Psa 1:1 Blessed is the man who has not walked in the counsel of the ungodly, and has not stood in the way of sinners, and has not sat in the seat of evil men.
Psa 1:2 But his pleasure is in the law of the Lord; and in His law will he meditate day and night.
Psa 1:3 And he shall be as a tree planted by the brooks of waters, which shall yield its fruit in its season, and its leaf shall not fall off; and whatsoever he shall do shall prosper.
Psa 1:4 Not so for the ungodly not so; but rather as the chaff which the wind scatters away from the face of the earth.
Psa 1:5 Therefore the ungodly shall not rise in the judgment, nor sinners in the counsel of the just.
Psa 1:6 For the Lord knows the way of the righteous; but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
Psa 2:1 Why did the heathen rage, and the nations imagine vain things?
Psa 2:2 The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers gathered themselves together, against the Lord, and against His Christ;
Psa 2:3 saying, Let us break through Their bonds, and cast away Their yoke from us.
Psa 2:4 He that dwells in the heavens shall laugh them to scorn, and the Lord shall mock them.
Psa 2:5 Then shall He speak to them in His anger, and trouble them in His fury.
Psa 2:6 But I have been made King by Him on Zion His holy mountain,
Psa 2:7 declaring the ordinance of the Lord: the Lord has said to Me, You are My Son, today I have begotten You.
Psa 2:8 Ask of Me, and I shall give You the nations for Your inheritance, and the ends of the earth for Your possession.
Psa 2:9 You shall rule them with a rod of iron; You shall dash them in pieces as a potter's vessel.
Psa 2:10 Now therefore understand, you kings: be instructed, all you that judge the earth.
Psa 2:11 Serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice in Him with trembling.
Psa 2:12 Accept correction, lest at any time the Lord be angry, and you should perish from the righteous way. Whenever His wrath shall be suddenly kindled, blessed are all they that trust in Him.
Psa 3:1 A Psalm of David, when he fled from the presence of his son Absalom. O Lord, why are they that afflict me multiplied? Many rise up against me.
Psa 3:2 Many say concerning my soul, There is no deliverance for him in his God. Pause.
Psa 3:3 But You, O Lord, are my helper; my glory, and the One that lifts up my head.
Psa 3:4 I cried to the Lord with my voice, and He heard me out of His holy mountain. Pause.
Psa 3:5 I laid down and slept; I awoke, for the Lord will help me.
Psa 3:6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, who beset me round about.
Psa 3:7 Arise, O Lord; deliver me, my God; for You have struck all who were my enemies without cause; You have broken the teeth of sinners.
Psa 3:8 Deliverance is the Lord's, and Your blessing is upon Your people.
Psa 4:1 For the end, A Song of David among the Psalms. When I called upon Him, the God of my righteousness heard me; You have made room for me in tribulation; pity me, and hearken to my prayer.
Psa 4:2 O you sons of men, how long will you be slow to hear? Why do you love vanity, and seek falsehood? Pause.
Psa 4:3 But know that the Lord has done wondrous things for His holy one: the Lord will hear me when I cry to Him.
Psa 4:4 Be angry, and sin not; feel compunction upon your beds for what you say in your hearts. Pause.
Psa 4:5 Offer the sacrifice of righteousness, and trust in the Lord.
Psa 4:6 Many say, Who will show us good things? The light of Your countenance, O Lord, has been manifested towards us.
Psa 4:7 You have put gladness into my heart: they have been satisfied with the fruit of their grain and wine and oil.
Psa 4:8 I will both lie down in peace and sleep; for You alone, O Lord, have caused me to dwell securely.
Psa 5:1 For the end, A Psalm of David, concerning her that inherits. Hearken to my words, O Lord, attend to my cry.
Psa 5:2 Attend to the voice of my supplication, my King, and my God; for to You, O Lord, will I pray.
Psa 5:3 In the morning You shall hear my voice: in the morning will I wait upon You, and will look up.
Psa 5:4 For You are not a God that desires iniquity; neither shall the worker of wickedness dwell with You.
Psa 5:5 Neither shall the transgressors continue in Your sight. You hate, O Lord, all them that work iniquity.
Psa 5:6 You will destroy all that speak falsehood: the Lord abhors the bloody and deceitful man.
Psa 5:7 But I will enter into Your house in the multitude of Your mercy; I will worship in Your fear toward Your holy temple.
Psa 5:8 Lead me, O Lord, in Your righteousness because of my enemies; make my way plain before Your face.
Psa 5:9 For there is no truth in their mouth; their heart is vain; their throat is an open tomb; with their tongues they have used deceit.
Psa 5:10 Judge them, O God; let them fail of their counsels: cast them out according to the abundance of their ungodliness; for they have provoked You, O Lord.
Psa 5:11 But let all that trust in You be glad in You: they shall rejoice forever, and You shall dwell among them; and all that love Your name shall rejoice in You.
Psa 5:12 For You, O Lord, shall bless the righteous: You have compassed us as with a shield of favor.
Psa 6:1 For the end, A Psalm of David among the Hymns for the eighth. O Lord, rebuke me not in Your wrath, neither chasten me in Your anger.
Psa 6:2 Pity me, O Lord; for I am weak: heal me, O Lord; for my bones are vexed.
Psa 6:3 My soul also is grievously vexed: but You, O Lord, how long?
Psa 6:4 Return, O Lord, deliver my soul: save me for Your mercy's sake.
Psa 6:5 For in death no man remembers You; and who will give You thanks in Hades?
Psa 6:6 I am wearied with my groaning; I shall wash my bed every night; I shall water my couch with tears.
Psa 6:7 My eye is troubled because of my wrath; I am worn out because of all my enemies.
Psa 6:8 Depart from me, all you that work iniquity; for the Lord has heard the voice of my weeping.
Psa 6:9 The Lord has hearkened to my petition; the Lord has accepted my prayer.
Psa 6:10 Let all my enemies be put to shame and greatly troubled: let them be turned back and grievously put to shame speedily.
Psa 7:1 A Psalm of David, which he sang to the Lord because of the words of Cush the Benjamite. O Lord my God, in You have I trusted: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me,
Psa 7:2 lest at any time the enemy seize my soul as a lion, while there is none to ransom, nor to save.
Psa 7:3 O Lord my God, if I have done this; (if there is unrighteousness in my hands)
Psa 7:4 if I have requited with evil those who requited me with good; may I then perish empty by means of my enemies.
Psa 7:5 Let the enemy persecute my soul, and take it; and let him trample my life on the ground, and lay my glory in the dust. Pause.
Psa 7:6 Arise, O Lord, in Your wrath; be exalted in the utmost boundaries of my enemies: awake, O Lord my God, according to the decree which You did command.
Psa 7:7 And the congregation of the nations shall compass You: and for this cause do You return on high.
