1 [A Psalm] of David.
Judge me, O Jehovah, for I have walked in mine integrity:
I have trusted also in Jehovah without wavering. 2 Examine me, O Jehovah, and prove me;
Try my heart and my mind. 3 For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes;
And I have walked in thy truth. 4 I have not sat with men of falsehood;
Neither will I go in with dissemblers. 5 I hate the assembly of evil-doers,
And will not sit with the wicked. 6 I will wash my hands in innocency:
So will I compass thine altar, O Jehovah; 7 That I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard,
And tell of all thy wondrous works. 8 Jehovah, I love the habitation of thy house,
And the place where thy glory dwelleth. 9 Gather not my soul with sinners,
Nor my life with men of blood; 10 In whose hands is wickedness,
And their right hand is full of bribes. 11 But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity:
Redeem me, and be merciful unto me. 12 My foot standeth in an even place:
In the congregations will I bless Jehovah.
27 1 [A Psalm] of David.
Jehovah is my light and my salvation;
Whom shall I fear?
Jehovah is the strength of my life;
Of whom shall I be afraid? 2 When evil-doers came upon me to eat up my flesh,
[Even] mine adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell. 3 Though a host should encamp against me,
My heart shall not fear:
Though war should rise against me,
Even then will I be confident. 4 One thing have I asked of Jehovah, that will I seek after:
That I may dwell in the house of Jehovah all the days of my life,
To behold the beauty of Jehovah,
And to inquire in his temple. 5 For in the day of trouble he will keep me secretly in his pavilion:
In the covert of his tabernacle will he hide me;
He will lift me up upon a rock. 6 And now shall my head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me;
And I will offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy;
I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto Jehovah.
7 Hear, O Jehovah, when I cry with my voice:
Have mercy also upon me, and answer me. 8 [When thou saidst], Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee,
Thy face, Jehovah, will I seek. 9 Hide not thy face from me;
Put not thy servant away in anger:
Thou hast been my help;
Cast me not off, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation. 10 When my father and my mother forsake me,
Then Jehovah will take me up. 11 Teach me thy way, O Jehovah;
And lead me in a plain path,
Because of mine enemies. 12 Deliver me not over unto the will of mine adversaries:
For false witnesses are risen up against me,
And such as breathe out cruelty. 13 [I had fainted], unless I had believed to see the goodness of Jehovah
In the land of the living. 14 Wait for Jehovah:
Be strong, and let thy heart take courage;
Yea, wait thou for Jehovah.
28 1 [A Psalm] of David.
Unto thee, O Jehovah, will I call:
My rock, be not thou deaf unto me;
Lest, if thou be silent unto me,
I become like them that go down into the pit. 2 Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee,
When I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle. 3 Draw me not away with the wicked,
And with the workers of iniquity;
That speak peace with their neighbors,
But mischief is in their hearts. 4 Give them according to their work, and according to the wickedness of their doings:
Give them after the operation of their hands;
Render to them their desert. 5 Because they regard not the works of Jehovah,
Nor the operation of his hands,
He will break them down and not build them up.
6 Blessed be Jehovah,
Because he hath heard the voice of my supplications. 7 Jehovah is my strength and my shield;
My heart hath trusted in him, and I am helped:
Therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth;
And with my song will I praise him. 8 Jehovah is their strength,
And he is a stronghold of salvation to his anointed. 9 Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance:
Be their shepherd also, and bear them up for ever.
29 1 A Psalm of David.
Ascribe unto Jehovah, O ye sons of the mighty,
Ascribe unto Jehovah glory and strength. 2 Ascribe unto Jehovah the glory due unto his name;
Worship Jehovah in holy array.
3 The voice of Jehovah is upon the waters:
The God of glory thundereth,
Even Jehovah upon many waters. 4 The voice of Jehovah is powerful;
The voice of Jehovah is full of majesty. 5 The voice of Jehovah breaketh the cedars;
Yea, Jehovah breaketh in pieces the cedars of Lebanon. 6 He maketh them also to skip like a calf;
Lebanon and Sirion like a young wild-ox. 7 The voice of Jehovah cleaveth the flames of fire. 8 The voice of Jehovah shaketh the wilderness;
Jehovah shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.
9 The voice of Jehovah maketh the hinds to calve,
And strippeth the forests bare:
And in his temple everything saith, Glory. 10 Jehovah sat [as King] at the Flood;
Yea, Jehovah sitteth as King for ever. 11 Jehovah will give strength unto his people;
Jehovah will bless his people with peace.
30 1 A Psalm; a Song at the Dedication of the House. [A Psalm] of David.
I will extol thee, O Jehovah; for thou hast raised me up,
And hast not made my foes to rejoice over me. 2 O Jehovah my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me. 3 O Jehovah, thou hast brought up my soul from Sheol;
Thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit. 4 Sing praise unto Jehovah, O ye saints of his,
And give thanks to his holy memorial [name]. 5 For his anger is but for a moment;
His favor is for a life-time:
Weeping may tarry for the night,
But joy [cometh] in the morning. 6 As for me, I said in my prosperity, I shall never be moved. 7 Thou, Jehovah, of thy favor hadst made my mountain to stand strong:
Thou didst hide thy face; I was troubled. 8 I cried to thee, O Jehovah;
And unto Jehovah I made supplication: 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? 10 Hear, O Jehovah, and have mercy upon me:
Jehovah, be thou my helper. 11 Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing;
Thou hast loosed my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness; 12 To the end that [my] glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent.
O Jehovah my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.
Judge me, O Jehovah, for I have walked in mine integrity:
