JuliaSmith⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Happy the man who went not in the counsel of the unjust, and he stood not in the way of the sinful, and sat not in the seat of those scoffing. ² But his delight is in the law of Jehovah, and in his law he will meditate day and night ³ And he was as a tree planted by the streams of water which will give its fruit in its time; his leaf shall not fall away, and all which he shall do shall be prospered. ⁴ Not so the unjust: but as the chaff which the wind shall drive away. ⁵ For this, the unjust shall not rise up in judgment, and the sinful in the assembly of the just ⁶ For Jehovah shall know the way of the just: but the way of the unjust shall perish. ² ¹ Wherefore did the nations rage, and the peoples will meditate emptiness? ² The kings of the earth will place themselves, and the princes sat down together against Jehovah and against his Messiah. ³ We will tear away his bands, and we will cast away his cords from us. ⁴ He dwelling in the heavens shall laugh: Jehovah shall deride to them. ⁵ Then shall he speak to them in his anger, and in his burning shall he tery them. ⁶ And I anointed my king over Zion my holy mountain. ⁷ I will recount for a law of Jehovah: He said to me, Thou my son; this day I begat thee. ⁸ Ask of me and I will give the nations thine inheritance, and thy possession the extremities of the earth. ⁹ Thou shalt rule them with a rod of iron; as a potter's vessel shalt thou break them in pieces. kings, and be instructed, ye judging the land. ¹⁰ And now be circumspect, ye and be silent Silence. ¹¹ Serve Jehovah with fear, and rejoice with trembling. ¹² Kiss the chosen lest he shall be angry, and ye perish in the way when his anger shall kindle as a little. Happy all they putting their trust in him. ³ ¹ Chanting of David in his fleeing from the face of Absalom his son. Jehovah, how they pressing upon me were multiplied! many rising up against me. ² Many saying to my soul, No salvation to him in God. Silence. ³ And thou, Jehovah, a shield about me: my glory, and lifting up my head. ⁴ With my voice will I call to Jehovah, and he will answer me from his holy mountain. Silence. ⁵ I lay down and I, shall sleep; I awaked: for Jehovah will uphold me. ⁶ I shall not be afraid of ten thousand of people who sit round about upon me. ⁷ Arise, O Jehovah; save me, my God, for thou didst strike all mine enemies upon the cheek; thou didst break the teeth of the unjust. ⁸ To Jehovah salvation: upon thy people thy blessing. Silence. ⁴ ¹ To the overseer upon the stringed instruments; chanting of David. In my calling, answer me, O God of my justice: in straits thou didst enlarge me; compassionate me and hear my prayer. ² Sons of man, how long mine honor for shame? Ye will love emptiness, ye. will seek falsehood. Silence. ³ And know ye that Jehovah separated the kind one to himself: Jehovah will hear in my calling to him. ⁴ Be ye disturbed, and ye shall not sin: say in your heart upon your bed, ⁵ Sacrifice ye the sacrifices of justice, and trust to Jehovah. ⁶ Many saying, Who will cause us to see good? Lift up upon us the light of thy face, O Jehovah. ⁷ Thou gavest gladness in my heart, from the time their grain and their new wine increased. ⁸ In peace together shall I lie down, and I shall sleep: for thou Jehovah alone wilt cause me to dwell confidently. ⁵ ¹ To the overseer of the pipes; chanting of David. Give ear to my sayings, O Jehovah; attend to my cry. ² Attend to the voice of my supplication, my King and my God: for to thee will I pray. ³ O Jehovah, the morning thou wilt hear my voice; the morning I will set in order to thee, and I will look about. ⁴ For thou not a God delighting in injustice: and evil shall not dwell with thee. ⁵ The foolish shall not stand before thine eyes: thou hatedst all working vanity. ⁶ Thou shalt destroy those speaking falsehood: a man of bloods and deceit Jehovah will abhor. ⁷ And I in the multitude of thy mercy will come into thy house; I will worship to thy holy temple in thy fear. ⁸ O Jehovah, guide me into thy justice, for sake of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face. ⁹ Not steadfast in his mouth; the midst of them mischiefs; their throat a grave opened; they will be smooth with their tongue, ¹⁰ Punish them, O God: they shall fall by their counsels; in the multitude of their transgressions thrust them down, for they rebelled against thee. ¹¹ And all they putting trust in thee shall rejoice forever: they shall shout for joy, and thou wilt cover over them: and they loving thy name shall exult in thee. ¹² For thou wilt bless the just, O Jehovah: thou wilt surround him with favor as a shield ⁶ ¹ To the overseer upon the stringed instruments upon the octave, chanting of David. O Jehovah, not in thine anger wilt thou correct me, and not in thy wrath wilt thou chastise me. ² Compassionate me, O Jehovah, for