as the waters cover the sea.

king james study

PS-1:1 Blessed [is] the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly,

nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

PS-1:2 But his delight [is] in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he

meditate day and night.

PS-1:3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that

bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and

whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

PS-1:4 The ungodly [are] not so: but [are] like the chaff which the wind

driveth away.

PS-1:5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in

the congregation of the righteous.

PS-1:6 For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the

ungodly shall perish.

PS-2:1 Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?

PS-2:2 The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel

together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, [saying],

PS-2:3 Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.

PS-2:4 He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in

derision.

PS-2:5 Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore

displeasure.

PS-2:6 Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.

PS-2:7 I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou [art] my

Son; this day have I begotten thee.

PS-2:8 Ask of me, and I shall give [thee] the heathen [for] thine inheritance,

and the uttermost parts of the earth [for] thy possession.

PS-2:9 Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in

pieces like a potter's vessel.

PS-2:10 Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the

earth.

PS-2:11 Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.

PS-2:12 Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish [from] the way, when his

wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed [are] all they that put their trust in

him.

PS-3:1 A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son. LORD, how are they

increased that trouble me! many [are] they that rise up against me.

PS-3:2 Many [there be] which say of my soul, [There is] no help for him in

God. Selah.

PS-3:3 But thou, O LORD, [art] a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of

mine head.

PS-3:4 I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy

hill. Selah.

PS-3:5 I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.

PS-3:6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set

[themselves] against me round about.

PS-3:7 Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine

enemies [upon] the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly.

PS-3:8 Salvation [belongeth] unto the LORD: thy blessing [is] upon thy people.

Selah.

PS-4:1 To the chief Musician on Neginoth, A Psalm of David. Hear me when I

call, O God of my righteousness: thou hast enlarged me [when I was] in

distress; have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.

PS-4:2 O ye sons of men, how long [will ye turn] my glory into shame? [how

long] will ye love vanity, [and] seek after leasing? Selah.

PS-4:3 But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself:

the LORD will hear when I call unto him.

PS-4:4 Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed,

and be still. Selah.

PS-4:5 Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD.

PS-4:6 [There be] many that say, Who will show us [any] good? LORD, lift thou

up the light of thy countenance upon us.

PS-4:7 Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than in the time [that] their

corn and their wine increased.

PS-4:8 I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only

makest me dwell in safety.

PS-5:1 To the chief Musician upon Nehiloth, A Psalm of David. Give ear to my

words, O LORD, consider my meditation.

PS-5:2 Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee

will I pray.

PS-5:3 My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I

direct [my prayer] unto thee, and will look up.

PS-5:4 For thou [art] not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither

shall evil dwell with thee.

PS-5:5 The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of

iniquity.

PS-5:6 Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the LORD will abhor the

bloody and deceitful man.

PS-5:7 But as for me, I will come [into] thy house in the multitude of thy

mercy: [and] in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.

PS-5:8 Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy

way straight before my face.

PS-5:9 For [there is] no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part [is]

very wickedness; their throat [is] an open sepulchre; they flatter with their

tongue.

PS-5:10 Destroy thou them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast

them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled

against thee.

PS-5:11 But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever

shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name

be joyful in thee.

PS-5:12 For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou

compass him as [with] a shield.

PS-6:1 To the chief Musician on Neginoth upon Sheminith, A Psalm of David. O

LORD, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.

PS-6:2 Have mercy upon me, O LORD; for I [am] weak: O LORD, heal me; for my

bones are vexed.

PS-6:3 My soul is also sore vexed: but thou, O LORD, how long?

PS-6:4 Return, O LORD, deliver my soul: oh save me for thy mercies' sake.

PS-6:5 For in death [there is] no remembrance of thee: in the grave who shall

give thee thanks?

PS-6:6 I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I

water my couch with my tears.

PS-6:7 Mine eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all

mine enemies.

PS-6:8 Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for the LORD hath heard the

voice of my weeping.

PS-6:9 The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will receive my prayer.

PS-6:10 Let all mine enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them return [and]

be ashamed suddenly.

PS-7:1 Shiggaion of David, which he sang unto the LORD, concerning the words

of Cush the Benjamite. O LORD my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from

all them that persecute me, and deliver me:

PS-7:2 Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending [it] in pieces, while [there

is] none to deliver.

PS-7:3 O LORD my God, if I have done this; if there be iniquity in my hands;

PS-7:4 If I have rewarded evil unto him that was at peace with me; (yea, I

have delivered him that without cause is mine enemy:)

PS-7:5 Let the enemy persecute my soul, and take [it]; yea, let him tread down

my life upon the earth, and lay mine honour in the dust. Selah.

PS-7:6 Arise, O LORD, in thine anger, lift up thyself because of the rage of

mine enemies: and awake for me [to] the judgment [that] thou hast commanded.

PS-7:7 So shall the congregation of the people compass thee about: for their

sakes therefore return thou on high.

PS-7:8 The LORD shall judge the people: judge me, O LORD, according to my

righteousness, and according to mine integrity [that is] in me.

PS-7:9 Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the

just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins.

PS-7:10 My defence [is] of God, which saveth the upright in heart.

PS-7:11 God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry [with the wicked] every

day.

PS-7:12 If he turn not, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made

it ready.

PS-7:13 He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death; he ordaineth

his arrows against the persecutors.

PS-7:14 Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, and hath conceived mischief, and

brought forth falsehood.

PS-7:15 He made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch [which] he

made.

PS-7:16 His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing

shall come down upon his own pate.

PS-7:17 I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness: and will sing

praise to the name of the LORD most high.

PS-8:1 To the chief Musician upon Gittith, A Psalm of David. O LORD our Lord,

how excellent [is] thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the

heavens.

PS-8:2 Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength

because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.

PS-8:3 When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the

stars, which thou hast ordained;

PS-8:4 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that

thou visitest him?

PS-8:5 For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned

him with glory and honour.

PS-8:6 Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast

put all [things] under his feet:

PS-8:7 All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;

PS-8:8 The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, [and whatsoever] passeth

through the paths of the seas.

PS-8:9 O LORD our Lord, how excellent [is] thy name in all the earth!

PS-9:1 To the chief Musician upon Muthlabben, A Psalm of David. I will praise

[thee], O LORD, with my whole heart; I will show forth all thy marvellous

works.

PS-9:2 I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O

thou most High.

PS-9:3 When mine enemies are turned back, they shall fall and perish at thy

presence.

PS-9:4 For thou hast maintained my right and my cause; thou satest in the

throne judging right.

PS-9:5 Thou hast rebuked the heathen, thou hast destroyed the wicked, thou

hast put out their name for ever and ever.

PS-9:6 O thou enemy, destructions are come to a perpetual end: and thou hast

destroyed cities; their memorial is perished with them.

PS-9:7 But the LORD shall endure for ever: he hath prepared his throne for

judgment.

PS-9:8 And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall minister

judgment to the people in uprightness.

PS-9:9 The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of

trouble.

PS-9:10 And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou,

LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.

PS-9:11 Sing praises to the LORD, which dwelleth in Zion: declare among the

people his doings.

PS-9:12 When he maketh inquisition for blood, he remembereth them: he

forgetteth not the cry of the humble.

PS-9:13 Have mercy upon me, O LORD; consider my trouble [which I suffer] of

them that hate me, thou that liftest me up from the gates of death:

PS-9:14 That I may show forth all thy praise in the gates of the daughter of

Zion: I will rejoice in thy salvation.

PS-9:15 The heathen are sunk down in the pit [that] they made: in the net

which they hid is their own foot taken.

PS-9:16 The LORD is known [by] the judgment [which] he executeth: the wicked

is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah.

PS-9:17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, [and] all the nations that

forget God.

PS-9:18 For the needy shall not alway be forgotten: the expectation of the

poor shall [not] perish for ever.

PS-9:19 Arise, O LORD; let not man prevail: let the heathen be judged in thy

sight.

PS-9:20 Put them in fear, O LORD: [that] the nations may know themselves [to

be but] men. Selah.

PS-10:1 Why standest thou afar off, O LORD? [why] hidest thou [thyself] in

times of trouble?

PS-10:2 The wicked in [his] pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken

in the devices that they have imagined.

PS-10:3 For the wicked boasteth of his heart's desire, and blesseth the

covetous, [whom] the LORD abhorreth.

PS-10:4 The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek [after

God]: God [is] not in all his thoughts.

PS-10:5 His ways are always grievous; thy judgments [are] far above out of his

sight: [as for] all his enemies, he puffeth at them.

PS-10:6 He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for [I shall] never

[be] in adversity.

PS-10:7 His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue

[is] mischief and vanity.

PS-10:8 He sitteth in the lurking places of the villages: in the secret places

doth he murder the innocent: his eyes are privily set against the poor.

PS-10:9 He lieth in wait secretly as a lion in his den: he lieth in wait to

catch the poor: he doth catch the poor, when he draweth him into his net.

PS-10:10 He croucheth, [and] humbleth himself, that the poor may fall by his

strong ones.

PS-10:11 He hath said in his heart, God hath forgotten: he hideth his face; he

will never see [it].

PS-10:12 Arise, O LORD; O God, lift up thine hand: forget not the humble.

PS-10:13 Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? he hath said in his heart,

Thou wilt not require [it].

PS-10:14 Thou hast seen [it]: for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to

requite [it] with thy hand: the poor committeth himself unto thee; thou art

the helper of the fatherless.

PS-10:15 Break thou the arm of the wicked and the evil [man]: seek out his

wickedness [till] thou find none.

PS-10:16 The LORD [is] King for ever and ever: the heathen are perished out of

his land.

PS-10:17 LORD, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare

their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear:

PS-10:18 To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth

may no more oppress.

PS-11:1 To the chief Musician, [A Psalm] of David. In the LORD put I my trust:

how say ye to my soul, Flee [as] a bird to your mountain?

PS-11:2 For, lo, the wicked bend [their] bow, they make ready their arrow upon

the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart.

PS-11:3 If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?

PS-11:4 The LORD [is] in his holy temple, the LORD'S throne [is] in heaven:

his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men.

PS-11:5 The LORD trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth

violence his soul hateth.

PS-11:6 Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and an

horrible tempest: [this shall be] the portion of their cup.

PS-11:7 For the righteous LORD loveth righteousness; his countenance doth

behold the upright.

PS-12:1 To the chief Musician upon Sheminith, A Psalm of David. Help, LORD;

for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of

men.

PS-12:2 They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: [with] flattering lips

[and] with a double heart do they speak.

PS-12:3 The LORD shall cut off all flattering lips, [and] the tongue that

speaketh proud things:

PS-12:4 Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips [are] our

own: who [is] lord over us?

PS-12:5 For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will

I arise, saith the LORD; I will set [him] in safety [from him that] puffeth at

him.

PS-12:6 The words of the LORD [are] pure words: [as] silver tried in a furnace

of earth, purified seven times.

PS-12:7 Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this

generation for ever.

PS-12:8 The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted.

PS-13:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. How long wilt thou forget me,

O LORD? for ever? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me?

PS-13:2 How long shall I take counsel in my soul, [having] sorrow in my heart

daily? how long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?

PS-13:3 Consider [and] hear me, O LORD my God: lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep

the [sleep of] death;

PS-13:4 Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him; [and] those that

trouble me rejoice when I am moved.

PS-13:5 But I have trusted in thy mercy; my heart shall rejoice in thy

salvation.

PS-13:6 I will sing unto the LORD, because he hath dealt bountifully with me.

PS-14:1 To the chief Musician, [A Psalm] of David. The fool hath said in his

heart, [There is] no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works,

[there is] none that doeth good.

PS-14:2 The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if

there were any that did understand, [and] seek God.

PS-14:3 They are all gone aside, they are [all] together become filthy: [there

is] none that doeth good, no, not one.

PS-14:4 Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people

[as] they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD.

PS-14:5 There were they in great fear: for God [is] in the generation of the

righteous.

PS-14:6 Ye have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the LORD [is] his

refuge.

PS-14:7 Oh that the salvation of Israel [were come] out of Zion! when the LORD

bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, [and] Israel

shall be glad.

PS-15:1 A Psalm of David. LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall

dwell in thy holy hill?

PS-15:2 He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the

truth in his heart.

PS-15:3 [He that] backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his

neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.

PS-15:4 In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth them that

fear the LORD. [He that] sweareth to [his own] hurt, and changeth not.

PS-15:5 [He that] putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward

against the innocent. He that doeth these [things] shall never be moved.

PS-16:1 Michtam of David. Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust.

PS-16:2 [O my soul], thou hast said unto the LORD, Thou [art] my Lord: my

goodness [extendeth] not to thee;

PS-16:3 [But] to the saints that [are] in the earth, and [to] the excellent,

in whom [is] all my delight.

PS-16:4 Their sorrows shall be multiplied [that] hasten [after] another [god]:

their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take up their names into

my lips.

PS-16:5 The LORD [is] the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou

maintainest my lot.

PS-16:6 The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant [places]; yea, I have a

goodly heritage.

PS-16:7 I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel: my reins also

instruct me in the night seasons.

PS-16:8 I have set the LORD always before me: because [he is] at my right

hand, I shall not be moved.

PS-16:9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also

shall rest in hope.

PS-16:10 For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer

thine Holy One to see corruption.

PS-16:11 Thou wilt show me the path of life: in thy presence [is] fulness of

joy; at thy right hand [there are] pleasures for evermore.

PS-17:1 A prayer of David. Hear the right, O LORD, attend unto my cry, give

ear unto my prayer, [that goeth] not out of feigned lips.

PS-17:2 Let my sentence come forth from thy presence; let thine eyes behold

the things that are equal.

PS-17:3 Thou hast proved mine heart; thou hast visited [me] in the night; thou

hast tried me, [and] shalt find nothing; I am purposed [that] my mouth shall

not transgress.

PS-17:4 Concerning the works of men, by the word of thy lips I have kept [me

from] the paths of the destroyer.

PS-17:5 Hold up my goings in thy paths, [that] my footsteps slip not.

PS-17:6 I have called upon thee, for thou wilt hear me, O God: incline thine

ear unto me, [and hear] my speech.

PS-17:7 Show thy marvellous lovingkindness, O thou that savest by thy right

hand them which put their trust [in thee] from those that rise up [against

them].

PS-17:8 Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy

wings,

PS-17:9 From the wicked that oppress me, [from] my deadly enemies, [who]

compass me about.

PS-17:10 They are enclosed in their own fat: with their mouth they speak

proudly.

PS-17:11 They have now compassed us in our steps: they have set their eyes

bowing down to the earth;

PS-17:12 Like as a lion [that] is greedy of his prey, and as it were a young

lion lurking in secret places.

PS-17:13 Arise, O LORD, disappoint him, cast him down: deliver my soul from

the wicked, [which is] thy sword:

PS-17:14 From men [which are] thy hand, O LORD, from men of the world, [which

have] their portion in [this] life, and whose belly thou fillest with thy hid

[treasure]: they are full of children, and leave the rest of their [substance]

to their babes.

PS-17:15 As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be

satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.

PS-18:1 To the chief Musician, [A Psalm] of David, the servant of the LORD,

who spake unto the LORD the words of this song in the day [that] the LORD

delivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul: And

he said, I will love thee, O LORD, my strength.

PS-18:2 The LORD [is] my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my

strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation,

[and] my high tower.

PS-18:3 I will call upon the LORD, [who is worthy] to be praised: so shall I

be saved from mine enemies.

PS-18:4 The sorrows of death compassed me, and the floods of ungodly men made

me afraid.

PS-18:5 The sorrows of hell compassed me about: the snares of death prevented

me.

PS-18:6 In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried unto my God: he heard

my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him, [even] into his ears.

PS-18:7 Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations also of the hills

moved and were shaken, because he was wroth.

PS-18:8 There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth

devoured: coals were kindled by it.

PS-18:9 He bowed the heavens also, and came down: and darkness [was] under his

feet.

PS-18:10 And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: yea, he did fly upon the

wings of the wind.

PS-18:11 He made darkness his secret place; his pavilion round about him

[were] dark waters [and] thick clouds of the skies.

PS-18:12 At the brightness [that was] before him his thick clouds passed, hail

[stones] and coals of fire.

PS-18:13 The LORD also thundered in the heavens, and the Highest gave his

voice; hail [stones] and coals of fire.

PS-18:14 Yea, he sent out his arrows, and scattered them; and he shot out

lightnings, and discomfited them.

PS-18:15 Then the channels of waters were seen, and the foundations of the

world were discovered at thy rebuke, O LORD, at the blast of the breath of thy

nostrils.

PS-18:16 He sent from above, he took me, he drew me out of many waters.

PS-18:17 He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them which hated me:

for they were too strong for me.

PS-18:18 They prevented me in the day of my calamity: but the LORD was my

stay.

PS-18:19 He brought me forth also into a large place; he delivered me, because

he delighted in me.

PS-18:20 The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness; according to the

cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me.

PS-18:21 For I have kept the ways of the LORD, and have not wickedly departed

from my God.

PS-18:22 For all his judgments [were] before me, and I did not put away his

statutes from me.

PS-18:23 I was also upright before him, and I kept myself from mine iniquity.

PS-18:24 Therefore hath the LORD recompensed me according to my righteousness,

according to the cleanness of my hands in his eyesight.

PS-18:25 With the merciful thou wilt show thyself merciful; with an upright

man thou wilt show thyself upright;

PS-18:26 With the pure thou wilt show thyself pure; and with the froward thou

wilt show thyself froward.

PS-18:27 For thou wilt save the afflicted people; but wilt bring down high

looks.

PS-18:28 For thou wilt light my candle: the LORD my God will enlighten my

darkness.

PS-18:29 For by thee I have run through a troop; and by my God have I leaped

over a wall.

PS-18:30 [As for] God, his way [is] perfect: the word of the LORD is tried: he

[is] a buckler to all those that trust in him.

PS-18:31 For who [is] God save the LORD? or who [is] a rock save our God?

PS-18:32 [It is] God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect.

PS-18:33 He maketh my feet like hinds' [feet], and setteth me upon my high

places.

PS-18:34 He teacheth my hands to war, so that a bow of steel is broken by mine

arms.

PS-18:35 Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy right

hand hath holden me up, and thy gentleness hath made me great.

PS-18:36 Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, that my feet did not slip.

PS-18:37 I have pursued mine enemies, and overtaken them: neither did I turn

again till they were consumed.

PS-18:38 I have wounded them that they were not able to rise: they are fallen

under my feet.

PS-18:39 For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle: thou hast

subdued under me those that rose up against me.

PS-18:40 Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies; that I might

destroy them that hate me.

PS-18:41 They cried, but [there was] none to save [them: even] unto the LORD,

but he answered them not.

PS-18:42 Then did I beat them small as the dust before the wind: I did cast

them out as the dirt in the streets.

PS-18:43 Thou hast delivered me from the strivings of the people; [and] thou

hast made me the head of the heathen: a people [whom] I have not known shall

serve me.

PS-18:44 As soon as they hear of me, they shall obey me: the strangers shall

submit themselves unto me.

PS-18:45 The strangers shall fade away, and be afraid out of their close

places.

PS-18:46 The LORD liveth; and blessed [be] my rock; and let the God of my

salvation be exalted.

PS-18:47 [It is] God that avengeth me, and subdueth the people under me.

PS-18:48 He delivereth me from mine enemies: yea, thou liftest me up above

those that rise up against me: thou hast delivered me from the violent man.

PS-18:49 Therefore will I give thanks unto thee, O LORD, among the heathen,

and sing praises unto thy name.

PS-18:50 Great deliverance giveth he to his king; and showeth mercy to his

anointed, to David, and to his seed for evermore.

PS-19:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory

of God; and the firmament showeth his handiwork.

PS-19:2 Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night showeth knowledge.

PS-19:3 [There is] no speech nor language, [where] their voice is not heard.

PS-19:4 Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the

end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,

PS-19:5 Which [is] as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, [and] rejoiceth

as a strong man to run a race.

PS-19:6 His going forth [is] from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto

the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.

PS-19:7 The law of the LORD [is] perfect, converting the soul: the testimony

of the LORD [is] sure, making wise the simple.

PS-19:8 The statutes of the LORD [are] right, rejoicing the heart: the

commandment of the LORD [is] pure, enlightening the eyes.

PS-19:9 The fear of the LORD [is] clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of

the LORD [are] true [and] righteous altogether.

PS-19:10 More to be desired [are they] than gold, yea, than much fine gold:

sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.

PS-19:11 Moreover by them is thy servant warned: [and] in keeping of them

[there is] great reward.

PS-19:12 Who can understand [his] errors? cleanse thou me from secret

[faults].

PS-19:13 Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous [sins]; let them not

have dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from

the great transgression.

PS-19:14 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be

acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.

PS-20:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. The LORD hear thee in the day

of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend thee;

PS-20:2 Send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion;

PS-20:3 Remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt sacrifice; Selah.

PS-20:4 Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.

PS-20:5 We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our God we will

set up [our] banners: the LORD fulfil all thy petitions.

PS-20:6 Now know I that the LORD saveth his anointed; he will hear him from

his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.

PS-20:7 Some [trust] in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the

name of the LORD our God.

PS-20:8 They are brought down and fallen: but we are risen, and stand upright.

PS-20:9 Save, LORD: let the king hear us when we call.

PS-21:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. The king shall joy in thy

strength, O LORD; and in thy salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!

PS-21:2 Thou hast given him his heart's desire, and hast not withholden the

request of his lips. Selah.

PS-21:3 For thou preventest him with the blessings of goodness: thou settest a

crown of pure gold on his head.

PS-21:4 He asked life of thee, [and] thou gavest [it] him, [even] length of

days for ever and ever.

PS-21:5 His glory [is] great in thy salvation: honour and majesty hast thou

laid upon him.

PS-21:6 For thou hast made him most blessed for ever: thou hast made him

exceeding glad with thy countenance.

PS-21:7 For the king trusteth in the LORD, and through the mercy of the most

High he shall not be moved.

PS-21:8 Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies: thy right hand shall find

out those that hate thee.

PS-21:9 Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven in the time of thine anger: the

LORD shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them.

PS-21:10 Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from

among the children of men.

PS-21:11 For they intended evil against thee: they imagined a mischievous

device, [which] they are not able [to perform].

PS-21:12 Therefore shalt thou make them turn their back, [when] thou shalt

make ready [thine arrows] upon thy strings against the face of them.

PS-21:13 Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength: [so] will we sing and

praise thy power.

PS-22:1 To the chief Musician upon Aijeleth Shahar, A Psalm of David. My God,

my God, why hast thou forsaken me? [why art thou so] far from helping me, [and

from] the words of my roaring?

PS-22:2 O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not; and in the night

season, and am not silent.

PS-22:3 But thou [art] holy, [O thou] that inhabitest the praises of Israel.

PS-22:4 Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver

them.

PS-22:5 They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and

were not confounded.

PS-22:6 But I [am] a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the

people.

PS-22:7 All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they

shake the head, [saying],

PS-22:8 He trusted on the LORD [that] he would deliver him: let him deliver

him, seeing he delighted in him.

PS-22:9 But thou [art] he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me

hope [when I was] upon my mother's breasts.

PS-22:10 I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou [art] my God from my

mother's belly.

PS-22:11 Be not far from me; for trouble [is] near; for [there is] none to

help.

PS-22:12 Many bulls have compassed me: strong [bulls] of Bashan have beset me

round.

PS-22:13 They gaped upon me [with] their mouths, [as] a ravening and a roaring

lion.

PS-22:14 I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my

heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.

PS-22:15 My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my

jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.

PS-22:16 For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have enclosed

me: they pierced my hands and my feet.

PS-22:17 I may tell all my bones: they look [and] stare upon me.

PS-22:18 They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.

PS-22:19 But be not thou far from me, O LORD: O my strength, haste thee to

help me.

PS-22:20 Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog.

PS-22:21 Save me from the lion's mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns

of the unicorns.

PS-22:22 I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the

congregation will I praise thee.

PS-22:23 Ye that fear the LORD, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify

him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel.

PS-22:24 For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the

afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him,

he heard.

PS-22:25 My praise [shall be] of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my

vows before them that fear him.

PS-22:26 The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the LORD that

seek him: your heart shall live for ever.

PS-22:27 All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and

all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.

PS-22:28 For the kingdom [is] the LORD'S: and he [is] the governor among the

nations.

PS-22:29 All [they that be] fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they

that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own

soul.

PS-22:30 A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a

generation.

PS-22:31 They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people

that shall be born, that he hath done [this].

PS-23:1 A Psalm of David. The LORD [is] my shepherd; I shall not want.

PS-23:2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the

still waters.

PS-23:3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for

his name's sake.

PS-23:4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will

fear no evil: for thou [art] with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

PS-23:5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou

anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

PS-23:6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and

I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

PS-24:1 A Psalm of David. The earth [is] the LORD'S, and the fulness thereof;

the world, and they that dwell therein.

PS-24:2 For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the

floods.

PS-24:3 Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his

holy place?

PS-24:4 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his

soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.

PS-24:5 He shall receive the blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from

the God of his salvation.

PS-24:6 This [is] the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O

Jacob. Selah.

PS-24:7 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting

doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

PS-24:8 Who [is] this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD

mighty in battle.

PS-24:9 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift [them] up, ye everlasting

doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

PS-24:10 Who is this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, he [is] the King of

glory. Selah.

PS-25:1 [A Psalm] of David. Unto thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul.

PS-25:2 O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies

triumph over me.

PS-25:3 Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which

transgress without cause.

PS-25:4 Show me thy ways, O LORD; teach me thy paths.

PS-25:5 Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou [art] the God of my

salvation; on thee do I wait all the day.

PS-25:6 Remember, O LORD, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for

they [have been] ever of old.

PS-25:7 Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to

thy mercy remember thou me for thy goodness' sake, O LORD.

PS-25:8 Good and upright [is] the LORD: therefore will he teach sinners in the

way.

