Princes shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall soon stretch out her hands unto God.

You have seen my shame, how I was laughed at and made low; my haters are all before you.

The meek have seen it, and are glad: Ye that seek after God, let your heart live.

For God will save Zion, and will build the cities of Judah: that they may dwell there, and have it in possession.

Let them soon be brought to shame, that cry over me, "There! there!"

I have become an ominous sign to many,
but You are my strong refuge.

{A Psalm for Solomon.} Give the king thy judgments, O God, and thy righteousness unto the king's son.

They shall fear thee as long as the sun and moon endure, throughout all generations.

Like showers that water the earth.

His name shall endure for ever: his name shall be continued as long as the sun: and men shall be blessed in him: all nations shall call him blessed.

Remember thy congregation, which thou hast purchased of old; the rod of thine inheritance, which thou hast redeemed; this mount Zion, wherein thou hast dwelt.

Despite all this, they continued to sin, and did not trust him to do amazing things.

But he, being full of pity, has forgiveness for sin, and does not put an end to man: frequently turning back his wrath, and not being violently angry.

How he had wrought his signs in Egypt, and his wonders in the field of Zoan:

So He brought them to His holy land,
To this mountain [Zion] which His right hand had acquired.

His priests [Hophni and Phinehas] fell by the sword,
And His widows could not weep.

But chose the tribe of Judah, the mount Zion which he loved.

O remember not our old sins, but have mercy upon us, and that soon; for we are come to great misery.

Give ear, O Keeper of Israel, guiding Joseph like a flock; you who have your seat on the winged ones, let your glory be seen.

Swine from the forests devour it and creatures of [the] field feed on it.

Even the stock which Your right hand has planted,
And [look down on] the son that You have reared and strengthened for Yourself.

Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, upon the son of man whom thou madest strong for thyself.

The LORD loveth the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.

And of Zion it shall be said, This and that man was born in her: and the highest himself shall establish her.

their sin with blows.

His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me.

You have swept them away like a flood, they fall asleep [forgotten as soon as they are gone];
In the morning they are like grass which grows anew—

For all our days pass away in Your wrath;
We have finished our years like a whispered sigh.

The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.

Who understands the power of Your anger? [Who connects this brevity of life among us with Your judgment of sin?]
And Your wrath, [who connects it] with the [reverent] fear that is due You?

Make us glad according to the days wherein thou hast afflicted us, and the years wherein we have seen evil.

and Your splendor by their children.

Holiness adorns Your house,
O Lord, forever.

O God, in whose hands is punishment, O God of punishment, let your shining face be seen.

Where your fathers have tried Me, Have proved Me, yea, have seen My work.

The heavens declare his righteousness, And all the peoples have seen his glory.

Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced because of thy judgments, O LORD.

Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.

He hath remembered his mercy and his truth toward the house of Israel: all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

The LORD is great in Zion; and he is high above all the people.

You gave them an answer, O Lord our God; you took away their sin, though you gave them punishment for their wrongdoing.

I will take no wicked thing in hand. I hate the sin of unfaithfulness; it shall not cleave unto me.

I shall soon destroy all the ungodly that are in the land, that I may root out all wicked doers from the city of the LORD.

Then are the hills seen aloft, and the valleys beneath - in their place which thou hast appointed for them.

He appointed the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth his going down.

The sun ariseth, they gather themselves together, and lay them down in their dens.

He suffered no son of earth to oppress them, And reproved - for their sakes - even kings!

He let his signs be seen among the people, and his wonders in the land of Ham.

They soon forgat his works; they waited not for his counsel:

He rescued them many times,
but they continued to rebel deliberately
and were beaten down by their sin.

They have seen the works of Jehovah, And His wonders in the deep.

and a fruitful land into a barren place, because of the sin of its inhabitants.

And have sown fields, and planted vineyards, and made them fruits of increase:
