¹ To the Overseer. —By David. A fool hath said in his heart, `God is not;' They have done corruptly, They have done abominable actions, There is not a doer of good.

⁹ Be ye not as a horse—as a mule, Without understanding, With bridle and bit, its ornaments, to curb, Not to come near unto thee.

¹⁰ For he seeth wise men die, Together the foolish and brutish perish, And have left to others their wealth.

²² And I am brutish, and do not know. A beast I have been with Thee.

⁴ I have said to the boastful, `Be not boastful,' And to the wicked, `Raise not up a horn.'

⁸ Consider, ye brutish among the people, And ye foolish, when do ye act wisely?

²² `Till when, ye simple, do ye love simplicity? And have scorners their scorning desired? And do fools hate knowledge?

⁷ Wisdom is high for a fool, In the gate he openeth not his mouth.

² For I am more brutish than any one, And have not the understanding of a man.

³ An ox hath known its owner, And an ass the crib of its master, Israel hath not known, My people hath not understood.

¹⁴ Brutish is every man by knowledge, Put to shame is every refiner by a graven image, For false is his molten image. And there is no breath in them.

²⁰ `And God said to him, Unthinking one! this night thy soul they shall require from thee, and what things thou didst prepare—to whom shall they be?

¹⁴ and the natural man doth not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for to him they are foolishness, and he is not able to know them, because spiritually they are discerned;

³⁶ And Abigail cometh in unto Nabal, and lo, he hath a banquet in his house, like a banquet of the king, and the heart of Nabal is glad within him, and he is drunk unto excess, and she hath not declared to him anything, less or more, till the light of the morning. ³⁷ And it cometh to pass in the morning, when the wine is gone out from Nabal, that his wife declareth to him these things, and his heart dieth within him, and he hath been as a stone. ³⁸ And it cometh to pass, in about ten days, that Jehovah smiteth Nabal, and he dieth,

⁶ At peace are the tents of spoilers, And those provoking God have confidence, He into whose hand God hath brought.

⁷ Wherefore do the wicked live? They have become old, Yea, they have been mighty in wealth. ⁸ Their seed is established, Before their face with them, And their offspring before their eyes. ⁹ Their houses are peace without fear, Nor is a rod of God upon them. ¹⁰ His bullock hath eaten corn, and doth not loath. His cow bringeth forth safely, And doth not miscarry. ¹¹ They send forth as a flock their sucklings, And their children skip, ¹² They lift themselves up at timbrel and harp, And rejoice at the sound of an organ.

¹ By David. Do not fret because of evil doers, Be not envious against doers of iniquity, ² For as grass speedily they are cut off, And as the greenness of the tender grass do fade.

³⁵ I have seen the wicked terrible, And spreading as a green native plant, ³⁶ And he passeth away, and lo, he is not, And I seek him, and he is not found!

³⁸ And transgressors were destroyed together, The latter end of the wicked was cut off.

¹² Lo, these are the wicked and easy ones of the age, They have increased strength.

¹⁸ Only, in slippery places Thou dost set them, Thou hast caused them to fall to desolations. ¹⁹ How have they become a desolation as in a moment, They have been ended—consumed from terrors. ²⁰ As a dream from awakening, O Lord, In awaking, their image Thou despisest.

⁵ Thou hast inundated them, they are asleep, In the morning as grass he changeth. ⁶ In the morning it flourisheth, and hath changed, At evening it is cut down, and hath withered.

⁴ They utter—they speak an old saw, All working iniquity do boast themselves.

¹⁵ Mortal man! as grass are his days, As a flower of the field so he flourisheth; ¹⁶ For a wind hath passed over it, and it is not, And its place doth not discern it any more.

³² For the turning of the simple slayeth them, And the security of the foolish destroyeth them.

²⁷ And their inhabitants are feeble-handed, They were broken down, and are dried up. They have been the herb of the field, And the greenness of the tender grass, Grass of the roofs, And blasted corn, before it hath risen up.