PS-25:9 The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his

way.

PS-25:10 All the paths of the LORD [are] mercy and truth unto such as keep his

covenant and his testimonies.

PS-25:11 For thy name's sake, O LORD, pardon mine iniquity; for it [is] great.

PS-25:12 What man [is] he that feareth the LORD? him shall he teach in the way

[that] he shall choose.

PS-25:13 His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth.

PS-25:14 The secret of the LORD [is] with them that fear him; and he will show

them his covenant.

PS-25:15 Mine eyes [are] ever toward the LORD; for he shall pluck my feet out

of the net.

PS-25:16 Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; for I [am] desolate and

afflicted.

PS-25:17 The troubles of my heart are enlarged: [O] bring thou me out of my

distresses.

PS-25:18 Look upon mine affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins.

PS-25:19 Consider mine enemies; for they are many; and they hate me with cruel

hatred.

PS-25:20 O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my

trust in thee.

PS-25:21 Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee.

PS-25:22 Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.

PS-26:1 [A Psalm] of David. Judge me, O LORD; for I have walked in mine

integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; [therefore] I shall not slide.

PS-26:2 Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.

PS-26:3 For thy lovingkindness [is] before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy

truth.

PS-26:4 I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with

dissemblers.

PS-26:5 I have hated the congregation of evildoers; and will not sit with the

wicked.

PS-26:6 I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O

LORD:

PS-26:7 That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy

wondrous works.

PS-26:8 LORD, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where

thine honour dwelleth.

PS-26:9 Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men:

PS-26:10 In whose hands [is] mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes.

PS-26:11 But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be

merciful unto me.

PS-26:12 My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless

the LORD.

PS-27:1 [A Psalm] of David. The LORD [is] my light and my salvation; whom

shall I fear? the LORD [is] the strength of my life; of whom shall I be

afraid?

PS-27:2 When the wicked, [even] mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat

up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.

PS-27:3 Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear:

though war should rise against me, in this [will] I [be] confident.

PS-27:4 One [thing] have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I

may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the

beauty of the LORD, and to inquire in his temple.

PS-27:5 For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the

secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.

PS-27:6 And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about

me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing,

yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD.

PS-27:7 Hear, O LORD, [when] I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and

answer me.

PS-27:8 [When thou saidst], Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy

face, LORD, will I seek.

PS-27:9 Hide not thy face [far] from me; put not thy servant away in anger:

thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my

salvation.

PS-27:10 When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me

up.

PS-27:11 Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of

mine enemies.

PS-27:12 Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false

witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.

PS-27:13 [I had fainted], unless I had believed to see the goodness of the

LORD in the land of the living.

PS-27:14 Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine

heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.

PS-28:1 [A Psalm] of David. Unto thee will I cry, O LORD my rock; be not

silent to me: lest, [if] thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down

into the pit.

PS-28:2 Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift

up my hands toward thy holy oracle.

PS-28:3 Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity,

which speak peace to their neighbours, but mischief [is] in their hearts.

PS-28:4 Give them according to their deeds, and according to the wickedness of

their endeavours: give them after the work of their hands; render to them

their desert.

PS-28:5 Because they regard not the works of the LORD, nor the operation of

his hands, he shall destroy them, and not build them up.

PS-28:6 Blessed [be] the LORD, because he hath heard the voice of my

supplications.

PS-28:7 The LORD [is] my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and

I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I

praise him.

PS-28:8 The LORD [is] their strength, and he [is] the saving strength of his

anointed.

PS-28:9 Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: feed them also, and lift

them up for ever.

PS-29:1 A Psalm of David. Give unto the LORD, O ye mighty, give unto the LORD

glory and strength.

PS-29:2 Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in

the beauty of holiness.

PS-29:3 The voice of the LORD [is] upon the waters: the God of glory

thundereth: the LORD [is] upon many waters.

PS-29:4 The voice of the LORD [is] powerful; the voice of the LORD [is] full

of majesty.

PS-29:5 The voice of the LORD breaketh the cedars; yea, the LORD breaketh the

cedars of Lebanon.

PS-29:6 He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a

young unicorn.

PS-29:7 The voice of the LORD divideth the flames of fire.

PS-29:8 The voice of the LORD shaketh the wilderness; the LORD shaketh the

wilderness of Kadesh.

PS-29:9 The voice of the LORD maketh the hinds to calve, and discovereth the

forests: and in his temple doth every one speak of [his] glory.

PS-29:10 The LORD sitteth upon the flood; yea, the LORD sitteth King for ever.

PS-29:11 The LORD will give strength unto his people; the LORD will bless his

people with peace.

PS-30:1 A Psalm [and] Song [at] the dedication of the house of David. I will

extol thee, O LORD; for thou hast lifted me up, and hast not made my foes to

rejoice over me.

PS-30:2 O LORD my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me.

PS-30:3 O LORD, thou hast brought up my soul from the grave: thou hast kept me

alive, that I should not go down to the pit.

PS-30:4 Sing unto the LORD, O ye saints of his, and give thanks at the

remembrance of his holiness.

PS-30:5 For his anger [endureth but] a moment; in his favour [is] life:

weeping may endure for a night, but joy [cometh] in the morning.

PS-30:6 And in my prosperity I said, I shall never be moved.

PS-30:7 LORD, by thy favour thou hast made my mountain to stand strong: thou

didst hide thy face, [and] I was troubled.

PS-30:8 I cried to thee, O LORD; and unto the LORD I made supplication.

PS-30:9 What profit [is there] in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall

the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?

PS-30:10 Hear, O LORD, and have mercy upon me: LORD, be thou my helper.

PS-30:11 Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off

my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;

PS-30:12 To the end that [my] glory may sing praise to thee, and not be

silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.

PS-31:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. In thee, O LORD, do I put my

trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness.

PS-31:2 Bow down thine ear to me; deliver me speedily: be thou my strong rock,

for an house of defence to save me.

PS-31:3 For thou [art] my rock and my fortress; therefore for thy name's sake

lead me, and guide me.

PS-31:4 Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me: for thou

[art] my strength.

PS-31:5 Into thine hand I commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O LORD God

of truth.

PS-31:6 I have hated them that regard lying vanities: but I trust in the LORD.

PS-31:7 I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy: for thou hast considered my

trouble; thou hast known my soul in adversities;

PS-31:8 And hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: thou hast set my

feet in a large room.

PS-31:9 Have mercy upon me, O LORD, for I am in trouble: mine eye is consumed

with grief, [yea], my soul and my belly.

PS-31:10 For my life is spent with grief, and my years with sighing: my

strength faileth because of mine iniquity, and my bones are consumed.

PS-31:11 I was a reproach among all mine enemies, but especially among my

neighbours, and a fear to mine acquaintance: they that did see me without fled

from me.

PS-31:12 I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel.

PS-31:13 For I have heard the slander of many: fear [was] on every side: while

they took counsel together against me, they devised to take away my life.

PS-31:14 But I trusted in thee, O LORD: I said, Thou [art] my God.

PS-31:15 My times [are] in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies,

and from them that persecute me.

PS-31:16 Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: save me for thy mercies'

sake.

PS-31:17 Let me not be ashamed, O LORD; for I have called upon thee: let the

wicked be ashamed, [and] let them be silent in the grave.

PS-31:18 Let the lying lips be put to silence; which speak grievous things

proudly and contemptuously against the righteous.

PS-31:19 [Oh] how great [is] thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them

that fear thee; [which] thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before

the sons of men!

PS-31:20 Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of

man: thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues.

PS-31:21 Blessed [be] the LORD: for he hath showed me his marvellous kindness

in a strong city.

PS-31:22 For I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes:

nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto

thee.

PS-31:23 O love the LORD, all ye his saints: [for] the LORD preserveth the

faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer.

PS-31:24 Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that

hope in the LORD.

PS-32:1 [A Psalm] of David, Maschil. Blessed [is he whose] transgression [is]

forgiven, [whose] sin [is] covered.

PS-32:2 Blessed [is] the man unto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, and in

whose spirit [there is] no guile.

PS-32:3 When I kept silence, my bones waxed old through my roaring all the day

long.

PS-32:4 For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: my moisture is turned

into the drought of summer. Selah.

PS-32:5 I acknowledged my sin unto thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid. I

said, I will confess my transgressions unto the LORD; and thou forgavest the

iniquity of my sin. Selah.

PS-32:6 For this shall every one that is godly pray unto thee in a time when

thou mayest be found: surely in the floods of great waters they shall not come

nigh unto him.

PS-32:7 Thou [art] my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou

shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah.

PS-32:8 I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I

will guide thee with mine eye.

PS-32:9 Be ye not as the horse, [or] as the mule, [which] have no

understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, lest they come

near unto thee.

PS-32:10 Many sorrows [shall be] to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the

LORD, mercy shall compass him about.

PS-32:11 Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy,

all [ye that are] upright in heart.

PS-33:1 Rejoice in the LORD, O ye righteous: [for] praise is comely for the

upright.

PS-33:2 Praise the LORD with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery [and] an

instrument of ten strings.

PS-33:3 Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise.

PS-33:4 For the word of the LORD [is] right; and all his works [are done] in

truth.

PS-33:5 He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the

goodness of the LORD.

PS-33:6 By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of

them by the breath of his mouth.

PS-33:7 He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up

the depth in storehouses.

PS-33:8 Let all the earth fear the LORD: let all the inhabitants of the world

stand in awe of him.

PS-33:9 For he spake, and it was [done]; he commanded, and it stood fast.

PS-33:10 The LORD bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the

devices of the people of none effect.

PS-33:11 The counsel of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart

to all generations.

PS-33:12 Blessed [is] the nation whose God [is] the LORD; [and] the people

[whom] he hath chosen for his own inheritance.

PS-33:13 The LORD looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men.

PS-33:14 From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants

of the earth.

PS-33:15 He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works.

PS-33:16 There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is

not delivered by much strength.

PS-33:17 An horse [is] a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver [any]

by his great strength.

PS-33:18 Behold, the eye of the LORD [is] upon them that fear him, upon them

that hope in his mercy;

PS-33:19 To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.

PS-33:20 Our soul waiteth for the LORD: he [is] our help and our shield.

PS-33:21 For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his

holy name.

PS-33:22 Let thy mercy, O LORD, be upon us, according as we hope in thee.

PS-34:1 [A Psalm] of David, when he changed his behaviour before Abimelech;

who drove him away, and he departed. I will bless the LORD at all times: his

praise [shall] continually [be] in my mouth.

PS-34:2 My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear

[thereof], and be glad.

PS-34:3 O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together.

PS-34:4 I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my

fears.

PS-34:5 They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not

ashamed.

PS-34:6 This poor man cried, and the LORD heard [him], and saved him out of

all his troubles.

PS-34:7 The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and

delivereth them.

PS-34:8 O taste and see that the LORD [is] good: blessed [is] the man [that]

trusteth in him.

PS-34:9 O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for [there is] no want to them that

fear him.

PS-34:10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the

LORD shall not want any good [thing].

PS-34:11 Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the

LORD.

PS-34:12 What man [is he that] desireth life, [and] loveth [many] days, that

he may see good?

PS-34:13 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.

PS-34:14 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.

PS-34:15 The eyes of the LORD [are] upon the righteous, and his ears [are

open] unto their cry.

PS-34:16 The face of the LORD [is] against them that do evil, to cut off the

remembrance of them from the earth.

PS-34:17 [The righteous] cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of

all their troubles.

PS-34:18 The LORD [is] nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth

such as be of a contrite spirit.

PS-34:19 Many [are] the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth

him out of them all.

PS-34:20 He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken.

PS-34:21 Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be

desolate.

PS-34:22 The LORD redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that

trust in him shall be desolate.

PS-35:1 [A Psalm] of David. Plead [my cause], O LORD, with them that strive

with me: fight against them that fight against me.

PS-35:2 Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for mine help.

PS-35:3 Draw out also the spear, and stop [the way] against them that

persecute me: say unto my soul, I [am] thy salvation.

PS-35:4 Let them be confounded and put to shame that seek after my soul: let

them be turned back and brought to confusion that devise my hurt.

PS-35:5 Let them be as chaff before the wind: and let the angel of the LORD

chase [them].

PS-35:6 Let their way be dark and slippery: and let the angel of the LORD

persecute them.

PS-35:7 For without cause have they hid for me their net [in] a pit, [which]

without cause they have digged for my soul.

PS-35:8 Let destruction come upon him at unawares; and let his net that he

hath hid catch himself: into that very destruction let him fall.

PS-35:9 And my soul shall be joyful in the LORD: it shall rejoice in his

salvation.

PS-35:10 All my bones shall say, LORD, who [is] like unto thee, which

deliverest the poor from him that is too strong for him, yea, the poor and the

needy from him that spoileth him?

PS-35:11 False witnesses did rise up; they laid to my charge [things] that I

knew not.

PS-35:12 They rewarded me evil for good [to] the spoiling of my soul.

PS-35:13 But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing [was] sackcloth: I

humbled my soul with fasting; and my prayer returned into mine own bosom.

PS-35:14 I behaved myself as though [he had been] my friend [or] brother: I

bowed down heavily, as one that mourneth [for his] mother.

PS-35:15 But in mine adversity they rejoiced, and gathered themselves

together: [yea], the abjects gathered themselves together against me, and I

knew [it] not; they did tear [me], and ceased not:

PS-35:16 With hypocritical mockers in feasts, they gnashed upon me with their

teeth.

PS-35:17 Lord, how long wilt thou look on? rescue my soul from their

destructions, my darling from the lions.

PS-35:18 I will give thee thanks in the great congregation: I will praise thee

among much people.

PS-35:19 Let not them that are mine enemies wrongfully rejoice over me:

[neither] let them wink with the eye that hate me without a cause.

PS-35:20 For they speak not peace: but they devise deceitful matters against

[them that are] quiet in the land.

PS-35:21 Yea, they opened their mouth wide against me, [and] said, Aha, aha,

our eye hath seen [it].

PS-35:22 [This] thou hast seen, O LORD: keep not silence: O LORD, be not far

from me.

PS-35:23 Stir up thyself, and awake to my judgment, [even] unto my cause, my

God and my Lord.

PS-35:24 Judge me, O LORD my God, according to thy righteousness; and let them

not rejoice over me.

PS-35:25 Let them not say in their hearts, Ah, so would we have it: let them

not say, We have swallowed him up.

PS-35:26 Let them be ashamed and brought to confusion together that rejoice at

mine hurt: let them be clothed with shame and dishonour that magnify

[themselves] against me.

PS-35:27 Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favour my righteous cause:

yea, let them say continually, Let the LORD be magnified, which hath pleasure

in the prosperity of his servant.

PS-35:28 And my tongue shall speak of thy righteousness [and] of thy praise

all the day long.

PS-36:1 To the chief Musician, [A Psalm] of David the servant of the LORD. The

transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, [that there is] no fear of

God before his eyes.

PS-36:2 For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity be found

to be hateful.

PS-36:3 The words of his mouth [are] iniquity and deceit: he hath left off to

be wise, [and] to do good.

PS-36:4 He deviseth mischief upon his bed; he setteth himself in a way [that

is] not good; he abhorreth not evil.

PS-36:5 Thy mercy, O LORD, [is] in the heavens; [and] thy faithfulness

[reacheth] unto the clouds.

PS-36:6 Thy righteousness [is] like the great mountains; thy judgments [are] a

great deep: O LORD, thou preservest man and beast.

PS-36:7 How excellent [is] thy lovingkindness, O God! therefore the children

of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings.

PS-36:8 They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; and

thou shalt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures.

PS-36:9 For with thee [is] the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see

light.

PS-36:10 O continue thy lovingkindness unto them that know thee; and thy

righteousness to the upright in heart.

PS-36:11 Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of

the wicked remove me.

PS-36:12 There are the workers of iniquity fallen: they are cast down, and

shall not be able to rise.

PS-37:1 [A Psalm] of David. Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be

thou envious against the workers of iniquity.

PS-37:2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the

green herb.

PS-37:3 Trust in the LORD, and do good; [so] shalt thou dwell in the land, and

verily thou shalt be fed.

PS-37:4 Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires

of thine heart.

PS-37:5 Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring

[it] to pass.

PS-37:6 And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy

judgment as the noonday.

PS-37:7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because

of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked

devices to pass.

PS-37:8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to

do evil.

PS-37:9 For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD,

they shall inherit the earth.

PS-37:10 For yet a little while, and the wicked [shall] not [be]: yea, thou

shalt diligently consider his place, and it [shall] not [be].

PS-37:11 But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in

the abundance of peace.

PS-37:12 The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his

teeth.

PS-37:13 The Lord shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming.

PS-37:14 The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast

down the poor and needy, [and] to slay such as be of upright conversation.

PS-37:15 Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be

broken.

PS-37:16 A little that a righteous man hath [is] better than the riches of

many wicked.

PS-37:17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken: but the LORD upholdeth

the righteous.

PS-37:18 The LORD knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall

be for ever.

PS-37:19 They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine

they shall be satisfied.

PS-37:20 But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD [shall be]

as the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away.

PS-37:21 The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again: but the righteous showeth

mercy, and giveth.

PS-37:22 For [such as be] blessed of him shall inherit the earth; and [they

that be] cursed of him shall be cut off.

PS-37:23 The steps of a [good] man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth

in his way.

PS-37:24 Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD

upholdeth [him with] his hand.

PS-37:25 I have been young, and [now] am old; yet have I not seen the

righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.

PS-37:26 [He is] ever merciful, and lendeth; and his seed [is] blessed.

PS-37:27 Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore.

PS-37:28 For the LORD loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints; they are

preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.

PS-37:29 The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever.

PS-37:30 The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of

judgment.

PS-37:31 The law of his God [is] in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.

PS-37:32 The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him.

PS-37:33 The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is

judged.

PS-37:34 Wait on the LORD, and keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to

inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see [it].

PS-37:35 I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a

green bay tree.

PS-37:36 Yet he passed away, and, lo, he [was] not: yea, I sought him, but he

could not be found.

PS-37:37 Mark the perfect [man], and behold the upright: for the end of [that]

man [is] peace.

PS-37:38 But the transgressors shall be destroyed together: the end of the

wicked shall be cut off.

PS-37:39 But the salvation of the righteous [is] of the LORD: [he is] their

strength in the time of trouble.

PS-37:40 And the LORD shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them

from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him.

PS-38:1 A Psalm of David, to bring to remembrance. O LORD, rebuke me not in

thy wrath: neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.

PS-38:2 For thine arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand presseth me sore.

PS-38:3 [There is] no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither

[is there any] rest in my bones because of my sin.

PS-38:4 For mine iniquities are gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they

are too heavy for me.

PS-38:5 My wounds stink [and] are corrupt because of my foolishness.

PS-38:6 I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day

long.

PS-38:7 For my loins are filled with a loathsome [disease]: and [there is] no

soundness in my flesh.

PS-38:8 I am feeble and sore broken: I have roared by reason of the

disquietness of my heart.

PS-38:9 Lord, all my desire [is] before thee; and my groaning is not hid from

thee.

PS-38:10 My heart panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of mine

eyes, it also is gone from me.

PS-38:11 My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore; and my kinsmen

stand afar off.

PS-38:12 They also that seek after my life lay snares [for me]: and they that

seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and imagine deceits all the day long.

PS-38:13 But I, as a deaf [man], heard not; and [I was] as a dumb man [that]

openeth not his mouth.

PS-38:14 Thus I was as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth [are] no

reproofs.

PS-38:15 For in thee, O LORD, do I hope: thou wilt hear, O Lord my God.

PS-38:16 For I said, [Hear me], lest [otherwise] they should rejoice over me:

when my foot slippeth, they magnify [themselves] against me.

PS-38:17 For I [am] ready to halt, and my sorrow [is] continually before me.

PS-38:18 For I will declare mine iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin.

PS-38:19 But mine enemies [are] lively, [and] they are strong: and they that

hate me wrongfully are multiplied.

PS-38:20 They also that render evil for good are mine adversaries; because I

follow [the thing that] good [is].

PS-38:21 Forsake me not, O LORD: O my God, be not far from me. 38:22 Make

haste to help me, O Lord my salvation.

PS-39:1 To the chief Musician, [even] to Jeduthun, A Psalm of David. I said, I

will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth

with a bridle, while the wicked is before me.

PS-39:2 I was dumb with silence, I held my peace, [even] from good; and my

sorrow was stirred.

PS-39:3 My heart was hot within me, while I was musing the fire burned: [then]

spake I with my tongue,

PS-39:4 LORD, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it

[is; that] I may know how frail I [am].

PS-39:5 Behold, thou hast made my days [as] an handbreadth; and mine age [is]

as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state [is] altogether

vanity. Selah.

PS-39:6 Surely every man walketh in a vain show: surely they are disquieted in

vain: he heapeth up [riches], and knoweth not who shall gather them.

PS-39:7 And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope [is] in thee.

PS-39:8 Deliver me from all my transgressions: make me not the reproach of the

foolish.

PS-39:9 I was dumb, I opened not my mouth; because thou didst [it].

PS-39:10 Remove thy stroke away from me: I am consumed by the blow of thine

hand.

PS-39:11 When thou with rebukes dost correct man for iniquity, thou makest his

beauty to consume away like a moth: surely every man [is] vanity. Selah.

PS-39:12 Hear my prayer, O LORD, and give ear unto my cry; hold not thy peace

at my tears: for I [am] a stranger with thee, [and] a sojourner, as all my

fathers [were].

PS-39:13 O spare me, that I may recover strength, before I go hence, and be no

more.

PS-40:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. I waited patiently for the

LORD; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.

PS-40:2 He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay,

and set my feet upon a rock, [and] established my goings.

PS-40:3 And he hath put a new song in my mouth, [even] praise unto our God:

many shall see [it], and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.

PS-40:4 Blessed [is] that man that maketh the LORD his trust, and respecteth

not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.

PS-40:5 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.

PS-40:6 Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou

opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.

PS-40:7 Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book [it is] written of

me,

PS-40:8 I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law [is] within my heart.

PS-40:9 I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I have

not refrained my lips, O LORD, thou knowest.

PS-40:10 I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy

faithfulness and thy salvation: I have not concealed thy lovingkindness and

thy truth from the great congregation.

PS-40:11 Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O LORD: let thy

lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me.

PS-40:12 For innumerable evils have compassed me about: mine iniquities have

taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the

hairs of mine head: therefore my heart faileth me.

PS-40:13 Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me: O LORD, make haste to help me.

PS-40:14 Let them be ashamed and confounded together that seek after my soul

to destroy it; let them be driven backward and put to shame that wish me evil.

PS-40:15 Let them be desolate for a reward of their shame that say unto me,

Aha, aha.

PS-40:16 Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: let such as

love thy salvation say continually, The LORD be magnified.

PS-40:17 But I [am] poor and needy; [yet] the Lord thinketh upon me: thou

[art] my help and my deliverer; make no tarrying, O my God.

PS-41:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. Blessed [is] he that

considereth the poor: the LORD will deliver him in time of trouble.

PS-41:2 The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive; [and] he shall be

blessed upon the earth: and thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of his

enemies.

PS-41:3 The LORD will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing: thou wilt

make all his bed in his sickness.

PS-41:4 I said, LORD, be merciful unto me: heal my soul; for I have sinned

against thee.

PS-41:5 Mine enemies speak evil of me, When shall he die, and his name perish?

PS-41:6 And if he come to see [me], he speaketh vanity: his heart gathereth

iniquity to itself; [when] he goeth abroad, he telleth [it].

PS-41:7 All that hate me whisper together against me: against me do they

devise my hurt.

PS-41:8 An evil disease, [say they], cleaveth fast unto him: and [now] that he

lieth he shall rise up no more.

PS-41:9 Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my

bread, hath lifted up [his] heel against me.

PS-41:10 But thou, O LORD, be merciful unto me, and raise me up, that I may

requite them.

PS-41:11 By this I know that thou favourest me, because mine enemy doth not

triumph over me.

PS-41:12 And as for me, thou upholdest me in mine integrity, and settest me

before thy face for ever.

PS-41:13 Blessed [be] the LORD God of Israel from everlasting, and to

everlasting. Amen, and Amen.

PS-42:1 To the chief Musician, Maschil, for the sons of Korah. As the hart

panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God.

PS-42:2 My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I come and

appear before God?

PS-42:3 My tears have been my meat day and night, while they continually say

unto me, Where [is] thy God?

PS-42:4 When I remember these [things], I pour out my soul in me: for I had

gone with the multitude, I went with them to the house of God, with the voice

of joy and praise, with a multitude that kept holyday.

PS-42:5 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and [why] art thou disquieted in

me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him [for] the help of his

countenance.

PS-42:6 O my God, my soul is cast down within me: therefore will I remember

thee from the land of Jordan, and of the Hermonites, from the hill Mizar.

PS-42:7 Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterspouts: all thy waves

and thy billows are gone over me.

PS-42:8 [Yet] the LORD will command his lovingkindness in the daytime, and in

the night his song [shall be] with me, [and] my prayer unto the God of my

life.

PS-42:9 I will say unto God my rock, Why hast thou forgotten me? why go I

mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

PS-42:10 [As] with a sword in my bones, mine enemies reproach me; while they

say daily unto me, Where [is] thy God?

PS-42:11 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within

me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, [who is] the health of my

countenance, and my God.

PS-43:1 Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation: O

deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.

PS-43:2 For thou [art] the God of my strength: why dost thou cast me off? why

go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

PS-43:3 O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring

me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.

PS-43:4 Then will I go unto the altar of God, unto God my exceeding joy: yea,

upon the harp will I praise thee, O God my God.

PS-43:5 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within

me? hope in God: for I shall yet praise him, [who is] the health of my

countenance, and my God.

PS-44:1 To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, Maschil. We have heard

with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, [what] work thou didst in

their days, in the times of old.

