The earth is Yahweh's, with its fullness, [the] world and those who live in it,

Who may ascend [the] mountain of Yahweh? And who may stand in his holy place?

He who is innocent of hands and pure of heart, who does not lift up his soul to falseness, and does not swear deceitfully.

He will receive blessing from Yahweh, and justice from the God of his salvation.

Such [is the] sort of those who seek him, those who seek your face, even Jacob. Selah

Lift up your heads, O gates, and rise up, O ancient doorways, that the king of glory may enter.

Who [is] the king of glory? Yahweh, strong and mighty; Yahweh, mighty in war!

Lift up your heads, O gates, and lift up, O ancient doorways, that the king of glory may enter.

Who is the king of glory? Yahweh of hosts, He [is] the king of glory! Selah

To you, O Yahweh, I lift up my soul.

O my God, I trust you; let me not be put to shame. Do not let my enemies exult over me.

Indeed, none who wait for you should be put to shame. Those who betray without cause should be put to shame.

Make me know your ways, O Yahweh. Teach me your paths.

Cause me to walk in your truth and teach me, because you [are] the God of my salvation. I await you {all day long}.

Remember your compassion, O Yahweh, and your acts of loyal love, because they [are] from of old.

Do not remember the sins of my youth or my transgressions. According to your loyal love remember me [if] you [will], for the sake of your goodness, O Yahweh.

Good and right [is] Yahweh; therefore he instructs sinners in the way.

He causes [the] humble to walk in justice, and teaches [the] humble his way.

All the paths of Yahweh [are] loyal love and faithfulness for those who keep his covenant and statutes.

Also, for the sake of your name, O Yahweh, forgive my sin, because it [is] great.

Who [is] the man fearing Yahweh? He will instruct him in [the] way he should choose.

Intimate fellowship with Yahweh [is] for those who fear him, and [he] makes known his covenant to them.

My eyes [are] continually toward Yahweh, because he will take my feet from [the] net.

Turn to me and have mercy on me because I [am] lonely and afflicted.

Protect my life and deliver me. Let me not be put to shame, because I take shelter in you.

Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, because I wait for you.

O God, redeem Israel from all its troubles.

Judge me, O Yahweh, because I have walked in my integrity, and I have trusted Yahweh and not wavered.

Prove me, O Yahweh, and test me. Try my {innermost being} and my {mind}.

Because your loyal love [is] before my eyes, and I walk about in your faithfulness.

I do not sit with deceitful people, nor will I go about with hypocrites.

I hate [the] crowd of evildoers, and with [the] wicked I will not sit.

I will wash my hands in innocence, and I will walk about your altar, O Yahweh,

to declare with a voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all your wondrous deeds.

O Yahweh, I love [the] dwelling of your house, and {the place where your glory abides}.

But as for me, I will walk in my integrity. Redeem me and be gracious to me.

My foot stands on level ground. In assemblies I will bless Yahweh.

Yahweh [is] my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? Yahweh [is] the refuge of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

When evildoers drew near against me to eat my flesh-- my adversaries and my enemies [who drew near] to me-- they themselves stumbled and fell.

Though an army encamp against me, my heart will not fear. Though war arise against me, [even] in this I [will] remain confident.

One [thing] I have asked from Yahweh; it I will seek: [that] I may dwell in the house of Yahweh all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of Yahweh, and to consider his temple.

Because he will hide me in his shelter in [the] day of trouble. He will conceal me in the hiding place of his tent. He will set me high upon a rock.

And now my head will be high over my enemies round about me. And I will offer in his tent sacrifices with shouts of joy. I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to Yahweh.

Hear, O Yahweh, my voice [when] I call, and be gracious to me and answer me.

On your behalf my heart says, "Seek my face." Your face, O Yahweh, I do seek.

Do not hide your face from me; do not turn your servant away in anger. You have been my help; do not abandon nor forsake me, O God of my salvation.

If my father or my mother forsake me, then Yahweh will receive me.

Teach me, O Yahweh, your way, and lead me on a level path because of my enemies.

Surely I believe [that I will] see the goodness of Yahweh in [the] land of [the] living.

Wait for Yahweh. Be strong and let your heart show strength, and wait for Yahweh.

To you, O Yahweh, I call. O my rock, do not be deaf to me. Or else, if you are silent to me, then I will become like those descending to [the] pit.

Hear the voice of my supplications when I cry to you for help, when I lift up my hands toward your holy inner sanctuary.

Do not drag me away with [the] wicked or with [the] workers of evil, [who] speak of peace with their neighbors, while evil [is] in their heart.

Because they do not regard the works of Yahweh, nor the work of his hands, he will destroy them and not rebuild them.

Blessed [is] Yahweh, because he has heard the voice of my supplications.

Yahweh [is] my strength and my shield. My heart trusts him and I am helped. So my heart rejoices, and with my song I will give thanks to him.

Yahweh [is] their strength, and he [is] the refuge for the salvation of his anointed one.

Ascribe to Yahweh, O sons of God, ascribe to Yahweh glory and strength.

Ascribe to Yahweh the glory {due} his name. Worship Yahweh in holy array.

The voice of Yahweh [is] over the waters; the God of glory thunders. Yahweh [is] over many waters.

The voice of Yahweh [is] powerful. The voice of Yahweh [is] majestic.

The voice of Yahweh breaks [the] cedars. Yahweh shatters even the cedars of Lebanon.

And he makes them skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young wild ox.

The voice of Yahweh flashes flames of fire.

The voice of Yahweh shakes [the] wilderness. Yahweh shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.

The voice of Yahweh causes deer to give birth and strips [the] forests bare. And at his temple all in it say, "Glory!"

Yahweh sits [enthroned] at the flood, and Yahweh sits [as] king forever.

May Yahweh give strength to his people. May Yahweh bless his people with peace.

I will exalt you, O Yahweh, because you have drawn me up, and have not made my enemies rejoice over me.

O Yahweh, my God, I cried for help to you, and you healed me.

O Yahweh, you have brought my life up from Sheol. You preserved me alive from among those going down to [the] pit.

Sing praises to Yahweh, you his faithful ones, and give thanks {to his holy fame}.

For [there is] a moment in his anger; [there is] a lifetime in his favor. Weeping lodges for the evening, but in the morning [comes] rejoicing.

But as for me, I had said in my prosperity, "I shall not be moved ever."

O Yahweh, by your favor you caused my strong mountain to stand. You hid your face. I was bewildered.

To you, O Yahweh, I called, and to the Lord I pleaded for grace [saying],

"What gain [is there] in my {death}, in my going down into [the] pit? Will [the] dust praise you? Will it tell of your faithfulness?

"O Yahweh, hear and be gracious to me. O Yahweh, be my helper."

You have turned my wailing into my dancing. You have removed my sackcloth and clothed me [with] joy

so that {I} may sing praises to you and not be quiet. O Yahweh, my God, I will give thanks to you forever.

In you, O Yahweh, I have taken refuge. Let me not be put to shame ever. Deliver me by your righteousness.

Incline your ear to me. Quickly deliver me. Become my rock of refuge, {a fortified keep} to save me.

For you [are] my rock and my fortress. So, for the sake of your name, lead me and guide me.

Bring me out of [the] net that they have secretly set for me, for you [are] my refuge.

Into your hand I commit my spirit. You have redeemed me, O Yahweh, faithful God.

I hate those devoted to useless idols, but I trust Yahweh.

I will exult and rejoice in your loyal love. Because you have seen my misery, you know the distresses of my life.

And you have not delivered me into [the] hand of [the] enemy. You have set my feet in a broad place.

Be gracious [to] me, O Yahweh, because I have distress. My eye wastes away because of vexation, [along with] my soul and my {body}.

For my life is at an end with sorrow, and my years with sighing. My strength stumbles because of my iniquity, and my bones waste away.

Because of all my adversaries I have become a disgrace, especially to my neighbors, and a dread to my acquaintances. [Those who] see me in the street flee from me.

I have become forgotten like [one] dead, out of {mind}. I am like a destroyed vessel.

For I hear [the] rumor of many, "Terror on every side!" When conspiring together against me, they have plotted to take my life.

But as for me, I trust you, O Yahweh. I say, "You [are] my God."

My times [are] in your hand. Deliver me from the hand of my enemies and from [those who] pursue me.

O Yahweh, let me not be put to shame, for I call on you. Let the wicked be put to shame. Let them [go] silently to Sheol.

How abundant [is] your goodness that you have stored up for [those who] fear you, that you perform for those who take refuge in you before [the] children of humankind.

You will hide them in the protection of your presence from [the] plots of man. You will hide them in a shelter from [the] strife of tongues.

Blessed [is] Yahweh, because he has worked marvelously his loyal love to me in a besieged city.

As for me, I said in my alarm, "I am cut off from before your eyes." However you heard the voice of my supplications when I cried to you for help.