⁶ A voice is saying, `Call,' And he said, `What do I call?' All flesh is grass, and all its goodliness is As a flower of the field: ⁷ Withered hath grass, faded the flower, For the Spirit of Jehovah blew upon it, Surely the people is grass;

¹ Righteous art Thou, O Jehovah, When I plead towards thee, Only, judgments do I speak with Thee, Wherefore did the way of the wicked prosper? At rest have been all treacherous dealers. ² Thou hast planted them, yea, they have taken root, They go on, yea, they have made fruit, Near art Thou in their mouth, And far off from their reins.

¹⁵ And now, we are declaring the proud happy, Yea, built up have been those doing wickedness, Yea they have tempted God, and escape.'

¹ For, lo, the day hath come, burning as a furnace, And all the proud, and every wicked doer, have been stubble, And burnt them hath the day that came, Said Jehovah of Hosts, That there is not left to them root or branch,

¹⁹ `And—a certain man was rich, and was clothed in purple and fine linen, making merry sumptuously every day, <sup>20</sup> and there was a certain poor man, by name Lazarus, who was laid at his porch, full of sores, <sup>21</sup> and desiring to be filled from the crumbs that are falling from the table of the rich man; yea, also the dogs, coming, were licking his sores. <sup>22</sup> `And it came to pass, that the poor man died, and that he was carried away by the messengers to the bosom of Abraham—and the rich man also died, and was buried; ²³ and in the hades having lifted up his eyes, being in torments, he doth see Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom, ²⁴ and having cried, he said, Father Abraham, deal kindly with me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and may cool my tongue, because I am distressed in this flame. ²⁵ `And Abraham said, Child, remember that thou did receive—thou—thy good things in thy life, and Lazarus in like manner the evil things, and now he is comforted, and thou art distressed;

¹⁰ and the rich in his becoming low, because as a flower of grass he shall pass away; ¹¹ for the sun did rise with the burning heat, and did wither the grass, and the flower of it fell, and the grace of its appearance did perish, so also the rich in his way shall fade away!

²⁴ because all flesh is as grass, and all glory of man as flower of grass; wither did the grass, and the flower of it fell away,

¹¹ now I have known that Jehovah is greater than all the gods, for in the thing they have acted proudly—He is above them!'

² Mine enemies have swallowed up all the day, For many are fighting against me, O most High,

¹⁸ And they know that Thou—(Thy name is Jehovah—by Thyself,) Art the Most High over all the earth!

⁴ Than the voices of many mighty waters, Breakers of a sea, mighty on high is Jehovah,

²⁶ They—They perish, and Thou remainest, And all of them as a garment become old, As clothing Thou changest them, And they are changed. ²⁷ And Thou art the same, and Thine years are not finished.

⁸ If oppression of the poor, and violent taking away of judgment and righteousness thou seest in a province, do not marvel at the matter, for a higher than the high is observing, and high ones are over them.

³⁴ `And at the end of the days I, Nebuchadnezzar, mine eyes to the heavens have lifted up, and mine understanding unto me returneth, and the Most High I have blessed, and the Age-during Living One I have praised and honoured, whose dominion is a dominion age-during, and His kingdom with generation and generation; ³⁵ and all who are dwelling on the earth as nothing are reckoned, and according to his will He is doing among the forces of the heavens and those dwelling on the earth, and there is none that doth clap with his hand, and saith to Him, What hast Thou done?

¹ And about that time, Herod the king put forth his hands, to do evil to certain of those of the assembly,

²² and the populace were shouting, `The voice of a god, and not of a man;' ²³ and presently there smote him a messenger of the Lord, because he did not give the glory to God, and having been eaten of worms, he expired. ²⁴ And the word of God did grow and did multiply,

³³ And you I scatter among nations, and have drawn out after you a sword, and your land hath been a desolation, and your cities are a waste.

³⁵ And it cometh to pass in the journeying of the ark, that Moses saith, `Rise, O Jehovah, and Thine enemies are scattered, and those hating Thee flee from Thy presence.'

⁶⁴ and Jehovah hath scattered thee among all the peoples, from the end of the earth even unto the end of the earth; and thou hast served there other gods which thou hast not known, thou and thy fathers—wood and stone.

³¹ So do all Thine enemies perish, O Jehovah, And those loving Him are As the going out of the sun in its might!' and the land resteth forty years.

⁴ Not so the wicked: But—as chaff that wind driveth away!

⁸ Thy hand cometh to all Thine enemies, Thy right hand doth find Thy haters. ⁹ Thou makest them as a furnace of fire, At the time of Thy presence. Jehovah in His anger doth swallow them, And fire doth devour them.

²⁰ But the wicked perish, and the enemies of Jehovah, As the preciousness of lambs, Have been consumed, In smoke they have been consumed.

¹¹ Slay them not, lest my people forget, Shake them by Thy strength, And bring them down, O Lord our shield.

¹ To the Overseer. —A Psalm, a song of David. Rise doth God—scattered are His enemies! And those hating Him flee from His face. ² As the driving away of smoke Thou drivest away, As the melting of wax before fire, The wicked perish at the presence of God.

³⁰ Rebuke a beast of the reeds, a company of bulls, With calves of the peoples, Each humbling himself with pieces of silver, Scatter Thou peoples delighting in conflicts.

²⁷ For, lo, those far from Thee do perish, Thou hast cut off every one, Who is going a whoring from Thee.

¹⁰ Thou hast bruised Rahab, as one wounded. With the arm of Thy strength Thou hast scattered Thine enemies.

¹³ Nations as the wasting of many waters are wasted, And He hath pushed against it, And it hath fled afar off, And been pursued as chaff of hills before wind, And as a rolling thing before a hurricane.

¹² Thy third part—by pestilence they die, And by famine are consumed in thy midst, And the third part, by sword they fall round about thee, And the third part, to every wind I scatter, And a sword I draw out after them.

²³ and then I will acknowledge to them, that—I never knew you, depart from me ye who are working lawlessness.

²⁷ but those my enemies, who did not wish me to reign over them, bring hither and slay before me.'

²⁴ and they shall fall by the mouth of the sword, and shall be led captive to all the nations, and Jerusalem shall be trodden down by nations, till the times of nations be fulfilled.

⁷ and to you who are troubled—rest with us in the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven, with messengers of his power, ⁸ in flaming fire, giving vengeance to those not knowing God, and to those not obeying the good news of our Lord Jesus Christ; ⁹ who shall suffer justice—destruction age-during—from the face of the Lord, and from the glory of his strength,

²² God is bringing them out from Egypt, As the swiftness of a Reem is to him;

⁸ God is bringing him out of Egypt; As the swiftness of a Reem is to him, He eateth up nations his adversaries, And their bones he breaketh, And with his arrows he smiteth,

¹ And Hannah prayeth, and saith: `My heart hath exulted in Jehovah, My horn hath been high in Jehovah, My mouth hath been large over mine enemies, For I have rejoiced in Thy salvation.

¹⁰ Jehovah—broken down are His adversaries, Against them in the heavens He thundereth: Jehovah judgeth the ends of earth, And giveth strength to His king, And exalteth the horn of His anointed.'

⁵ Thou arrangest before me a table, Over-against my adversaries, Thou hast anointed with oil my head, My cup is full!

⁷ Thou hast loved righteousness and hatest wickedness, Therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee, Oil of joy above thy companions.

¹⁰ And all horns of the wicked I cut off, Exalted are the horns of the righteous!

¹⁷ For the beauty of their strength art Thou, And in Thy good will is our horn exalted,

²⁴ And My faithfulness and kindness are with him, And in My name is his horn exalted.

⁹ He hath scattered—hath given to the needy, His righteousness is standing for ever, His horn is exalted with honour.

¹⁷ There I cause to spring up a horn for David, I have arranged a lamp for Mine anointed.

¹⁴ And He exalteth the horn of His people, The praise of all His saints, Of the sons of Israel, a people near Him. Praise ye Jah!

⁶⁹ And did raise an horn of salvation to us, In the house of David His servant,

²¹ and He who is confirming you with us into Christ, and did anoint us, is God,

²⁰ And ye have an anointing from the Holy One, and have known all things;

³⁴ Look unto Jehovah, and keep His way, And He doth exalt thee to possess the land, In the wicked being cut off—thou seest!

⁷ For, from all adversity He delivered me, And on mine enemies hath mine eye looked!

¹⁰ God doth go before me, He causeth me to look on mine enemies.

⁸ But with thine eyes thou lookest, And the reward of the wicked thou seest,

⁸ Sustained is his heart—he feareth not, Till that he look on his adversaries.

⁶ As valleys they have been stretched out, As gardens by a river; As aloes Jehovah hath planted, As cedars by waters;

³³ and he speaketh concerning the trees, from the cedar that is in Lebanon, even unto the hyssop that is coming out in the wall, and he speaketh concerning the cattle, and concerning the fowl, and concerning the creeping things, and concerning the fishes,

²⁹ and all the walls of the house round about he hath carved with openings of carvings, cherubs, and palm trees, and openings of flowers, within and without.

³ And he hath been as a tree, Planted by rivulets of water, That giveth its fruit in its season, And its leaf doth not wither, And all that he doth he causeth to prosper.

⁸ And I, as a green olive in the house of God, I have trusted in the kindness of God, To the age and for ever,

⁷ Flourish in his days doth the righteous, And abundance of peace till the moon is not.

⁷ When the wicked flourish as a herb, And blossom do all workers of iniquity—For their being destroyed for ever and ever!

¹⁶ Satisfied are the trees of Jehovah, Cedars of Lebanon that He hath planted,

⁹ The mountains and all heights, Fruit tree, and all cedars,

¹³ Instead of the thorn come up doth fir, Instead of the brier come up doth myrtle, And it hath been to Jehovah for a name, For a sign age-during—it is not cut off!

²² They do not build, and another inhabit, They do not plant, and another eat, For as the days of a tree are the days of My people, And the work of their hands wear out do My chosen ones.

⁸ And hath been as a tree planted by waters, And by a rivulet he sendeth forth his roots, And he doth not see when heat cometh, And his leaf hath been green, And in a year of dearth he is not sorrowful, Nor doth he cease from making fruit.

⁵ I am as dew to Israel, he flourisheth as a lily, And he striketh forth his roots as Lebanon. ⁶ Go on do his sucklings, And his beauty is as an olive, And he hath fragrance as Lebanon.

⁹ And I—I have destroyed the Amorite from before them, Whose height is as the height of cedars, And strong he is as the oaks, And I destroy his fruit from above, And his roots from beneath.

⁹ And he maketh the court of the priests, and the great court, and doors for the court, and their doors he hath overlaid with brass.

⁴ Enter ye His gates with thanksgiving, His courts with praise, Give ye thanks to Him, bless ye His Name.

¹⁹ In the courts of the house of Jehovah, In thy midst, O Jerusalem, praise ye Jah!

² Who are standing in the house of Jehovah, In the courts of the house of our God.

²¹ And thy people are all of them righteous, To the age they possess the earth, A branch of My planting, A work of My hands, to be beautified.

³ To appoint to mourners in Zion, To give to them beauty instead of ashes, The oil of joy instead of mourning, A covering of praise for a spirit of weakness, And He is calling to them, `Trees of righteousness, The planting of Jehovah—to be beautified.'

⁵ For, if we have become planted together to the likeness of his death, so also we shall be of the rising again;

¹⁷ And if certain of the branches were broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wast graffed in among them, and a fellow-partaker of the root and of the fatness of the olive tree didst become—

¹⁷ that the Christ may dwell through the faith in your hearts, in love having been rooted and founded, ¹⁸ and increase ye in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ; to him is the glory both now, and to the day of the age! Amen.