PS-44:2 [How] thou didst drive out the heathen with thy hand, and plantedst

them; [how] thou didst afflict the people, and cast them out.

PS-44:3 For they got not the land in possession by their own sword, neither

did their own arm save them: but thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light

of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favour unto them.

PS-44:4 Thou art my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob.

PS-44:5 Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name will we

tread them under that rise up against us.

PS-44:6 For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.

PS-44:7 But thou hast saved us from our enemies, and hast put them to shame

that hated us.

PS-44:8 In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy name for ever. Selah.

PS-44:9 But thou hast cast off, and put us to shame; and goest not forth with

our armies.

PS-44:10 Thou makest us to turn back from the enemy: and they which hate us

spoil for themselves.

PS-44:11 Thou hast given us like sheep [appointed] for meat; and hast

scattered us among the heathen.

PS-44:12 Thou sellest thy people for nought, and dost not increase [thy

wealth] by their price.

PS-44:13 Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and a derision

to them that are round about us.

PS-44:14 Thou makest us a byword among the heathen, a shaking of the head

among the people.

PS-44:15 My confusion [is] continually before me, and the shame of my face

hath covered me,

PS-44:16 For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of

the enemy and avenger.

PS-44:17 All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, neither

have we dealt falsely in thy covenant.

PS-44:18 Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from

thy way;

PS-44:19 Though thou hast sore broken us in the place of dragons, and covered

us with the shadow of death.

PS-44:20 If we have forgotten the name of our God, or stretched out our hands

to a strange god;

PS-44:21 Shall not God search this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the

heart.

PS-44:22 Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as

sheep for the slaughter.

PS-44:23 Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, cast [us] not off for ever.

PS-44:24 Wherefore hidest thou thy face, [and] forgettest our affliction and

our oppression?

PS-44:25 For our soul is bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth unto the

earth.

PS-44:26 Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy mercies' sake.

PS-45:1 To the chief Musician upon Shoshannim, for the sons of Korah, Maschil,

A Song of loves. My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things

which I have made touching the king: my tongue [is] the pen of a ready writer.

PS-45:2 Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy

lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.

PS-45:3 Gird thy sword upon [thy] thigh, O [most] mighty, with thy glory and

thy majesty.

PS-45:4 And in thy majesty ride prosperously because of truth and meekness

[and] righteousness; and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things.

PS-45:5 Thine arrows [are] sharp in the heart of the king's enemies; [whereby]

the people fall under thee.

PS-45:6 Thy throne, O God, [is] for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom

[is] a right sceptre.

PS-45:7 Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy

God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.

PS-45:8 All thy garments [smell] of myrrh, and aloes, [and] cassia, out of the

ivory palaces, whereby they have made thee glad.

PS-45:9 Kings' daughters [were] among thy honourable women: upon thy right

hand did stand the queen in gold of Ophir.

PS-45:10 Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also

thine own people, and thy father's house;

PS-45:11 So shall the king greatly desire thy beauty: for he [is] thy Lord;

and worship thou him.

PS-45:12 And the daughter of Tyre [shall be there] with a gift; [even] the

rich among the people shall entreat thy favour.

PS-45:13 The king's daughter [is] all glorious within: her clothing [is] of

wrought gold.

PS-45:14 She shall be brought unto the king in raiment of needlework: the

virgins her companions that follow her shall be brought unto thee.

PS-45:15 With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought: they shall enter

into the king's palace.

PS-45:16 Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children, whom thou mayest make

princes in all the earth.

PS-45:17 I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations: therefore

shall the people praise thee for ever and ever.

PS-46:1 To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, A Song upon Alamoth. God

[is] our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

PS-46:2 Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though

the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;

PS-46:3 [Though] the waters thereof roar [and] be troubled, [though] the

mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.

PS-46:4 [There is] a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of

God, the holy [place] of the tabernacles of the most High.

PS-46:5 God [is] in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help

her, [and that] right early.

PS-46:6 The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the

earth melted.

PS-46:7 The LORD of hosts [is] with us; the God of Jacob [is] our refuge.

Selah.

PS-46:8 Come, behold the works of the LORD, what desolations he hath made in

the earth.

PS-46:9 He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the

bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire.

PS-46:10 Be still, and know that I [am] God: I will be exalted among the

heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.

PS-46:11 The LORD of hosts [is] with us; the God of Jacob [is] our refuge.

Selah.

PS-47:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm for the sons of Korah. O clap your

hands, all ye people; shout unto God with the voice of triumph.

PS-47:2 For the LORD most high [is] terrible; [he is] a great King over all

the earth.

PS-47:3 He shall subdue the people under us, and the nations under our feet.

PS-47:4 He shall choose our inheritance for us, the excellency of Jacob whom

he loved. Selah.

PS-47:5 God is gone up with a shout, the LORD with the sound of a trumpet.

PS-47:6 Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, sing

praises.

PS-47:7 For God [is] the King of all the earth: sing ye praises with

understanding.

PS-47:8 God reigneth over the heathen: God sitteth upon the throne of his

holiness.

PS-47:9 The princes of the people are gathered together, [even] the people of

the God of Abraham: for the shields of the earth [belong] unto God: he is

greatly exalted.

PS-48:1 A Song [and] Psalm for the sons of Korah. Great [is] the LORD, and

greatly to be praised in the city of our God, [in] the mountain of his

holiness.

PS-48:2 Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, [is] mount Zion,

[on] the sides of the north, the city of the great King.

PS-48:3 God is known in her palaces for a refuge.

PS-48:4 For, lo, the kings were assembled, they passed by together.

PS-48:5 They saw [it, and] so they marvelled; they were troubled, [and] hasted

away.

PS-48:6 Fear took hold upon them there, [and] pain, as of a woman in travail.

PS-48:7 Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish with an east wind.

PS-48:8 As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, in

the city of our God: God will establish it for ever. Selah.

PS-48:9 We have thought of thy lovingkindness, O God, in the midst of thy

temple.

PS-48:10 According to thy name, O God, so [is] thy praise unto the ends of the

earth: thy right hand is full of righteousness.

PS-48:11 Let mount Zion rejoice, let the daughters of Judah be glad, because

of thy judgments.

PS-48:12 Walk about Zion, and go round about her: tell the towers thereof.

PS-48:13 Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces; that ye may tell

[it] to the generation following.

PS-48:14 For this God [is] our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide

[even] unto death.

PS-49:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm for the sons of Korah. Hear this, all

[ye] people; give ear, all [ye] inhabitants of the world:

PS-49:2 Both low and high, rich and poor, together.

PS-49:3 My mouth shall speak of wisdom; and the meditation of my heart [shall

be] of understanding.

PS-49:4 I will incline mine ear to a parable: I will open my dark saying upon

the harp.

PS-49:5 Wherefore should I fear in the days of evil, [when] the iniquity of my

heels shall compass me about?

PS-49:6 They that trust in their wealth, and boast themselves in the multitude

of their riches;

PS-49:7 None [of them] can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a

ransom for him:

PS-49:8 (For the redemption of their soul [is] precious, and it ceaseth for

ever:)

PS-49:9 That he should still live for ever, [and] not see corruption.

PS-49:10 For he seeth [that] wise men die, likewise the fool and the brutish

person perish, and leave their wealth to others.

PS-49:11 Their inward thought [is, that] their houses [shall continue] for

ever, [and] their dwelling places to all generations; they call [their] lands

after their own names.

PS-49:12 Nevertheless man [being] in honour abideth not: he is like the beasts

[that] perish.

PS-49:13 This their way [is] their folly: yet their posterity approve their

sayings. Selah.

PS-49:14 Like sheep they are laid in the grave; death shall feed on them; and

the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning; and their beauty

shall consume in the grave from their dwelling.

PS-49:15 But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall

receive me. Selah.

PS-49:16 Be not thou afraid when one is made rich, when the glory of his house

is increased;

PS-49:17 For when he dieth he shall carry nothing away: his glory shall not

descend after him.

PS-49:18 Though while he lived he blessed his soul: and [men] will praise

thee, when thou doest well to thyself.

PS-49:19 He shall go to the generation of his fathers; they shall never see

light.

PS-49:20 Man [that is] in honour, and understandeth not, is like the beasts

[that] perish.

PS-50:1 A Psalm of Asaph. The mighty God, [even] the LORD, hath spoken, and

called the earth from the rising of the sun unto the going down thereof.

PS-50:2 Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God hath shined.

PS-50:3 Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence: a fire shall devour

before him, and it shall be very tempestuous round about him.

PS-50:4 He shall call to the heavens from above, and to the earth, that he may

judge his people.

PS-50:5 Gather my saints together unto me; those that have made a covenant

with me by sacrifice.

PS-50:6 And the heavens shall declare his righteousness: for God [is] judge

himself. Selah.

PS-50:7 Hear, O my people, and I will speak; O Israel, and I will testify

against thee: I [am] God, [even] thy God.

PS-50:8 I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices or thy burnt offerings, [to

have been] continually before me.

PS-50:9 I will take no bullock out of thy house, [nor] he goats out of thy

folds.

PS-50:10 For every beast of the forest [is] mine, [and] the cattle upon a

thousand hills.

PS-50:11 I know all the fowls of the mountains: and the wild beasts of the

field [are] mine.

PS-50:12 If I were hungry, I would not tell thee: for the world [is] mine, and

the fulness thereof.

PS-50:13 Will I eat the flesh of bulls, or drink the blood of goats?

PS-50:14 Offer unto God thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the most High:

PS-50:15 And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou

shalt glorify me.

PS-50:16 But unto the wicked God saith, What hast thou to do to declare my

statutes, or [that] thou shouldest take my covenant in thy mouth?

PS-50:17 Seeing thou hatest instruction, and castest my words behind thee.

PS-50:18 When thou sawest a thief, then thou consentedst with him, and hast

been partaker with adulterers.

PS-50:19 Thou givest thy mouth to evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit.

PS-50:20 Thou sittest [and] speakest against thy brother; thou slanderest

thine own mother's son.

PS-50:21 These [things] hast thou done, and I kept silence; thou thoughtest

that I was altogether [such an one] as thyself: [but] I will reprove thee, and

set [them] in order before thine eyes.

PS-50:22 Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear [you] in pieces,

and [there be] none to deliver.

PS-50:23 Whoso offereth praise glorifieth me: and to him that ordereth [his]

conversation [aright] will I show the salvation of God.

PS-51:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, when Nathan the prophet came

unto him, after he had gone in to Bathsheba. Have mercy upon me, O God,

according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender

mercies blot outmy transgressions.

PS-51:2 Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.

PS-51:3 For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin [is] ever before me.

PS-51:4 Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done [this] evil in thy

sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, [and] be clear when

thou judgest.

PS-51:5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity, and in sin did my mother conceive

me.

PS-51:6 Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden

[part] thou shalt make me to know wisdom.

PS-51:7 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be

whiter than snow.

PS-51:8 Make me to hear joy and gladness; [that] the bones [which] thou hast

broken may rejoice.

PS-51:9 Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.

PS-51:10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within

me.

PS-51:11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from

me.

PS-51:12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me [with thy]

free spirit.

PS-51:13 [Then] will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be

converted unto thee.

PS-51:14 Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation:

[and] my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.

PS-51:15 O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall show forth thy praise.

PS-51:16 For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give [it]: thou

delightest not in burnt offering.

PS-51:17 The sacrifices of God [are] a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite

heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.

PS-51:18 Do good in thy good pleasure unto Zion: build thou the walls of

Jerusalem.

PS-51:19 Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with

burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon

thine altar.

PS-52:1 To the chief Musician, Maschil, [A Psalm] of David, when Doeg the

Edomite came and told Saul, and said unto him, David is come to the house of

Ahimelech. Why boastest thou thyself in mischief, O mighty man? the goodness

of God [endureth] continually.

PS-52:2 Thy tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp razor, working

deceitfully.

PS-52:3 Thou lovest evil more than good; [and] lying rather than to speak

righteousness. Selah.

PS-52:4 Thou lovest all devouring words, O [thou] deceitful tongue.

PS-52:5 God shall likewise destroy thee for ever, he shall take thee away, and

pluck thee out of [thy] dwelling place, and root thee out of the land of the

living. Selah.

PS-52:6 The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him:

PS-52:7 Lo, [this is] the man [that] made not God his strength; but trusted in

the abundance of his riches, [and] strengthened himself in his wickedness.

PS-52:8 But I [am] like a green olive tree in the house of God: I trust in the

mercy of God for ever and ever.

PS-52:9 I will praise thee for ever, because thou hast done [it]: and I will

wait on thy name; for [it is] good before thy saints.

PS-53:1 To the chief Musician upon Mahalath, Maschil, [A Psalm] of David. The

fool hath said in his heart, [There is] no God. Corrupt are they, and have

done abominable iniquity: [there is] none that doeth good.

PS-53:2 God looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there

were [any] that did understand, that did seek God.

PS-53:3 Every one of them is gone back: they are altogether become filthy;

[there is] none that doeth good, no, not one.

PS-53:4 Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people [as]

they eat bread: they have not called upon God.

PS-53:5 There were they in great fear, [where] no fear was: for God hath

scattered the bones of him that encampeth [against] thee: thou hast put [them]

to shame, because God hath despised them.

PS-53:6 Oh that the salvation of Israel [were come] out of Zion! When God

bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, [and] Israel

shall be glad.

PS-54:1 To the chief Musician on Neginoth, Maschil, [A Psalm] of David, when

the Ziphims came and said to Saul, Doth not David hide himself with us? Save

me, O God, by thy name, and judge me by thy strength.

PS-54:2 Hear my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth.

PS-54:3 For strangers are risen up against me, and oppressors seek after my

soul: they have not set God before them. Selah.

PS-54:4 Behold, God [is] mine helper: the Lord [is] with them that uphold my

soul.

PS-54:5 He shall reward evil unto mine enemies: cut them off in thy truth.

PS-54:6 I will freely sacrifice unto thee: I will praise thy name, O LORD; for

[it is] good.

PS-54:7 For he hath delivered me out of all trouble: and mine eye hath seen

[his desire] upon mine enemies.

PS-55:1 To the chief Musician on Neginoth, Maschil, [A Psalm] of David. Give

ear to my prayer, O God; and hide not thyself from my supplication.

PS-55:2 Attend unto me, and hear me: I mourn in my complaint, and make a

noise;

PS-55:3 Because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the

wicked: for they cast iniquity upon me, and in wrath they hate me.

PS-55:4 My heart is sore pained within me: and the terrors of death are fallen

upon me.

PS-55:5 Fearfulness and trembling are come upon me, and horror hath

overwhelmed me.

PS-55:6 And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! [for then] would I fly

away, and be at rest.

PS-55:7 Lo, [then] would I wander far off, [and] remain in the wilderness.

Selah.

PS-55:8 I would hasten my escape from the windy storm [and] tempest.

PS-55:9 Destroy, O Lord, [and] divide their tongues: for I have seen violence

and strife in the city.

PS-55:10 Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof: mischief also

and sorrow [are] in the midst of it.

PS-55:11 Wickedness [is] in the midst thereof: deceit and guile depart not

from her streets.

PS-55:12 For [it was] not an enemy [that] reproached me; then I could have

borne [it]: neither [was it] he that hated me [that] did magnify [himself]

against me; then I would have hid myself from him:

PS-55:13 But [it was] thou, a man mine equal, my guide, and mine acquaintance.

PS-55:14 We took sweet counsel together, [and] walked unto the house of God in

company.

PS-55:15 Let death seize upon them, [and] let them go down quick into hell:

for wickedness [is] in their dwellings, [and] among them.

PS-55:16 As for me, I will call upon God; and the LORD shall save me.

PS-55:17 Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he

shall hear my voice.

PS-55:18 He hath delivered my soul in peace from the battle [that was] against

me: for there were many with me.

PS-55:19 God shall hear, and afflict them, even he that abideth of old. Selah.

Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not God.

PS-55:20 He hath put forth his hands against such as be at peace with him: he

hath broken his covenant.

PS-55:21 [The words] of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war [was] in

his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet [were] they drawn swords.

PS-55:22 Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall

never suffer the righteous to be moved.

PS-55:23 But thou, O God, shalt bring them down into the pit of destruction:

bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days; but I will trust

in thee.

PS-56:1 To the chief Musician upon Jonathelemrechokim, Michtam of David, when

the Philistines took him in Gath. Be merciful unto me, O God: for man would

swallow me up; he fighting daily oppresseth me.

PS-56:2 Mine enemies would daily swallow [me] up: for [they be] many that

fight against me, O thou most High.

PS-56:3 What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.

PS-56:4 In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not

fear what flesh can do unto me.

PS-56:5 Every day they wrest my words: all their thoughts [are] against me for

evil.

PS-56:6 They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my

steps, when they wait for my soul.

PS-56:7 Shall they escape by iniquity? in [thine] anger cast down the people,

O God.

PS-56:8 Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: [are

they] not in thy book?

PS-56:9 When I cry [unto thee], then shall mine enemies turn back: this I

know; for God [is] for me.

PS-56:10 In God will I praise [his] word: in the LORD will I praise [his]

word.

PS-56:11 In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto

me.

PS-56:12 Thy vows [are] upon me, O God: I will render praises unto thee.

PS-56:13 For thou hast delivered my soul from death: [wilt] not [thou deliver]

my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living?

PS-57:1 To the chief Musician, Altaschith, Michtam of David, when he fled from

Saul in the cave. Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul

trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge, until

[these] calamities be overpast.

PS-57:2 I will cry unto God most high; unto God that performeth [all things]

for me.

PS-57:3 He shall send from heaven, and save me [from] the reproach of him that

would swallow me up. Selah. God shall send forth his mercy and his truth.

PS-57:4 My soul [is] among lions: [and] I lie [even among] them that are set

on fire, [even] the sons of men, whose teeth [are] spears and arrows, and

their tongue a sharp sword.

PS-57:5 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; [let] thy glory [be] above

all the earth.

PS-57:6 They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul is bowed down: they

have digged a pit before me, into the midst whereof they are fallen

[themselves]. Selah.

PS-57:7 My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give

praise.

PS-57:8 Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I [myself] will awake

early.

PS-57:9 I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing unto thee

among the nations.

PS-57:10 For thy mercy [is] great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the

clouds.

PS-57:11 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: [let] thy glory [be] above

all the earth.

PS-58:1 To the chief Musician, Altaschith, Michtam of David. Do ye indeed

speak righteousness, O congregation? do ye judge uprightly, O ye sons of men?

PS-58:2 Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh the violence of your hands

in the earth.

PS-58:3 The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they

be born, speaking lies.

PS-58:4 Their poison [is] like the poison of a serpent: [they are] like the

deaf adder [that] stoppeth her ear;

PS-58:5 Which will not hearken to the voice of charmers, charming never so

wisely.

PS-58:6 Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth: break out the great teeth of

the young lions, O LORD.

PS-58:7 Let them melt away as waters [which] run continually: [when] he

bendeth [his bow to shoot] his arrows, let them be as cut in pieces.

PS-58:8 As a snail [which] melteth, let [every one of them] pass away: [like]

the untimely birth of a woman, [that] they may not see the sun.

PS-58:9 Before your pots can feel the thorns, he shall take them away as with

a whirlwind, both living, and in [his] wrath.

PS-58:10 The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: he shall

wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.

PS-58:11 So that a man shall say, Verily [there is] a reward for the

righteous: verily he is a God that judgeth in the earth.

PS-59:1 To the chief Musician, Altaschith, Michtam of David; when Saul sent,

and they watched the house to kill him. Deliver me from mine enemies, O my

God: defend me from them that rise up against me.

PS-59:2 Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from bloody men.

PS-59:3 For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul: the mighty are gathered against

me; not [for] my transgression, nor [for] my sin, O LORD.

PS-59:4 They run and prepare themselves without [my] fault: awake to help me,

and behold.

PS-59:5 Thou therefore, O LORD God of hosts, the God of Israel, awake to visit

all the heathen: be not merciful to any wicked transgressors. Selah.

PS-59:6 They return at evening: they make a noise like a dog, and go round

about the city.

PS-59:7 Behold, they belch out with their mouth: swords [are] in their lips:

for who, [say they], doth hear?

PS-59:8 But thou, O LORD, shalt laugh at them; thou shalt have all the heathen

in derision.

PS-59:9 [Because of] his strength will I wait upon thee: for God [is] my

defence.

PS-59:10 The God of my mercy shall prevent me: God shall let me see [my

desire] upon mine enemies.

PS-59:11 Slay them not, lest my people forget: scatter them by thy power; and

bring them down, O Lord our shield.

PS-59:12 [For] the sin of their mouth [and] the words of their lips let them

even be taken in their pride: and for cursing and lying [which] they speak.

PS-59:13 Consume [them] in wrath, consume [them], that they [may] not [be]:

and let them know that God ruleth in Jacob unto the ends of the earth. Selah.

PS-59:14 And at evening let them return; [and] let them make a noise like a

dog, and go round about the city.

PS-59:15 Let them wander up and down for meat, and grudge if they be not

satisfied.

PS-59:16 But I will sing of thy power; yea, I will sing aloud of thy mercy in

the morning: for thou hast been my defence and refuge in the day of my

trouble.

PS-59:17 Unto thee, O my strength, will I sing: for God [is] my defence, [and]

the God of my mercy.

PS-60:1 To the chief Musician upon Shushaneduth, Michtam of David, to teach;

when he strove with Aramnaharaim and with Aramzobah, when Joab returned, and

smote of Edom in the valley of salt twelve thousand. O God, thou hast cast us

off, thou hast scattered us, thou hast been displeased; O turn thyself to us

again.

PS-60:2 Thou hast made the earth to tremble; thou hast broken it: heal the

breaches thereof; for it shaketh.

PS-60:3 Thou hast showed thy people hard things: thou hast made us to drink

the wine of astonishment.

PS-60:4 Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee, that it may be

displayed because of the truth. Selah.

PS-60:5 That thy beloved may be delivered; save [with] thy right hand, and

hear me.

PS-60:6 God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide

Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.

PS-60:7 Gilead [is] mine, and Manasseh [is] mine; Ephraim also [is] the

strength of mine head; Judah [is] my lawgiver;

PS-60:8 Moab [is] my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe: Philistia,

triumph thou because of me.

PS-60:9 Who will bring me [into] the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?

PS-60:10 [Wilt] not thou, O God, [which] hadst cast us off? and [thou], O God,

[which] didst not go out with our armies?

PS-60:11 Give us help from trouble: for vain [is] the help of man.

PS-60:12 Through God we shall do valiantly: for he [it is that] shall tread

down our enemies.

PS-61:1 To the chief Musician upon Neginah, [A Psalm] of David. Hear my cry, O

God; attend unto my prayer.

PS-61:2 From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is

overwhelmed: lead me to the rock [that] is higher than I.

PS-61:3 For thou hast been a shelter for me, [and] a strong tower from the

enemy.

PS-61:4 I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of

thy wings. Selah.

PS-61:5 For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: thou hast given [me] the heritage

of those that fear thy name.

PS-61:6 Thou wilt prolong the king's life: [and] his years as many

generations.

PS-61:7 He shall abide before God for ever: O prepare mercy and truth, [which]

may preserve him.

PS-61:8 So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, that I may daily perform

my vows.

PS-62:1 To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun, A Psalm of David. Truly my soul

waiteth upon God: from him [cometh] my salvation.

PS-62:2 He only [is] my rock and my salvation; [he is] my defence; I shall not

be greatly moved.

PS-62:3 How long will ye imagine mischief against a man? ye shall be slain all

of you: as a bowing wall [shall ye be, and as] a tottering fence.

PS-62:4 They only consult to cast [him] down from his excellency: they delight

in lies: they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah.

PS-62:5 My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation [is] from him.

PS-62:6 He only [is] my rock and my salvation: [he is] my defence; I shall not

be moved.

PS-62:7 In God [is] my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, [and]

my refuge, [is] in God.

PS-62:8 Trust in him at all times; [ye] people, pour out your heart before

him: God [is] a refuge for us. Selah.

PS-62:9 Surely men of low degree [are] vanity, [and] men of high degree [are]

a lie: to be laid in the balance, they [are] altogether [lighter] than vanity.

PS-62:10 Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery: if riches

increase, set not your heart [upon them].

PS-62:11 God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power [belongeth]

unto God.

PS-62:12 Also unto thee, O Lord, [belongeth] mercy: for thou renderest to

every man according to his work.

PS-63:1 A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah. O God, thou

[art] my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh

longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;

PS-63:2 To see thy power and thy glory, so [as] I have seen thee in the

sanctuary.

PS-63:3 Because thy lovingkindness [is] better than life, my lips shall praise

thee.

PS-63:4 Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy

name.

PS-63:5 My soul shall be satisfied as [with] marrow and fatness; and my mouth

shall praise [thee] with joyful lips:

PS-63:6 When I remember thee upon my bed, [and] meditate on thee in the

[night] watches.

PS-63:7 Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings

will I rejoice.

PS-63:8 My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.

PS-63:9 But those [that] seek my soul, to destroy [it], shall go into the

lower parts of the earth.

PS-63:10 They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.

PS-63:11 But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by him

shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.

PS-64:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. Hear my voice, O God, in my

prayer: preserve my life from fear of the enemy.

PS-64:2 Hide me from the secret counsel of the wicked; from the insurrection

of the workers of iniquity:

PS-64:3 Who whet their tongue like a sword, [and] bend [their bows to shoot]

their arrows, [even] bitter words:

PS-64:4 That they may shoot in secret at the perfect: suddenly do they shoot

at him, and fear not.

PS-64:5 They encourage themselves [in] an evil matter: they commune of laying

snares privily; they say, Who shall see them?

PS-64:6 They search out iniquities; they accomplish a diligent search: both

the inward [thought] of every one [of them], and the heart, [is] deep.

PS-64:7 But God shall shoot at them [with] an arrow; suddenly shall they be

wounded.

PS-64:8 So they shall make their own tongue to fall upon themselves: all that

see them shall flee away.

PS-64:9 And all men shall fear, and shall declare the work of God; for they

shall wisely consider of his doing.

PS-64:10 The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall trust in him; and

all the upright in heart shall glory.

PS-65:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm [and] Song of David. Praise waiteth for

thee, O God, in Sion: and unto thee shall the vow be performed.

PS-65:2 O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come.

PS-65:3 Iniquities prevail against me: [as for] our transgressions, thou shalt

purge them away.

PS-65:4 Blessed [is the man whom] thou choosest, and causest to approach [unto

thee, that] he may dwell in thy courts: we shall be satisfied with the

goodness of thy house, [even] of thy holy temple.

PS-65:5 [By] terrible things in righteousness wilt thou answer us, O God of

our salvation; [who art] the confidence of all the ends of the earth, and of

them that are afar off [upon] the sea:

PS-65:6 Which by his strength setteth fast the mountains; [being] girded with

power:

PS-65:7 Which stilleth the noise of the seas, the noise of their waves, and

the tumult of the people.

PS-65:8 They also that dwell in the uttermost parts are afraid at thy tokens:

thou makest the outgoings of the morning and evening to rejoice.

PS-65:9 Thou visitest the earth, and waterest it: thou greatly enrichest it

with the river of God, [which] is full of water: thou preparest them corn,

when thou hast so provided for it.

PS-65:10 Thou waterest the ridges thereof abundantly: thou settlest the

furrows thereof: thou makest it soft with showers: thou blessest the springing

thereof.

PS-65:11 Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; and thy paths drop fatness.

PS-65:12 They drop [upon] the pastures of the wilderness: and the little hills

rejoice on every side.

PS-65:13 The pastures are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered

over with corn; they shout for joy, they also sing.

PS-66:1 To the chief Musician, A Song [or] Psalm. Make a joyful noise unto

God, all ye lands:

PS-66:2 Sing forth the honour of his name: make his praise glorious.

PS-66:3 Say unto God, How terrible [art thou in] thy works! through the

greatness of thy power shall thine enemies submit themselves unto thee.

PS-66:4 All the earth shall worship thee, and shall sing unto thee; they shall

sing [to] thy name. Selah.

PS-66:5 Come and see the works of God: [he is] terrible [in his] doing toward

the children of men.

PS-66:6 He turned the sea into dry [land]: they went through the flood on

foot: there did we rejoice in him.

PS-66:7 He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes behold the nations: let not

the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah.

PS-66:8 O bless our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be

heard:

PS-66:9 Which holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be

moved.

PS-66:10 For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is

tried.

PS-66:11 Thou broughtest us into the net; thou laidst affliction upon our

loins.

PS-66:12 Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and

through water: but thou broughtest us out into a wealthy [place].

PS-66:13 I will go into thy house with burnt offerings: I will pay thee my

vows,

PS-66:14 Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath spoken, when I was in

trouble.

PS-66:15 I will offer unto thee burnt sacrifices of fatlings, with the incense

of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. Selah.

PS-66:16 Come [and] hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he

hath done for my soul.

PS-66:17 I cried unto him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue.

PS-66:18 If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear [me]:

PS-66:19 [But] verily God hath heard [me]; he hath attended to the voice of my

prayer.

PS-66:20 Blessed [be] God, which hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy

from me.

PS-67:1 To the chief Musician on Neginoth, A Psalm [or] Song. God be merciful

unto us, and bless us; [and] cause his face to shine upon us; Selah.

PS-67:2 That thy way may be known upon earth, thy saving health among all

nations.

PS-67:3 Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee.

PS-67:4 O let the nations be glad and sing for joy: for thou shalt judge the

people righteously, and govern the nations upon earth. Selah.

PS-67:5 Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee.

PS-67:6 [Then] shall the earth yield her increase; [and] God, [even] our own

God, shall bless us.

PS-67:7 God shall bless us; and all the ends of the earth shall fear him.

PS-68:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm [or] Song of David. Let God arise, let

his enemies be scattered: let them also that hate him flee before him.

PS-68:2 As smoke is driven away, [so] drive [them] away: as wax melteth before

the fire, [so] let the wicked perish at the presence of God.

PS-68:3 But let the righteous be glad; let them rejoice before God: yea, let

them exceedingly rejoice.

PS-68:4 Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: extol him that rideth upon

the heavens by his name JAH, and rejoice before him.

PS-68:5 A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, [is] God in his

holy habitation.

PS-68:6 God setteth the solitary in families: he bringeth out those which are

bound with chains: but the rebellious dwell in a dry [land].

PS-68:7 O God, when thou wentest forth before thy people, when thou didst

march through the wilderness; Selah:

PS-68:8 The earth shook, the heavens also dropped at the presence of God:

[even] Sinai itself [was moved] at the presence of God, the God of Israel.

PS-68:9 Thou, O God, didst send a plentiful rain, whereby thou didst confirm

thine inheritance, when it was weary.

PS-68:10 Thy congregation hath dwelt therein: thou, O God, hast prepared of

thy goodness for the poor.

PS-68:11 The Lord gave the word: great [was] the company of those that

published [it].

PS-68:12 Kings of armies did flee apace: and she that tarried at home divided

the spoil.

PS-68:13 Though ye have lien among the pots, [yet shall ye be as] the wings of

a dove covered with silver, and her feathers with yellow gold.

PS-68:14 When the Almighty scattered kings in it, it was [white] as snow in

Salmon.

PS-68:15 The hill of God [is as] the hill of Bashan; an high hill [as] the

hill of Bashan.

PS-68:16 Why leap ye, ye high hills? [this is] the hill [which] God desireth

to dwell in; yea, the LORD will dwell [in it] for ever.

PS-68:17 The chariots of God [are] twenty thousand, [even] thousands of

angels: the Lord [is] among them, [as in] Sinai, in the holy [place].

PS-68:18 Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led captivity captive: thou

hast received gifts for men; yea, [for] the rebellious also, that the LORD God

might dwell [among them].

PS-68:19 Blessed [be] the Lord, [who] daily loadeth us [with benefits,even]

the God of our salvation. Selah.

PS-68:20 [He that is] our God [is] the God of salvation; and unto GOD the Lord

[belong] the issues from death.

PS-68:21 But God shall wound the head of his enemies, [and] the hairy scalp of

such an one as goeth on still in his trespasses.

PS-68:22 The Lord said, I will bring again from Bashan, I will bring [my

people] again from the depths of the sea:

PS-68:23 That thy foot may be dipped in the blood of [thine] enemies, [and]

the tongue of thy dogs in the same.

PS-68:24 They have seen thy goings, O God; [even] the goings of my God, my

King, in the sanctuary.

PS-68:25 The singers went before, the players on instruments [followed] after;

among [them were] the damsels playing with timbrels.

PS-68:26 Bless ye God in the congregations, [even] the Lord, from the fountain

of Israel.

PS-68:27 There [is] little Benjamin [with] their ruler, the princes of Judah

[and] their council, the princes of Zebulun, [and] the princes of Naphtali.

PS-68:28 Thy God hath commanded thy strength: strengthen, O God, that which

thou hast wrought for us.

PS-68:29 Because of thy temple at Jerusalem shall kings bring presents unto

thee.

PS-68:30 Rebuke the company of spearmen, the multitude of the bulls, with the

calves of the people, [till every one] submit himself with pieces of silver:

scatter thou the people [that] delight in war.

PS-68:31 Princes shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall soon stretch out her

hands unto God.

PS-68:32 Sing unto God, ye kingdoms of the earth; O sing praises unto the

Lord; Selah:

PS-68:33 To him that rideth upon the heavens of heavens, [which were] of old;

lo, he doth send out his voice, [and that] a mighty voice.

PS-68:34 Ascribe ye strength unto God: his excellency [is] over Israel, and

his strength [is] in the clouds.

PS-68:35 O God, [thou art] terrible out of thy holy places: the God of Israel

[is] he that giveth strength and power unto [his] people. Blessed [be] God.

PS-69:1 To the chief Musician upon Shoshannim, [A Psalm] of David. Save me, O

God; for the waters are come in unto [my] soul.

PS-69:2 I sink in deep mire, where [there is] no standing: I am come into deep

waters, where the floods overflow me.

PS-69:3 I am weary of my crying: my throat is dried: mine eyes fail while I

wait for my God.

PS-69:4 They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of mine

head: they that would destroy me, [being] mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty:

then I restored [that] which I took not away.

PS-69:5 O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and my sins are not hid from thee.

PS-69:6 Let not them that wait on thee, O Lord GOD of hosts, be ashamed for my

sake: let not those that seek thee be confounded for my sake, O God of Israel.

PS-69:7 Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my

face.

PS-69:8 I am become a stranger unto my brethren, and an alien unto my mother's

children.

PS-69:9 For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up; and the reproaches of

them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.

PS-69:10 When I wept, [and chastened] my soul with fasting, that was to my

reproach.

PS-69:11 I made sackcloth also my garment; and I became a proverb to them.

PS-69:12 They that sit in the gate speak against me; and I [was] the song of

the drunkards.

PS-69:13 But as for me, my prayer [is] unto thee, O LORD, [in] an acceptable

time: O God, in the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy

salvation.

PS-69:14 Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink: let me be delivered

from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.

PS-69:15 Let not the waterflood overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me

up, and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me.

PS-69:16 Hear me, O LORD; for thy lovingkindness [is] good: turn unto me

according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.

PS-69:17 And hide not thy face from thy servant; for I am in trouble: hear me

speedily.

PS-69:18 Draw nigh unto my soul, [and] redeem it: deliver me because of mine

enemies.

PS-69:19 Thou hast known my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonour: mine

adversaries [are] all before thee.

PS-69:20 Reproach hath broken my heart; and I am full of heaviness: and I

looked [for some] to take pity, but [there was] none; and for comforters, but

I found none.

PS-69:21 They gave me also gall for my meat; and in my thirst they gave me

vinegar to drink.

PS-69:22 Let their table become a snare before them: and [that which should

have been] for [their] welfare, [let it become] a trap.

PS-69:23 Let their eyes be darkened, that they see not; and make their loins

continually to shake.

PS-69:24 Pour out thine indignation upon them, and let thy wrathful anger take

hold of them.

PS-69:25 Let their habitation be desolate; [and] let none dwell in their

tents.

PS-69:26 For they persecute [him] whom thou hast smitten; and they talk to the

grief of those whom thou hast wounded.

PS-69:27 Add iniquity unto their iniquity: and let them not come into thy

righteousness.

PS-69:28 Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and not be written

with the righteous.

PS-69:29 But I [am] poor and sorrowful: let thy salvation, O God, set me up on

high.

PS-69:30 I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with

thanksgiving.

PS-69:31 [This] also shall please the LORD better than an ox [or] bullock that

hath horns and hoofs.

PS-69:32 The humble shall see [this, and] be glad: and your heart shall live

that seek God.

PS-69:33 For the LORD heareth the poor, and despiseth not his prisoners.

PS-69:34 Let the heaven and earth praise him, the seas, and every thing that

moveth therein.

PS-69:35 For God will save Zion, and will build the cities of Judah: that they

may dwell there, and have it in possession.

PS-69:36 The seed also of his servants shall inherit it: and they that love

his name shall dwell therein.

PS-70:1 To the chief Musician, [A Psalm] of David, to bring to remembrance.

[Make haste], O God, to deliver me; make haste to help me, O LORD.

PS-70:2 Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek after my soul: let them

be turned backward, and put to confusion, that desire my hurt.

PS-70:3 Let them be turned back for a reward of their shame that say, Aha,

aha.

PS-70:4 Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: and let such

as love thy salvation say continually, Let God be magnified.

PS-70:5 But I [am] poor and needy: make haste unto me, O God: thou [art] my

help and my deliverer; O LORD, make no tarrying.

PS-71:1 In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust: let me never be put to confusion.

PS-71:2 Deliver me in thy righteousness, and cause me to escape: incline thine

ear unto me, and save me.

PS-71:3 Be thou my strong habitation, whereunto I may continually resort: thou

hast given commandment to save me; for thou [art] my rock and my fortress.

PS-71:4 Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand

of the unrighteous and cruel man.

PS-71:5 For thou [art] my hope, O Lord GOD: [thou art] my trust from my youth.

PS-71:6 By thee have I been holden up from the womb: thou art he that took me

out of my mother's bowels: my praise [shall be] continually of thee.

PS-71:7 I am as a wonder unto many; but thou [art] my strong refuge.

PS-71:8 Let my mouth be filled [with] thy praise [and with] thy honour all the

day.

PS-71:9 Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my

strength faileth.

PS-71:10 For mine enemies speak against me; and they that lay wait for my soul

take counsel together,

PS-71:11 Saying, God hath forsaken him: persecute and take him; for [there is]

none to deliver [him].

PS-71:12 O God, be not far from me: O my God, make haste for my help.

PS-71:13 Let them be confounded [and] consumed that are adversaries to my

soul; let them be covered [with] reproach and dishonour that seek my hurt.

PS-71:14 But I will hope continually, and will yet praise thee more and more.

PS-71:15 My mouth shall show forth thy righteousness [and] thy salvation all

the day; for I know not the numbers [thereof].

PS-71:16 I will go in the strength of the Lord GOD: I will make mention of thy

righteousness, [even] of thine only.

PS-71:17 O God, thou hast taught me from my youth: and hitherto have I

declared thy wondrous works.

PS-71:18 Now also when I am old and greyheaded, O God, forsake me not; until I

have showed thy strength unto [this] generation, [and] thy power to every one

[that] is to come.

PS-71:19 Thy righteousness also, O God, [is] very high, who hast done great

things: O God, who [is] like unto thee!

PS-71:20 [Thou], which hast showed me great and sore troubles, shalt quicken

me again, and shalt bring me up again from the depths of the earth.

PS-71:21 Thou shalt increase my greatness, and comfort me on every side.

PS-71:22 I will also praise thee with the psaltery, [even] thy truth, O my

God: unto thee will I sing with the harp, O thou Holy One of Israel.

PS-71:23 My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing unto thee; and my soul,

which thou hast redeemed.

PS-71:24 My tongue also shall talk of thy righteousness all the day long: for

they are confounded, for they are brought unto shame, that seek my hurt.

PS-72:1 [A Psalm] for Solomon. Give the king thy judgments, O God, and thy

righteousness unto the king's son.

PS-72:2 He shall judge thy people with righteousness, and thy poor with

judgment.

PS-72:3 The mountains shall bring peace to the people, and the little hills,

by righteousness.

PS-72:4 He shall judge the poor of the people, he shall save the children of

the needy, and shall break in pieces the oppressor.

PS-72:5 They shall fear thee as long as the sun and moon endure, throughout

all generations.

PS-72:6 He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass: as showers [that]

water the earth.

PS-72:7 In his days shall the righteous flourish; and abundance of peace so

long as the moon endureth.

PS-72:8 He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, and from the river unto

the ends of the earth.

PS-72:9 They that dwell in the wilderness shall bow before him; and his

enemies shall lick the dust.

PS-72:10 The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall bring presents: the

kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts.

PS-72:11 Yea, all kings shall fall down before him: all nations shall serve

him.

PS-72:12 For he shall deliver the needy when he crieth; the poor also, and

[him] that hath no helper.

PS-72:13 He shall spare the poor and needy, and shall save the souls of the

needy.

PS-72:14 He shall redeem their soul from deceit and violence: and precious

shall their blood be in his sight.

PS-72:15 And he shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of Sheba:

prayer also shall be made for him continually; [and] daily shall he be

praised.

PS-72:16 There shall be an handful of corn in the earth upon the top of the

mountains; the fruit thereof shall shake like Lebanon: and [they] of the city

shall flourish like grass of the earth.

PS-72:17 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.

PS-72:18 Blessed [be] the LORD God, the God of Israel, who only doeth wondrous

things.

PS-72:19 And blessed [be] his glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth

be filled [with] his glory; Amen, and Amen.

PS-72:20 The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.

PS-73:1 A Psalm of Asaph. Truly God [is] good to Israel, [even] to such as are

of a clean heart.

PS-73:2 But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had well nigh

slipped.

PS-73:3 For I was envious at the foolish, [when] I saw the prosperity of the

wicked.

PS-73:4 For [there are] no bands in their death: but their strength [is] firm.

PS-73:5 They [are] not in trouble [as other] men; neither are they plagued

like [other] men.

PS-73:6 Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth

them [as] a garment.

PS-73:7 Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart could

wish.

PS-73:8 They are corrupt, and speak wickedly [concerning] oppression: they

speak loftily.

PS-73:9 They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walketh

through the earth.

PS-73:10 Therefore his people return hither: and waters of a full [cup] are

wrung out to them.

PS-73:11 And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the most

High?

PS-73:12 Behold, these [are] the ungodly, who prosper in the world; they

increase [in] riches.

PS-73:13 Verily I have cleansed my heart [in] vain, and washed my hands in

innocency.

PS-73:14 For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every

morning.

PS-73:15 If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend [against] the

generation of thy children.

PS-73:16 When I thought to know this, it [was] too painful for me;

PS-73:17 Until I went into the sanctuary of God; [then] understood I their

end.

PS-73:18 Surely thou didst set them in slippery places: thou castedst them

down into destruction.

PS-73:19 How are they [brought] into desolation, as in a moment! they are

utterly consumed with terrors.

PS-73:20 As a dream when [one] awaketh; [so], O Lord, when thou awakest, thou

shalt despise their image.

PS-73:21 Thus my heart was grieved, and I was pricked in my reins.

PS-73:22 So foolish [was] I, and ignorant: I was [as] a beast before thee.

PS-73:23 Nevertheless I [am] continually with thee: thou hast holden [me] by

my right hand.

PS-73:24 Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me [to]

glory.

PS-73:25 Whom have I in heaven [but thee]? and [there is] none upon earth

[that] I desire beside thee.

PS-73:26 My flesh and my heart faileth: [but] God [is] the strength of my

heart, and my portion for ever.

PS-73:27 For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish: thou hast

destroyed all them that go a whoring from thee.

PS-73:28 But [it is] good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in

the Lord GOD, that I may declare all thy works.

PS-74:1 Maschil of Asaph. O God, why hast thou cast [us] off for ever? [why]

doth thine anger smoke against the sheep of thy pasture?

PS-74:2 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.

PS-74:3 Lift up thy feet unto the perpetual desolations; [even] all [that] the

enemy hath done wickedly in the sanctuary.

PS-74:4 Thine enemies roar in the midst of thy congregations; they set up

their ensigns [for] signs.

PS-74:5 [A man] was famous according as he had lifted up axes upon the thick

trees.

PS-74:6 But now they break down the carved work thereof at once with axes and

hammers.

PS-74:7 They have cast fire into thy sanctuary, they have defiled [by casting

down] the dwelling place of thy name to the ground.

PS-74:8 They said in their hearts, Let us destroy them together: they have

burned up all the synagogues of God in the land.

PS-74:9 We see not our signs: [there is] no more any prophet: neither [is

there] among us any that knoweth how long.

PS-74:10 O God, how long shall the adversary reproach? shall the enemy

blaspheme thy name for ever?

PS-74:11 Why withdrawest thou thy hand, even thy right hand? pluck [it] out of

thy bosom.

PS-74:12 For God [is] my King of old, working salvation in the midst of the

earth.

PS-74:13 Thou didst divide the sea by thy strength: thou brakest the heads of

the dragons in the waters.

PS-74:14 Thou brakest the heads of leviathan in pieces, [and] gavest him [to

be] meat to the people inhabiting the wilderness.

PS-74:15 Thou didst cleave the fountain and the flood: thou driedst up mighty

rivers.

PS-74:16 The day [is] thine, the night also [is] thine: thou hast prepared the

light and the sun.

PS-74:17 Thou hast set all the borders of the earth: thou hast made summer and

winter.

PS-74:18 Remember this, [that] the enemy hath reproached, O LORD, and [that]

the foolish people have blasphemed thy name.

PS-74:19 O deliver not the soul of thy turtledove unto the multitude [of the

wicked]: forget not the congregation of thy poor for ever.

PS-74:20 Have respect unto the covenant: for the dark places of the earth are

full of the habitations of cruelty.

PS-74:21 O let not the oppressed return ashamed: let the poor and needy praise

thy name.

PS-74:22 Arise, O God, plead thine own cause: remember how the foolish man

reproacheth thee daily.

PS-74:23 Forget not the voice of thine enemies: the tumult of those that rise

up against thee increaseth continually.

PS-75:1 To the chief Musician, Altaschith, A Psalm [or] Song of Asaph. Unto

thee, O God, do we give thanks, [unto thee] do we give thanks: for [that] thy

name is near thy wondrous works declare.

PS-75:2 When I shall receive the congregation I will judge uprightly.

PS-75:3 The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up the

pillars of it. Selah.

PS-75:4 I said unto the fools, Deal not foolishly: and to the wicked, Lift not

up the horn:

PS-75:5 Lift not up your horn on high: speak [not with] a stiff neck.

PS-75:6 For promotion [cometh] neither from the east, nor from the west, nor

from the south.

PS-75:7 But God [is] the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.

PS-75:8 For in the hand of the LORD [there is] a cup, and the wine is red; it

is full of mixture; and he poureth out of the same: but the dregs thereof, all

the wicked of the earth shall wring [them] out, [and] drink [them].

PS-75:9 But I will declare for ever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

PS-75:10 All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; [but] the horns of

the righteous shall be exalted.

PS-76:1 To the chief Musician on Neginoth, A Psalm [or] Song of Asaph. In

Judah [is] God known: his name [is] great in Israel.

PS-76:2 In Salem also is his tabernacle, and his dwelling place in Zion.

PS-76:3 There brake he the arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and

the battle. Selah.

PS-76:4 Thou [art] more glorious [and] excellent than the mountains of prey.

PS-76:5 The stouthearted are spoiled, they have slept their sleep: and none of

the men of might have found their hands.

PS-76:6 At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, both the chariot and horse are cast

into a dead sleep.

PS-76:7 Thou, [even] thou, [art] to be feared: and who may stand in thy sight

when once thou art angry?

PS-76:8 Thou didst cause judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared,

and was still,

PS-76:9 When God arose to judgment, to save all the meek of the earth. Selah.

PS-76:10 Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: the remainder of wrath

shalt thou restrain.

PS-76:11 Vow, and pay unto the LORD your God: let all that be round about him

bring presents unto him that ought to be feared.

PS-76:12 He shall cut off the spirit of princes: [he is] terrible to the kings

of the earth.

PS-77:1 To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun, A Psalm of Asaph. I cried unto God

with my voice, [even] unto God with my voice; and he gave ear unto me.

PS-77:2 In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord: my sore ran in the night,

and ceased not: my soul refused to be comforted.

PS-77:3 I remembered God, and was troubled: I complained, and my spirit was

overwhelmed. Selah.

PS-77:4 Thou holdest mine eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speak.

PS-77:5 I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times.

PS-77:6 I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own

heart: and my spirit made diligent search.

PS-77:7 Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favourable no more?

PS-77:8 Is his mercy clean gone for ever? doth [his] promise fail for

evermore?

PS-77:9 Hath God forgotten to be gracious? hath he in anger shut up his tender

mercies? Selah.

PS-77:10 And I said, This [is] my infirmity: [but I will remember] the years

of the right hand of the most High.

PS-77:11 I will remember the works of the LORD: surely I will remember thy

wonders of old.

PS-77:12 I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings.

PS-77:13 Thy way, O God, [is] in the sanctuary: who [is so] great a God as

[our] God?

PS-77:14 Thou [art] the God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy

strength among the people.

PS-77:15 Thou hast with [thine] arm redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and

Joseph. Selah.

PS-77:16 The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they were afraid:

the depths also were troubled.

PS-77:17 The clouds poured out water: the skies sent out a sound: thine arrows

also went abroad.

PS-77:18 The voice of thy thunder [was] in the heaven: the lightnings

lightened the world: the earth trembled and shook.

PS-17:19 Thy way [is] in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy

footsteps are not known.

PS-77:20 Thou leddest thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.

PS-78:1 Maschil of Asaph. Give ear, O my people, [to] my law: incline your

ears to the words of my mouth.

PS-78:2 I will open my mouth in a parable: I will utter dark sayings of old:

PS-78:3 Which we have heard and known, and our fathers have told us.

PS-78:4 We will not hide [them] from their children, showing to the generation

to come the praises of the LORD, and his strength, and his wonderful works

that he hath done.

PS-78:5 For he established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a law in

Israel, which he commanded our fathers, that they should make them known to

their children:

PS-78:6 That the generation to come might know [them, even] the children

[which] should be born; [who] should arise and declare [them] to their

children:

PS-78:7 That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of

God, but keep his commandments:

PS-78:8 And might not be as their fathers, a stubborn and rebellious

generation; a generation [that] set not their heart aright, and whose spirit

was not stedfast with God.

PS-78:9 The children of Ephraim, [being] armed, [and] carrying bows, turned

back in the day of battle.

PS-78:10 They kept not the covenant of God, and refused to walk in his law;

PS-78:11 And forgat his works, and his wonders that he had showed them.

PS-78:12 Marvellous things did he in the sight of their fathers, in the land

of Egypt, [in] the field of Zoan.

PS-78:13 He divided the sea, and caused them to pass through; and he made the

waters to stand as an heap.

PS-78:14 In the daytime also he led them with a cloud, and all the night with

a light of fire.

PS-78:15 He clave the rocks in the wilderness, and gave [them] drink as [out

of] the great depths.

PS-78:16 He brought streams also out of the rock, and caused waters to run

down like rivers.

PS-78:17 And they sinned yet more against him by provoking the most High in

the wilderness.

PS-78:18 And they tempted God in their heart by asking meat for their lust.

PS-78:19 Yea, they spake against God; they said, Can God furnish a table in

the wilderness?

PS-78:20 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?

PS-78:21 Therefore the LORD heard [this], and was wroth: so a fire was kindled

against Jacob, and anger also came up against Israel;

PS-78:22 Because they believed not in God, and trusted not in his salvation:

PS-78:23 Though he had commanded the clouds from above, and opened the doors

of heaven,

PS-78:24 And had rained down manna upon them to eat, and had given them of the

corn of heaven.

PS-78:25 Man did eat angels' food: he sent them meat to the full.

PS-78:26 He caused an east wind to blow in the heaven: and by his power he

brought in the south wind.

PS-78:27 He rained flesh also upon them as dust, and feathered fowls like as

the sand of the sea:

PS-78:28 And he let [it] fall in the midst of their camp, round about their

habitations.

PS-78:29 So they did eat, and were well filled: for he gave them their own

desire;

PS-78:30 They were not estranged from their lust. But while their meat [was]

yet in their mouths,

PS-78:31 The wrath of God came upon them, and slew the fattest of them, and

smote down the chosen [men] of Israel.

PS-78:32 For all this they sinned still, and believed not for his wondrous

works.

PS-78:33 Therefore their days did he consume in vanity, and their years in

trouble.

PS-78:34 When he slew them, then they sought him: and they returned and

inquired early after God.

PS-78:35 And they remembered that God [was] their rock, and the high God their

redeemer.

PS-78:36 Nevertheless they did flatter him with their mouth, and they lied

unto him with their tongues.

PS-78:37 For their heart was not right with him, neither were they stedfast in

his covenant.

PS-78:38 But he, [being] full of compassion, forgave [their] iniquity, and

destroyed [them] not: yea, many a time turned he his anger away, and did not

stir up all his wrath.

PS-78:39 For he remembered that they [were but] flesh; a wind that passeth

away, and cometh not again.

PS-78:40 How oft did they provoke him in the wilderness, [and] grieve him in

the desert!

PS-78:41 Yea, they turned back and tempted God, and limited the Holy One of

Israel.

PS-78:42 They remembered not his hand, [nor] the day when he delivered them

from the enemy.

PS-78:43 How he had wrought his signs in Egypt, and his wonders in the field

of Zoan:

PS-78:44 And had turned their rivers into blood; and their floods, that they

could not drink.

PS-78:45 He sent divers sorts of flies among them, which devoured them; and

frogs, which destroyed them.

PS-78:46 He gave also their increase unto the caterpillar, and their labour

unto the locust.

PS-78:47 He destroyed their vines with hail, and their sycamore trees with

frost.

PS-78:48 He gave up their cattle also to the hail, and their flocks to hot

thunderbolts.

PS-78:49 He cast upon them the fierceness of his anger, wrath, and

indignation, and trouble, by sending evil angels [among them].

PS-78:50 He made a way to his anger; he spared not their soul from death, but

gave their life over to the pestilence;

PS-78:51 And smote all the firstborn in Egypt; the chief of [their] strength

in the tabernacles of Ham:

PS-78:52 But made his own people to go forth like sheep, and guided them in

the wilderness like a flock.

PS-78:53 And he led them on safely, so that they feared not: but the sea

overwhelmed their enemies.

PS-78:54 And he brought them to the border of his sanctuary, [even to] this

mountain, [which] his right hand had purchased.

PS-78:55 He cast out the heathen also before them, and divided them an

inheritance by line, and made the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tents.

PS-78:56 Yet they tempted and provoked the most high God, and kept not his

testimonies:

PS-78:57 But turned back, and dealt unfaithfully like their fathers: they were

turned aside like a deceitful bow.

PS-78:58 For they provoked him to anger with their high places, and moved him

to jealousy with their graven images.

PS-78:59 When God heard [this], he was wroth, and greatly abhorred Israel:

PS-78:60 So that he forsook the tabernacle of Shiloh, the tent [which] he

placed among men;

PS-78:61 And delivered his strength into captivity, and his glory into the

enemy's hand.

PS-78:62 He gave his people over also unto the sword; and was wroth with his

inheritance.

PS-78:63 The fire consumed their young men; and their maidens were not given

to marriage.

PS-78:64 Their priests fell by the sword; and their widows made no

lamentation.

PS-78:65 Then the Lord awaked as one out of sleep, [and] like a mighty man

that shouteth by reason of wine.

PS-78:66 And he smote his enemies in the hinder parts: he put them to a

perpetual reproach.

PS-78:67 Moreover he refused the tabernacle of Joseph, and chose not the tribe

of Ephraim:

PS-78:68 But chose the tribe of Judah, the mount Zion which he loved.

PS-78:69 And he built his sanctuary like high [palaces], like the earth which

he hath established for ever.

PS-78:70 He chose David also his servant, and took him from the sheepfolds:

PS-78:71 From following the ewes great with young he brought him to feed Jacob

his people, and Israel his inheritance.

PS-78:72 So he fed them according to the integrity of his heart; and guided

them by the skilfulness of his hands.

PS-79:1 A Psalm of Asaph. O God, the heathen are come into thine inheritance;

thy holy temple have they defiled; they have laid Jerusalem on heaps.

PS-79:2 The dead bodies of thy servants have they given [to be] meat unto the

fowls of the heaven, the flesh of thy saints unto the beasts of the earth.

PS-79:3 Their blood have they shed like water round about Jerusalem; and

[there was] none to bury [them].

PS-79:4 We are become a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and derision to

them that are round about us.

PS-79:5 How long, LORD? wilt thou be angry for ever? shall thy jealousy burn

like fire?

PS-79:6 Pour out thy wrath upon the heathen that have not known thee, and upon

the kingdoms that have not called upon thy name.

PS-79:7 For they have devoured Jacob, and laid waste his dwelling place.

PS-79:8 O remember not against us former iniquities: let thy tender mercies

speedily prevent us: for we are brought very low.

PS-79:9 Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of thy name: and

deliver us, and purge away our sins, for thy name's sake.

PS-79:10 Wherefore should the heathen say, Where [is] their God? let him be

known among the heathen in our sight [by] the revenging of the blood of thy

servants [which is] shed.

PS-79:11 Let the sighing of the prisoner come before thee; according to the

greatness of thy power preserve thou those that are appointed to die;

PS-79:12 And render unto our neighbours sevenfold into their bosom their

reproach, wherewith they have reproached thee, O Lord.

PS-79:13 So we thy people and sheep of thy pasture will give thee thanks for

ever: we will show forth thy praise to all generations.

PS-80:1 To the chief Musician upon Shoshannimeduth, A Psalm of Asaph. Give

ear, O Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; thou that

dwellest [between] the cherubims, shine forth.

PS-80:2 Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh stir up thy strength, and

come [and] save us.

PS-80:3 Turn us again, O God, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be

saved.

PS-80:4 O LORD God of hosts, how long wilt thou be angry against the prayer of

thy people?

PS-80:5 Thou feedest them with the bread of tears; and givest them tears to

drink in great measure.

PS-80:6 Thou makest us a strife unto our neighbours: and our enemies laugh

among themselves.

PS-80:7 Turn us again, O God of hosts, and cause thy face to shine; and we

shall be saved.

PS-80:8 Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt: thou hast cast out the heathen,

and planted it.

PS-80:9 Thou preparedst [room] before it, and didst cause it to take deep

root, and it filled the land.

PS-80:10 The hills were covered with the shadow of it, and the boughs thereof

[were like] the goodly cedars.

PS-80:11 She sent out her boughs unto the sea, and her branches unto the

river.

PS-80:12 Why hast thou [then] broken down her hedges, so that all they which

pass by the way do pluck her?

PS-80:13 The boar out of the wood doth waste it, and the wild beast of the

field doth devour it.

PS-80:14 Return, we beseech thee, O God of hosts: look down from heaven, and

behold, and visit this vine;

PS-80:15 And the vineyard which thy right hand hath planted, and the branch

[that] thou madest strong for thyself.

PS-80:16 [It is] burned with fire, [it is] cut down: they perish at the rebuke

of thy countenance.

PS-80:17 Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, upon the son of man

[whom] thou madest strong for thyself.

PS-80:18 So will not we go back from thee: quicken us, and we will call upon

thy name.

PS-80:19 Turn us again, O LORD God of hosts, cause thy face to shine; and we

shall be saved.

PS-81:1 To the chief Musician upon Gittith, [A Psalm] of Asaph. Sing aloud

unto God our strength: make a joyful noise unto the God of Jacob.

PS-81:2 Take a psalm, and bring hither the timbrel, the pleasant harp with the

psaltery.

PS-81:3 Blow up the trumpet in the new moon, in the time appointed, on our

solemn feast day.

PS-81:4 For this [was] a statute for Israel, [and] a law of the God of Jacob.

PS-81:5 This he ordained in Joseph [for] a testimony, when he went out through

the land of Egypt: [where] I heard a language [that] I understood not.

PS-81:6 I removed his shoulder from the burden: his hands were delivered from

the pots.

PS-81:7 Thou calledst in trouble, and I delivered thee; I answered thee in the

secret place of thunder: I proved thee at the waters of Meribah. Selah.

PS-81:8 Hear, O my people, and I will testify unto thee: O Israel, if thou

wilt hearken unto me;

PS-81:9 There shall no strange god be in thee; neither shalt thou worship any

strange god.

PS-81:10 I [am] the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt:

open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.

PS-81:11 But my people would not hearken to my voice; and Israel would none of

me.

PS-81:12 So I gave them up unto their own hearts' lust: [and] they walked in

their own counsels.

PS-81:13 Oh that my people had hearkened unto me, [and] Israel had walked in

my ways!

PS-81:14 I should soon have subdued their enemies, and turned my hand against

their adversaries.

PS-81:15 The haters of the LORD should have submitted themselves unto him: but

their time should have endured for ever.

PS-81:16 He should have fed them also with the finest of the wheat: and with

honey out of the rock should I have satisfied thee.

PS-82:1 A Psalm of Asaph. God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; he

judgeth among the gods.

PS-82:2 How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked?

Selah.

PS-82:3 Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and needy.

PS-82:4 Deliver the poor and needy: rid [them] out of the hand of the wicked.

PS-82:5 They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness:

all the foundations of the earth are out of course.

PS-82:6 I have said, Ye [are] gods; and all of you [are] children of the most

High.

PS-82:7 But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.

PS-82:8 Arise, O God, judge the earth: for thou shalt inherit all nations.

PS-83:1 A Song [or] Psalm of Asaph. Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy

peace, and be not still, O God.

PS-83:2 For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have

lifted up the head.

PS-83:3 They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted

against thy hidden ones.

PS-83:4 They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from [being] a nation;

that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.

PS-83:5 For they have consulted together with one consent: they are

confederate against thee:

PS-83:6 The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the

Hagarenes;

PS-83:7 Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of

Tyre;

PS-83:8 Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot.

Selah.

PS-83:9 Do unto them as [unto] the Midianites; as [to] Sisera, as [to] Jabin,

at the brook of Kison:

PS-83:10 [Which] perished at Endor: they became [as] dung for the earth.

PS-83:11 Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as

Zebah, and as Zalmunna:

PS-83:12 Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.

PS-83:13 O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.

PS-83:14 As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on

fire;

PS-83:15 So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy

storm.

PS-83:16 Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O LORD.

PS-83:17 Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to

shame, and perish:

PS-83:18 That [men] may know that thou, whose name alone [is] JEHOVAH, [art]

the most high over all the earth.

PS-84:1 To the chief Musician upon Gittith, A Psalm for the sons of Korah. How

amiable [are] thy tabernacles, O LORD of hosts!

PS-84:2 My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of the LORD: my

heart and my flesh crieth out for the living God.

PS-84:3 Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for

herself, where she may lay her young, [even] thine altars, O LORD of hosts, my

King, and my God.

PS-84:4 Blessed [are] they that dwell in thy house: they will be still

praising thee. Selah.

PS-84:5 Blessed [is] the man whose strength [is] in thee; in whose heart [are]

the ways [of them].

PS-84:6 [Who] passing through the valley of Baca make it a well; the rain also

filleth the pools.

PS-84:7 They go from strength to strength, [every one of them] in Zion

appeareth before God.

PS-84:8 O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer: give ear, O God of Jacob. Selah.

PS-84:9 Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of thine anointed.

PS-84:10 For a day in thy courts [is] better than a thousand. I had rather be

a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.

PS-84:11 For the LORD God [is] a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and

glory: no good [thing] will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.

PS-84:12 O LORD of hosts, blessed [is] the man that trusteth in thee.

PS-85:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm for the sons of Korah. LORD, thou hast

been favourable unto thy land: thou hast brought back the captivity of Jacob.

PS-85:2 Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people, thou hast covered all

their sin. Selah.

PS-85:3 Thou hast taken away all thy wrath: thou hast turned [thyself] from

the fierceness of thine anger.

PS-85:4 Turn us, O God of our salvation, and cause thine anger toward us to

cease.

PS-85:5 Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? wilt thou draw out thine anger to

all generations?

PS-85:6 Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee?

PS-85:7 Show us thy mercy, O LORD, and grant us thy salvation.

PS-85:8 I will hear what God the LORD will speak: for he will speak peace unto

his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn again to folly.

PS-85:9 Surely his salvation [is] nigh them that fear him; that glory may

dwell in our land.

PS-85:10 Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed

[each other].

PS-85:11 Truth shall spring out of the earth; and righteousness shall look

down from heaven.

PS-85:12 Yea, the LORD shall give [that which is] good; and our land shall

yield her increase.

PS-85:13 Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set [us] in the way of

his steps.

PS-86:1 A Prayer of David. Bow down thine ear, O LORD, hear me: for I [am]

poor and needy.

PS-86:2 Preserve my soul; for I [am] holy: O thou my God, save thy servant

that trusteth in thee.

PS-86:3 Be merciful unto me, O Lord: for I cry unto thee daily.

PS-86:4 Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up

my soul.

PS-86:5 For thou, Lord, [art] good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in

mercy unto all them that call upon thee.

PS-86:6 Give ear, O LORD, unto my prayer; and attend to the voice of my

supplications.

PS-86:7 In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt answer

me.

PS-86:8 Among the gods [there is] none like unto thee, O Lord; neither [are

there any works] like unto thy works.

PS-86:9 All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O

Lord; and shall glorify thy name.

PS-86:10 For thou [art] great, and doest wondrous things: thou [art] God

alone.

PS-86:11 Teach me thy way, O LORD; I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to

fear thy name.

PS-86:12 I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart: and I will

glorify thy name for evermore.

PS-86:13 For great [is] thy mercy toward me: and thou hast delivered my soul

from the lowest hell.

PS-86:14 O God, the proud are risen against me, and the assemblies of violent

[men] have sought after my soul; and have not set thee before them.

PS-86:15 But thou, O Lord, [art] a God full of compassion, and gracious,

longsuffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth.

PS-86:16 O turn unto me, and have mercy upon me; give thy strength unto thy

servant, and save the son of thine handmaid.

PS-86:17 Show me a token for good; that they which hate me may see [it], and

be ashamed: because thou, LORD, hast holpen me, and comforted me.

PS-87:1 A Psalm [or] Song for the sons of Korah. His foundation [is] in the

holy mountains.

PS-87:2 The LORD loveth the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of

Jacob.

PS-87:3 Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. selah.

PS-87:4 I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon to them that know me: behold

Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this [man] was born there.

PS-87:5 And of Zion it shall be said, This and that man was born in her: and

the highest himself shall establish her.

PS-87:6 The LORD shall count, when he writeth up the people, [that] this [man]

was born there. Selah.

PS-87:7 As well the singers as the players on instruments [shall be there]:

all my springs [are] in thee.

PS-88:1 A Song [or] Psalm for the sons of Korah, to the chief Musician upon

Mahalath Leannoth, Maschil of Heman the Ezrahite. O LORD God of my salvation,

I have cried day [and] night before thee:

PS-88:2 Let my prayer come before thee: incline thine ear unto my cry;

PS-88:3 For my soul is full of troubles: and my life draweth nigh unto the

grave.

PS-88:4 I am counted with them that go down into the pit: I am as a man [that

hath] no strength:

PS-88:5 Free among the dead, like the slain that lie in the grave, whom thou

rememberest no more: and they are cut off from thy hand.

PS-88:6 Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in darkness, in the deeps.

PS-88:7 Thy wrath lieth hard upon me, and thou hast afflicted [me] with all

thy waves. Selah.

PS-88:8 Thou hast put away mine acquaintance far from me; thou hast made me an

abomination unto them: [I am] shut up, and I cannot come forth.

PS-88:9 Mine eye mourneth by reason of affliction: LORD, I have called daily

upon thee, I have stretched out my hands unto thee.

PS-88:10 Wilt thou show wonders to the dead? shall the dead arise [and] praise

thee? Selah.

PS-88:11 Shall thy lovingkindness be declared in the grave? [or] thy

faithfulness in destruction?

PS-88:12 Shall thy wonders be known in the dark? and thy righteousness in the

land of forgetfulness?

PS-88:13 But unto thee have I cried, O LORD; and in the morning shall my

prayer prevent thee.

PS-88:14 LORD, why castest thou off my soul? [why] hidest thou thy face from

me?

PS-88:15 I [am] afflicted and ready to die from [my] youth up: [while] I

suffer thy terrors I am distracted.

PS-88:16 Thy fierce wrath goeth over me; thy terrors have cut me off.

PS-88:17 They came round about me daily like water; they compassed me about

together.

PS-88:18 Lover and friend hast thou put far from me, [and] mine acquaintance

into darkness.

PS-89:1 Maschil of Ethan the Ezrahite. I will sing of the mercies of the LORD

for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations.

PS-89:2 For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever: thy faithfulness

shalt thou establish in the very heavens.

PS-89:3 I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my

servant,

PS-89:4 Thy seed will I establish for ever, and build up thy throne to all

generations. Selah.

PS-89:5 And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O LORD: thy faithfulness

also in the congregation of the saints.

PS-89:6 For who in the heaven can be compared unto the LORD? [who] among the

sons of the mighty can be likened unto the LORD?

PS-89:7 God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to be

had in reverence of all [them that are] about him.

PS-89:8 O LORD God of hosts, who [is] a strong LORD like unto thee? or to thy

faithfulness round about thee?

PS-89:9 Thou rulest the raging of the sea: when the waves thereof arise, thou

stillest them.

PS-89:10 Thou hast broken Rahab in pieces, as one that is slain; thou hast

scattered thine enemies with thy strong arm.

PS-89:11 The heavens [are] thine, the earth also [is] thine: [as for] the

world and the fulness thereof, thou hast founded them.

PS-89:12 The north and the south thou hast created them: Tabor and Hermon

shall rejoice in thy name.

PS-89:13 Thou hast a mighty arm: strong is thy hand, [and] high is thy right

hand.

PS-89:14 Justice and judgment [are] the habitation of thy throne: mercy and

truth shall go before thy face.

PS-89:15 Blessed [is] the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk,

O LORD, in the light of thy countenance.

PS-89:16 In thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness

shall they be exalted.

PS-89:17 For thou [art] the glory of their strength: and in thy favour our

horn shall be exalted.

PS-89:18 For the LORD [is] our defence; and the Holy One of Israel [is] our

king.

PS-89:19 Then thou spakest in vision to thy holy one, and saidst, I have laid

help upon [one that is] mighty; I have exalted [one] chosen out of the people.

PS-89:20 I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him:

PS-89:21 With whom my hand shall be established: mine arm also shall

strengthen him.

PS-89:22 The enemy shall not exact upon him; nor the son of wickedness afflict

him.

PS-89:23 And I will beat down his foes before his face, and plague them that

hate him.

PS-89:24 But my faithfulness and my mercy [shall be] with him: and in my name

shall his horn be exalted.

PS-89:25 I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the

rivers.

PS-89:26 He shall cry unto me, Thou [art] my father, my God, and the rock of

my salvation.

PS-89:27 Also I will make him [my] firstborn, higher than the kings of the

earth.

PS-89:28 My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall

stand fast with him.

PS-89:29 His seed also will I make [to endure] for ever, and his throne as the

days of heaven.

PS-89:30 If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;

PS-89:31 If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments;

PS-89:32 Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their

iniquity with stripes.

PS-89:33 Nevertheless my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, nor

suffer my faithfulness to fail.

PS-89:34 My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of

my lips.

PS-89:35 Once have I sworn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David.

PS-89:36 His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me.

PS-89:37 It shall be established for ever as the moon, and [as] a faithful

witness in heaven. Selah.

PS-89:38 But thou hast cast off and abhorred, thou hast been wroth with thine

anointed.

PS-89:39 Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned

his crown [by casting it] to the ground.

PS-89:40 Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast brought his strong

holds to ruin.

PS-89:41 All that pass by the way spoil him: he is a reproach to his

neighbours.

PS-89:42 Thou hast set up the right hand of his adversaries; thou hast made

all his enemies to rejoice.

PS-89:43 Thou hast also turned the edge of his sword, and hast not made him to

stand in the battle.

PS-89:44 Thou hast made his glory to cease, and cast his throne down to the

ground.

PS-89:45 The days of his youth hast thou shortened: thou hast covered him with

shame. Selah.

PS-89:46 How long, LORD? wilt thou hide thyself for ever? shall thy wrath burn

like fire?

PS-89:47 Remember how short my time is: wherefore hast thou made all men in

vain?

PS-89:48 What man [is he that] liveth, and shall not see death? shall he

deliver his soul from the hand of the grave? Selah.

PS-89:49 Lord, where [are] thy former lovingkindnesses, [which] thou swarest

unto David in thy truth?

PS-89:50 Remember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants; [how] I do bear in my

bosom [the reproach of] all the mighty people;

PS-89:51 Wherewith thine enemies have reproached, O LORD; wherewith they have

reproached the footsteps of thine anointed.

PS-89:52 Blessed [be] the LORD for evermore. Amen, and Amen.

PS-90:1 A Prayer of Moses the man of God. LORD, thou hast been our dwelling

place in all generations.

PS-90:2 Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the

earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou [art] God.

PS-90:3 Thou turnest man to destruction; and sayest, Return, ye children of

men.

PS-90:4 For a thousand years in thy sight [are but] as yesterday when it is

past, and [as] a watch in the night.

PS-90:5 Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are [as] a sleep: in the

morning [they are] like grass [which] groweth up.

PS-90:6 In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth up; in the evening it is

cut down, and withereth.

PS-90:7 For we are consumed by thine anger, and by thy wrath are we troubled.

PS-90:8 Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, our secret [sins] in the

light of thy countenance.

PS-90:9 For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: we spend our years as a

tale [that is told].

PS-90:10 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.

PS-90:11 Who knoweth the power of thine anger? even according to thy fear, [so

is] thy wrath.

PS-90:12 So teach [us] to number our days, that we may apply [our] hearts unto

wisdom.

PS-90:13 Return, O LORD, how long? and let it repent thee concerning thy

servants.

PS-90:14 O satisfy us early with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad

all our days.

PS-90:15 Make us glad according to the days [wherein] thou hast afflicted us,

[and] the years [wherein] we have seen evil.

PS-90:16 Let thy work appear unto thy servants, and thy glory unto their

children.

PS-90:17 And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us: and establish thou

the work of our hands upon us; yea, the work of our hands establish thou it.

PS-91:1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide

under the shadow of the Almighty.

PS-91:2 I will say of the LORD, [He is] my refuge and my fortress: my God; in

him will I trust.

PS-91:3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, [and] from

the noisome pestilence.

PS-91:4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou

trust: his truth [shall be thy] shield and buckler.

PS-91:5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; [nor] for the arrow

[that] flieth by day;

PS-91:6 [Nor] for the pestilence [that] walketh in darkness; [nor] for the

destruction [that] wasteth at noonday.

PS-91:7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand;

[but] it shall not come nigh thee.

PS-91:8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the

wicked.

PS-91:9 Because thou hast made the LORD, [which is] my refuge, [even] the most

High, thy habitation;

PS-91:10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh

thy dwelling.

PS-91:11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all

thy ways.

PS-91:12 They shall bear thee up in [their] hands, lest thou dash thy foot

against a stone.

PS-91:13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the

dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

PS-91:14 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I

will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

PS-91:15 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I [will be] with him in

trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.

PS-91:16 With long life will I satisfy him, and show him my salvation.

PS-92:1 A Psalm [or] Song for the sabbath day. [It is a] good [thing] to give

thanks unto the LORD, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High:

PS-92:2 To show forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness

every night,

PS-92:3 Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; upon the

harp with a solemn sound.

PS-92:4 For thou, LORD, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in

the works of thy hands.

PS-92:5 O LORD, how great are thy works! [and] thy thoughts are very deep.

PS-92:6 A brutish man knoweth not; neither doth a fool understand this.

PS-92:7 When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of

iniquity do flourish; [it is] that they shall be destroyed for ever:

PS-92:8 But thou, LORD, [art most] high for evermore.

PS-92:9 For, lo, thine enemies, O LORD, for, lo, thine enemies shall perish;

all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.

PS-92:10 But my horn shalt thou exalt like [the horn of] an unicorn: I shall

be anointed with fresh oil.

PS-92:11 Mine eye also shall see [my desire] on mine enemies, [and] mine ears

shall hear [my desire] of the wicked that rise up against me.

PS-92:12 The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a

cedar in Lebanon.

PS-92:13 Those that be planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the

courts of our God.

PS-92:14 They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and

flourishing;

PS-92:15 To show that the LORD [is] upright: [he is] my rock, and [there is]

no unrighteousness in him.

PS-93:1 The LORD reigneth, he is clothed with majesty; the LORD is clothed

with strength, [wherewith] he hath girded himself: the world also is

stablished, that it cannot be moved.

PS-93:2 Thy throne [is] established of old: thou [art] from everlasting.

PS-93:3 The floods have lifted up, O LORD, the floods have lifted up their

voice; the floods lift up their waves.

PS-93:4 The LORD on high [is] mightier than the noise of many waters, [yea,

than] the mighty waves of the sea.

PS-93:5 Thy testimonies are very sure: holiness becometh thine house, O LORD,

for ever.

PS-94:1 O LORD God, to whom vengeance belongeth; O God, to whom vengeance

belongeth, show thyself.

PS-94:2 Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth: render a reward to the

proud.

PS-94:3 LORD, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked triumph?

PS-94:4 [How long] shall they utter [and] speak hard things? [and] all the

workers of iniquity boast themselves?

PS-94:5 They break in pieces thy people, O LORD, and afflict thine heritage.

PS-94:6 They slay the widow and the stranger, and murder the fatherless.

PS-94:7 Yet they say, The LORD shall not see, neither shall the God of Jacob

regard [it].

PS-94:8 Understand, ye brutish among the people: and [ye] fools, when will ye

be wise?

PS-94:9 He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? he that formed the eye,

shall he not see?

PS-94:10 He that chastiseth the heathen, shall not he correct? he that

teacheth man knowledge, [shall not he know]?

PS-94:11 The LORD knoweth the thoughts of man, that they [are] vanity.

PS-94:12 Blessed [is] the man whom thou chastenest, O LORD, and teachest him

out of thy law;

PS-94:13 That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity, until the

pit be digged for the wicked.

PS-94:14 For the LORD will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake

his inheritance.

PS-94:15 But judgment shall return unto righteousness: and all the upright in

heart shall follow it.

PS-94:16 Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? [or] who will stand up

for me against the workers of iniquity?

PS-94:17 Unless the LORD [had been] my help, my soul had almost dwelt in

silence.

PS-94:18 When I said, My foot slippeth; thy mercy, O LORD, held me up.

PS-94:19 In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my

soul.

PS-94:20 Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with thee, which frameth

mischief by a law?

PS-94:21 They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous,

and condemn the innocent blood.

PS-94:22 But the LORD is my defence; and my God [is] the rock of my refuge.

PS-94:23 And he shall bring upon them their own iniquity, and shall cut them

off in their own wickedness; [yea], the LORD our God shall cut them off.

PS-95:1 O come, let us sing unto the LORD: let us make a joyful noise to the

rock of our salvation.

PS-95:2 Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful

noise unto him with psalms.

PS-95:3 For the LORD [is] a great God, and a great King above all gods.

PS-95:4 In his hand [are] the deep places of the earth: the strength of the

hills [is] his also.

PS-95:5 The sea [is] his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry [land].

PS-95:6 O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our

maker.

PS-95:7 For he [is] our God; and we [are] the people of his pasture, and the

sheep of his hand. To day if ye will hear his voice,

PS-95:8 Harden not your heart, as in the provocation, [and] as [in] the day of

temptation in the wilderness:

PS-95:9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work.

PS-95:10 Forty years long was I grieved with [this] generation, and said, It

[is] a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known my ways:

PS-95:11 Unto whom I sware in my wrath that they should not enter into my

rest.

PS-96:1 O sing unto the LORD a new song: sing unto the LORD, all the earth.

PS-96:2 Sing unto the LORD, bless his name; show forth his salvation from day

to day.

PS-96:3 Declare his glory among the heathen, his wonders among all people.

PS-96:4 For the LORD [is] great, and greatly to be praised: he [is] to be

feared above all gods.

PS-96:5 For all the gods of the nations [are] idols: but the LORD made the

heavens.

PS-96:6 Honour and majesty [are] before him: strength and beauty [are] in his

sanctuary.

PS-96:7 Give unto the LORD, O ye kindreds of the people, give unto the LORD

glory and strength.

PS-96:8 Give unto the LORD the glory [due unto] his name: bring an offering,

and come into his courts.

PS-96:9 O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, all the

earth.

PS-96:10 Say among the heathen [that] the LORD reigneth: the world also shall

be established that it shall not be moved: he shall judge the people

righteously.

PS-96:11 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; let the sea roar,

and the fulness thereof.

PS-96:12 Let the field be joyful, and all that [is] therein: then shall all

the trees of the wood rejoice

PS-96:13 Before the LORD: for he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth: he

shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.

PS-97:1 The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles

be glad [thereof].

PS-97:2 Clouds and darkness [are] round about him: righteousness and judgment

[are] the habitation of his throne.

PS-97:3 A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about.

PS-97:4 His lightnings enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled.

PS-97:5 The hills melted like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence

of the Lord of the whole earth.

PS-97:6 The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people see his

glory.

PS-97:7 Confounded be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves

of idols: worship him, all [ye] gods.

PS-97:8 Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced because

of thy judgments, O LORD.

PS-97:9 For thou, LORD, [art] high above all the earth: thou art exalted far

above all gods.

PS-97:10 Ye that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his

saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.

PS-97:11 Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in

heart.

PS-97:12 Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance

of his holiness.

PS-98:1 A Psalm. O sing unto the LORD a new song; for he hath done marvellous

things: his right hand, and his holy arm, hath gotten him the victory.

PS-98:2 The LORD hath made known his salvation: his righteousness hath he

openly showed in the sight of the heathen.

PS-98:3 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.

PS-98:4 Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all the earth: make a loud noise,

and rejoice, and sing praise.

PS-98:5 Sing unto the LORD with the harp; with the harp, and the voice of a

psalm.

PS-98:6 With trumpets and sound of cornet make a joyful noise before the LORD,

the King.

PS-98:7 Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that

dwell therein.

PS-98:8 Let the floods clap [their] hands: let the hills be joyful together

PS-98:9 Before the LORD; for he cometh to judge the earth: with righteousness

shall he judge the world, and the people with equity.

PS-99:1 The LORD reigneth; let the people tremble: he sitteth [between] the

cherubims; let the earth be moved.

PS-99:2 The LORD [is] great in Zion; and he [is] high above all the people.

PS-99:3 Let them praise thy great and terrible name; [for] it [is] holy.

PS-99:4 The king's strength also loveth judgment; thou dost establish equity,

thou executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob.

PS-99:5 Exalt ye the LORD our God, and worship at his footstool; [for] he [is]

holy.

PS-99:6 Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call

upon his name; they called upon the LORD, and he answered them.

PS-99:7 He spake unto them in the cloudy pillar: they kept his testimonies,

and the ordinance [that] he gave them.

PS-99:8 Thou answeredst them, O LORD our God: thou wast a God that forgavest

them, though thou tookest vengeance of their inventions.

PS-99:9 Exalt the LORD our God, and worship at his holy hill; for the LORD our

God [is] holy.

PS-100:1 A Psalm of praise. Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands.

PS-100:2 Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with singing.

PS-100:3 Know ye that the LORD he [is] God: [it is] he [that] hath made us,

and not we ourselves; [we are] his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

PS-100:4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, [and] into his courts with

praise: be thankful unto him, [and] bless his name.

PS-100:5 For the LORD [is] good; his mercy [is] everlasting; and his truth

[endureth] to all generations.

PS-101:1 A Psalm of David. I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto thee, O

LORD, will I sing.

PS-101:2 I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when wilt thou come

unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.

PS-101:3 I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them

that turn aside; [it] shall not cleave to me.

PS-101:4 A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked

[person].

PS-101:5 Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that

hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.

PS-101:6 Mine eyes [shall be] upon the faithful of the land, that they may

dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me.

PS-101:7 He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that

telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.

PS-101:8 I will early destroy all the wicked of the land; that I may cut off

all wicked doers from the city of the LORD.

PS-102:1 A Prayer of the afflicted, when he is overwhelmed, and poureth out

his complaint before the LORD. Hear my prayer, O LORD, and let my cry come

unto thee.

PS-102:2 Hide not thy face from me in the day [when] I am in trouble; incline

thine ear unto me: in the day [when] I call answer me speedily.

PS-102:3 For my days are consumed like smoke, and my bones are burned as an

hearth.

PS-102:4 My heart is smitten, and withered like grass; so that I forget to eat

my bread.

PS-102:5 By reason of the voice of my groaning my bones cleave to my skin.

PS-102:6 I am like a pelican of the wilderness: I am like an owl of the

desert.

PS-102:7 I watch, and am as a sparrow alone upon the house top.

PS-102:8 Mine enemies reproach me all the day; [and] they that are mad against

me are sworn against me.

PS-102:9 For I have eaten ashes like bread, and mingled my drink with weeping,

PS-102:10 Because of thine indignation and thy wrath: for thou hast lifted me

up, and cast me down.

PS-102:11 My days [are] like a shadow that declineth; and I am withered like

grass.

PS-102:12 But thou, O LORD, shalt endure for ever; and thy remembrance unto

all generations.

PS-102:13 Thou shalt arise, [and] have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favour

her, yea, the set time, is come.

PS-102:14 For thy servants take pleasure in her stones, and favour the dust

thereof.

PS-102:15 So the heathen shall fear the name of the LORD, and all the kings of

the earth thy glory.

PS-102:16 When the LORD shall build up Zion, he shall appear in his glory.

PS-102:17 He will regard the prayer of the destitute, and not despise their

prayer.

PS-102:18 This shall be written for the generation to come: and the people

which shall be created shall praise the LORD.

PS-102:19 For he hath looked down from the height of his sanctuary; from

heaven did the LORD behold the earth;

PS-102:20 To hear the groaning of the prisoner; to loose those that are

appointed to death;

PS-102:21 To declare the name of the LORD in Zion, and his praise in

Jerusalem;

PS-102:22 When the people are gathered together, and the kingdoms, to serve

the LORD.

PS-102:23 He weakened my strength in the way; he shortened my days.

PS-102:24 I said, O my God, take me not away in the midst of my days: thy

years [are] throughout all generations.

PS-102:25 Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens

[are] the work of thy hands.

PS-102:26 They shall perish, but thou shalt endure: yea, all of them shall wax

old like a garment; as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall be

changed:

PS-102:27 But thou [art] the same, and thy years shall have no end.

PS-102:28 The children of thy servants shall continue, and their seed shall be

established before thee.

PS-103:1 [A Psalm] of David. Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within

me, [bless] his holy name.

PS-103:2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:

PS-103:3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;

PS-103:4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with

lovingkindness and tender mercies;

PS-103:5 Who satisfieth thy mouth with good [things; so that] thy youth is

renewed like the eagle's.

PS-103:6 The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are

oppressed.

PS-103:7 He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of

Israel.

PS-103:8 The LORD [is] merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in

mercy.

PS-103:9 He will not always chide: neither will he keep [his anger] for ever.

PS-103:10 He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according

to our iniquities.

PS-103:11 For as the heaven is high above the earth, [so] great is his mercy

toward them that fear him.

PS-103:12 As far as the east is from the west, [so] far hath he removed our

transgressions from us.

PS-103:13 Like as a father pitieth [his] children, [so] the LORD pitieth them

that fear him.

PS-103:14 For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we [are] dust.

PS-103:15 [As for] man, his days [are] as grass: as a flower of the field, so

he flourisheth.

PS-103:16 For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof

shall know it no more.

PS-103:17 But the mercy of the LORD [is] from everlasting to everlasting upon

them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children's children;

PS-103:18 To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his

commandments to do them.

PS-103:19 The LORD hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom

ruleth over all.

PS-103:20 Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his

commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.

PS-103:21 Bless ye the LORD, all [ye] his hosts; [ye] ministers of his, that

do his pleasure.

PS-103:22 Bless the LORD, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless

the LORD, O my soul.

PS-104:1 Bless the LORD, O my soul. O LORD my God, thou art very great; thou

art clothed with honour and majesty.

PS-104:2 Who coverest [thyself] with light as [with] a garment: who stretchest

out the heavens like a curtain:

PS-104:3 Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters: who maketh the

clouds his chariot: who walketh upon the wings of the wind:

PS-104:4 Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire:

PS-104:5 [Who] laid the foundations of the earth, [that] it should not be

removed for ever.

PS-104:6 Thou coveredst it with the deep as [with] a garment: the waters stood

above the mountains.

PS-104:7 At thy rebuke they fled; at the voice of thy thunder they hasted

away.

PS-104:8 They go up by the mountains; they go down by the valleys unto the

place which thou hast founded for them.

PS-104:9 Thou hast set a bound that they may not pass over; that they turn not

again to cover the earth.

PS-104:10 He sendeth the springs into the valleys, [which] run among the

hills.

PS-104:11 They give drink to every beast of the field: the wild asses quench

their thirst.

PS-104:12 By them shall the fowls of the heaven have their habitation, [which]

sing among the branches.

PS-104:13 He watereth the hills from his chambers: the earth is satisfied with

the fruit of thy works.

PS-104:14 He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the

service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth;

PS-104:15 And wine [that] maketh glad the heart of man, [and] oil to make

[his] face to shine, and bread [which] strengtheneth man's heart.

PS-104:16 The trees of the LORD are full [of sap]; the cedars of Lebanon,

which he hath planted;

PS-104:17 Where the birds make their nests: [as for] the stork, the fir trees

[are] her house.

PS-104:18 The high hills [are] a refuge for the wild goats; [and] the rocks

for the conies.

PS-104:19 He appointed the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth his going down.

PS-104:20 Thou makest darkness, and it is night: wherein all the beasts of the

forest do creep [forth].

PS-104:21 The young lions roar after their prey, and seek their meat from God.

PS-104:22 The sun ariseth, they gather themselves together, and lay them down

in their dens.

PS-104:23 Man goeth forth unto his work and to his labour until the evening.

PS-104:24 O LORD, how manifold are thy works! in wisdom hast thou made them

all: the earth is full of thy riches.

PS-104:25 [So is] this great and wide sea, wherein [are] things creeping

innumerable, both small and great beasts.

PS-104:26 There go the ships: [there is] that leviathan, [whom] thou hast made

to play therein.

PS-104:27 These wait all upon thee; that thou mayest give [them] their meat in

due season.

PS-104:28 [That] thou givest them they gather: thou openest thine hand, they

are filled with good.

PS-104:29 Thou hidest thy face, they are troubled: thou takest away their

breath, they die, and return to their dust.

PS-104:30 Thou sendest forth thy spirit, they are created: and thou renewest

the face of the earth.

PS-104:31 The glory of the LORD shall endure for ever: the LORD shall rejoice

in his works.

PS-104:32 He looketh on the earth, and it trembleth: he toucheth the hills,

and they smoke.

PS-104:33 I will sing unto the LORD as long as I live: I will sing praise to

my God while I have my being.

PS-104:34 My meditation of him shall be sweet: I will be glad in the LORD.

PS-104:35 Let the sinners be consumed out of the earth, and let the wicked be

no more. Bless thou the LORD, O my soul. Praise ye the LORD.

PS-105:1 O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon his name: make known his deeds

among the people.

PS-105:2 Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him: talk ye of all his wondrous

works.

PS-105:3 Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek

the LORD.

PS-105:4 Seek the LORD, and his strength: seek his face evermore.

PS-105:5 Remember his marvellous works that he hath done; his wonders, and the

judgments of his mouth;

PS-105:6 O ye seed of Abraham his servant, ye children of Jacob his chosen.

PS-105:7 He [is] the LORD our God: his judgments [are] in all the earth.

PS-105:8 He hath remembered his covenant for ever, the word [which] he

commanded to a thousand generations.

PS-105:9 Which [covenant] he made with Abraham, and his oath unto Isaac;

PS-105:10 And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a law, [and] to Israel [for]

an everlasting covenant:

PS-105:11 Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your

inheritance:

PS-105:12 When they were [but] a few men in number; yea, very few, and

strangers in it.

PS-105:13 When they went from one nation to another, from [one] kingdom to

another people;

PS-105:14 He suffered no man to do them wrong: yea, he reproved kings for

their sakes;

PS-105:15 [Saying], Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.

PS-105:16 Moreover he called for a famine upon the land: he brake the whole

staff of bread.

PS-105:17 He sent a man before them, [even] Joseph, [who] was sold for a

servant:

PS-105:18 Whose feet they hurt with fetters: he was laid in iron:

PS-105:19 Until the time that his word came: the word of the LORD tried him.

PS-105:20 The king sent and loosed him; [even] the ruler of the people, and

let him go free.

PS-105:21 He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his substance:

PS-105:22 To bind his princes at his pleasure; and teach his senators wisdom.

PS-105:23 Israel also came into Egypt; and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.

PS-105:24 And he increased his people greatly; and made them stronger than

their enemies.

PS-105:25 He turned their heart to hate his people, to deal subtly with his

servants.

PS-105:26 He sent Moses his servant; [and] Aaron whom he had chosen.

PS-105:27 They showed his signs among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.

PS-105:28 He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against

his word.

PS-105:29 He turned their waters into blood, and slew their fish.

PS-105:30 Their land brought forth frogs in abundance, in the chambers of

their kings.

PS-105:31 He spake, and there came divers sorts of flies, [and] lice in all

their coasts.

PS-105:32 He gave them hail for rain, [and] flaming fire in their land.

PS-105:33 He smote their vines also and their fig trees; and brake the trees

of their coasts.

PS-105:34 He spake, and the locusts came, and caterpillars, and that without

number,

PS-105:35 And did eat up all the herbs in their land, and devoured the fruit

of their ground.

PS-105:36 He smote also all the firstborn in their land, the chief of all

their strength.

PS-105:37 He brought them forth also with silver and gold: and [there was] not

one feeble [person] among their tribes.

PS-105:38 Egypt was glad when they departed: for the fear of them fell upon

them.

PS-105:39 He spread a cloud for a covering; and fire to give light in the

night.

PS-105:40 [The people] asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with

the bread of heaven.

PS-105:41 He opened the rock, and the waters gushed out; they ran in the dry

places [like] a river.

PS-105:42 For he remembered his holy promise, [and] Abraham his servant.

PS-105:43 And he brought forth his people with joy, [and] his chosen with

gladness:

PS-105:44 And gave them the lands of the heathen: and they inherited the

labour of the people;

PS-105:45 That they might observe his statutes, and keep his laws. Praise ye

the LORD.

PS-106:1 Praise ye the LORD. O give thanks unto the LORD; for [he is] good:

for his mercy [endureth] for ever.

PS-106:2 Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD? [who] can show forth all

his praise?

PS-106:3 Blessed [are] they that keep judgment, [and] he that doeth

righteousness at all times.

PS-106:4 Remember me, O LORD, with the favour [that thou bearest unto] thy

people: O visit me with thy salvation;

PS-106:5 That I may see the good of thy chosen, that I may rejoice in the

gladness of thy nation, that I may glory with thine inheritance.

PS-106:6 We have sinned with our fathers, we have committed iniquity, we have

done wickedly.

PS-106:7 Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt; they remembered not

the multitude of thy mercies; but provoked [him] at the sea, [even] at the Red

sea.

PS-106:8 Nevertheless he saved them for his name's sake, that he might make

his mighty power to be known.

PS-106:9 He rebuked the Red sea also, and it was dried up: so he led them

through the depths, as through the wilderness.

PS-106:10 And he saved them from the hand of him that hated [them], and

redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.

PS-106:11 And the waters covered their enemies: there was not one of them

left.

PS-106:12 Then believed they his words; they sang his praise.

PS-106:13 They soon forgat his works; they waited not for his counsel:

PS-106:14 But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted God in the

desert.

PS-106:15 And he gave them their request; but sent leanness into their soul.

PS-106:16 They envied Moses also in the camp, [and] Aaron the saint of the

LORD.

PS-106:17 The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of

Abiram.

PS-106:18 And a fire was kindled in their company; the flame burned up the

wicked.

PS-106:19 They made a calf in Horeb, and worshipped the molten image.

PS-106:20 Thus they changed their glory into the similitude of an ox that

eateth grass.

PS-106:21 They forgat God their saviour, which had done great things in Egypt;

PS-106:22 Wondrous works in the land of Ham, [and] terrible things by the Red

sea.

PS-106:23 Therefore he said that he would destroy them, had not Moses his

chosen stood before him in the breach, to turn away his wrath, lest he should

destroy [them].

PS-106:24 Yea, they despised the pleasant land, they believed not his word:

PS-106:25 But murmured in their tents, [and] hearkened not unto the voice of

the LORD.

PS-106:26 Therefore he lifted up his hand against them, to overthrow them in

the wilderness:

PS-106:27 To overthrow their seed also among the nations, and to scatter them

in the lands.

PS-106:28 They joined themselves also unto Baalpeor, and ate the sacrifices of

the dead.

PS-106:29 Thus they provoked [him] to anger with their inventions: and the

plague brake in upon them.

PS-106:30 Then stood up Phinehas, and executed judgment: and [so] the plague

was stayed.

PS-106:31 And that was counted unto him for righteousness unto all generations

for evermore.

PS-106:32 They angered [him] also at the waters of strife, so that it went ill

with Moses for their sakes:

PS-106:33 Because they provoked his spirit, so that he spake unadvisedly with

his lips.

PS-106:34 They did not destroy the nations, concerning whom the LORD commanded

them:

PS-106:35 But were mingled among the heathen, and learned their works.

PS-106:36 And they served their idols: which were a snare unto them.

PS-106:37 Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils,

PS-106:38 And shed innocent blood, [even] the blood of their sons and of their

daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan: and the land was

polluted with blood.

PS-106:39 Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with

their own inventions.

PS-106:40 Therefore was the wrath of the LORD kindled against his people,

insomuch that he abhorred his own inheritance.

PS-106:41 And he gave them into the hand of the heathen; and they that hated

them ruled over them.

PS-106:42 Their enemies also oppressed them, and they were brought into

subjection under their hand.

PS-106:43 Many times did he deliver them; but they provoked [him] with their

counsel, and were brought low for their iniquity.

PS-106:44 Nevertheless he regarded their affliction, when he heard their cry:

PS-106:45 And he remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to

the multitude of his mercies.

PS-106:46 He made them also to be pitied of all those that carried them

captives.

PS-106:47 Save us, O LORD our God, and gather us from among the heathen, to

give thanks unto thy holy name, [and] to triumph in thy praise.

PS-106:48 Blessed [be] the LORD God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting:

and let all the people say, Amen. Praise ye the LORD.

PS-107:1 O give thanks unto the LORD, for [he is] good: for his mercy

[endureth] for ever.

PS-107:2 Let the redeemed of the LORD say [so], whom he hath redeemed from the

hand of the enemy;

PS-107:3 And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west,

from the north, and from the south.

PS-107:4 They wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way; they found no city

to dwell in.

PS-107:5 Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.

PS-107:6 Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, [and] he delivered

them out of their distresses.

PS-107:7 And he led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a city

of habitation.

PS-107:8 Oh that [men] would praise the LORD [for] his goodness, and [for] his

wonderful works to the children of men!

PS-107:9 For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with

goodness.

PS-107:10 Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, [being] bound in

affliction and iron;

PS-107:11 Because they rebelled against the words of God, and contemned the

counsel of the most High:

PS-107:12 Therefore he brought down their heart with labour; they fell down,

and [there was] none to help.

PS-107:13 Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, [and] he saved them

out of their distresses.

PS-107:14 He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and brake

their bands in sunder.

PS-107:15 Oh that [men] would praise the LORD [for] his goodness, and [for]

his wonderful works to the children of men!

PS-107:16 For he hath broken the gates of brass, and cut the bars of iron in

sunder.

PS-107:17 Fools because of their transgression, and because of their

iniquities, are afflicted.

PS-107:18 Their soul abhorreth all manner of meat; and they draw near unto the

gates of death.

PS-107:19 Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, [and] he saveth them

out of their distresses.

PS-107:20 He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered [them] from their

destructions.

PS-107:21 Oh that [men] would praise the LORD [for] his goodness, and [for]

his wonderful works to the children of men!

PS-107:22 And let them sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare

his works with rejoicing.

PS-107:23 They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great

waters;

PS-107:24 These see the works of the LORD, and his wonders in the deep.

PS-107:25 For he commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth up the

waves thereof.

PS-107:26 They mount up to the heaven, they go down again to the depths: their

soul is melted because of trouble.

PS-107:27 They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at

their wit's end.

PS-107:28 Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he bringeth them

out of their distresses.

PS-107:29 He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are still.

PS-107:30 Then are they glad because they be quiet; so he bringeth them unto

their desired haven.

PS-107:31 Oh that [men] would praise the LORD [for] his goodness, and [for]

his wonderful works to the children of men!

PS-107:32 Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people, and

praise him in the assembly of the elders.

PS-107:33 He turneth rivers into a wilderness, and the watersprings into dry

ground;

PS-107:34 A fruitful land into barrenness, for the wickedness of them that

dwell therein.

PS-107:35 He turneth the wilderness into a standing water, and dry ground into

watersprings.

PS-107:36 And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, that they may prepare a

city for habitation;

PS-107:37 And sow the fields, and plant vineyards, which may yield fruits of

increase.

PS-107:38 He blesseth them also, so that they are multiplied greatly; and

suffereth not their cattle to decrease.

PS-107:39 Again, they are minished and brought low through oppression,

affliction, and sorrow.

PS-107:40 He poureth contempt upon princes, and causeth them to wander in the

wilderness, [where there is] no way.

PS-107:41 Yet setteth he the poor on high from affliction, and maketh [him]

families like a flock.

PS-107:42 The righteous shall see [it], and rejoice: and all iniquity shall

stop her mouth.

PS-107:43 Whoso [is] wise, and will observe these [things], even they shall

understand the lovingkindness of the LORD.

PS-108:1 A Song [or] Psalm of David. O God, my heart is fixed; I will sing and

give praise, even with my glory.

PS-108:2 Awake, psaltery and harp: I [myself] will awake early.

PS-108:3 I will praise thee, O LORD, among the people: and I will sing praises

unto thee among the nations.

PS-108:4 For thy mercy [is] great above the heavens: and thy truth [reacheth]

unto the clouds.

PS-108:5 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory above all

the earth;

PS-108:6 That thy beloved may be delivered: save [with] thy right hand, and

answer me.

PS-108:7 God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide

Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.

PS-108:8 Gilead [is] mine; Manasseh [is] mine; Ephraim also [is] the strength

of mine head; Judah [is] my lawgiver;

PS-108:9 Moab [is] my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe; over

Philistia will I triumph.

PS-108:10 Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?

PS-108:11 [Wilt] not [thou], O God, [who] hast cast us off? and wilt not thou,

O God, go forth with our hosts?

PS-108:12 Give us help from trouble: for vain [is] the help of man.