Psa 7:8 The Lord shall judge the nations: judge me, O Lord, according to my righteousness, and according to my innocence that is in me.
Psa 7:9 Oh let the wickedness of sinners come to an end; and then You shall direct the righteous, O God that searches the hearts and minds.
Psa 7:10 My help is righteous, coming from God, who saves the upright in heart.
Psa 7:11 God is a righteous Judge, and strong, and patient, not inflicting vengeance every day.
Psa 7:12 If you will not repent, He will furbish His sword; He has bent His bow, and made it ready.
Psa 7:13 And on it He has fitted the instruments of death; He has completed His arrows for the raging ones.
Psa 7:14 Behold, the wicked has travailed with unrighteousness; he has conceived trouble, and has brought forth iniquity.
Psa 7:15 He has opened a pit, and dug it up, and he shall fall into the ditch which he has made.
Psa 7:16 His trouble shall return on his own head, and his unrighteousness shall come down on his own crown.
Psa 7:17 I will give thanks to the Lord according to His righteousness; I will sing to the name of the Lord Most High.
Psa 8:1 For the end, concerning the winepresses, A Psalm of David. O Lord, our Lord, how wonderful is Your name in all the earth! For Your magnificence is exalted above the heavens.
Psa 8:2 Out of the mouth of babes and infants You have perfected praise, because of Your enemies; that You might put down the enemy and avenger.
Psa 8:3 For I will regard the heavens, the work of Your fingers; the moon and stars, which You have established.
Psa 8:4 What is man, that You are mindful of him? Or the son of man, that You visit him?
Psa 8:5 You made him a little lower than the angels, You have crowned him with glory and honor;
Psa 8:6 and You have set him over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet:
Psa 8:7 sheep and all oxen yea, and the cattle of the field;
Psa 8:8 the birds of the sky, and the fish of the sea, the creatures passing through the paths of the sea.
Psa 8:9 O Lord our Lord, how wonderful is Your name in all the earth!
Psa 9:1 For the end, A Psalm of David, concerning the secrets of the Son. I will give thanks to You, O Lord, with my whole heart; I will recount all Your wonderful works.
Psa 9:2 I will be glad and exalt in You: I will sing to Your name, O Most High.
Psa 9:3 When my enemies are turned back, they shall be feeble and perish at Your presence.
Psa 9:4 For You have maintained my cause and my right; You sat on the throne, that judges in righteousness.
Psa 9:5 You have rebuked the nations, and the ungodly one has perished; You have blotted out their name forever, even forever and ever.
Psa 9:6 The swords of the enemy have failed utterly; and you have destroyed cities: their memorial has been destroyed with a noise,
Psa 9:7 but the Lord endures forever; He has prepared His throne for judgment.
Psa 9:8 And He will judge the world in righteousness, He will judge the nations in uprightness.
Psa 9:9 The Lord also has become a refuge for the poor, a seasonable help, in affliction.
Psa 9:10 And let them that know Your name hope in You for You, O Lord, have not failed them that diligently seek You.
Psa 9:11 Sing praises to the Lord, who dwells in Zion: declare His dealings among the nations.
Psa 9:12 For He remembered them, in making inquisition for blood; He has not forgotten the supplication of the poor.
Psa 9:13 Have mercy upon me, O Lord; look upon my affliction which I suffer from my enemies, You that lift me up from the gates of death:
Psa 9:14 that I may declare all Your praises in the gates of the daughter of Zion: I will rejoice in Your salvation.
Psa 9:15 The heathen are caught in the destruction which they planned: in the very snare which they hid is their foot taken.
Psa 9:16 The Lord is known as executing judgments: the sinner is taken in the works of his hands. Pause.
Psa 9:17 Let sinners be driven away into Hades, even all the nations that forget God.
Psa 9:18 For the poor shall not be forgotten forever; the patience of the needy ones shall not perish forever.
Psa 9:19 Arise, O Lord, let not man prevail: let the heathen be judged before You.
Psa 9:20 Appoint, O Lord, a lawgiver over them: let the heathen know that they are men. Pause.
Psa 10:1 Why do You stand afar off, O Lord? Why do You overlook us in times of need, in affliction?
Psa 10:2 While the ungodly one acts proudly, the poor is hotly pursued; the wicked are taken in the crafty counsels which they imagine.
Psa 10:3 Because the sinner praises himself for the desires of his heart; and the unjust one blesses himself.
Psa 10:4 The sinner has provoked the Lord: according to the abundance of his pride he will not seek after Him; God is not before him.
Psa 10:5 His ways are profane at all times; Your judgments are removed from before him: he will gain the mastery over all his enemies.
Psa 10:6 For he has said in his heart, I shall not be moved, continuing without adversity from generation to generation.
Psa 10:7 Whose mouth is full of cursing, and bitterness, and fraud: under his tongue are trouble and pain.
Psa 10:8 He lies in wait with rich men in secret places, in order to slay the innocent: his eyes are set against the poor.
Psa 10:9 He lies in wait in secret as a lion in his den: he lies in wait to ravish the poor, to ravish the poor when he draws him after him: he will bring him down in his snare.
Psa 10:10 He will bow down and fall when he has mastered the poor.
Psa 10:11 For he has said in his heart, God has forgotten; He has turned away His face so as never to look.
Psa 10:12 Arise, O Lord God; let Your hand be lifted up: forget not the poor.
Psa 10:13 Why has the wicked provoked God? For he has said in his heart, He will not require it.
Psa 10:14 You see it; for You observe trouble and wrath, to deliver them into Your hands; the poor has been left to You; You are a helper to the orphan.
Psa 10:15 Break the arm of the sinner and wicked man: his sin shall be sought for, and shall not be found.
Psa 10:16 The Lord shall reign forever, even forever and ever: you Gentiles shall perish out His land.
Psa 10:17 The Lord has heard the desire of the poor: Your ear has inclined to the preparation of their heart;
Psa 10:18 to plead for the orphan and afflicted, that man may no more boast upon the earth. <In the Septuagint, Psalms 9 and 10 are combined, and the Psalm numbers differ from this point on. The Apostles' Bible follows the traditional Psalm divisions, to avoid confusion.>
Psa 11:1 For the end, A Psalm of David. In the Lord I have put my trust: how will you say to my soul, Flee to the mountains as a sparrow?
Psa 11:2 For behold the sinners have bent their bow, they have prepared their arrows for the quiver, to shoot secretly at the upright in heart.
Psa 11:3 For they have pulled down what You framed, but what has the righteous done?
Psa 11:4 The Lord is in His holy temple; as for the Lord, His throne is in heaven: His eyes look upon the poor, His eyelids test the sons of men.
Psa 11:5 The Lord tests the righteous and the ungodly: and he that loves unrighteousness hates his own soul.
Psa 11:6 He shall rain upon sinners snares, fire, and brimstone, and a stormy blast shall be the portion of their cup.
Psa 11:7 For the Lord is righteous, and loves righteousness; His face beholds uprightness.
Psa 12:1 For the end, A Psalm of David, upon the eighth. Save me, O Lord; for the godly man has failed; for truth is diminished from among the children of men.
Psa 12:2 Everyone has spoken vanity to his neighbor: their lips are deceitful, they have spoken with a double heart.
Psa 12:3 Let the Lord destroy all the deceitful lips, and the tongue that speaks great words;
Psa 12:4 who have said, We will magnify our tongue; our lips are our own: who is Lord of us?
Psa 12:5 Because of the misery of the poor, and because of the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, says the Lord, I will set them in safety; I will speak to them openly.
Psa 12:6 The oracles of the Lord are pure oracles; as silver tried in the fire, proved in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
Psa 12:7 You, O Lord, shall keep us, and shall preserve us, from this generation, and forever.
Psa 12:8 The ungodly walk around; according to Your greatness You have greatly exalted the sons of men.
Psa 13:1 For the end, A Psalm of David. How long, O Lord, will You forget me? Forever? How long will You turn away Your face from me?
Psa 13:2 How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrows in my heart daily? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?
Psa 13:3 Look on me, hearken to me, O Lord my God: lighten my eyes, lest I sleep in death;
Psa 13:4 lest at any time my enemy say, I have prevailed against him: my persecutors will exalt if ever I should be moved.
Psa 13:5 But I have hoped in Your mercy; my heart shall rejoice in Your salvation.
Psa 13:6 I will sing to the Lord who has dealt bountifully with me, and I will sing psalms to the name of the Lord Most High.
Psa 14:1 For the end, A Psalm of David. The fool has said in his heart, There is no God. They have corrupted themselves, and have become abominable in their devices; there is none that does good, there is not so much as one.
Psa 14:2 The Lord looked down from heaven upon the sons of men, to see if there were any that understood, or sought after God.
Psa 14:3 They have all gone out of the way, they have together become corrupt, there is none that does good, no not one. Their throat is an open tomb; with their tongues they have used deceit. The poison of asps is under their lips: whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness; their feet are swift to shed blood: destruction and misery are in their ways; and the way of peace they have not known: there is no fear of God before their eyes.
Psa 14:4 Will not all the workers of iniquity know, who eat up my people as they would eat bread? They have not called upon the Lord.
Psa 14:5 There were they alarmed with fear, where there was no fear; for God is in the righteous generation.
Psa 14:6 You have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the Lord is his hope.
Psa 14:7 Who will bring the salvation of Israel out of Zion? When the Lord brings back the captivity of His people, let Jacob rejoice, and Israel be glad.
Psa 15:1 A Psalm of David. O Lord, who shall sojourn in Your tabernacle? And who shall dwell in Your holy mountain?
Psa 15:2 He that walks blameless, and works righteousness, who speaks truth in his heart.
Psa 15:3 Who has not spoken craftily with his tongue, neither has done evil to his neighbor, nor taken up a reproach against them that dwell nearest to him.
Psa 15:4 In his sight an evil worker is set at nought, but he honors them that fear the Lord. He swears to his neighbor, and disappoints him not.
Psa 15:5 He has not lent his money on usury, and has not received bribes against the innocent. He that does these things shall never be moved.
Psa 16:1 A writing of David. Keep me, O Lord; for I have hoped in You.
Psa 16:2 I said to the Lord, You are my Lord; my goodness is nothing apart from You.
Psa 16:3 On behalf of the saints that are in His land, He has magnified all His pleasure in them.
Psa 16:4 Their weaknesses have been multiplied; afterward they hastened. I will by no means assemble their bloody meetings, neither will I make mention of their names with my lips.
Psa 16:5 The Lord is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup: You are He that restores my inheritance to me.
Psa 16:6 The lines have fallen to me in the best places; yea, I have a most excellent heritage.
Psa 16:7 I will bless the Lord who has instructed me; my reins too have chastened me even till night.
Psa 16:8 I foresaw the Lord always before my face; for He is on my right hand, that I should not be moved.
Psa 16:9 Therefore my heart rejoiced and my tongue exalted; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope:
Psa 16:10 because You will not leave my soul in Hades, neither will You allow Your Holy One to see corruption.
Psa 16:11 You have made known to me the ways of life; You will fill me with joy with Your countenance: at Your right hand there are delights forever.
Psa 17:1 A Prayer of David. Hearken, O Lord of my righteousness, attend to my petition; give ear to my prayer not uttered with deceitful lips.
Psa 17:2 Let my judgment come forth from Your presence; let my eyes behold righteousness.
Psa 17:3 You has tested my heart; You have visited me in the night; You have tried me as with fire, and unrighteousness has not been found in me; I am purposed that my mouth shall not speak amiss.
Psa 17:4 As for the works of men, by the words of Your lips I have guarded myself from hard ways.
Psa 17:5 Direct my steps in Your paths, that my steps slip not.
Psa 17:6 I have cried, for You heard me, O God: incline Your ear to me, and listen to my words.
Psa 17:7 Show the marvels of Your mercies, You that save them that trust in You.
Psa 17:8 Keep me as the apple of Your eye from those that resist Your right hand; You shall screen me by the covering of Your wings,
Psa 17:9 from the face of the ungodly that have afflicted me; my enemies have compassed about my soul.
Psa 17:10 They have enclosed themselves with their own fat; their mouths have spoken pride.
Psa 17:11 They have now cast me out and compassed me round about. They have set their eyes so as to bow them down to the ground.
Psa 17:12 They laid wait for me as a lion ready for prey, and like a lion's whelp dwelling in secret places.
Psa 17:13 Arise, O Lord, prevent them, and cast them down; deliver my soul from the ungodly; draw Your sword,
Psa 17:14 because of the enemies of Your hand. O Lord, destroy them from the earth; scatter them in their life, though their belly has been filled with Your hidden treasures; they have been satisfied with uncleanness, and have left the remnant of their possessions to their babes.
Psa 17:15 But I shall appear in righteousness before Your face: I shall be satisfied when Your glory appears.
Psa 18:1 For the end, A Psalm of David, the servant of the Lord; the words which he spoke to the Lord, even the words of this song, in the day in which the Lord delivered him out the hand of all his enemies, and out the hand of Saul. And he said: I will love You, O Lord, my strength.
Psa 18:2 The Lord is my firm support, and my refuge, and my deliverer; my God is my helper, I will hope in Him; He is my defender, and the horn of my salvation, and my helper.
Psa 18:3 I will call upon the Lord with praises, and I shall be saved from my enemies.
Psa 18:4 The pangs of death compassed me, and the torrents of ungodliness troubled me exceedingly.
Psa 18:5 The pangs of hell came round about me: the snares of death prevented me.
Psa 18:6 And when I was afflicted I called upon the Lord, and cried to my God: He heard my voice out of His holy temple, and my cry shall enter before Him, into His ears.
