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.
PS-147:6 The LORD lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the
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.