PS-108:13 Through God we shall do valiantly: for he [it is that] shall tread

down our enemies.

PS-109:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. Hold not thy peace, O God of

my praise;

PS-109:2 For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened

against me: they have spoken against me with a lying tongue.

PS-109:3 They compassed me about also with words of hatred; and fought against

me without a cause.

PS-109:4 For my love they are my adversaries: but I [give myself unto] prayer.

PS-109:5 And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.

PS-109:6 Set thou a wicked man over him: and let Satan stand at his right

hand.

PS-109:7 When he shall be judged, let him be condemned: and let his prayer

become sin.

PS-109:8 Let his days be few; [and] let another take his office.

PS-109:9 Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.

PS-109:10 Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them seek

[their bread] also out of their desolate places.

PS-109:11 Let the extortioner catch all that he hath; and let the strangers

spoil his labour.

PS-109:12 Let there be none to extend mercy unto him: neither let there be any

to favour his fatherless children.

PS-109:13 Let his posterity be cut off; [and] in the generation following let

their name be blotted out.

PS-109:14 Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with the LORD; and let

not the sin of his mother be blotted out.

PS-109:15 Let them be before the LORD continually, that he may cut off the

memory of them from the earth.

PS-109:16 Because that he remembered not to show mercy, but persecuted the

poor and needy man, that he might even slay the broken in heart.

PS-109:17 As he loved cursing, so let it come unto him: as he delighted not in

blessing, so let it be far from him.

PS-109:18 As he clothed himself with cursing like as with his garment, so let

it come into his bowels like water, and like oil into his bones.

PS-109:19 Let it be unto him as the garment [which] covereth him, and for a

girdle wherewith he is girded continually.

PS-109:20 [Let] this [be] the reward of mine adversaries from the LORD, and of

them that speak evil against my soul.

PS-109:21 But do thou for me, O GOD the Lord, for thy name's sake: because thy

mercy [is] good, deliver thou me.

PS-109:22 For I [am] poor and needy, and my heart is wounded within me.

PS-109:23 I am gone like the shadow when it declineth: I am tossed up and down

as the locust.

PS-109:24 My knees are weak through fasting; and my flesh faileth of fatness.

PS-109:25 I became also a reproach unto them: [when] they looked upon me they

shaked their heads.

PS-109:26 Help me, O LORD my God: O save me according to thy mercy:

PS-109:27 That they may know that this [is] thy hand; [that] thou, LORD, hast

done it.

PS-109:28 Let them curse, but bless thou: when they arise, let them be

ashamed; but let thy servant rejoice.

PS-109:29 Let mine adversaries be clothed with shame, and let them cover

themselves with their own confusion, as with a mantle.

PS-109:30 I will greatly praise the LORD with my mouth; yea, I will praise him

among the multitude.

PS-109:31 For he shall stand at the right hand of the poor, to save [him] from

those that condemn his soul.

PS-110:1 A Psalm of David. The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right

hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.

PS-110:2 The LORD shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in

the midst of thine enemies.

PS-110:3 Thy people [shall be] willing in the day of thy power, in the

beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy

youth.

PS-110:4 The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou [art] a priest for

ever after the order of Melchizedek.

PS-110:5 The Lord at thy right hand shall strike through kings in the day of

his wrath.

PS-110:6 He shall judge among the heathen, he shall fill [the places] with the

dead bodies; he shall wound the heads over many countries.

PS-110:7 He shall drink of the brook in the way: therefore shall he lift up

the head.

PS-111:1 Praise ye the LORD. I will praise the LORD with [my] whole heart, in

the assembly of the upright, and [in] the congregation.

PS-111:2 The works of the LORD [are] great, sought out of all them that have

pleasure therein.

PS-111:3 His work [is] honourable and glorious: and his righteousness endureth

for ever.

PS-111:4 He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: the LORD [is]

gracious and full of compassion.

PS-111:5 He hath given meat unto them that fear him: he will ever be mindful

of his covenant.

PS-111:6 He hath showed his people the power of his works, that he may give

them the heritage of the heathen.

PS-111:7 The works of his hands [are] verity and judgment; all his

commandments [are] sure.

PS-111:8 They stand fast for ever and ever, [and are] done in truth and

uprightness.

PS-111:9 He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant

for ever: holy and reverend [is] his name.

PS-111:10 The fear of the LORD [is] the beginning of wisdom: a good

understanding have all they that do [his commandments]: his praise endureth

for ever.

PS-112:1 Praise ye the LORD. Blessed [is] the man [that] feareth the LORD,

[that] delighteth greatly in his commandments.

PS-112:2 His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the upright

shall be blessed.

PS-112:3 Wealth and riches [shall be] in his house: and his righteousness

endureth for ever.

PS-112:4 Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: [he is]

gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.

PS-112:5 A good man showeth favour, and lendeth: he will guide his affairs

with discretion.

PS-112:6 Surely he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in

everlasting remembrance.

PS-112:7 He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting

in the LORD.

PS-112:8 His heart [is] established, he shall not be afraid, until he see [his

desire] upon his enemies.

PS-112:9 He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor; his righteousness

endureth for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honour.

PS-112:10 The wicked shall see [it], and be grieved; he shall gnash with his

teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.

PS-113:1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise, O ye servants of the LORD, praise the

name of the LORD.

PS-113:2 Blessed be the name of the LORD from this time forth and for

evermore.

PS-113:3 From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the LORD's

name [is] to be praised.

PS-113:4 The LORD [is] high above all nations, [and] his glory above the

heavens.

PS-113:5 Who [is] like unto the LORD our God, who dwelleth on high,

PS-113:6 Who humbleth [himself] to behold [the things that are] in heaven, and

in the earth!

PS-113:7 He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, [and] lifteth the needy out

of the dunghill;

PS-113:8 That he may set [him] with princes, [even] with the princes of his

people.

PS-113:9 He maketh the barren woman to keep house, [and to be] a joyful mother

of children. Praise ye the LORD.

PS-114:1 When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of

strange language;

PS-114:2 Judah was his sanctuary, [and] Israel his dominion.

PS-114:3 The sea saw [it], and fled: Jordan was driven back.

PS-114:4 The mountains skipped like rams, [and] the little hills like lambs.

PS-114:5 What [ailed] thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan,

[that] thou wast driven back?

PS-114:6 Ye mountains, [that] ye skipped like rams; [and] ye little hills,

like lambs?

PS-114:7 Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of

the God of Jacob;

PS-114:8 Which turned the rock [into] a standing water, the flint into a

fountain of waters.

PS-115:1 Not unto us, O LORD, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory, for

thy mercy, [and] for thy truth's sake.

PS-115:2 Wherefore should the heathen say, Where [is] now their God?

PS-115:3 But our God [is] in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he hath

pleased.

PS-115:4 Their idols [are] silver and gold, the work of men's hands.

PS-115:5 They have mouths, but they speak not: eyes have they, but they see

not:

PS-115:6 They have ears, but they hear not: noses have they, but they smell

not:

PS-115:7 They have hands, but they handle not: feet have they, but they walk

not: neither speak they through their throat.

PS-115:8 They that make them are like unto them; [so is] every one that

trusteth in them.

PS-115:9 O Israel, trust thou in the LORD: he [is] their help and their

shield.

PS-115:10 O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD: he [is] their help and their

shield.

PS-115:11 Ye that fear the LORD, trust in the LORD: he [is] their help and

their shield.

PS-115:12 The LORD hath been mindful of us: he will bless [us]; he will bless

the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron.

PS-115:13 He will bless them that fear the LORD, [both] small and great.

PS-115:14 The LORD shall increase you more and more, you and your children.

PS-115:15 Ye [are] blessed of the LORD which made heaven and earth.

PS-115:16 The heaven, [even] the heavens, [are] the LORD's: but the earth hath

he given to the children of men.

PS-115:17 The dead praise not the LORD, neither any that go down into silence.

PS-115:18 But we will bless the LORD from this time forth and for evermore.

Praise the LORD.

PS-116:1 I love the LORD, because he hath heard my voice [and] my

supplications.

PS-116:2 Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon

[him] as long as I live.

PS-116:3 The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell gat hold

upon me: I found trouble and sorrow.

PS-116:4 Then called I upon the name of the LORD; O LORD, I beseech thee,

deliver my soul.

PS-116:5 Gracious [is] the LORD, and righteous; yea, our God [is] merciful.

PS-116:6 The LORD preserveth the simple: I was brought low, and he helped me.

PS-116:7 Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for the LORD hath dealt bountifully

with thee.

PS-116:8 For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears,

[and] my feet from falling.

PS-116:9 I will walk before the LORD in the land of the living.

PS-116:10 I believed, therefore have I spoken: I was greatly afflicted:

PS-116:11 I said in my haste, All men [are] liars.

PS-116:12 What shall I render unto the LORD [for] all his benefits toward me?

PS-116:13 I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the

LORD.

PS-116:14 I will pay my vows unto the LORD now in the presence of all his

people.

PS-116:15 Precious in the sight of the LORD [is] the death of his saints.

PS-116:16 O LORD, truly I [am] thy servant; I [am] thy servant, [and] the son

of thine handmaid: thou hast loosed my bonds.

PS-116:17 I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call

upon the name of the LORD.

PS-116:18 I will pay my vows unto the LORD now in the presence of all his

people,

PS-116:19 In the courts of the LORD's house, in the midst of thee, O

Jerusalem. Praise ye the LORD.

PS-117:1 O Praise the LORD, all ye nations: praise him, all ye people.

PS-117:2 For his merciful kindness is great toward us: and the truth of the

LORD [endureth] for ever. Praise ye the LORD.

PS-118:1 O give thanks unto the LORD; for [he is] good: because his mercy

[endureth] for ever.

PS-118:2 Let Israel now say, that his mercy [endureth] for ever.

PS-118:3 Let the house of Aaron now say, that his mercy [endureth] for ever.

PS-118:4 Let them now that fear the LORD say, that his mercy [endureth] for

ever.

PS-118:5 I called upon the LORD in distress: the LORD answered me, [and set

me] in a large place.

PS-118:6 The LORD [is] on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me?

PS-118:7 The LORD taketh my part with them that help me: therefore shall I see

[my desire] upon them that hate me.

PS-118:8 [It is] better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.

PS-118:9 [It is] better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in

princes.

PS-118:10 All nations compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD will I

destroy them.

PS-118:11 They compassed me about; yea, they compassed me about: but in the

name of the LORD I will destroy them.

PS-118:12 They compassed me about like bees; they are quenched as the fire of

thorns: for in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.

PS-118:13 Thou hast thrust sore at me that I might fall: but the LORD helped

me.

PS-118:14 The LORD [is] my strength and song, and is become my salvation.

PS-118:15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation [is] in the tabernacles of the

righteous: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.

PS-118:16 The right hand of the LORD is exalted: the right hand of the LORD

doeth valiantly.

PS-118:17 I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.

PS-118:18 The LORD hath chastened me sore: but he hath not given me over unto

death.

PS-118:19 Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will go into them, [and] I

will praise the LORD:

PS-118:20 This gate of the LORD, into which the righteous shall enter.

PS-118:21 I will praise thee: for thou hast heard me, and art become my

salvation.

PS-118:22 The stone [which] the builders refused is become the head [stone] of

the corner.

PS-118:23 This is the LORD'S doing; it [is] marvellous in our eyes.

PS-118:24 This [is] the day [which] the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be

glad in it.

PS-118:25 Save now, I beseech thee, O LORD: O LORD, I beseech thee, send now

prosperity.

PS-118:26 Blessed [be] he that cometh in the name of the LORD: we have blessed

you out of the house of the LORD.

PS-118:27 God [is] the LORD, which hath showed us light: bind the sacrifice

with cords, [even] unto the horns of the altar.

PS-118:28 Thou [art] my God, and I will praise thee: [thou art] my God, I will

exalt thee.

PS-118:29 O give thanks unto the LORD; for [he is] good: for his mercy

[endureth] for ever.

PS-119:1 ALEPH. Blessed [are] the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of

the LORD.

PS-119:2 Blessed [are] they that keep his testimonies, [and that] seek him

with the whole heart.

PS-119:3 They also do no iniquity: they walk in his ways.

PS-119:4 Thou hast commanded [us] to keep thy precepts diligently.

PS-119:5 O that my ways were directed to keep thy statutes!

PS-119:6 Then shall I not be ashamed, when I have respect unto all thy

commandments.

PS-119:7 I will praise thee with uprightness of heart, when I shall have

learned thy righteous judgments.

PS-119:8 I will keep thy statutes: O forsake me not utterly.

PS-119:9 BETH. Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed

[thereto] according to thy word.

PS-119:10 With my whole heart have I sought thee: O let me not wander from thy

commandments.

PS-119:11 Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against

thee.

PS-119:12 Blessed [art] thou, O LORD: teach me thy statutes.

PS-119:13 With my lips have I declared all the judgments of thy mouth.

PS-119:14 I have rejoiced in the way of thy testimonies, as [much as] in all

riches.

PS-119:15 I will meditate in thy precepts, and have respect unto thy ways.

PS-119:16 I will delight myself in thy statutes: I will not forget thy word.

PS-119:17 GIMEL. Deal bountifully with thy servant, [that] I may live, and

keep thy word.

PS-119:18 Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy

law.

PS-119:19 I [am] a stranger in the earth: hide not thy commandments from me.

PS-119:20 My soul breaketh for the longing [that it hath] unto thy judgments

at all times.

PS-119:21 Thou hast rebuked the proud [that are] cursed, which do err from thy

commandments.

PS-119:22 Remove from me reproach and contempt; for I have kept thy

testimonies.

PS-119:23 Princes also did sit [and] speak against me: [but] thy servant did

meditate in thy statutes.

PS-119:24 Thy testimonies also [are] my delight [and] my counsellors.

PS-119:25 DALETH. My soul cleaveth unto the dust: quicken thou me according to

thy word.

PS-119:26 I have declared my ways, and thou heardest me: teach me thy

statutes.

PS-119:27 Make me to understand the way of thy precepts: so shall I talk of

thy wondrous works.

PS-119:28 My soul melteth for heaviness: strengthen thou me according unto thy

word.

PS-119:29 Remove from me the way of lying: and grant me thy law graciously.

PS-119:30 I have chosen the way of truth: thy judgments have I laid [before

me].

PS-119:31 I have stuck unto thy testimonies: O LORD, put me not to shame.

PS-119:32 I will run the way of thy commandments, when thou shalt enlarge my

heart.

PS-119:33 HE. Teach me, O LORD, the way of thy statutes; and I shall keep it

[unto] the end.

PS-119:34 Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law; yea, I shall

observe it with [my] whole heart.

PS-119:35 Make me to go in the path of thy commandments; for therein do I

delight.

PS-119:36 Incline my heart unto thy testimonies, and not to covetousness.

PS-119:37 Turn away mine eyes from beholding vanity; [and] quicken thou me in

thy way.

PS-119:38 Stablish thy word unto thy servant, who [is devoted] to thy fear.

PS-119:39 Turn away my reproach which I fear: for thy judgments [are] good.

PS-119:40 Behold, I have longed after thy precepts: quicken me in thy

righteousness.

PS-119:41 VAU. Let thy mercies come also unto me, O LORD, [even] thy

salvation, according to thy word.

PS-119:42 So shall I have wherewith to answer him that reproacheth me: for I

trust in thy word.

PS-119:43 And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth; for I have

hoped in thy judgments.

PS-119:44 So shall I keep thy law continually for ever and ever.

PS-119:45 And I will walk at liberty: for I seek thy precepts.

PS-119:46 I will speak of thy testimonies also before kings, and will not be

ashamed.

PS-119:47 And I will delight myself in thy commandments, which I have loved.

PS-119:48 My hands also will I lift up unto thy commandments, which I have

loved; and I will meditate in thy statutes.

PS-119:49 ZAIN. Remember the word unto thy servant, upon which thou hast

caused me to hope.

PS-119:50 This [is] my comfort in my affliction: for thy word hath quickened

me.

PS-119:51 The proud have had me greatly in derision: [yet] have I not declined

from thy law.

PS-119:52 I remembered thy judgments of old, O LORD; and have comforted

myself.

PS-119:53 Horror hath taken hold upon me because of the wicked that forsake

thy law.

PS-119:54 Thy statutes have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimage.

PS-119:55 I have remembered thy name, O LORD, in the night, and have kept thy

law.

PS-119:56 This I had, because I kept thy precepts.

PS-119:57 CHETH. [Thou art] my portion, O LORD: I have said that I would keep

thy words.

PS-119:58 I entreated thy favour with [my] whole heart: be merciful unto me

according to thy word.

PS-119:59 I thought on my ways, and turned my feet unto thy testimonies.

PS-119:60 I made haste, and delayed not to keep thy commandments.

PS-119:61 The bands of the wicked have robbed me: [but] I have not forgotten

thy law.

PS-119:62 At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto thee because of thy

righteous judgments.

PS-119:63 I [am] a companion of all [them] that fear thee, and of them that

keep thy precepts.

PS-119:64 The earth, O LORD, is full of thy mercy: teach me thy statutes.

PS-119:65 TETH. Thou hast dealt well with thy servant, O LORD, according unto

thy word.

PS-119:66 Teach me good judgment and knowledge: for I have believed thy

commandments.

PS-119:67 Before I was afflicted I went astray: but now have I kept thy word.

PS-119:68 Thou [art] good, and doest good; teach me thy statutes.

PS-119:69 The proud have forged a lie against me: [but] I will keep thy

precepts with [my] whole heart.

PS-119:70 Their heart is as fat as grease; [but] I delight in thy law.

PS-119:71 [It is] good for me that I have been afflicted; that I might learn

thy statutes.

PS-119:72 The law of thy mouth [is] better unto me than thousands of gold and

silver.

PS-119:73 JOD. Thy hands have made me and fashioned me: give me understanding,

that I may learn thy commandments.

PS-119:74 They that fear thee will be glad when they see me; because I have

hoped in thy word.

PS-119:75 I know, O LORD, that thy judgments [are] right, and [that] thou in

faithfulness hast afflicted me.

PS-119:76 Let, I pray thee, thy merciful kindness be for my comfort, according

to thy word unto thy servant.

PS-119:77 Let thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may live: for thy law

[is] my delight.

PS-119:78 Let the proud be ashamed; for they dealt perversely with me without

a cause: [but] I will meditate in thy precepts.

PS-119:79 Let those that fear thee turn unto me, and those that have known thy

testimonies.

PS-119:80 Let my heart be sound in thy statutes; that I be not ashamed.

PS-119:81 CAPH. My soul fainteth for thy salvation: [but] I hope in thy word.

PS-119:82 Mine eyes fail for thy word, saying, When wilt thou comfort me?

PS-119:83 For I am become like a bottle in the smoke; [yet] do I not forget

thy statutes.

PS-119:84 How many [are] the days of thy servant? when wilt thou execute

judgment on them that persecute me?

PS-119:85 The proud have digged pits for me, which [are] not after thy law.

PS-119:86 All thy commandments [are] faithful: they persecute me wrongfully;

help thou me.

PS-119:87 They had almost consumed me upon earth; but I forsook not thy

precepts.

PS-119:88 Quicken me after thy lovingkindness; so shall I keep the testimony

of thy mouth.

PS-119:89 LAMED. For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.

PS-119:90 Thy faithfulness [is] unto all generations: thou hast established

the earth, and it abideth.

PS-119:91 They continue this day according to thine ordinances: for all [are]

thy servants.

PS-119:92 Unless thy law [had been] my delights, I should then have perished

in mine affliction.

PS-119:93 I will never forget thy precepts: for with them thou hast quickened

me.

PS-119:94 I [am] thine, save me; for I have sought thy precepts.

PS-119:95 The wicked have waited for me to destroy me: [but] I will consider

thy testimonies.

PS-119:96 I have seen an end of all perfection: [but] thy commandment [is]

exceeding broad.

PS-119:97 MEM. O how love I thy law! it [is] my meditation all the day.

PS-119:98 Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser than mine enemies:

for they [are] ever with me.

PS-119:99 I have more understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies

[are] my meditation.

PS-119:100 I understand more than the ancients, because I keep thy precepts.

PS-119:101 I have refrained my feet from every evil way, that I might keep thy

word.

PS-119:102 I have not departed from thy judgments: for thou hast taught me.

PS-119:103 How sweet are thy words unto my taste! [yea, sweeter] than honey to

my mouth!

PS-119:104 Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every

false way.

PS-119:105 NUN. Thy word [is] a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

PS-119:106 I have sworn, and I will perform [it], that I will keep thy

righteous judgments.

PS-119:107 I am afflicted very much: quicken me, O LORD, according unto thy

word.

PS-119:108 Accept, I beseech thee, the freewill offerings of my mouth, O LORD,

and teach me thy judgments.

PS-119:109 My soul [is] continually in my hand: yet do I not forget thy law.

PS-119:110 The wicked have laid a snare for me: yet I erred not from thy

precepts.

PS-119:111 Thy testimonies have I taken as an heritage for ever: for they

[are] the rejoicing of my heart.

PS-119:112 I have inclined mine heart to perform thy statutes alway, [even

unto] the end.

PS-119:113 SAMECH. I hate [vain] thoughts: but thy law do I love.

PS-119:114 Thou [art] my hiding place and my shield: I hope in thy word.

PS-119:115 Depart from me, ye evildoers: for I will keep the commandments of

my God.

PS-119:116 Uphold me according unto thy word, that I may live: and let me not

be ashamed of my hope.

PS-119:117 Hold thou me up, and I shall be safe: and I will have respect unto

thy statutes continually.

PS-119:118 Thou hast trodden down all them that err from thy statutes: for

their deceit [is] falsehood.

PS-119:119 Thou puttest away all the wicked of the earth [like] dross:

therefore I love thy testimonies.

PS-119:120 My flesh trembleth for fear of thee; and I am afraid of thy

judgments.

PS-119:121 AIN. I have done judgment and justice: leave me not to mine

oppressors.

PS-119:122 Be surety for thy servant for good: let not the proud oppress me.

PS-119:123 Mine eyes fail for thy salvation, and for the word of thy

righteousness.

PS-119:124 Deal with thy servant according unto thy mercy, and teach me thy

statutes.

PS-119:125 I [am] thy servant; give me understanding, that I may know thy

testimonies.

PS-119:126 [It is] time for [thee], LORD, to work: [for] they have made void

thy law.

PS-119:127 Therefore I love thy commandments above gold; yea, above fine gold.

PS-119:128 Therefore I esteem all [thy] precepts [concerning] all [things to

be] right; [and] I hate every false way.

PS-119:129 PE. Thy testimonies [are] wonderful: therefore doth my soul keep

them.

PS-119:130 The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding

unto the simple.

PS-119:131 I opened my mouth, and panted: for I longed for thy commandments.

PS-119:132 Look thou upon me, and be merciful unto me, as thou usest to do

unto those that love thy name.

PS-119:133 Order my steps in thy word: and let not any iniquity have dominion

over me.

PS-119:134 Deliver me from the oppression of man: so will I keep thy precepts.

PS-119:135 Make thy face to shine upon thy servant; and teach me thy statutes.

PS-119:136 Rivers of waters run down mine eyes, because they keep not thy law.

PS-119:137 TZADDI. Righteous [art] thou, O LORD, and upright [are] thy

judgments.

PS-119:138 Thy testimonies [that] thou hast commanded [are] righteous and very

faithful.

PS-119:139 My zeal hath consumed me, because mine enemies have forgotten thy

words.

PS-119:140 Thy word [is] very pure: therefore thy servant loveth it.

PS-119:141 I [am] small and despised: [yet] do not I forget thy precepts.

PS-119:142 Thy righteousness [is] an everlasting righteousness, and thy law

[is] the truth.

PS-119:143 Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me: [yet] thy commandments

[are] my delights.

PS-119:144 The righteousness of thy testimonies [is] everlasting: give me

understanding, and I shall live.

PS-119:145 KOPH. I cried with [my] whole heart; hear me, O LORD: I will keep

thy statutes.

PS-119:146 I cried unto thee; save me, and I shall keep thy testimonies.

PS-119:147 I prevented the dawning of the morning, and cried: I hoped in thy

word.

PS-119:148 Mine eyes prevent the [night] watches, that I might meditate in thy

word.

PS-119:149 Hear my voice according unto thy lovingkindness: O LORD, quicken me

according to thy judgment.

PS-119:150 They draw nigh that follow after mischief: they are far from thy

law.

PS-119:151 Thou [art] near, O LORD; and all thy commandments [are] truth.

PS-119:152 Concerning thy testimonies, I have known of old that thou hast

founded them for ever.

PS-119:153 RESH. Consider mine affliction, and deliver me: for I do not forget

thy law.

PS-119:154 Plead my cause, and deliver me: quicken me according to thy word.

PS-119:155 Salvation [is] far from the wicked: for they seek not thy statutes.

PS-119:156 Great [are] thy tender mercies, O LORD: quicken me according to thy

judgments.

PS-119:157 Many [are] my persecutors and mine enemies; [yet] do I not decline

from thy testimonies.

PS-119:158 I beheld the transgressors, and was grieved; because they kept not

thy word.

PS-119:159 Consider how I love thy precepts: quicken me, O LORD, according to

thy lovingkindness.

PS-119:160 Thy word [is] true [from] the beginning: and every one of thy

righteous judgments [endureth] for ever.

PS-119:161 SCHIN. Princes have persecuted me without a cause: but my heart

standeth in awe of thy word.

PS-119:162 I rejoice at thy word, as one that findeth great spoil.

PS-119:163 I hate and abhor lying: [but] thy law do I love.

PS-119:164 Seven times a day do I praise thee because of thy righteous

judgments.

PS-119:165 Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend

them.

PS-119:166 LORD, I have hoped for thy salvation, and done thy commandments.

PS-119:167 My soul hath kept thy testimonies; and I love them exceedingly.

PS-119:168 I have kept thy precepts and thy testimonies: for all my ways [are]

before thee.