¹ And David the king saith to all the assembly, `Solomon my son—the one on whom God hath fixed—is young and tender, and the work is great, for not for man is the palace, but for Jehovah God; <sup>2</sup> and with all my power I have prepared for the house of my God, the gold for things of gold, and the silver for those of silver, and the brass for those of brass, the iron for those of iron, and the wood for those of wood, shoham stones, and settings, and stones of painting and of diverse colours, and all kinds of precious stone, and stones of white marble, in abundance. <sup>3</sup> `And again, because of my delighting in the house of my God, the substance I have—a peculiar treasure of gold and silver—I have given for the house of my God, even over and above all I have prepared for the house of the sanctuary: ⁴ three thousand talents of gold, of the gold of Ophir, and seven thousand talents of refined silver, to overlay the walls of the houses, ⁵ even gold for things of gold, and silver for those of silver, and for all the work by the hand of artificers; and who is he that is offering willingly to consecrate his hand to-day to Jehovah?' ⁶ And the heads of the fathers, and the heads of the tribes of Israel, and the heads of the thousands, and of the hundreds, even to the heads of the work of the king, offer willingly. ⁷ And they give for the service of the house of God, of gold—talents five thousand, and drams a myriad; and of silver—talents ten thousand, and of brass—a myriad and eight thousand talents; and of iron—a hundred thousand talents; ⁸ and he with whom stones are found hath given to the treasury of the house of Jehovah, by the hand of Jehiel the Gershonite. ⁹ And the people rejoice because of their offering willingly, for with a perfect heart they have offered willingly to Jehovah; and also David the king hath rejoiced—great joy.
¹⁰ And David blesseth Jehovah before the eyes of all the assembly, and David saith, `Blessed art Thou, Jehovah, God of Israel our father, from age even unto age. <sup>11</sup> To Thee, O Jehovah, is the greatness, and the might, and the beauty, and the victory, and the honour, because of all in the heavens and in the earth; to Thee, O Jehovah, is the kingdom, and he who is lifting up himself over all for head; <sup>12</sup> and the riches, and the honour are from before Thee, and Thou art ruling over all, and in Thy hand is power and might, and in Thy hand, to make great, and to give strength to all. <sup>13</sup> `And now, our God, we are giving thanks to Thee, and giving praise to Thy beauteous name; ¹⁴ yea, because, who am I, and who are my people, that we retain power to offer thus willingly? but of Thee is the whole, and out of Thy hand we have given to Thee; ¹⁵ for sojourners we are before Thee, and settlers, like all our fathers; as a shadow are our days on the land, and there is none abiding. ¹⁶ `O Jehovah our God, all this store that we have prepared to build to Thee a house, for Thy holy name, is out of Thy hand, and of Thee is the whole. <sup>17</sup> `And I have known, my God, that Thou art trying the heart, and uprightness dost desire; I, in the uprightness of my heart, have willingly offered all these: and now, Thy people who are found here I have seen with joy to offer willingly to Thee. ¹⁸ `O Jehovah, God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, our fathers, keep this to the age for the imagination of the thoughts of the heart of Thy people, and prepare their heart unto Thee; <sup>19</sup> and to Solomon my son give a perfect heart, to keep Thy commands, Thy testimonies, and Thy statutes, and to do the whole, even to build the palace for which I have prepared.' <sup>20</sup> And David saith to all the assembly, `Bless, I pray you, Jehovah your God;' and all the assembly bless Jehovah, God of their fathers, and bow and do obeisance to Jehovah, and to the king. ²¹ And they sacrifice to Jehovah sacrifices, and cause to ascend burnt-offerings to Jehovah on the morrow of that day, bullocks a thousand, rams a thousand, lambs a thousand, and their oblations, even sacrifices in abundance, for all Israel. ²² And they eat and drink before Jehovah on that day with great joy, and cause Solomon son of David to reign a second time, and anoint him before Jehovah for leader, and Zadok for priest.
²³ And Solomon sitteth on the throne of Jehovah for king instead of David his father, and prospereth, and all Israel hearken unto him, ²⁴ and all the heads, and the mighty men, and also all the sons of king David have given a hand under Solomon the king; ²⁵ and Jehovah maketh Solomon exceedingly great before the eyes of all Israel, and putteth upon him the honour of the kingdom that hath not been on any king over Israel before him. ²⁶ And David son of Jesse hath reigned over all Israel, ²⁷ and the days that he hath reigned over Israel are forty years; in Hebron he reigned seven years, and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty and three; ²⁸ and he dieth in a good old age, satisfied with days, riches, and honour, and reign doth Solomon his son in his stead. ²⁹ And the matters of David the king, the first and the last, lo, they are written beside the matters of Samuel the seer, and beside the matters of Nathan the prophet, and beside the matters of Gad the seer, ³⁰ with all his reign, and his might, and the times that went over him, and over Israel, and over all kingdoms of the lands.