I languish: heal me, O Jehovah, for my bones trembled. ³ My soul trembled exceedingly: and thou, O Jehovah, how long? ⁴ Turn back, O Jehovah, deliver my soul: save me for sake of thy mercy. ⁵ For in death none remembering thee: in hades who shall give thanks to thee? ⁶ I was wearied with my sighing all the night I shall make my bed to swim with my tears; I shall make my couch to flow. ⁷ Mine eye fell away from grief; it grew old among all mine enemies. ⁸ Depart from me, all ye doing vanity, for Jehovah heard the voice of my weeping. ⁹ Jehovah heard my supplication; Jehovah will receive my prayer ¹⁰ All mine enemies shall be ashamed, they shall tremble exceedingly they shall turn back, they shall be ashamed suddenly. ⁷ ¹ Song of David which he sang to Jehovah upon the words of Cush, son of the right hand. O Jehovah my God, in thee I put My trust: save me from all pursuing me, and deliver me: ² Lest he shall rend my soul as the lion, breaking in pieces and none delivering. ³ O Jehovah my God, if I did this, if there is iniquity in my hand; ⁴ If I rewarded evil him being at peace with me; (and I will deliver mine enemy undeservedly:) ⁵ The enemy will pursue my soul, and overtake; and he will tread down my life to the earth, and he will cause mine honor to dwell upon the dust Silence. ⁶ Arise, O Jehovah, in thine anger, lift up thyself for the wrath of mine enemies: and awake to me the judgment thou didst command. ⁷ And the assembly of the people shall surround thee: and for it turn back on high. ⁸ Jehovah shall judge peoples: judge me, O Jehovah, according to my justice, and according to mine integrity upon me. ⁹ Now shall the evil of the unjust come to an end; and thou wilt direct the just one: for the just God tried hearts and reins. ¹⁰ My shield upon God, saving the upright of heart ¹¹ God judging the just one, and being angry in all the days. ¹² If he shall not turn back, he will sharpen his sword; he bent his bow and he will be prepared. ¹³ And he prepared to himself the instruments of death; he will work his arrows for those inflaming. ¹⁴ Behold, lie will bring forth vanity, and he conceived trouble, and he will bring forth falsehood. ¹⁵ He dug a pit, and he will dig it out, and he will fall into the pitfall he will make. ¹⁶ His trouble shall turn back upon his head, and his violence shall come down upon his crown. ¹⁷ I will confess to Jehovah according to his justice: and I will play on the harp to the name of Jehovah most high. ⁸ ¹ To the overseer upon the stringed instrument, chanting of David. O Jehovah our Lord, how mighty thy name in all the earth! who will set thy majesty over the heavens. ² Out of the mouth of children and sucklings thou hast founded strength on account of thine enemies, to cause the enemy and the avenger to cease. ³ For I shall see thy heavens, the work of thy fingers; the moon and the stars which thou didst prepare. ⁴ What is man that thou wilt remember him? and the son of man that thou wilt review him? ⁵ And thou wilt diminish him a little more than the messengers, and thou wilt surround him with glory and honor. ⁶ And thou wilt give him dominion over the works of thy hands; thou didst put all under his feet: ⁷ Sheep and oxen, all of them, and also the cattle of the field; ⁸ And the birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea, passing through the paths of the seas. ⁹ O Jehovah our Lord, how mighty thy name in all the earth! ⁹ ¹ To the overseer upon the death of Laban, chanting of David. I will praise, O Jehovah, with all my heart; I will recount all thy wonderful works. ² I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will play on the harp to thy name, O Most High. ³ In the turning away of mine enemies backward, they shall be weak and perish from thy face. ⁴ For thou didst my judgment and my cause; thou satest upon the throne judging justice. ⁵ Thou didst rebuke the nations, thou didst destroy the unjust one, wiping off their name forever and ever. ⁶ O enemy! desolations were wholly finished, and thou didst tear down cities; their remembrance perished with them. ⁷ And Jehovah shall dwell forever: he prepared his throne for judgment ⁸ And he will judge the habitable globe in justice, he will judge peoples in uprightness. ⁹ And Jehovah will be a height for the oppressed one, a height for times in straits. ¹⁰ And they knowing thy name will trust in thee, for thou didst not forsake those seeking thee, O Jehovah. ¹¹ Play on the harp to Jehovah dwelling in Zion: announce among the peoples his doings. ¹² For he sought out bloods, be remembered them: he forget not the cry of the humble. ¹³ Compassionate me, O Jehovah: see my affliction from those hating me, thou lifting me up from the gates of death: ¹⁴ So that I shall recount all thy praises in the gates of the daughter of Zion: I will rejoice in thy salvation. ¹⁵ The nations sank into the pit they made: in the net