Psa 18:7 Then the earth shook and quaked, and the foundations of the mountains were disturbed, and were shaken, because God was angry with them.
Psa 18:8 There went up a smoke in His wrath, and fire burst into a flame at His presence; coals were kindled at it.
Psa 18:9 And He bowed the heaven, and came down: and thick darkness was under His feet.
Psa 18:10 And He rode upon a cherub and flew; He flew on the wings of the wind.
Psa 18:11 And He made darkness His secret place; round about Him was His tabernacle, even dark water in the clouds of the air.
Psa 18:12 At the brightness before Him the clouds passed, hail and coals of fire.
Psa 18:13 The Lord also thundered from heaven, and the Most High uttered His voice.
Psa 18:14 And He sent forth His weapons, and scattered them; and multiplied lightnings, and routed them.
Psa 18:15 And the springs of waters appeared, and the foundations of the world were exposed, at Your rebuke, O Lord, at the blasting of the breath of Your wrath.
Psa 18:16 He sent from on high and took me, He drew me to Himself out of many waters.
Psa 18:17 He will deliver me from my mighty enemies, and from them that hate me; for they are stronger than I.
Psa 18:18 They prevented me in the day of my affliction: but the Lord was my support against them.
Psa 18:19 And He brought me out into a wide place; He shall deliver me, because He has pleasure in me.
Psa 18:20 And the Lord shall recompense me according to my righteousness; even according to the purity of my hands shall He recompense me.
Psa 18:21 For I have kept the way of the Lord and have not wickedly departed from my God.
Psa 18:22 For all His judgments were before me, and His ordinances departed not from me.
Psa 18:23 And I shall be blameless before Him, and shall keep myself from my iniquity.
Psa 18:24 And the Lord shall recompense me according to my righteousness, and according to the purity of my hands before His eyes.
Psa 18:25 With the holy, You shall be holy; and with the blameless, You shall be blameless.
Psa 18:26 And with the excellent, You shall be excellent; and with the perverse, You shall be shrewd.
Psa 18:27 For You shall save the lowly people, and shall humble the eyes of the proud.
Psa 18:28 For You, O Lord, shall light my lamp: my God, You shall lighten my darkness.
Psa 18:29 For by You shall I be delivered from a troop; and by my God I will pass over a wall.
Psa 18:30 As for my God, His way is perfect: the oracles of the Lord are tried in the fire; He is a protector of all them that hope in Him.
Psa 18:31 For who is God but the Lord? And who is a God except our God?
Psa 18:32 It is God that girds me with strength, and has made my way blameless;
Psa 18:33 who strengthens my feet as hare's feet, and sets me upon high places.
Psa 18:34 He instructs my hands for war; and You have made my arms as a bronze bow.
Psa 18:35 And You have made me secure in my salvation; and Your right hand has helped me, and Your correction has upheld me to the end; yea, Your correction itself shall instruct me.
Psa 18:36 You have made room for my goings under me, and my footsteps did not fail.
Psa 18:37 I will pursue my enemies, and overtake them; and I will not turn back until they are consumed.
Psa 18:38 I will dash them to pieces and they shall not be able to stand: they shall fall under my feet.
Psa 18:39 For You have girded me with strength for war; You have beaten down under me all that rose up against me.
Psa 18:40 And You has made my enemies turn their backs before me; and You have destroyed them that hated me.
Psa 18:41 They cried, but there was no deliverer: even to the Lord, but He hearkened not to them.
Psa 18:42 I will grind them as the mud of the streets; and I will beat them small as dust before the wind.
Psa 18:43 Deliver me from the gain sayings of the people; You shall make me head of the Gentiles: a people whom I knew not served me,
Psa 18:44 at the hearing of the ear they obeyed me: the strange children lied to me.
Psa 18:45 The strange children waxed old, and fell away from their paths through lameness.
Psa 18:46 The Lord lives; and blessed be my God; and let the God of my salvation be exalted.
Psa 18:47 It is God that avenges me, and has subdued the nations under me;
Psa 18:48 my deliverer from angry enemies; You shall set me on high above them that rise up against me; You shall deliver me from the unrighteous man.
Psa 18:49 Therefore shall I confess to You, O Lord, among the Gentiles, and sing unto Your name.
Psa 18:50 God magnifies the deliverances of His king; and deals mercifully with David His anointed, and His seed, forever.
Psa 19:1 For the end, A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament proclaims the work of His hands.
Psa 19:2 Day to day utters speech, and night to night proclaims knowledge.
Psa 19:3 There are no speeches or words, in which their voices are not heard.
Psa 19:4 Their voice is gone out into all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.
Psa 19:5 In the sun He has set His tabernacle; and He came forth as a bridegroom out of His chamber; He will exalt as a giant to run His course.
Psa 19:6 His going forth is from the extremity of heaven, and His circuit to the other end of heaven; and no one shall be hidden from His heat.
Psa 19:7 The law of the Lord is perfect, converting souls; the testimony of the Lord is faithful, instructing babes.
Psa 19:8 The ordinances of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the Lord is bright, enlightening the eyes.
Psa 19:9 The fear of the Lord is pure, enduring forever and ever: the judgments of the Lord are true, and justified altogether.
Psa 19:10 To be desired more than gold, and much precious stone; sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.
Psa 19:11 For Your servant keeps to them; in the keeping of them there is great reward.
Psa 19:12 Who will understand his transgressions? Purge me from my secret sins.
Psa 19:13 And spare Your servant from the attack of strangers; if they do not gain the dominion over me, then shall I be blameless, and I shall be clear from great sin.
Psa 19:14 So shall the sayings of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be pleasing continually before You, O Lord my helper, and my redeemer.

Psa 30:7 O Lord, in Your good pleasure You added strength to my beauty; but You turned away Your face, and I was troubled.
Psa 30:8 To You, O Lord, will I cry; and to my God will I make supplication.
Psa 30:9 What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to destruction? Shall the dust give praise to You? Or shall it declare Your truth?

Psa 31:3 For You are my strength and my refuge; and You shall guide me for Your name's sake, and maintain me.
Psa 31:4 You shall bring me out of the snare which they have hidden for me; for You, O Lord, are my defender.

Psa 31:11 I became a reproach among all my enemies, but exceedingly so to my neighbors, and a fear to my acquaintance; they that saw me outside fled from me.
Psa 31:12 I have been forgotten as a dead man out of mind; I have become as a broken vessel.

Psa 31:21 Blessed be the Lord, for He has magnified His mercy in a fortified city.
Psa 31:22 But I said in my extreme fear, I am cast out from the sight of Your eyes; therefore You listened, O Lord, to the voice of my supplication when I cried to You.
Psa 31:23 Love the Lord, all you His saints; for the Lord seeks those that are truthful, and He recompenses them that deal very proudly.
