, - for, God, is in the heavens, and, thou, upon the earth, for this cause, let thy words be few.

Do not let thy mouth cause thy flesh to sin, - neither say thou, before the messenger, that it was, a mistake, - wherefore should God be indignant at thy voice, and destroy the work of thy hands?

Though it be not much, let him remember the days of his life, - for, God, beareth witness, by the gladness of his heart.

Continually, let thy garments be white, - and, ointment upon thy bead, let it not be lacking.

But, though, many years, a man live, through them all, let him rejoice; yet let him remember the days of darkness, for many they may be, all that cometh, may be vanity.