they hid, their foot was taken by it ¹⁶ And Jehovah was known by the judgment he did: by the work of his hands the unjust was snared. Meditation. Silence. ¹⁷ The unjust shall be turned away into hades, all the nations forgetting God. ¹⁸ For the needy shall not be forgotten forever: the hope of the poor shall not perish forever. ¹⁹ Arise, O Jehovah; man shall not be strengthened: the nations shall be judged before thee. ²⁰ Put fear to them, O Jehovah: the nations shall know they are man. Silence. ¹⁰ ¹ Wherefore, O Jehovah, wilt thou stand afar off? wilt thou hide for times in straits? ² In the pride of the unjust he will burn the poor: they shall be taken in the devices that they purposed. ³ For the unjust boasted upon the desire of his soul, and he blessed him plundering, despising Jehovah. ⁴ The unjust according to the height of his anger, will not seek: God is not in all his thoughts. ⁵ His ways will be in pain in all time; thy judgments high from before him: all his enemies he will puff at them. ⁶ Saying in his heart, I shall not be moved: to generation and generation for not in evil. ⁷ His mouth was filled with cursing and deceit and violence: under his tongue, trouble and vanity. ⁸ Sitting in ambush of the enclosures: in hiding-places he will slay the innocent: his eyes will be hid to the afflicted. ⁹ He will lie in wait in secret as the lion in her den: he will lie in wait to catch the poor one: he will catch the poor one in drawing him into his net ¹⁰ And crushing, he will bow down, and cast down the afflicted by his strong ones. ¹¹ Saying in his heart, God forgat: he hid his face; not seeing forever. ¹² Arise, O Jehovah; O God, lift up thine hand: thou wilt not forget the poor. ¹³ For what did the unjust one despise God, saying in his heart, Thou wilt not search? ¹⁴ Thou sawest; for thou wilt look upon trouble and anger, to give with thine hand: the poor will be left to thee; thou wert the helper of the orphan. ¹⁵ Break the arm of the unjust and the evil one: thou wilt seek out his injustice; thou wilt not find. ¹⁶ Jehovah is King forever and ever: the nations perished from his land. ¹⁷ Thou heardest the desire of the poor, O Jehovah: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to attend. ¹⁸ To judge the orphan and the dejected, that the man of the earth shall no more add to make afraid. ¹¹ ¹ To the overseer; of David. In Jehovah I put my trust: how will ye say to my soul, Wander ye to your mountain, little bird? ² For behold, the unjust will bend the bow, they prepared their arrow upon the cord, they will shoot in darkness the upright of heart ³ If the pillars shall be pulled down, what did the just one? ⁴ Jehovah is in his holy temple; Jehovah, in the heavens his throne: his eyes will behold, his eyelashes will try the sons of man. ⁵ Jehovah will try the just one: and the unjust and him loving violence, his soul hated. ⁶ He will rain upon the, unjust, snares, fire and brimstone, and a wind of violent heat: the portion of their cup. ⁷ For Jehovah the just loved justice; his face will behold the upright ¹² ¹ To the overseer upon the octave, chanting of David. Save, O Jehovah, for the merciful one ceased; for faithfulnesses failed from the sons of men. ² They will speak vanity each with his neighbor: smooth lips, with a heart and a heart will they speak ³ Jehovah will cut off all smooth lips, and the tongue speaking great things: ⁴ Who said, By our tongues we shall prevail; our lips are with us: who is Lord over us? ⁵ From the oppression of the poor, from the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, Jehovah will say; I will set with salvation, he will puff at him. ⁶ The sayings of Jehovah are pure sayings: silver tried in the crucible of the earth, purified seven times. ⁷ Thou, O Jehovah, shalt watch them, keep from this generation forever. ⁸ The unjust shall walk round about as the rising of a tempest to the sons of man. ¹³ ¹ To the overseer; chanting of David. ² How long, O Jehovah, wilt thou wholly forget me? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me? ³ How long shall I put counsels in my soul, grief in my heart the day? how long shall mine enemy rise up against me? ⁴ Look upon, answer me, O Jehovah my God: enlighten mine eyes, lest I shall sleep the death; ⁵ Lest mine enemy shall say, I prevailed against him; mine adversaries shall exult when I shall be moved. ⁶ And I trusted in thy mercy; my heart shall exult in thy salvation. I will sing to Jehovah for he benefited me. ¹⁴ ¹ To the overseer; of David. The fool said in his heart, No God. They were corrupted, they made their; works abominable, none doing good. ² Jehovah looked down from the heavens upon the sons of men, to see is there he understanding, seeking God. ³ All turned away together, they were corrupted: none doing good, not even one. ⁴ Did not the workers of vanity know? eating my people they ate bread; they