⁹ And the righteous layeth hold on his way, And the clean of hands addeth strength, And—dumb are they all.

¹⁸ And also unto old age and grey hairs, O God, forsake me not, Till I declare Thy strength to a generation, To every one that cometh Thy might.

¹⁸ And the path of the righteous is as a shining light, Going and brightening till the day is established,

⁴ Even to old age I am He, and to grey hairs I carry, I made, and I bear, yea, I carry and deliver.

¹² And by the stream there cometh up on its edge, on this side and on that side, every kind of fruit-tree whose leaf fadeth not, and not consumed is its fruit, according to its months it yieldeth first-fruits, because its waters from the sanctuary are coming forth; and its fruits hath been for food, and its leaf for medicine.

¹⁰ and now also, the axe unto the root of the trees is laid, every tree therefore not bearing good fruit is hewn down, and to fire is cast.

² every branch in me not bearing fruit, He doth take it away, and every one bearing fruit, He doth cleanse by pruning it, that it may bear more fruit; ³ already ye are clean, because of the word that I have spoken to you; ⁴ remain in me, and I in you, as the branch is not able to bear fruit of itself, if it may not remain in the vine, so neither ye, if ye may not remain in me. ⁵ `I am the vine, ye the branches; he who is remaining in me, and I in him, this one doth bear much fruit, because apart from me ye are not able to do anything;

²² And the fruit of the Spirit is: Love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faith, ²³ meekness, temperance: against such there is no law;

¹¹ being filled with the fruit of righteousness, that is through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.
¹² These are in your love-feasts craggy rocks; feasting together with you, without fear shepherding themselves; clouds without water, by winds carried about; trees autumnal, without fruit, twice dead, rooted up;

⁴ The Rock! —perfect is His work, For all His ways are just; God of stedfastness, and without iniquity: Righteous and upright is He.

¹⁰ Therefore, O men of heart, hearken to me; Far be it from God to do wickedness, And from the Mighty to do perverseness:

² Jehovah is my rock, and my bulwark, And my deliverer, My God is my rock, I trust in Him: My shield, and a horn of my salvation, My high tower.

⁶ Only—He is my rock and my salvation, My tower, I am not moved.

¹⁷ Righteous is Jehovah in all His ways, And kind in all His works.

⁵ Jehovah is righteous in her midst, He doth not do perverseness, Morning by morning His judgment he giveth to the light, It hath not been lacking, And the perverse doth not know shame.

²⁷ according as I said to you: My sheep my voice do hear, and I know them, and they follow me, ²⁸ and life age-during I give to them, and they shall not perish—to the age, and no one shall pluck them out of my hand; ²⁹ my Father, who hath given to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to pluck out of the hand of my Father;

¹ `I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman; ² every branch in me not bearing fruit, He doth take it away, and every one bearing fruit, He doth cleanse by pruning it, that it may bear more fruit; ³ already ye are clean, because of the word that I have spoken to you;

¹⁴ What, then, shall we say? unrighteousness is with God? let it not be!

⁸ who also shall confirm you unto the end—unblamable in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ; ⁹ faithful is God, through whom ye were called to the fellowship of His Son Jesus Christ our Lord.

²³ and the God of the peace Himself sanctify you wholly, and may your whole spirit, and soul, and body, be preserved unblameably in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ; ²⁴ stedfast is He who is calling you, who also will do it .

⁶ since it is a righteous thing with God to give back to those troubling you—trouble, ⁷ and to you who are troubled—rest with us in the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven, with messengers of his power,

² upon hope of life age-during, which God, who doth not lie, did promise before times of ages,

⁴ to an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and unfading, reserved in the heavens for you, ⁵ who, in the power of God are being guarded, through faith, unto salvation, ready to be revealed in the last time,