Psa 31:24 Be of good courage, and let your heart be strengthened, all you that hope in the Lord.

Psa 35:5 Let them be as dust before the wind, and an angel of the Lord afflicting them.
Psa 35:6 Let their way be dark and slippery, and an angel of the Lord persecuting them.
Psa 35:7 For without cause they have hid for me their destructive snare; without a cause they have reproached my soul.

Psa 35:12 They rewarded me evil for good, and bereavement to my soul.
Psa 35:13 But I, when they troubled me, put on sackcloth, and humbled my soul with fasting; and my prayer shall return to my own bosom.
Psa 35:14 I behaved agreeably towards them as if it had been our neighbor or brother; I humbled myself as one mourning and sad of countenance.
Psa 35:15 Yet they rejoiced against me, and plagues were plentifully brought against me, and I knew it not; they were scattered, but repented not.

Psa 35:24 Judge me, O Lord, according to Your righteousness, O Lord my God; and let them not rejoice against me.
Psa 35:25 Let them not say in their hearts, Aha, aha, it is pleasing to our soul; neither let them say, We have devoured him.
Psa 35:26 Let them be confounded and ashamed together that rejoice at my afflictions; let them be clothed with shame and confusion that speak great swelling words against me.
Psa 35:27 Let them that rejoice in my righteousness exalt and be glad; and let them say continually, The Lord be magnified, who desires the peace of His servant.
Psa 35:28 And my tongue shall meditate on Your righteousness, and on Your praise all the day.
Psa 36:1 For the end, A Psalm, by David the servant of the Lord. The transgressor, that he may sin, says within himself, that there is no fear of God before his eyes.
Psa 36:2 For he has dealt craftily before him, to discover his iniquity and hate it.
Psa 36:3 The words of his mouth are transgression and deceit; he is not inclined to understand how to do good.
Psa 36:4 He devises iniquity on his bed; he gives himself to every evil way; and does not abhor evil.
Psa 36:5 O Lord, Your mercy is in the heavens; and Your truth reaches to the clouds.
Psa 36:6 Your righteousness is as the mountains of God, Your judgments are as a great deep; O Lord, You will preserve men and beasts.
Psa 36:7 How have You multiplied Your mercy, O God! So the children of men shall trust in the shelter of Your wings.
Psa 36:8 They shall be fully satisfied with the fatness of Your house; and You shall cause them to drink of the full stream of Your delights.
Psa 36:9 For with You is the fountain of life; in Your light we shall see light.
Psa 36:10 Extend Your mercy to them that know You; and Your righteousness to the upright in heart.
Psa 36:11 Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of sinners move me.
Psa 36:12 There the workers of iniquity have fallen; they are cast out, and shall not be able to stand.
Psa 37:1 A Psalm of David. Do not fret because of evildoers, neither be envious of them that do iniquity.
Psa 37:2 For they shall soon be withered as the grass, and shall soon fall away as the green herbs.
Psa 37:3 Hope in the Lord, and do good; and dwell on the land, and you shall be fed with the wealth of it.
Psa 37:4 Delight yourself in the Lord, and He shall grant you the desires of your heart.
Psa 37:5 Disclose Your way to the Lord, and trust in Him; and He shall bring it to pass.
Psa 37:6 And He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light, and your judgment as the noonday.
Psa 37:7 Submit yourself to the Lord, and make supplication to Him; do not fret because of him that prospers in his way, at the man that does unlawful deeds.
Psa 37:8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath; do not fret, so as not to do evil.
Psa 37:9 For evildoers shall be destroyed; but they that wait on the Lord, they shall inherit the land.
Psa 37:10 And yet a little while, and the sinner shall not be, and you shall seek for his place, and shall not find it.
Psa 37:11 But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
Psa 37:12 The sinner will watch for the righteous, and gnash his teeth upon him.
Psa 37:13 But the Lord shall laugh at him; for He foresees that his day will come.
Psa 37:14 Sinners have drawn their swords; they have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, and to slay the upright in heart.
Psa 37:15 Let their sword enter into their own heart, and their bows be broken.
Psa 37:16 A little is better to the righteous than the abundant wealth of sinners.
Psa 37:17 For the arms of sinners shall be broken; but the Lord supports the righteous.
Psa 37:18 The Lord knows the ways of the upright; and their inheritance shall be forever.
Psa 37:19 They shall not be ashamed in an evil time; and in days of famine they shall be satisfied.
Psa 37:20 For the sinners shall perish; and the enemies of the Lord at the moment of their being honored and exalted have utterly vanished like smoke.
Psa 37:21 The sinner borrows, and will not pay again; but the righteous has compassion, and gives.
Psa 37:22 For those that bless Him shall inherit the earth; and they that curse Him shall be utterly destroyed.
Psa 37:23 The steps of a man are rightly ordered by the Lord; and He will take pleasure in his way.
Psa 37:24 When he falls, he shall not be ruined; for the Lord supports his hand.
Psa 37:25 I was once young, indeed I am now old; yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed seeking bread.
Psa 37:26 He is merciful, and lends continually; and his seed shall be blessed.
Psa 37:27 Turn aside from evil, and do good; and dwell forever.
Psa 37:28 For the Lord loves judgment, and will not forsake His saints; they shall be preserved forever; the blameless shall be avenged, but the seed of the ungodly shall be utterly destroyed.
Psa 37:29 But the righteous shall inherit the earth, and dwell upon it forever.
Psa 37:30 The mouth of the righteous will meditate wisdom, and his tongue will speak of judgment.
Psa 37:31 The law of his God is in his heart; and his steps shall not slide.
Psa 37:32 The sinner watches the righteous, and seeks to slay him.
Psa 37:33 But the Lord will not leave him in his hands, nor by any means condemn him when he is judged.
Psa 37:34 Wait on the Lord, and keep His way, and He shall exalt you to inherit the land; when the wicked are destroyed, you shall see it.
Psa 37:35 I saw the ungodly very highly exalting himself, and lifting himself up like the cedars of Lebanon.
Psa 37:36 Yet I passed by, and lo! He was not; and I sought him, but his place was not found.
Psa 37:37 Maintain innocence, and behold uprightness; for there is a remnant to the peaceable man.
Psa 37:38 But the transgressors shall be utterly destroyed together; the remnants of the ungodly shall be utterly destroyed.
Psa 37:39 But the salvation of the righteous is of the Lord; and He is their defender in the time of affliction.
Psa 37:40 And the Lord shall help them, and deliver them; and He shall rescue them from sinners, and save them, because they have hoped in Him.
Psa 38:1 A Psalm of David for remembrance concerning the Sabbath day. O Lord, rebuke me not in Your wrath, neither chasten me in Your anger.
Psa 38:2 For Your weapons are fixed in me, and You have pressed Your hand heavily upon me.
Psa 38:3 For there is no health in my flesh because of Your anger; there is no peace to my bones because of my sins.
