She is brought to the king [in] colorful garments. [The] young women behind her, her attendants, [are] being brought to you.

I will cause your name to be remembered in all generations; therefore peoples will praise you forever and ever.

God [is] in the midst of her; she will not be made to totter. God will help her {at daybreak}.

[He] makes wars cease to the ends of the earth; he breaks [the] bow and cuts off [the] spear. [The] wagons [of war] he burns with fire.

All [you] peoples, clap [your] hands. Shout to God with a voice of rejoicing.

Sing praises [to] God, sing praises. Sing praises to our king, sing praises.

[The] princes of [the] peoples are gathered together [with] the people of Abraham's God. For [the] shields of [the] earth belong to God. He is very exalted.

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

I will incline my ear to a proverb; I will {propound} my riddle on a lyre.

Surely a man cannot redeem a brother. He cannot give to God his ransom

For he sees [that] the wise die, together [with the] fool and brute they perish, and leave their wealth to the next [generation].

Within them [they think] their houses [are] forever, their dwelling places from generation to generation. They {name} [their] lands by their [own] names.

Like sheep they are destined to Sheol; death will shepherd them. But the upright will rule over them in the morning, and their forms [will be for] Sheol to consume, [far from] his lofty abode.

Do not fear when a man becomes rich, when the wealth of his house increases,

Though he congratulated his soul while he was living --and [people] will praise you when you do well for yourself--

it will go to the generation of his fathers. Never will they see light.

The Supreme God, God, Yahweh, has spoken and summoned [the] earth, from [the] rising of [the] sun to its setting.

"Gather to me my loyal ones, [those] who have made a covenant with me by sacrifice."

Do I eat [the] flesh of bulls or drink [the] blood of goats?

Offer to God a thank offering and pay your vows to [the] Most High.

And call me in [the] day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you will glorify me."

But to the wicked God says, "What [right] have you to recite my statutes and {mention my covenant with your mouth},

You give your mouth free rein for evil, and you harness your tongue to deceit.

Now consider this, you who forget God, lest I tear [you] apart, and there [will be] none to deliver.

Be gracious to me, O God, according to your loyal love. According to your abundant mercies, blot out my transgressions.

Behold, you delight [in] truth in the inward parts, and in [the] hidden [parts] you make me to know wisdom.

Do not cast me away from your presence, and do not take your Holy Spirit from me.

Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and with a willing spirit sustain me.

[Then] I will teach transgressors your ways, and sinners will turn back to you.

For you do not delight [in] sacrifice or I would give [it]. [With] a burnt offering you are not pleased.

Do good in your favor toward Zion. Build the walls of Jerusalem.

Why do you boast about evil, O mighty man? The loyal love of God [endures] {continually}.

I will give thanks to you forever, because [of what] you have done, and I will wait on your name, because [it is] good, in the presence of your faithful ones.

God looks down from heaven upon the children of humankind to see whether there is one who has insight, one who seeks God.

Do not evildoers know, [they] who eat my people [as though] they were eating bread? They do not call on God.

There {they are very fearful} [where] no fear had been, because God has scattered the bones of him who encamps [against] you. You have put [them] to shame, because God has rejected them.

I will freely sacrifice to you; I will give thanks [to] your name, O Yahweh, because [it is] good.

Give ear, O God, [to] my prayer, and do not hide yourself from my plea.

Attend to me and answer me. I am restless in my lamenting and I groan,

I would hurry to my refuge from [the] raging wind [and] storm."

Day and night they go around it on its walls, and iniquity and trouble [are] in its midst.

Destruction [is] within it, and oppression and deceit do not depart from its public square.

Let death deceive them. May they descend to Sheol alive, because evil [is] in their home [and] {heart}.

As for me, I will call to God, and Yahweh will save me.

God will hear and answer them, [he] who [is] enthroned from of old, Selah Because they do not change, and they do not fear God.

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

But you, O God, you will bring them down to [the] pit of corruption. [The] men of bloodshed and deceit will not live half their days, but I will trust you.

Be gracious to me, O God, because humankind has trampled me; fighting all the day he oppresses me.

My enemies trample all day, because many [are] attacking me proudly.

God, whose word I praise, God I trust; I do not fear. What can [mere] flesh do to me?