PS-119:169 TAU. Let my cry come near before thee, O LORD: give me

understanding according to thy word.

PS-119:170 Let my supplication come before thee: deliver me according to thy

word.

PS-119:171 My lips shall utter praise, when thou hast taught me thy statutes.

PS-119:172 My tongue shall speak of thy word: for all thy commandments [are]

righteousness.

PS-119:173 Let thine hand help me; for I have chosen thy precepts.

PS-119:174 I have longed for thy salvation, O LORD; and thy law [is] my

delight.

PS-119:175 Let my soul live, and it shall praise thee; and let thy judgments

help me.

PS-119:176 I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek thy servant; for I do

not forget thy commandments.

PS-120:1 A Song of degrees. In my distress I cried unto the LORD, and he heard

me.

PS-120:2 Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips, [and] from a deceitful

tongue.

PS-120:3 What shall be given unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou

false tongue?

PS-120:4 Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.

PS-120:5 Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech, [that] I dwell in the tents of

Kedar!

PS-120:6 My soul hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace.

PS-120:7 I [am for] peace: but when I speak, they [are] for war.

PS-121:1 A Song of degrees. I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from

whence cometh my help.

PS-121:2 My help [cometh] from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.

PS-121:3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will

not slumber.

PS-121:4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.

PS-121:5 The LORD [is] thy keeper: the LORD [is] thy shade upon thy right

hand.

PS-121:6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.

PS-121:7 The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy

soul.

PS-121:8 The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this

time forth, and even for evermore.

PS-122:1 A Song of degrees of David. I was glad when they said unto me, Let us

go into the house of the LORD.

PS-122:2 Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.

PS-122:3 Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact together:

PS-122:4 Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, unto the testimony

of Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the LORD.

PS-122:5 For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of

David.

PS-122:6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.

PS-122:7 Peace be within thy walls, [and] prosperity within thy palaces.

PS-122:8 For my brethren and companions' sakes, I will now say, Peace [be]

within thee.

PS-122:9 Because of the house of the LORD our God I will seek thy good.

PS-123:1 A Song of degrees. Unto thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that

dwellest in the heavens.

PS-123:2 Behold, as the eyes of servants [look] unto the hand of their

masters, [and] as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; so our

eyes [wait] upon the LORD our God, until that he have mercy upon us.

PS-123:3 Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us: for we are

exceedingly filled with contempt.

PS-123:4 Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at

ease, [and] with the contempt of the proud.

PS-124:1 A Song of degrees of David. If [it had not been] the LORD who was on

our side, now may Israel say;

PS-124:2 If [it had not been] the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up

against us:

PS-124:3 Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled

against us:

PS-124:4 Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our

soul:

PS-124:5 Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.

PS-124:6 Blessed [be] the LORD, who hath not given us [as] a prey to their

teeth.

PS-124:7 Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the

snare is broken, and we are escaped.

PS-124:8 Our help [is] in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.

PS-125:1 A Song of degrees. They that trust in the LORD [shall be] as mount

Zion, [which] cannot be removed, [but] abideth for ever.

PS-125:2 As the mountains [are] round about Jerusalem, so the LORD [is] round

about his people from henceforth even for ever.

PS-125:3 For the rod of the wicked shall not rest upon the lot of the

righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands unto iniquity.

PS-125:4 Do good, O LORD, unto [those that be] good, and [to them that are]

upright in their hearts.

PS-125:5 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.

PS-126:1 A Song of degrees. When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion,

we were like them that dream.

PS-126:2 Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing:

then said they among the heathen, The LORD hath done great things for them.

PS-126:3 The LORD hath done great things for us; [whereof] we are glad.

PS-126:4 Turn again our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the south.

PS-126:5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

PS-126:6 He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall

doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves [with him].

PS-127:1 A Song of degrees for Solomon. Except the LORD build the house, they

labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman

waketh [but] in vain.

PS-127:2 [It is] vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the

bread of sorrows: [for] so he giveth his beloved sleep.

PS-127:3 Lo, children [are] an heritage of the LORD: [and] the fruit of the

womb [is his] reward.

PS-127:4 As arrows [are] in the hand of a mighty man; so [are] children of the

youth.

PS-127:5 Happy [is] the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not

be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.

PS-128:1 A Song of degrees. Blessed [is] every one that feareth the LORD; that

walketh in his ways.

PS-128:2 For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy [shalt] thou

[be], and [it shall be] well with thee.

PS-128:3 Thy wife [shall be] as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house:

thy children like olive plants round about thy table.

PS-128:4 Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the LORD.

PS-128:5 The LORD shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of

Jerusalem all the days of thy life.

PS-128:6 Yea, thou shalt see thy children's children, [and] peace upon Israel.

PS-129:1 A Song of degrees. Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth,

may Israel now say:

PS-129:2 Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth: yet they have not

prevailed against me.

PS-129:3 The plowers plowed upon my back: they made long their furrows.

PS-129:4 The LORD [is] righteous: he hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked.

PS-129:5 Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion.

PS-129:6 Let them be as the grass [upon] the housetops, which withereth afore

it groweth up:

PS-129:7 Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand; nor he that bindeth sheaves

his bosom.

PS-129:8 Neither do they which go by say, The blessing of the LORD [be] upon

you: we bless you in the name of the LORD.

PS-130:1 A Song of degrees. Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O LORD.

PS-130:2 Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my

supplications.

PS-130:3 If thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?

PS-130:4 But [there is] forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.

PS-130:5 I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.

PS-130:6 My soul [waiteth] for the Lord more than they that watch for the

morning: [I say, more than] they that watch for the morning.

PS-130:7 Let Israel hope in the LORD: for with the LORD [there is] mercy, and

with him [is] plenteous redemption.

PS-130:8 And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.

PS-131:1 A Song of degrees of David. LORD, my heart is not haughty, nor mine

eyes lofty: neither do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too

high for me.

PS-131:2 Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned

of his mother: my soul [is] even as a weaned child.

PS-131:3 Let Israel hope in the LORD from henceforth and for ever.

PS-132:1 A Song of degrees. LORD, remember David, [and] all his afflictions:

PS-132:2 How he sware unto the LORD, [and] vowed unto the mighty [God] of

Jacob;

PS-132:3 Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house, nor go up

into my bed;

PS-132:4 I will not give sleep to mine eyes, [or] slumber to mine eyelids,

PS-132:5 Until I find out a place for the LORD, an habitation for the mighty

[God] of Jacob.

PS-132:6 Lo, we heard of it at Ephratah: we found it in the fields of the

wood.

PS-132:7 We will go into his tabernacles: we will worship at his footstool.

PS-132:8 Arise, O LORD, into thy rest; thou, and the ark of thy strength.

PS-132:9 Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness; and let thy saints

shout for joy.

PS-132:10 For thy servant David's sake turn not away the face of thine

anointed.

PS-132:11 The LORD hath sworn [in] truth unto David; he will not turn from it;

Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne.

PS-132:12 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.

PS-132:13 For the LORD hath chosen Zion; he hath desired [it] for his

habitation.

PS-132:14 This [is] my rest for ever: here will I dwell; for I have desired

it.

PS-132:15 I will abundantly bless her provision: I will satisfy her poor with

bread.

PS-132:16 I will also clothe her priests with salvation: and her saints shall

shout aloud for joy.

PS-132:17 There will I make the horn of David to bud: I have ordained a lamp

for mine anointed.

PS-132:18 His enemies will I clothe with shame: but upon himself shall his

crown flourish.

PS-133:1 A Song of degrees of David. Behold, how good and how pleasant [it is]

for brethren to dwell together in unity!

PS-133:2 [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;

PS-133:3 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.

PS-134:1 A Song of degrees. Behold, bless ye the LORD, all [ye] servants of

the LORD, which by night stand in the house of the LORD.

PS-134:2 Lift up your hands [in] the sanctuary, and bless the LORD.

PS-134:3 The LORD that made heaven and earth bless thee out of Zion.

PS-135:1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the name of the LORD; praise [him], O

ye servants of the LORD.

PS-135:2 Ye that stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of

our God,

PS-135:3 Praise the LORD; for the LORD [is] good: sing praises unto his name;

for [it is] pleasant.

PS-135:4 For the LORD hath chosen Jacob unto himself, [and] Israel for his

peculiar treasure.

PS-135:5 For I know that the LORD [is] great, and [that] our Lord [is] above

all gods.

PS-135:6 Whatsoever the LORD pleased, [that] did he in heaven, and in earth,

in the seas, and all deep places.

PS-135:7 He causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; he

maketh lightnings for the rain; he bringeth the wind out of his treasuries.

PS-135:8 Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast.

PS-135:9 [Who] sent tokens and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, upon

Pharaoh, and upon all his servants.

PS-135:10 Who smote great nations, and slew mighty kings;

PS-135:11 Sihon king of the Amorites, and Og king of Bashan, and all the

kingdoms of Canaan:

PS-135:12 And gave their land [for] an heritage, an heritage unto Israel his

people.

PS-135:13 Thy name, O LORD, [endureth] for ever; [and] thy memorial, O LORD,

throughout all generations.

PS-135:14 For the LORD will judge his people, and he will repent himself

concerning his servants.

PS-135:15 The idols of the heathen [are] silver and gold, the work of men's

hands.

PS-135:16 They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see

not;

PS-135:17 They have ears, but they hear not; neither is there [any] breath in

their mouths.

PS-135:18 They that make them are like unto them: [so is] every one that

trusteth in them.

PS-135:19 Bless the LORD, O house of Israel: bless the LORD, O house of Aaron:

PS-135:20 Bless the LORD, O house of Levi: ye that fear the LORD, bless the

LORD.

PS-135:21 Blessed be the LORD out of Zion, which dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise

ye the LORD.

PS-136:1 O give thanks unto the LORD; for [he is] good: for his mercy

[endureth] for ever.

PS-136:2 O give thanks unto the God of gods: for his mercy [endureth] for

ever.

PS-136:3 O give thanks to the Lord of lords: for his mercy [endureth] for

ever.

PS-136:4 To him who alone doeth great wonders: for his mercy [endureth] for

ever.

PS-136:5 To him that by wisdom made the heavens: for his mercy [endureth] for

ever.

PS-136:6 To him that stretched out the earth above the waters: for his mercy

[endureth] for ever.

PS-136:7 To him that made great lights: for his mercy [endureth] for ever:

PS-136:8 The sun to rule by day: for his mercy [endureth] for ever:

PS-136:9 The moon and stars to rule by night: for his mercy [endureth] for

ever.

PS-136:10 To him that smote Egypt in their firstborn: for his mercy [endureth]

for ever:

PS-136:11 And brought out Israel from among them: for his mercy [endureth] for

ever:

PS-136:12 With a strong hand, and with a stretched out arm: for his mercy

[endureth] for ever.

PS-136:13 To him which divided the Red sea into parts: for his mercy

[endureth] for ever:

PS-136:14 And made Israel to pass through the midst of it: for his mercy

[endureth] for ever:

PS-136:15 But overthrew Pharaoh and his host in the Red sea: for his mercy

[endureth] for ever.

PS-136:16 To him which led his people through the wilderness: for his mercy

[endureth] for ever.

PS-136:17 To him which smote great kings: for his mercy [endureth] for ever:

PS-136:18 And slew famous kings: for his mercy [endureth] for ever:

PS-136:19 Sihon king of the Amorites: for his mercy [endureth] for ever:

PS-136:20 And Og the king of Bashan: for his mercy [endureth] for ever:

PS-136:21 And gave their land for an heritage: for his mercy [endureth] for

ever:

PS-136:22 [Even] an heritage unto Israel his servant: for his mercy [endureth]

for ever.

PS-136:23 Who remembered us in our low estate: for his mercy [endureth] for

ever:

PS-136:24 And hath redeemed us from our enemies: for his mercy [endureth] for

ever.

PS-136:25 Who giveth food to all flesh: for his mercy [endureth] for ever.

PS-136:26 O give thanks unto the God of heaven: for his mercy [endureth] for

ever.

PS-137:1 By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we

remembered Zion.

PS-137:2 We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof.

PS-137:3 For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song;

and they that wasted us [required of us] mirth, [saying], Sing us [one] of the

songs of Zion.

PS-137:4 How shall we sing the LORD's song in a strange land?

PS-137:5 If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget [her

cunning].

PS-137:6 If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my

mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.

PS-137:7 Remember, O LORD, the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem; who

said, Raze [it], raze [it, even] to the foundation thereof.

PS-137:8 O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy [shall he be],

that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us.

PS-137:9 Happy [shall he be], that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against

the stones.

PS-138:1 [A Psalm] of David. I will praise thee with my whole heart: before

the gods will I sing praise unto thee.

PS-138:2 I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy

lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all

thy name.

PS-138:3 In the day when I cried thou answeredst me, [and] strengthenedst me

[with] strength in my soul.

PS-138:4 All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O LORD, when they hear

the words of thy mouth.

PS-138:5 Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the LORD: for great [is] the

glory of the LORD.

PS-138:6 Though the LORD [be] high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but

the proud he knoweth afar off.

PS-138:7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou

shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy

right hand shall save me.

PS-138:8 The LORD will perfect [that which] concerneth me: thy mercy, O LORD,

[endureth] for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands.

PS-139:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. O LORD, thou hast searched

me, and known [me].

PS-139:2 Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my

thought afar off.

PS-139:3 Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted [with]

all my ways.

PS-139:4 For [there is] not a word in my tongue, [but], lo, O LORD, thou

knowest it altogether.

PS-139:5 Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.

PS-139:6 [Such] knowledge [is] too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot

[attain] unto it.

PS-139:7 Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy

presence?

PS-139:8 If I ascend up into heaven, thou [art] there: if I make my bed in

hell, behold, thou [art there].

PS-139:9 [If] I take the wings of the morning, [and] dwell in the uttermost

parts of the sea;

PS-139:10 Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.

PS-139:11 If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall

be light about me.

PS-139:12 Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the

day: the darkness and the light [are] both alike [to thee].

PS-139:13 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my

mother's womb.

PS-139:14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully [and] wonderfully made:

marvellous [are] thy works; and [that] my soul knoweth right well.

PS-139:15 My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, [and]

curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.

PS-139:16 Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy

book all [my members] were written, [which] in continuance were fashioned,

when [as yet there was] none of them.

PS-139:17 How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the

sum of them!

PS-139:18 [If] I should count them, they are more in number than the sand:

when I awake, I am still with thee.

PS-139:19 Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore,

ye bloody men.

PS-139:20 For they speak against thee wickedly, [and] thine enemies take [thy

name] in vain.

PS-139:21 Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved

with those that rise up against thee?

PS-139:22 I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.

PS-139:23 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:

PS-139:24 And see if [there be any] wicked way in me, and lead me in the way

everlasting.

PS-140:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. Deliver me, O LORD, from the

evil man: preserve me from the violent man;

PS-140:2 Which imagine mischiefs in [their] heart; continually are they

gathered together [for] war.

PS-140:3 They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent; adders' poison [is]

under their lips. Selah.

PS-140:4 Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked; preserve me from the

violent man; who have purposed to overthrow my goings.

PS-140:5 The proud have hid a snare for me, and cords; they have spread a net

by the wayside; they have set gins for me. Selah.

PS-140:6 I said unto the LORD, Thou [art] my God: hear the voice of my

supplications, O LORD.

PS-140:7 O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation, thou hast covered my

head in the day of battle.

PS-140:8 Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked: further not his wicked

device; [lest] they exalt themselves. Selah.

PS-140:9 [As for] the head of those that compass me about, let the mischief of

their own lips cover them.

PS-140:10 Let burning coals fall upon them: let them be cast into the fire;

into deep pits, that they rise not up again.

PS-140:11 Let not an evil speaker be established in the earth: evil shall hunt

the violent man to overthrow [him].

PS-140:12 I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted, [and]

the right of the poor.

PS-140:13 Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto thy name: the upright

shall dwell in thy presence.

PS-141:1 A Psalm of David. LORD, I cry unto thee: make haste unto me; give ear

unto my voice, when I cry unto thee.

PS-141:2 Let my prayer be set forth before thee [as] incense; [and] the

lifting up of my hands [as] the evening sacrifice.

PS-141:3 Set a watch, O LORD, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.

PS-141:4 Incline not my heart to [any] evil thing, to practice wicked works

with men that work iniquity: and let me not eat of their dainties.

PS-141:5 Let the righteous smite me; [it shall be] a kindness: and let him

reprove me; [it shall be] an excellent oil, [which] shall not break my head:

for yet my prayer also [shall be] in their calamities.

PS-141:6 When their judges are overthrown in stony places, they shall hear my

words; for they are sweet.

PS-141:7 Our bones are scattered at the grave's mouth, as when one cutteth and

cleaveth [wood] upon the earth.

PS-141:8 But mine eyes [are] unto thee, O GOD the Lord: in thee is my trust;

leave not my soul destitute.

PS-141:9 Keep me from the snares [which] they have laid for me, and the gins

of the workers of iniquity.

PS-141:10 Let the wicked fall into their own nets, whilst that I withal

escape.

PS-142:1 Maschil of David; A Prayer when he was in the cave. I cried unto the

LORD with my voice; with my voice unto the LORD did I make my supplication.

PS-142:2 I poured out my complaint before him; I showed before him my trouble.

PS-142:3 When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, then thou knewest my path.

In the way wherein I walked have they privily laid a snare for me.

PS-142:4 I looked on [my] right hand, and beheld, but [there was] no man that

would know me: refuge failed me; no man cared for my soul.

PS-142:5 I cried unto thee, O LORD: I said, Thou [art] my refuge [and] my

portion in the land of the living.

PS-142:6 Attend unto my cry; for I am brought very low: deliver me from my

persecutors; for they are stronger than I.

PS-142:7 Bring my soul out of prison, that I may praise thy name: the

righteous shall compass me about; for thou shalt deal bountifully with me.

PS-143:1 A Psalm of David. Hear my prayer, O LORD, give ear to my

supplications: in thy faithfulness answer me, [and] in thy righteousness.

PS-143:2 And enter not into judgment with thy servant: for in thy sight shall

no man living be justified.

PS-143:3 For the enemy hath persecuted my soul; he hath smitten my life down

to the ground; he hath made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have been

long dead.

PS-143:4 Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me; my heart within me is

desolate.

PS-143:5 I remember the days of old; I meditate on all thy works; I muse on

the work of thy hands.

PS-143:6 I stretch forth my hands unto thee: my soul [thirsteth] after thee,

as a thirsty land. Selah.

PS-143:7 Hear me speedily, O LORD: my spirit faileth: hide not thy face from

me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.

PS-143:8 Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning; for in thee do I

trust: cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul

unto thee.

PS-143:9 Deliver me, O LORD, from mine enemies: I flee unto thee to hide me.

PS-143:10 Teach me to do thy will; for thou [art] my God: thy spirit [is]

good; lead me into the land of uprightness.

PS-143:11 Quicken me, O LORD, for thy name's sake: for thy righteousness' sake

bring my soul out of trouble.

PS-143:12 And of thy mercy cut off mine enemies, and destroy all them that

afflict my soul: for I [am] thy servant.

PS-144:1 [A Psalm] of David. Blessed [be] the LORD my strength, which teacheth

my hands to war, [and] my fingers to fight:

PS-144:2 My goodness, and my fortress; my high tower, and my deliverer; my

shield, and [he] in whom I trust; who subdueth my people under me.

PS-144:3 LORD, what [is] man, that thou takest knowledge of him! [or] the son

of man, that thou makest account of him!

PS-144:4 Man is like to vanity: his days [are] as a shadow that passeth away.

PS-144:5 Bow thy heavens, O LORD, and come down: touch the mountains, and they

shall smoke.

PS-144:6 Cast forth lightning, and scatter them: shoot out thine arrows, and

destroy them.

PS-144:7 Send thine hand from above; rid me, and deliver me out of great

waters, from the hand of strange children;

PS-144:8 Whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand [is] a right hand

of falsehood.

PS-144:9 I will sing a new song unto thee, O God: upon a psaltery [and] an

instrument of ten strings will I sing praises unto thee.

PS-144:10 [It is he] that giveth salvation unto kings: who delivereth David

his servant from the hurtful sword.

PS-144:11 Rid me, and deliver me from the hand of strange children, whose

mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand [is] a right hand of falsehood:

PS-144:12 That our sons [may be] as plants grown up in their youth; [that] our

daughters [may be] as corner stones, polished [after] the similitude of a

palace:

PS-144:13 [That] our garners [may be] full, affording all manner of store:

[that] our sheep may bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our streets:

PS-144:14 [That] our oxen [may be] strong to labour; [that there be] no

breaking in, nor going out; that [there be] no complaining in our streets.

PS-144:15 Happy [is that] people, that is in such a case: [yea], happy [is

that] people, whose God [is] the LORD.

PS-145:1 David's [Psalm] of praise. I will extol thee, my God, O king; and I

will bless thy name for ever and ever.

PS-145:2 Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and

ever.

PS-145:3 Great [is] the LORD, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness

[is] unsearchable.

PS-145:4 One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare

thy mighty acts.

PS-145:5 I will speak of the glorious honour of thy majesty, and of thy

wondrous works.

PS-145:6 And [men] shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and I will

declare thy greatness.

PS-145:7 They shall abundantly utter the memory of thy great goodness, and

shall sing of thy righteousness.

PS-145:8 The LORD [is] gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of

great mercy.

PS-145:9 The LORD [is] good to all: and his tender mercies [are] over all his

works.

PS-145:10 All thy works shall praise thee, O LORD; and thy saints shall bless

thee.

PS-145:11 They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom, and talk of thy power;

PS-145:12 To make known to the sons of men his mighty acts, and the glorious

majesty of his kingdom.

PS-145:13 Thy kingdom [is] an everlasting kingdom, and thy dominion [endureth]

throughout all generations.

PS-145:14 The LORD upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all [those that be]

bowed down.

PS-145:15 The eyes of all wait upon thee; and thou givest them their meat in

due season.

PS-145:16 Thou openest thine hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living

thing.

PS-145:17 The LORD [is] righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works.

PS-145:18 The LORD [is] nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that

call upon him in truth.

PS-145:19 He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear

their cry, and will save them.

PS-145:20 The LORD preserveth all them that love him: but all the wicked will

he destroy.

PS-145:21 My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD: and let all flesh bless

his holy name for ever and ever.

PS-146:1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise the LORD, O my soul.

PS-146:2 While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises unto my God

while I have any being.

PS-146:3 Put not your trust in princes, [nor] in the son of man, in whom

[there is] no help.

PS-146:4 His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day

his thoughts perish.

PS-146:5 Happy [is he] that [hath] the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope

[is] in the LORD his God:

PS-146:6 Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein [is]:

which keepeth truth for ever:

PS-146:7 Which executeth judgment for the oppressed: which giveth food to the

hungry. The LORD looseth the prisoners:

PS-146:8 The LORD openeth [the eyes of] the blind: the LORD raiseth them that

are bowed down: the LORD loveth the righteous:

PS-146:9 The LORD preserveth the strangers; he relieveth the fatherless and

widow: but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down.

PS-146:10 The LORD shall reign for ever, [even] thy God, O Zion, unto all

generations. Praise ye the LORD.

PS-147:1 Praise ye the LORD: for [it is] good to sing praises unto our God;

for [it is] pleasant; [and] praise is comely.

PS-147:2 The LORD doth build up Jerusalem: he gathereth together the outcasts

of Israel.

PS-147:3 He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.

PS-147:4 He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by [their]

names.

PS-147:5 Great [is] our Lord, and of great power: his understanding [is]

infinite.

ground.

PS-147:7 Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto

our God:

PS-147:8 Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the

earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.

PS-147:9 He giveth to the beast his food, [and] to the young ravens which cry.

PS-147:10 He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: he taketh not

pleasure in the legs of a man.

PS-147:11 The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope

in his mercy.

PS-147:12 Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Zion.

PS-147:13 For he hath strengthened the bars of thy gates; he hath blessed thy

children within thee.

PS-147:14 He maketh peace [in] thy borders, [and] filleth thee with the finest

of the wheat.

PS-147:15 He sendeth forth his commandment [upon] earth: his word runneth very

swiftly.

PS-147:16 He giveth snow like wool: he scattereth the hoarfrost like ashes.

PS-147:17 He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who can stand before his

cold?

PS-147:18 He sendeth out his word, and melteth them: he causeth his wind to

blow, [and] the waters flow.

PS-147:19 He showeth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto

Israel.

PS-147:20 He hath not dealt so with any nation: and [as for his] judgments,

they have not known them. Praise ye the LORD.

PS-148:1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him

PS-148:4 Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that [be] above the

heavens.

PS-148:5 Let them praise the name of the LORD: for he commanded, and they were

created.

which shall not pass.

PS-148:7 Praise the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:

PS-148:8 Fire, and hail; snow, and vapours; stormy wind fulfilling his word:

PS-148:9 Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:

PS-148:10 Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl:

PS-148:11 Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the

earth:

PS-148:12 Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:

PS-148:13 Let them praise the name of the LORD: for his name alone is

excellent; his glory [is] above the earth and heaven.

PS-148:14 He also exalteth the horn of his people, the praise of all his

saints; [even] of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Praise ye

the LORD.

PS-149:1 Praise ye the LORD. Sing unto the LORD a new song, [and] his praise

in the congregation of saints.

PS-149:2 Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the children of Zion be

joyful in their King.

PS-149:3 Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises unto him

with the timbrel and harp.

PS-149:4 For the LORD taketh pleasure in his people: he will beautify the meek

with salvation.

PS-149:5 Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their

beds.

PS-149:6 [Let] the high [praises] of God [be] in their mouth, and a twoedged

sword in their hand;

PS-149:7 To execute vengeance upon the heathen, [and] punishments upon the

people;

PS-149:8 To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of

iron;

PS-149:9 To execute upon them the judgment written: this honour have all his

saints. Praise ye the LORD.

greatness.

psaltery and harp.

instruments and organs.

cymbals.
