Resh.
Look upon my affliction and rescue me,
For I do not forget Your law.

{A song of the stairs} When I am in trouble, I call upon the LORD, and he answereth me.

For the rod of the wicked shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands unto iniquity.

As for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, the LORD shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity: but peace shall be upon Israel.

Thy wife shall be as the fruitful vine upon the walls of thy house, thy children like the olive branches round about thy table.

Jehovah shall bless thee from Zion: and look thou upon the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.

Yea, thou shalt see thy children's children, and peace upon Israel.

The plowers plowed upon my back: they made long their furrows.

Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withereth afore it groweth up:

Neither do they which go by say, The blessing of the LORD be upon you: we bless you in the name of the LORD.

{A Song of degrees.} Out of the depths do I call upon thee, Jehovah.

If I shall go into the tent of my house, if I shall go up upon the bed of my couch;

If thy children will keep my covenant and my testimony that I shall teach them, their children shall also sit upon thy throne for evermore.

It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;

As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.

You who are in the house of the Lord, and in the open spaces of the house of our God,

Who sent tokens and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants.

For Jehovah will judge his people, and he will compassion upon his servants.

To Him who stretched out the earth upon the waters,
For His lovingkindness endures forever;

We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof.

How should we sing a song of Jehovah's upon a foreign soil?

My tongue shall cleave to in palate, if I remember thee not; if I bring not up Jerusalem upon the head of my joy.

When I call upon thee, thou hearest me, and endowest my soul with much strength.

For Jehovah is high; but he looketh upon the lowly, and the proud he knoweth afar off.

Though I walk in the midst of trouble, yet shalt thou refresh me; thou shalt stretch forth thine hand upon the furiousness of mine enemies, and thy righthand shall save me.

I know [with confidence] that the Lord will maintain the cause of the afflicted,
And [will secure] justice for the poor.

Jehovah, I have called upon thee; make haste unto me: Give ear unto my voice, when I call unto thee.

Thou wilt not incline my heart to an evil word, to work works in injustice with men doing iniquity: and I will not eat upon their dainties.

Let the righteous smite me, it shall be a kindness; And let him reprove me, it shall be as oil upon the head; Let not my head refuse it: For even in their wickedness shall my prayer continue.

Our bones are scattered at the grave's mouth, as when one cutteth and cleaveth wood upon the earth.

When my spirit was overwhelmed and weak within me [wrapped in darkness],
You knew my path.
In the way where I walk
They have hidden a trap for me.

I look upon my righthand, and see there is no man that will know me. I have no place to flee unto, no man careth for my soul.

Bring forth from prison my soul to confess Thy name, The righteous do compass me about, When Thou conferrest benefits upon me!

And my spirit will languish upon me, and my heart will be desolate within me.

You open Your hand
And satisfy the desire of every living thing.

Happy is he the God of Jacob for his help, his hope upon Jehovah his God:

The Lord makes open the eyes of the blind; the Lord is the lifter up of those who are bent down; the Lord is a lover of the upright;

Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.

which giveth fodder unto the cattle, and feedeth the young ravens that call upon him.

He sendeth forth his commandment upon earth: his word runneth very swiftly.

Praise the LORD upon earth, ye dragons, and all deeps;

They shall praise his name in the dance, and they shall play to him upon the drum and harp.

Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their beds.

To execute vengeance upon the heathen, and punishments upon the people;

To execute upon them the judgment written: this honour have all his saints. Praise ye the LORD.

Praise him in the sound of the trumpet; praise him upon the lute and harp.

Praise him in the cymbals and dances; praise him upon the strings and pipe.

Praise him upon the loud cymbals: praise him upon the high sounding cymbals.

For they are a garland of grace on your head,
And chains and ornaments [of gold] around your neck.

Wisdom is crying out in the street; her voice is loud in the open places;

She calleth before the congregation in the open gates, and showeth her words through the city, saying,

“How long, O naive ones [you who are easily misled], will you love being simple-minded and undiscerning?
How long will scoffers [who ridicule and deride] delight in scoffing,
How long will fools [who obstinately mock truth] hate knowledge?

Turn you at my reproof: Behold, I will pour out my spirit upon you; I will make known my words unto you.

I will also laugh at your calamity; I will mock when panic comes [upon] you.

When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.

Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:

My son, thou shalt not reject the instruction of Jehovah, and thou shalt not loathe upon his reproofs:

Upon her righthand is long life, and upon her left hand is riches and honour.

She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her.

With his knowledge, depths broke open, and clouds dropped dew.

Thou shalt not fabricate evil upon thy neighbor, and he dwelling confidently with thee.

She shall give to thy head a garland of grace; a crown of glory will she bestow upon thee.

Give ear, O my son, and let your heart be open to my sayings; and long life will be yours.

When you walk, your steps will not be impeded [for your path will be clear and open];
And when you run, you will not stumble.

Lay hold upon instruction, thou shalt not let go: guard her for she is thy life.

Upon the path of the lawless, do not thou enter, and do not advance in the way of the wicked:

Let not your springs be flowing in the streets, or your streams of water in the open places.