Psa 38:4 For my transgressions have gone over my head; they have pressed heavily upon me like a weighty burden.
Psa 38:5 My wounds have become foul and corrupt, because of my foolishness.
Psa 38:6 I have been wretched and bowed down continually; I went with a mourning countenance all the day.
Psa 38:7 For my soul is filled with mockings; and there is no health in my flesh.
Psa 38:8 I have been afflicted and brought down exceedingly; I have roared for the groaning of my heart.
Psa 38:9 But all my desire is before You; and my groaning is not hidden from You.
Psa 38:10 My heart is troubled, my strength has failed me; and the light of my eyes is not with me.
Psa 38:11 My friends and my neighbors drew near before me, and stood sill; and my nearest of kin stood afar off.
Psa 38:12 While they pressed hard upon me that sought my soul; and they that sought my hurt spoke vanities, and devised deceits all the day.
Psa 38:13 But I, as a deaf man, heard not; and was as a dumb man not opening his mouth.
Psa 38:14 And I was as a man that hears not, and who has no reproofs in his mouth.
Psa 38:15 For I hoped in You, O Lord; You will hear, O Lord my God.
Psa 38:16 For I said, Lest my enemies rejoice against me; for when my feet were moved, they spoke boastfully against me.
Psa 38:17 For I am ready for plagues, and my grief is continually before me.
Psa 38:18 For I will declare my iniquity, and be distressed for my sin.
Psa 38:19 But my enemies live, and are mightier than I; and they that hate me unjustly are multiplied.
Psa 38:20 They that reward evil for good slandered me; because I followed righteousness.
Psa 38:21 Forsake me not, O Lord my God; depart not from me.
Psa 38:22 Draw near to my help, O Lord of my salvation.
Psa 39:1 For the end, A Song of David, to Jeduthun. I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue; I set a guard on my mouth, while the sinner stood in my presence.
Psa 39:2 I was dumb, and humbled myself, and kept silence from good words; and my grief was renewed.
Psa 39:3 My heart grew hot within me, and a fire would kindle in my meditation; I spoke with my tongue,
Psa 39:4 O Lord, make me to know my end, and the number of my days, what it is; that I may know what I lack.
Psa 39:5 Behold, You have made my days old; and my existence is as nothing before You; indeed, every man living is altogether vanity. Pause.
Psa 39:6 Surely man walks in a shadow; nay, he is disquieted in vain; he lays up treasures, and knows not for whom he shall gather them.
Psa 39:7 And now what is my expectation? Is it not the Lord? And my ground of hope is with You. Pause.
Psa 39:8 Deliver me from all my transgressions; You have made me a reproach to the foolish.
Psa 39:9 I was dumb, and opened not my mouth; for You are He that made me.
Psa 39:10 Remove Your scourge from me; I have fainted by reason of the strength of Your hand.
Psa 39:11 You chasten man with rebukes for iniquity, and You make his life to consume away like a spider's web; nay, every man is disquieted in vain. Pause.
Psa 39:12 O Lord, hearken to my prayer and my supplication; attend to my tears; be not silent, for I am a sojourner in the land, and a stranger, as all my fathers were.
Psa 39:13 Spare me, that I may be refreshed, before I depart, and be no more.
Psa 40:1 For the end, A Psalm of David. I waited patiently for the Lord; and He attended to me, and hearkened to my supplication.
Psa 40:2 And He brought me up out of a pit of misery, and from miry clay; and He set my feet upon a rock, and established my steps.
Psa 40:3 And He put a new song into my mouth, even a hymn to our God; many shall see it and fear, and shall hope in the Lord.
Psa 40:4 Blessed is the man whose hope is in the name of the Lord, and who has not regarded vanities, nor turned aside to lies.
Psa 40:5 O Lord my God, You have multiplied Your wonderful works, and in Your thoughts there is none who shall be likened to You; I declared and spoke of them; they exceeded in number.
Psa 40:6 Sacrifice and offering You did not desire; but a body You have prepared for me; whole burnt offering and sacrifice for sin You did not require.
Psa 40:7 Then I said, Behold, I have come; in the volume of the book it is written of me,
Psa 40:8 I desired to do Your will, O my God, and Your law in the midst of my heart.
Psa 40:9 I have preached righteousness in the great congregation; lo! I will not refrain my lips; O Lord, You know my righteousness.
Psa 40:10 I have not hid Your truth within my heart, and I have declared Your salvation; I have not hid Your mercy and Your truth from the great congregation.
Psa 40:11 But You, O Lord, remove not Your compassion far from me; Your mercy and Your truth have helped me continually.
Psa 40:12 For innumerable evils have encompassed me; my transgressions have taken hold of me, and I could not see; they are multiplied more than the hairs of my head; and my heart has failed me.
Psa 40:13 Be pleased, O Lord, to deliver me; O Lord, draw near to help me.
Psa 40:14 Let those that seek my soul, to destroy it, be ashamed and confounded together; let those that wish me evil be turned backward and put to shame.
Psa 40:15 Let those that say to me, Aha, aha, quickly receive shame for their reward.
Psa 40:16 Let all those that seek You, O Lord, exalt and rejoice in You; and let them that love Your salvation say continually, The Lord be magnified!
Psa 40:17 But I am poor and needy; the Lord will take care of me; You are my helper, and my defender, O my God; do not delay.
Psa 41:1 For the end, A Psalm of David. Blessed is the man who thinks on the poor and needy; the Lord shall deliver him in an evil day.
Psa 41:2 May the Lord preserve him and keep him alive, and bless him on the earth, and not deliver him into the hands of his enemy.
Psa 41:3 May the Lord help him upon the bed of his pain; You have made all his bed in his sickness.
Psa 41:4 I said, O Lord, have mercy upon me; heal my soul; for I have sinned against You.
Psa 41:5 My enemies have spoken evil against me, saying, When shall he die, and his name perish?
Psa 41:6 And if he came to see me, his heart spoke vainly; he gathered iniquity to himself; he went forth and spoke in like manner.
Psa 41:7 All my enemies whispered against me; against me they devised my hurt.
Psa 41:8 They denounced a wicked word against me, saying, Now that he lies, shall he not rise up again?
Psa 41:9 For even the man of my peace, in whom I trusted, who ate my bread, lifted up his heel against me.
Psa 41:10 But You, O Lord, have compassion upon me, and raise me up, and I shall requite them.
Psa 41:11 By this I know that You have delighted in me, because my enemy shall not rejoice over me.
Psa 41:12 But You helped me because of my innocence, and have established me before You forever.
Psa 41:13 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting. Amen and Amen.
Psa 42:1 For the end, A Psalm of instruction, for the sons of Korah. As the deer earnestly desires the fountains of water, so my soul earnestly longs for You, O God.
Psa 42:2 My soul has thirsted for the living God; when shall I come and appear before God?
Psa 42:3 My tears have been bread to me day and night, while they daily said to me, Where is your God?
Psa 42:4 I remembered these things, and poured out my soul in me, for I will go to the place of Your wondrous tabernacle, even to the house of God, with a voice of exaltation and thanksgiving and of the sound of those who keep festival.
Psa 42:5 Why are you downcast, O my soul? And why do you trouble me? Hope in God; for I will give thanks to Him; He is the salvation of my countenance.
Psa 42:6 O my God, my soul has been troubled within me; therefore will I remember You from the land of the Jordan, and of the Hermonites, from the little hill.
Psa 42:7 Deep calls to deep at the sound of Your waterfalls; all Your billows and Your waves have gone over me.
Psa 42:8 By day the Lord will command His mercy, and manifest it by night; with me is prayer to the God of my life.
Psa 42:9 I will say to God, You are my helper; why have You forgotten me? Why do I mourn, while the enemy oppresses me?
Psa 42:10 While my bones were breaking, they that afflicted me reproached me; while they said to me daily, Where is your God?
Psa 42:11 Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why do you trouble me? Hope in God; for I will give thanks to Him; He is the health of my countenance, and my God.
Psa 43:1 A Psalm of David. Judge me, O God, and plead my cause, against an ungodly nation; deliver me from the unjust and crafty;
Psa 43:2 for You are my strength; why have You cast me off? And why do I go mourning, while the enemy oppresses me?
Psa 43:3 Send forth Your light and Your truth; they have led me, and brought me to Your holy mountain, and to Your tabernacle.
Psa 43:4 And I will go in to the altar of God, to God who gladdens my youth; I will give thanks to You on the harp, O God, my God.
Psa 43:5 Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why do you trouble me? Hope in God; for I will give thanks to Him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.
Psa 44:1 For the end, A Psalm for instruction, for the sons of Korah. O God, we have heard with our ears, our fathers have told us, the deeds which You did in their days, in the days of old.
Psa 44:2 Your hand utterly destroyed the heathen, and You planted them; You afflicted the nations, and cast them out.
Psa 44:3 For they inherited not the land by their own sword, and their own arm did not deliver them; but Your right hand, and Your arm, and the light of Your countenance, because You were well pleased with them.
Psa 44:4 You are indeed my King and my God, who commanded deliverance for Jacob.
Psa 44:5 In You will we push down our enemies, and in Your name will we bring to nought them that rise up against us.
Psa 44:6 For I will not trust in my bow, and my sword shall not save me.
Psa 44:7 For You have saved us from them that afflicted us, and have put to shame them that hated us.
Psa 44:8 In God will we make our boast all the day, and to Your name will we give thanks forever. Pause.
Psa 44:9 But now You have cast off, and put us to shame; and You will not go forth with our hosts.
Psa 44:10 You have turned us back before our enemies; and they that hated us spoiled for themselves.
Psa 44:11 You made us as sheep intended for food; and You scattered us among the nations.
Psa 44:12 You have sold Your people without price, and there was no profit by their exchange.
Psa 44:13 You have made us a reproach to our neighbors, a scorn and derision to them that are round about us.
Psa 44:14 You have made us a proverb among the Gentiles, a shaking of the head among the nations.
Psa 44:15 All the day my shame is before me, and the confusion of my face has covered me,
Psa 44:16 because of the voice of the slanderer and reviler; because of the enemy and avenger.
Psa 44:17 All these things have come upon us; but we have not forgotten You, neither have we dealt unrighteously in Your covenant.
Psa 44:18 And our heart has not gone back; but You have turned aside our paths from Your way.
Psa 44:19 For You have laid us low in a place of affliction, and the shadow of death has covered us.
Psa 44:20 If we have forgotten the name of our God, and if we have spread out our hands to a strange god; shall not God search these things out?
Psa 44:21 for He knows the secrets of the heart.
Psa 44:22 For Your sake we are killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for slaughter.
Psa 44:23 Awake, why do You sleep, O Lord? Arise, and do not cast us off forever.
Psa 44:24 Why do You turn Your face away, and forget our poverty and our affliction?
Psa 44:25 For our soul has been brought down to the dust; our belly has cleaved to the earth.
Psa 44:26 Arise, O Lord, and help us; redeem us for Your name's sake.
Psa 45:1 For the end, for alternate strains by the sons of Korah; for instruction, A song concerning the beloved. My heart has uttered a good matter; I declare my works to the king; my tongue is the pen of a quick writer.
Psa 45:2 You are more beautiful than the sons of men; grace has been shed forth on Your lips; therefore God has blessed You forever.
Psa 45:3 Gird Your sword upon Your thigh, O Mighty One, in Your comeliness, and in Your beauty;
Psa 45:4 and bend Your bow, and prosper, and reign, because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and Your right hand shall guide You wonderfully.
Psa 45:5 Your weapons are sharpened, O Mighty One, (the nations shall fall under You) they are in the heart of the king's enemies.
Psa 45:6 Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; the scepter of Your kingdom is the scepter of righteousness.
Psa 45:7 You have loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, Your God, has anointed You with the oil of gladness beyond Your companions.
Psa 45:8 Myrrh, aloes, and cassia emanate from Your garments, and out of the ivory palaces,
Psa 45:9 with which kings' daughters have gladdened You for Your honor; the queen stood by on Your right hand, clothed in vesture wrought with gold, and arrayed in many colors.
Psa 45:10 Hear, O daughter, and see, and incline your ear; forget also your people, and your father's house.
Psa 45:11 Because the King has desired your beauty; for He is your Lord.
Psa 45:12 And the daughter of Tyre shall adorn Him with gifts; the rich of the people of the land shall supplicate your favor.
Psa 45:13 All her glory is that of the daughter of the king of Heshbon, robed in golden fringed garments,
Psa 45:14 in embroidered clothing; virgins shall be brought to the king after her; her fellows shall be brought to You.
Psa 45:15 They shall be brought with gladness and exaltation; they shall be led into the king's temple.
Psa 45:16 Instead of Your fathers children are born to You; You shall make them princes over all the earth.
Psa 45:17 They shall make mention of Your name from generation to generation; therefore shall the nations give thanks to You forever, even forever and ever.
Psa 46:1 For the end, for the sons of Korah; A Psalm concerning secret things. God is our refuge and strength, a help in the afflictions that have come heavily upon us.
Psa 46:2 Therefore will we not fear when the earth is troubled, and the mountains are removed into the depths of the seas.
Psa 46:3 Their waters have roared and been troubled, the mountains have been troubled by His might. Pause.
Psa 46:4 The flowings of the river gladden the city of God; the Most High has sanctified His tabernacle.
Psa 46:5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved; God shall help her with His countenance.
Psa 46:6 The nations were troubled, the kingdoms tottered; He uttered His voice, the earth shook.
