I can see the evildoers! They have fallen! They have been knocked down and are unable to get up!

Refrain from anger and give up your rage;
do not be agitated—it can only bring harm.

My heart beats quickly; my strength leaves me; I can hardly see.

I am become as a man that heareth not: and that can make no resistance with his mouth.

Stop looking at me with chastisement, so I can smile again, before I depart and am no more. To the Director: A Davidic Psalm.

Many, O LORD my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.

As for you, O Lord, have mercy on me and raise me up, so I can pay them back!"

I thirst for God, the living God.
When can I come and appear before God?

O my God, my soul is in despair within me [the burden more than I can bear];
Therefore I will [fervently] remember You from the land of the Jordan
And the peaks of [Mount] Hermon, from Mount Mizar.

{Consider well} her ramparts. Go through her citadels so that you can tell [the] next generation

None of them can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him:

For the ransom of his soul is too costly,
And he should cease trying forever—

For one can see that wise men die;
foolish and stupid men also pass away.
Then they leave their wealth to others.

God says this to the evildoer: "How can you declare my commands, and talk about my covenant?

How can they have understanding, that are the workers of wickedness, eating up my people as it were bread, and calling not upon God?

In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me.

In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto me.

How is it that by remaining silent you can speak righteously? How can you judge people fairly?

Before your pots can feel the thorns, he shall take them away as with a whirlwind, both living, and in his wrath.

You have given a signal flag to those who fear You,
so that they can flee before the archers.Selah

Do not trust in what you can gain by oppression! Do not put false confidence in what you can gain by robbery! If wealth increases, do not become attached to it!

They strengthen for them a wicked word, They talk of hiding snares, They have said, Who can see them?

Iniquities overwhelm me;
only You can atone for our rebellions.

Our God is a God who delivers; the Lord, the sovereign Lord, can rescue from death.

You know how I am insulted, humiliated and disgraced; you can see all my enemies.

Let their eyes be darkened, so that they can't see. Let their backs be continually bent.

Be a rock of refuge for me,
where I can always go.
Give the command to save me,
for You are my rock and fortress.

Your justice, O God, extends to the skies above; you have done great things. O God, who can compare to you?

God, who can compare to you, who caused me to experience troubles that were numerous and disastrous? You will return to revive me and lift me up from the depths of the earth.

And they say, How can God know, and is there knowledge in the Most High?

But as for me, God’s presence is my good.
I have made the Lord God my refuge,
so I can tell about all You do.

Valiant men lie plundered, they have slept their last sleep. None of the men of war can lift their hands.

Thou, thou art to be feared, and who can stand before thee when once thou art angry?

You hold my eyelids open. I am so troubled that I can't speak.

At the last, I came to this point, that I thought, "O why art thou so foolish? the righthand of the most highest can change all!"

O God, your deeds are extraordinary! What god can compare to our great God?

Yea, they spake against God; they said, Can God furnish a table in the wilderness?

Behold, he smote the rock, that the waters gushed out, and the streams overflowed; can he give bread also? can he provide flesh for his people?

Then we will not turn away from you. Restore us, so we can call upon your name.

They know not, neither can they perceive, In darkness, they wander, All the foundations of the earth do shake.

Even the birds find a home there, and the swallow builds a nest, where she can protect her young near your altars, O Lord who rules over all, my king and my God.

Blessed [are] those who dwell in your house; they can ever praise you. Selah

No one can compare with you among the gods, Lord; No one can accomplish your work.

You have taken my friends from me. You have made me an abomination to them. I am confined, and I can't escape.

Can you perform wonders for the dead? Can departed spirits stand up to praise you? Interlude

Can your gracious love be declared in the grave or your faithfulness in Abaddon?

Can your awesome deeds be known in darkness or your righteousness in the land of oblivion?

For who in the heaven can be compared unto the LORD? who among the sons of the mighty can be likened unto the LORD?

How happy are the people who can worship joyfully! LORD, they walk in the light of your presence.