called not Jehovah. ⁵ There they feared a fear: for God is in the generation of the just one. ⁶ Ye will shame the counsel of the poor, for Jehovah is his refuge. ⁷ Who will give out of Zion the salvation of Israel? in Jehovah bringing back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall exult, Israel shall rejoice. ¹⁵ ¹ Chanting of David. O Jehovah, who shall sojourn in thy tent? who shall dwell in thy holy mountain? ² He going blameless, and working justice, and speaking truth in his heart. ³ Slandering not with his tongue, not doing evil to his neighbor, lifting up no reproach against his neighbor. ⁴ In his eyes a reprobate being despised; and those fearing Jehovah, he will honor. Swearing to the friend, and he will not change. ⁵ Not giving his silver for interest, and gave not presents against the innocent. He doing these things shall not be moved forever. ¹⁶ ¹ Writing of David Watch me, O God: in thee I put my trust ² Thou saidst to Jehovah, Thou my Lord: my good not upon thee. ³ To the holy ones that are upon the earth, they and the mighty ones, all my delight is in them. ⁴ Their labors shall be multiplied after they hastened: I will not gather their libations of blood, and I will not lift up their names upon my lips. ⁵ Jehovah the portion of my part and of my cup: thou didst hold up my lot. ⁶ The cords fell to me in sweetnesses; also the inheritance was bountiful upon me. ⁷ I will praise Jehovah who counseled me: also the night my reins instructed me. ⁸ I set Jehovah before me always: for from my right hand I shall not be moved. ⁹ For this my heart rejoiced, and my glory shall exult: also my flesh shall dwell with confidence. ¹⁰ For thou wilt not leave my soul to hades; thou wilt not give thy merciful ones to see corruption. ¹¹ Thou wilt cause me to know the way of life: abundance of joys with thy face; favors in thy right hand forever. ¹⁷ ¹ Prayer of David. Hear justice, O Jehovah, attend to my outcry, give ear to my prayer, not in lips of deceit. ² From thy face shall my judgment go forth; thine eyes will see uprightnesses. ³ Thou didst try my heart; thou didst review the night; thou didst refine me, thou wilt find nothing: I purposed, my mouth shall not pass by. ⁴ For the works of men, by the word of thy lips I watched the ways of the violent one. ⁵ Hold up my being straight in thy ways, my steps be not moved ⁶ I called thee, for thou wilt answer me, O God: incline thine ear to me, hear my sayings. ⁷ Make thy kindnesses distinguished, thou saving those putting their trust, from those rising up against thy right hand. ⁸ Watch me as the pupil of the daughter of the eye: thou wilt hide me in the shadow of thy wings. ⁹ From the face of the unjust that laid me waste, enemies against the soul will go round about against me. ¹⁰ They shut up their fat: their mouth spake in pride. ¹¹ We went straight, now they surrounded us: their eyes they will set to incline to the earth; ¹² His likeness as a lion will long for the prey, and as a young lion dwelling in secret places. ¹³ Arise, O Jehovah, anticipate his face, cast him down: deliver my soul from the unjust, thy sword. ¹⁴ From men of thy hand, O Jehovah, from men of this world their portion in life, and thou wilt fill their belly with thy hidden things: they will be filled with sons, they left the remaining things to their children. ¹⁵ I in justice shall see thy face: I shall be satisfied in awaking with thine appearance. ¹⁸ ¹ To the overseer; to the servant of Jehovah, of David who spake to Jehovah the words of this song in the day Jehovah delivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul: And he will say, I will love thee, O Jehovah, my strength. ² Jehovah is my rock and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my rock, I will put my trust in him; my shield and the horn of my salvation, my height. ³ Praising, I will call upon Jehovah, and I shall be saved from mine enemies. ⁴ The pains of death surrounded me, and the torrents of Belial made me afraid. ⁵ The pains of hades surrounded me: the snares of death anticipated me. ⁶ In my straits I will call upon Jehovah, and to my God will I cry: he will hear my voice from his temple, and my cry will come before him into his ears. ⁷ And it will be moved and the earth will tremble, and the foundations of the mountains will be moved and they will shake, for it was kindled to him. ⁸ A smoke went up in his anger, and fire from his mouth will consume, and coals were kindled from it. ⁹ And he will incline the heavens and come down: and gloom under his feet ¹⁰ And he will ride upon a cherub, and will fly: and he will fly upon the wings of the wind. ¹¹ He will set darkness his covering; his tent round about him darknesses of waters, thick clouds. ¹² From the brightness before him the clouds passed over, hail and coals of fire. ¹³ And Jehovah will thunder in the heavens, and the Most High will give his voice; hail and coals of fire. ¹⁴ And he will send his arrows and scatter them; and he increased lightnings, and he will discomfit them. ¹⁵ And the channels of waters will be seen, and the foundations of the habitable globe will be uncovered from thy rebuke, O Jehovah, from the breathing of the spirit of thine anger. ¹⁶ He will send forth from on high, he will take me, he will draw me out of many waters. ¹⁷ He will deliver me from my strong enemy, and from them hating me: for they were strong above me. ¹⁸ They will anticipate me in the day of my calamity, and Jehovah will be a support to me. ¹⁹ And he will bring me forth to a wide place: he will deliver me, for he delighted in me. ²⁰ Jehovah will recompense me according to my justice, according to the cleanness of my hands he will turn back to me. ²¹ For I watched the ways of Jehovah, and I acted not wickedly from my God. ²² For all his judgments are before me, and his laws I shall not put away from me. ²³ And I blameless with him, and I will watch myself from mine iniquity. ²⁴ And Jehovah will turn back to me according to my justice, and according to the cleanness of my hands before his eyes. ²⁵ With the kind thou wilt show thyself kind; and with the blameless man thou wilt be perfect ²⁶ With the purified thou wilt be purified, and with the perverse thou wilt show thyself perverse ²⁷ Thou wilt save the humble people, and thou wilt humble the eyes of the lifted up. ²⁸ For thou wilt enlighten my lamp Jehovah my God will give light to my darkness. ²⁹ For by thee I will break down a troop, and in my God I will leap upon the wall. ³⁰ God, blameless his way: the saying of Jehovah being refined: a shield to all trusting in him. ³¹ For who is God besides Jehovah? or who a rock except our God? ³² God girding me with strength, and he will give my way blameless. ³³ Setting my feet as the hinds, and he will cause me to stand upon my heights. ³⁴ Teaching my hands to war, and a bow of brass was bent by mine arms. ³⁵ Thou wilt give to me the shield of thy salvation, and thy right hand will uphold me, and thy clemency will enlarge me. ³⁶ Thou wilt make broad my steps under me and my joints did not waver. ³⁷ I will pursue mine enemies, and I will overtake them: and I shall not turn back till consuming them. ³⁸ I will smite them through and through, and they shall not be able to rise: they shall fall under my feet. ³⁹ Thou wilt gird one with strength for war: thou wilt bend under me those rising up against me. ⁴⁰ Mine enemies thou gavest the back of the neck to me, and I shall destroy those hating me. ⁴¹ They will cry and none saving: to Jehovah, and he answered them not ⁴² And I will beat them in pieces as dust upon the face of the wind: I will pour them out as the mire of the streets. ⁴³ Thou wilt deliver me from the contentions of the people; thou wilt set me for head of the nations: a people I knew not shall serve me. ⁴⁴ At the hearing of the ear they shall hear to me: sons of the stranger shall feign to me. ⁴⁵ Sons of the stranger shall fall away, and they shall tremble from their enclosings. ⁴⁶ Jehovah lives; and and praised be my Rock; and the God of my salvation shall be exalted. ⁴⁷ God giving vengeance to me, and he will speak the peoples under me. ⁴⁸ Delivering me from mine enemies: from those rising up thou wilt lift me up: thou wilt deliver me from the man of violence ⁴⁹ For this I will praise thee among the nations, O Jehovah, and I will play on the harp to thy name. ⁵⁰ Magnifying the salvation of his king; and he did mercy to his anointed, and to David and to his seed even to forever. ¹⁹ ¹ To the overseer; chanting of David. The heavens recounting the glory of God, and the firmament announcing the work of his hands. ² Day to day will gush out the saying, and night to night will breathe out knowledge. ³ No saying and no words without their voice being heard. ⁴ Their line went forth into all the earth, and their words into the ends of the habitable globe. In them he set a tent for the sun. ⁵ And he as a bridegroom coming forth from his nuptial couch, will rejoice as a strong one to run a way. ⁶ From the extremity of the heavens his going forth and his circuits upon their extremities and no hiding from his heat. ⁷ The law of Jehovah is blameless, turning back the soul; the testimonies of Jehovah being faithful, making wise the simple. ⁸ The mandates of Jehovah are straight, rejoicing the heart: the command of Jehovah pure, enlightening the eyes. ⁹ The fear of Jehovah being pure, standing forever: the judgments of Jehovah, truth, they were altogether just ¹⁰ Being desirable above gold, and above much pure gold, and being sweet above honey, and the dropping of honey-combs. ¹¹ Also thy servant being admonished by them: in watching them much reward. ¹² Who will understand errors? acquit me from hidden things. ¹³ Also withhold thy servant from arrogant things; they shall not rule over me: then shall I be blameless, and I was acquitted from much transgression. ¹⁴ The saying of my mouth and the meditation of my heart shall be for acceptance before thee, O Jehovah, my rock and my redeemer. ²⁰ ¹ To the overseer; chanting of David. Jehovah will answer thee in the day of straits; the name of the God of Jacob shall exalt thee. ² He will send thy help from the holy place and from Zion he will support thee. ³ He will remember all thy gifts, and he will make fat thy burnt-offerings. Silence. ⁴ He will give to thee according to thy heart, and fill up all thy counsel ⁵ We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our God we will cover over: Jehovah will fill up all our petitions. ⁶ Now I knew that Jehovah saved his Messiah; he will answer him from his holy heavens by the strength of the salvation of his right hand. ⁷ These in chariots, and these in horses: and in the name of Jehovah our God will we remember. ⁸ They bowed down and they fell: and we arose, and we shall stand erect ⁹ O Jehovah, save: the king he will answer us in the day of our calling. ²¹ ¹ To the overseer; chanting of David. O Jehovah, in thy strength shall the king rejoice; and in thy salvation how shall he greatly exult ² The desire of his heart thou gavest to him, and the longing of his lips thou didst not withhold. Silence. ³ For thou wilt anticipate him with praises of goodness: thou wilt set a crown of pure gold to his head. ⁴ He asked life from thee; thou gavest to him length of days forever and ever. ⁵ Great his glory in thy salvation: majesty and honor thou wilt set upon him. ⁶ For thou wilt set him praises forever: thou wilt make him glad in joy with thy face. ⁷ For the king trusted in Jehovah, and in the mercy of the Most High he shall not be moved. ⁸ Thy hand shall find for all thine enemies: thy right hand shall find those hating thee. ⁹ Thou wilt set them as a furnace of fire for the time of thy face: Jehovah in his anger will swallow them down, and the fire shall devour them. ¹⁰ Their fruit thou wilt destroy from the earth, and their seed from the sons of man. ¹¹ For they stretched out evil upon thee: they purposed a device, they will not prevail. ¹² For thou wilt set them the shoulder among thine being left, thou wilt prepare against their face. ¹³ Be thou exalted, O Jehovah, in thy strength: we will sing and play thy powers upon the harp. ²² ¹ To the overseer upon the first place of the dawn; chanting of David. My God, my God, wherefore forsookest thou me? far off from my salvation the words of my groaning. ² My God, I will call in the day, and thou wilt not answer; and in the night no silence to me. ³ And thou inhabiting the holy place, the praises of Israel. ⁴ In thee our fathers trusted: they trusted, and thou wilt deliver them. ⁵ To thee they cried and were delivered: in thee they trusted and were not ashamed. ⁶ And I a worm and not a man; a reproach of man, and the people despised me. ⁷ All seeing me will deride me: they will gape with the lip, they will shake the head. ⁸ He rolled upon Jehovah, he will deliver him: he will deliver him for he delighted in him. ⁹ Thou causing me to break forth from the womb: causing me to trust upon my mother's breasts. ¹⁰ Upon thee was I cast from the womb: from my mother's belly thou my God. ¹¹ Thou wilt not remove far from me, for straits draw near; for none helping. ¹² Many bulls surrounded me: the strong of Bashan surrounded me. ¹³ They opened their mouth upon me, a lion rending and roaring. ¹⁴ I was poured out as water, and all my bones were sundered; my heart was as wax being melted in the midst of my bowels. ¹⁵ My strength was dried up as the potsherd, and my tongue cleaving to my jaws; and thou wilt set me for the dust of death. ¹⁶ For dogs surrounded me: the assembly of those being evil moved round about me: they digged my hands and my feet ¹⁷ I shall number all my bones: they will behold and look upon me. ¹⁸ They will divide my garments to them, and upon my clothing they will cast the lot ¹⁹ And thou, O Jehovah, wilt not be far off: O my strength, hasten to help me. ²⁰ Deliver my soul from the sword, my only one from the band of the dog. ²¹ Save me from the mouth of the lion: and thou didst answer me from the horns of the high. ²² I will recount thy name to my brethren: in the midst of the convocation I will praise thee. ²³ Ye fearing Jehovah, praise him; all the seed of Jacob honor him; and be afraid of him all ye seed of Israel. ²⁴ For he despised not and he abhorred not the afflictions of the bumble; and he hid not his face from him, and in his crying to him he heard. ²⁵ Of thee my praise in the great convocation: I will complete my vows before them fearing him. ²⁶ The humble shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise Jehovah they seeking him: your heart shall live forever. ²⁷ All the ends of the earth shall remember and shall