All day they twist my words; all their thoughts [are] against me for evil.

God I trust; I do not fear. What can [mere] humankind do to me?

[My] vows [to you], O God, [are binding] upon me. I will pay thank offerings to you,

Be gracious to me, O God, be gracious to me, because in you my soul takes refuge. In the shadow of your wings I will take refuge until destruction passes by.

I will call to God Most High, to God who accomplishes [things] concerning me.

Because your loyal love [is] high to [the] heavens, and your faithfulness to [the] clouds.

Do you really speak [what is] right [when] silent? [Do] you judge fairly the children of humankind?

[Let them be] like a snail [that] melts away [as] it goes; [like the] stillborn of woman [that] do not see [the] sun.

Without guilt on my part they run and ready themselves. Awake to meet me and see.

And you, Yahweh, God [of] hosts, [are] the God of Israel. Rouse yourself to punish all the nations. Do not be gracious to any [who] treacherously plot evil. Selah

My God of loyal love will meet me; God will cause me to look [in triumph] on my enemies.

Do not kill them, lest my people forget. Make them [to] wander by your power, and bring them down, O Lord, our shield.

Destroy in anger; destroy so they are no more, so that they may know that God [is] ruling in Jacob to the ends of the earth. Selah

O my strength, to you I will give praise, because God [is] my [high] stronghold, my God of loyal love.

Who will bring me to [the] fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?

Through God we will do {valiantly}, and [it is] he [who] will tread down our enemies.

Hear, O God, my cry; attend to my prayer.

From the end of the earth I call to you when my heart grows faint. You will lead me to a rock [that is] higher than I.

You will add days to the days of the king, his years like [those of] {many generations}.

May he live forever in the presence of God. Appoint loyal love and faithfulness to preserve him.

They only plan to thrust [him] down from his high position; they are pleased [with] deception. With their mouths they bless, but {inwardly} they curse. Selah

Do not trust in extortion, and do not put vain [confidence] in robbery. If wealth increases, do not set [your] heart [on it].

Once God has spoken; twice I have heard this: that strength [belongs] to God.

And to you [belongs] loyal love, O Lord, because you will render to each according to his work.

My soul clings to you; your right hand upholds me.

They [who] would {deliver him to the sword} will become a portion for jackals.

Hide me from [the] secret plots of evildoers, from [the] unrest of [those who] do iniquity,

who sharpen their tongue like a sword. They bend [their bow to shoot] their arrows--bitter words,

to shoot from their hiding places [at the] blameless. Suddenly they shoot [at] him and do not fear.

And they [who] would cause him to stumble, their [own] tongue [will be] against them. All who gaze on them will shake.

Praise awaits you, O God, in Zion, and to you [the] vow shall be fulfilled.

O [you who] hear prayer, to you all flesh will come.

Shout joyfully to God, all the earth.

Say to God, "How awesome are your works! Because of the greatness of your strength, your enemies will cringe before you.

All the earth will bow in worship to you, and sing [praise] to you. They will sing [the praise of] your name." Selah

[He] rules by his might forever; his eyes keep watch on the nations. Do not let the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah

Bless our God, O peoples, and cause the sound of his praise to be heard,

the one who has kept our soul among the living, and has not allowed our foot to slip.

You let men ride over our heads. We went through fire and through water, but you have brought us out to the place of abundance.

I will come into your house with burnt offerings. I will pay to you my vows

Burnt offerings of fat animals I will offer to you, with [the] smoke of rams. I will do cattle with rams. Selah

I called to him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue.

However, God has listened; he has attended to the sound of my prayer.

May God be gracious to us and bless us. May he cause his face to shine toward us, Selah

Sing to God, sing praises to his name. Lift up [a song] to [the] rider on the clouds--his name is Yah-- and rejoice before him.

A father to orphans and a judge for widows [is] God in his holy habitation.

You caused abundant rain to fall, O God. When your inheritance was weary you revived it.

Why do you look with hostility, O many-peaked mountains? This mountain God desires for his dwelling. Yes, Yahweh will abide [in it] forever.

Our God [is] a God of deliverances, and to [the] Yahweh the Lord belong escapes from death.

so that your foot may shatter [them] bloody [for] the tongues of your dogs [to have] their share from [the] enemies."