What man can live and not see death?
Can he rescue his soul from the [powerful] hand of Sheol (the nether world, the place of the dead)? Selah.

Who can know the intensity of your anger? Because our fear of you matches your wrath,

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
Will remain secure and rest in the shadow of the Almighty [whose power no enemy can withstand].

With his feathers he will cover you, and under his wings you can take refuge. His faithfulness [will be] a shield and a buckler.

A stupid man doesn't know, and a fool can't comprehend this:

When the wicked flourish like grass and all [the] workers of evil blossom, [it is] so they can be destroyed forever.

Yahweh reigns! He is clothed with majesty! Yahweh is armed with strength. The world also is established. It can't be moved.

Can the One who shaped the ear not hear,
the One who formed the eye not see?

The one who disciplines nations can rebuke them, can he not? The one who teaches mankind can discern, can he not?

Can there be allied with you a throne of destruction, one that forms trouble based on statute?

For the LORD is great, and can not worthily be praised: he is more to be feared than all gods. {TYNDALE: For great is the LORD, and to be praised exceedingly: and terrible is he above all gods.}

Say among the nations, "Yahweh reigns." The world is also established. It can't be moved. He will judge the peoples with equity.

but when the hot wind blows by, it disappears, and one can no longer even spot the place where it once grew.

He provides grass for the cattle, and crops for people to cultivate, so they can produce food from the ground,

as well as wine that makes people feel so good, and so they can have oil to make their faces shine, as well as food that sustains people's lives.

Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD? who can shew forth all his praise?

He causes the hungry to settle there,
and they establish a city where they can live.

Who can compare to the Lord our God, who sits on a high throne?

They have hands, but they cannot feel;
They have feet, but they cannot walk;
Nor can they make a sound with their throats.

Neither can the dead praise the LORD, nor those who go down into the silence of death.

What will I give to the Lord [in return]
For all His benefits toward me?
[How can I repay Him for His precious blessings?]

The LORD is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me?

How can a young man keep his way pure? By taking heed according to your word.

Open my eyes so I can truly see the marvelous things in your law!

Help me understand
the meaning of Your precepts
so that I can meditate on Your wonders.

Then I can answer the one who taunts me,
for I trust in Your word.

י YodYour hands made me and formed me;
give me understanding
so that I can learn Your commands.

I will never forget Your precepts,
For by them You have revived me and given me life.

Turn away from me, you evil men, so that I can observe the commands of my God.

Sustain me so that I can be safe
and always be concerned about Your statutes.

I am your servant. Give me insight, so that I can understand your rules.

Deliver me from oppressive men, so that I can keep your precepts.

Your rules remain just. Give me insight so that I can live.

I cried out to you, "Deliver me, so that I can keep your rules."

My eyes anticipate the nighttime hours, so that I can meditate on your word.

Those who trust in Yahweh are as Mount Zion, which can't be moved, but remains forever.

It is vain for you to rise early, come home late, and work so hard for your food. Yes, he can provide for those whom he loves even when they sleep.

May they be like the grass on the rooftops which withers before one can even pull it up,

and can’t even fill the hands of the reaper
or the arms of the one who binds sheaves.

A Davidic song of ascents.How good and pleasant it is
when brothers live together in harmony!

They have mouths, but they can't speak. They have eyes, but they can't see.

They have ears, but they can't hear; neither is there any breath in their mouths.

How can we sing the Lord’s song
on foreign soil?

This knowledge is beyond me. It's lofty. I can't attain it.

Where I can go from your Spirit, or where can I flee from your presence?

I look to my right and observe no one is concerned about me. There is nowhere I can go for refuge, and no one cares for me.

Free me from prison
so that I can praise Your name.
The righteous will gather around me
because You deal generously with me.

The Lord is great and certainly worthy of praise! No one can fathom his greatness!

He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who can stand before his cold?

It is foolish to spread a net
where any bird can see it,

She is more precious than rubies;
And nothing you can wish for compares with her [in value].