turn back to Jehovah: and all the families of the nations shall worship before thee. ²⁸ For to Jehovah the kingdom, and he rules among the nations. ²⁹ All the fat ones of the earth shall eat and worship before him, and all they going down to dust shall bow down, and he preserved not alive his soul. ³⁰ A seed shall serve him; it shall be numbered to Jehovah for a generation. ³¹ They shall come and announce his justice to a people being born, for he made. ²³ ¹ Chanting of David. Jehovah my shepherd, and I shall not want ² He will cause me to lie down in pastures of tender grass: he will lead me to the water of rest ³ He will turn back my soul: he will guide me into the tracks of justice for sake of his name. ⁴ Also if I shall go into the valley of the shadow of death, I shall not be afraid of evil, for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they will comfort me. ⁵ Thou wilt set in order a table before me in front of mine enemies: thou madest fat mine head with oil; my cup being satisfied with drink. ⁶ Surely goodness and mercy, shall pursue me all the days of my life: and I dwelt in the house of Jehovah to the length of days. ²⁴ ¹ To David chanting. To Jehovah the earth and its fulness, the habitable globe and they dwelling in it. ² For he founded it upon the seas, and upon the rivers he will prepare it ³ Who will go up to the mountain of Jehovah? and who shall stand in his holy place? ⁴ The blameless one of hands and the clean of heart; who lifted not up his soul to vanity, and swore not for deceit ⁵ He shall receive a praise from Jehovah, and justice from God saving him. ⁶ This the generation seeking him, searching out thy face O Jacob. Silence. ⁷ Lift up your heads, ye gates, and be ye lifted up, ye openings of eternity, and the King of glory shall come in. ⁸ Who is this King of glory? Jehovah strong and mighty, Jehovah mighty for war. ⁹ Lift up, ye gates, your heads, and be lifted up, ye openings of eternity, and the King of glory shall come in. ¹⁰ Who is he, this King of glory? Jehovah of armies, he is the King of glory. Silence. ²⁵ ¹ To David. To thee, O Jehovah, I will lift up my soul. ² My God, in thee I trusted, I shall not be ashamed: mine enemies shall not exult over me. ³ Also all awaiting thee shall not be ashamed: they transgressing emptily shall be ashamed. ⁴ O Jehovah, cause me to know thy ways; teach me thy paths. ⁵ Cause me to tread in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art God saving me; on thee I waited all the day. ⁶ Remember thy compassions, O Jehovah, and thy mercies; for they are from forever. ⁷ The sins of my youth and my transgressions thou wilt not remember: according to thy mercy remember thou for me for sake of thy goodness, O Jehovah. ⁸ Good and upright is Jehovah: for this he will teach the sinning in the way. ⁹ He will cause the humble to trend in judgment, and he will teach the humble the way. ¹⁰ All the paths of Jehovah are mercy and truth to those watching his covenant and his testimonies. ¹¹ For sake of thy name, O Jehovah, and thou forgavest to mine iniquity; for it was much. ¹² Who this man fearing Jehovah? he will teach him in the way he shall choose. ¹³ His soul shall lodge in good, and his seed shall inherit the earth. ¹⁴ The secret of Jehovah to them fearing him; and his covenant he will cause them to know. ¹⁵ Mine eyes are always to Jehovah, for he will bring forth my feet from the net ¹⁶ Turn to me and pity me, for I alone and afflicted. ¹⁷ The straits of my heart were enlarged: bring me out from my distresses. ¹⁸ See mine affliction and my labor, and let go to all my sins. ¹⁹ See mine enemies, for they were many, and they hated me with the hatred of violence. ²⁰ Watch my soul and deliver me: I shall not be ashamed, for I put my trust in thee. ²¹ Integrity and uprightness shall watch me; for I waited for thee. ²² Redeem Israel, O God, from all his straits. ²⁶ ¹ TO David. Judge me, O Jehovah, for I went in mine integrity, and in Jehovah I trusted: I shall not waver. ² Prove me, O Jehovah, and try me; refine my reins and my heart ³ For thy mercy is before mine eyes, and I walked about in thy truth. ⁴ I sat not with men of vanity, and I will not go in with those lying hid. ⁵ I hated the convocation of those being evil, and with the unjust I will not sit ⁶ I will wash my hands in cleanness, and I will surround thine altar, O Jehovah: ⁷ To hear with the voice of praise, and to recount all thy wonders. ⁸ O Jehovah, I loved the habitation of thy house, and the place of the dwelling of thine honor. ⁹ Thou wilt not gather my soul with the sinning, and my life with men of bloods: ¹⁰ Which in their hands mischief, and their right hand filled with sifts. ¹¹ And I, I will go in mine integrity: redeem me and pity me. ¹² My foot stood in straightness: in the convocations will I praise Jehovah. ²⁷ ¹ To David. Jehovah my light and my saviour; of whom shall