Haven't you rejected us, God? You do not go forth, God, with our armies.

Through God, we will do valiantly. For it is he who will trample down our enemies.

God of my praise, do not remain silent,

for they have opened the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of deceit against me. They have spoken to me with a lying tongue.

Let there be none to extend kindness to him, neither let there be any to have pity on his fatherless children.

Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered by the LORD. Do not let the sin of his mother be blotted out.

because he did not remember to show kindness, but persecuted the poor and needy man, the broken in heart, to kill them.

Yes, he loved cursing, and it came to him. He did not delight in blessing, and it was far from him.

Let it be to him as the clothing with which he covers himself, for the belt that is always around him.

I have also become a reproach to them. When they see me, they shake their head.

Help me, LORD, my God. Save me according to your loving kindness;

I will give great thanks to the LORD with my mouth. Yes, I will praise him among the multitude.

For he will stand at the right hand of the needy, to save him from those who judge his soul.

The LORD says to my Lord, "Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool for your feet."

Your people offer themselves willingly in the day of your power, in holy array. Out of the womb of the morning, you have the dew of your youth.

The Lord is at your right hand. He will crush kings in the day of his wrath.

Praise the LORD. I will give thanks to the LORD with my whole heart, in the council of the upright, and in the congregation.

He has caused his wonderful works to be remembered. The LORD is gracious and merciful.

He has given food to those who fear him. He always remembers his covenant.

He has sent redemption to his people. He has ordained his covenant forever. His name is holy and awesome.

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom. All those who do his work have a good understanding. His praise endures forever.

He has dispersed, he has given to the poor. His righteousness endures forever. His horn will be exalted with honor.

From the rising of the sun to the going down of the same, The LORD's name is to be praised.

Who stoops down to see in heaven and in the earth?

Not to us, LORD, not to us, but to your name give glory, for your loving kindness, and for your truth's sake.

They have mouths, but they do not speak. They have eyes, but they do not see.

They have ears, but they do not hear. They have noses, but they do not smell.

They have hands, but they do not feel. They have feet, but they do not walk, neither do they speak through their throat.

The heavens are the heavens of the LORD; but the earth has he given to the children of men.

The dead do not praise the LORD, neither any who go down into silence;

I love the LORD, because he listens to my voice, and my cries for mercy.

Because he has turned his ear to me, therefore I will call on him as long as I live.

Return to your rest, my soul, for the LORD has dealt bountifully with you.

What will I give to the LORD for all his benefits toward me?

I will pay my vows to the LORD, yes, in the presence of all his people.

I will offer to you the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call on the name of the LORD.

I will pay my vows to the LORD, yes, in the presence of all his people,

Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.

The LORD is on my side. I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?

It is better to take refuge in the LORD, than to put confidence in man.

It is better to take refuge in the LORD, than to put confidence in princes.

You pushed me back hard, to make me fall, but the LORD helped me.

I will not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.

The LORD has punished me severely, but he has not given me over to death.

Open to me the gates of righteousness. I will enter into them and praise the LORD.

I will give thanks to you, for you have answered me, and have become my salvation.

This is the day that the LORD has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it.

The LORD is God, and he has given us light. Bind the sacrifice with cords, even to the horns of the altar.

You are my God, and I will give thanks to you. You are my God, I will exalt you.

Oh give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.

ALEPH. Blessed are those whose ways are blameless, who walk according to the law of the LORD.

The ropes of the wicked bind me, but I won't forget your Law.

At midnight I will rise to give thanks to you, because of your righteous ordinances.

TET. Do good to your servant, according to your word, LORD.

You are good, and do good. Teach me your statutes.

The Law you have spoken is better to me than thousands of pieces of gold and silver.

Please let your loving kindness be for my comfort, according to your word to your servant.

Let your tender mercies come to me, that I may live; for your Law is my delight.

Let those who fear you turn to me. They will know your statutes.

For I have become like a wineskin in the smoke. I do not forget your statutes.

The proud have dug pits for me, contrary to your Law.

Preserve my life according to your loving kindness, so I will obey the statutes of your mouth.

Your faithfulness is to all generations. You have established the earth, and it remains.

Your laws remain to this day, for all things serve you.

The wicked have waited for me, to destroy me. I will consider your statutes.

I have seen a limit to all perfection, but your commands are boundless.

MEM. How I love your Law. It is my meditation all day.

How sweet are your promises to my taste, more than honey to my mouth.

NUN. Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light for my path.

I have set my heart to perform your statutes forever, even to the end.

Uphold me according to your word, that I may live. Let me not be ashamed of my hope.

AYIN. I have done what is just and righteous. Do not leave me to my oppressors.

Ensure your servant's well-being. Do not let the proud oppress me.

Deal with your servant according to your loving kindness. Teach me your statutes.

It is time to act, LORD, for they break your Law.