I be afraid? Jehovah the strength of my life; from whom shall I tremble? ² In the drawing near of those doing evil to me, to eat my flesh, adversaries and enemies to me, they were weak and fell ³ If a camp shall encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: if war shall rise up against me, in this I trust ⁴ I asked one from Jehovah, I will seek it; I sat in the house of Jehovah all the days of my life, to look upon the sweetness of Jehovah, and to inquire in his temple. ⁵ For he will hide me in the booth in the day of evil: he will cover me with the covering of his tent; he will lift me up upon a rock. ⁶ And now he will lift up my head over mine enemies round about me: and I will sacrifice in his tent sacrifices of rejoicing; I will sing and I will play on the harp to Jehovah. ⁷ Hear my voice, O Jehovah: I will call, and pity me and answer me. ⁸ My heart said to thee, Seek .ye my face; thy face, O Jehovah, I will seek. ⁹ Thou wilt not cover thy face from me; thou wilt not turn away thy servant in anger: thou, wert my help; thou wilt not leave me and thou wilt not forsake me, my God saving me. ¹⁰ For my father and my mother forsook me, and Jehovah will gather me. ¹¹ Teach me, O Jehovah, thy way, and lead me in a path of straitness for sake of those pressing me. ¹² Thou wilt not give me to the soul of him pressing me, for witnesses of falsehood rose up against me, and violence will blow. ¹³ Unless I believed to look upon the goodness of Jehovah in the land of the living. ¹⁴ Wait for Jehovah: be strong, and thy heart shall be strengthened: and wait for Jehovah. ²⁸ ¹ To David. To thee, O Jehovah, will I call, my rock; thou wilt not be silent from me: lest thou wilt be silent from me and I was made like with them going down to the pit ² Hear the voice of my supplications in my crying to thee, in my lifting up my hands to the oracle of thy holy place. ³ Thou wilt not draw me with the unjust, and with those working vanity, speaking peace with their neighbors, and evil in their heart ⁴ Give to them according to their work and according to the evil of their doings, according to the word of their hands; give to them, turn back to them their recompense. ⁵ For they will not understand for the doing of Jehovah, and for the work of his hands; he will destroy them and he will not build them up. ⁶ Praised be Jehovah, for he heard the voice of my supplications ⁷ Jehovah my strength and my shield; in him my heart trusted, and I was helped: and my heart will exult, and from my song will I praise him. ⁸ Jehovah strength to them, and he the fortress of salvations of his Messiah. ⁹ Save thy people and bless thine inheritance, and feed them and lift them up even forever. ²⁹ ¹ Chanting of David. Give to Jehovah, ye sons of God, give to Jehovah glory and strength. ² Give to Jehovah the glory of his name; worship to Jehovah in the splendors of his holy place. ³ The voice of Jehovah upon the waters: the God of glory thundered: Jehovah upon many waters. ⁴ The voice of Jehovah in power; the voice of Jehovah in splendor. ⁵ The voice of Jehovah broke the cedars; and Jehovah will break the cedars of Lebanon. ⁶ And he will cause them to leap as a calf; Lebanon and Sirion as the son of buffaloes. ⁷ The voice of Jehovah cut out the flames of fire. ⁸ The voice of Jehovah will cause the desert to whirl; Jehovah will cause the desert of holiness to whirl. ⁹ The voice of Jehovah will cause the hinds to bring forth, and will uncover the forests: and in his temple every one said, Glory. ¹⁰ Jehovah sat upon the inundation: and Jehovah sat King forever. ¹¹ Jehovah will give strength to his people; he will bless his people with peace. ³⁰ ¹ Chanting a song of consecration of the house of David. I will exalt thee, O Jehovah, for thou didst draw me out, and thou didst not gladden mine enemies to me. ² O Jehovah my God, I cried to thee, and thou wilt heal me. ³ O Jehovah, thou broughtest up my soul from hades: thou didst save me alive from those going down to the pit ⁴ Play on the harp to Jehovah, ye his godly ones, and praise at the remembrance of his holiness. ⁵ For a moment in his anger; life in his acceptance: weeping shall lodge in the evening, and rejoicing for the morning. ⁶ And I said in my security, I shall not be moved forever. ⁷ O Jehovah, in thy good will thou didst cause strength to stand for my mountain: thou didst cover thy face, I was in trepidation. ⁸ To thee, O Jehovah, will I call, and to Jehovah will I make supplication. ⁹ What the profit in my blood in my going down to the pit? shall the dust praise thee? shall it announce thy truth? ¹⁰ Hear, O Jehovah, and pity me: O Jehovah, be a helper to me. ¹¹ Thou didst turn my wailing to dancing to me: thou didst loose my sackcloth, and thou wilt gird me with gladness; ¹² So that glory shall play on the harp to thee, and shall not be silent O Jehovah my God, I will praise thee forever.