Psa 46:7 The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our helper. Pause.
Psa 46:8 Come, and behold the works of the Lord, what wonders He has achieved on the earth.
Psa 46:9 Putting an end to wars as to the ends of the earth; He will crush the bow, and break in pieces the weapon, and burn the bucklers with fire.
Psa 46:10 Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.
Psa 46:11 The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our helper.
Psa 47:1 For the end, A Psalm for the sons of Korah. Clap your hands, all you nations; shout to God with a voice of exaltation.
Psa 47:2 For the Lord Most High is awesome; He is a great King over all the earth.
Psa 47:3 He has subdued the peoples under us, and the nations under our feet.
Psa 47:4 He has chosen out His inheritance for us, the beauty of Jacob which He loved. Pause.
Psa 47:5 God has gone up with a shout, the Lord with a sound of a trumpet.
Psa 47:6 Sing praises to our God, sing praises; sing praises to our King, sing praises.
Psa 47:7 For God is King of all the earth; sing praises with understanding.
Psa 47:8 God reigns over the nations; God sits upon the throne of His holiness.
Psa 47:9 The rulers of the people are assembled with the God of Abraham; for God's mighty ones of the earth have been greatly exalted.
Psa 48:1 A Psalm of praise for the sons of Korah on the second day of the week. Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in His holy mountain.
Psa 48:2 The city of the great King is well planted on the mountains of Zion, with the joy of the whole earth, on the sides of the north.
Psa 48:3 God is known in her palaces, when He undertakes to help her.
Psa 48:4 For behold, the kings of the earth were assembled, they came together.
Psa 48:5 They saw, and so they wondered; they were troubled, they were moved.
Psa 48:6 Trembling took hold of them; there were the pangs as of a woman in travail.
Psa 48:7 You will break the ships of Tarshish with a vehement wind.
Psa 48:8 As we have heard, so have we also seen, in the city of the Lord of hosts, in the city of our God; God has founded it forever. Pause.
Psa 48:9 We have thought of Your mercy, O God, in the midst of Your people.
Psa 48:10 According to Your name, O God, so is also Your praise to the ends of the earth; Your right hand is full of righteousness.
Psa 48:11 Let Mount Zion rejoice, let the daughters of Judah rejoice, because of Your judgments, O Lord.
Psa 48:12 Go round about Zion, and encompass her; count her towers.
Psa 48:13 Mark well her strength, and observe her palaces; that you may tell the next generation.
Psa 48:14 For this is our God forever and ever; He will be our guide forevermore.
Psa 49:1 For the end, A Psalm for the sons of Korah. Hear these words, all you nations, give ear, all you that dwell upon the earth;
Psa 49:2 both the sons of mean men, and sons of great men; the rich and poor man together.
Psa 49:3 My mouth shall speak of wisdom, and the meditation of my heart shall bring forth understanding.
Psa 49:4 I will incline my ear to a parable; I will open my riddle on the harp.
Psa 49:5 Why should I fear in the evil day? The iniquity of my heel shall surround me.
Psa 49:6 They that trust in their strength, and boast themselves in the multitude of their wealth
Psa 49:7 a brother does not redeem, shall a man redeem? He shall not give to God a ransom for himself,
Psa 49:8 or the price for the redemption of his soul, though he labor forever,
Psa 49:9 and live to the end, so that he should not see corruption.
Psa 49:10 When he shall see wise men dying, the fool and the senseless one shall perish together; and they shall leave their wealth to strangers.
Psa 49:11 And their tombs are their houses forever, even their tabernacles to all generations; they have called their lands after their own names.
Psa 49:12 And man being in honor, understands not; he is compared to the senseless cattle, and is likened unto them.
Psa 49:13 This their way is an offense to them; yet afterwards men will commend their sayings. Pause.
Psa 49:14 They have laid them as sheep in Hades; death shall feed on them; and the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning, and their help shall fail in Hades from their glory.
Psa 49:15 But God shall deliver my soul from the power of Hades, when He shall receive me. Pause.
Psa 49:16 Fear not when a man is enriched, and when the glory of his house is increased.
Psa 49:17 For he shall take nothing when he dies; neither shall his glory descend with him.
Psa 49:18 For his soul shall be blessed in his life; he shall give thanks to you when you do well to him.
Psa 49:19 Yet he shall go in to the generation of his fathers; he shall never see light.
Psa 49:20 Man that is in honor, understands not; he is compared to the senseless cattle, and is likened unto them.
Psa 50:1 A Psalm of Asaph. The God of gods, the Lord, has spoken, and called the earth from the rising of the sun to its going down.
Psa 50:2 Out of Zion comes the excellence of His beauty.
Psa 50:3 God, our God, shall come manifestly, and shall not keep silent; a fire shall be kindled before Him, and round about Him there shall be a very great tempest.
Psa 50:4 He shall summon the heaven above, and the earth, that He may judge His people.
Psa 50:5 Assemble His saints to Him, those that have engaged in a covenant with Him upon sacrifices.
Psa 50:6 And the heavens shall declare His righteousness; for God is Judge. Pause.
Psa 50:7 Hear, My people, and I will speak to you, O Israel; and I will testify to you; I am God, your God.
Psa 50:8 I will not reprove you on account of your sacrifices; for your whole burnt offerings are before Me continually.
Psa 50:9 I will take no bulls out of your house, nor male goats out of your flocks.
Psa 50:10 For all the wild beasts of the thicket are Mine, the cattle on the mountains, and oxen.
Psa 50:11 I know all the birds of the sky; and the beauty of the field is Mine.
Psa 50:12 If I should be hungry, I will not tell you; for the world is Mine, and all its fullness.
Psa 50:13 Will I eat the flesh of bulls, or drink the blood of goats?
Psa 50:14 Offer to God the sacrifice of praise; and pay your vows to the Most High.
Psa 50:15 And call upon Me in the day of affliction; and I shall deliver you, and you shall glorify Me. Pause.
Psa 50:16 But to the sinner God has said, Why do you declare My ordinances, and take up My covenant in your mouth?
Psa 50:17 Seeing you have hated instruction, and have cast My words behind you.
Psa 50:18 If you saw a thief, you ran along with him, and have cast in your lot with adulterers.
Psa 50:19 Your mouth has multiplied wickedness, and your tongue has framed deceit.
Psa 50:20 You sat and spoke against your brother, and scandalized your mother's son.
Psa 50:21 These things you did, and I kept silent; you thought wickedly that I should be like you, but I will reprove you, and set your offenses before you.
Psa 50:22 Now consider these things, all you that forget God, lest He tear you, and there be none to deliver.
Psa 50:23 The sacrifice of praise will glorify Me; and that is the way in which I will show to him the salvation of God.
Psa 51:1 For the end, A Psalm of David, when Nathan the prophet came to him, when he had gone in to Bathsheba. Have mercy upon me, O God, according to Your great mercy; and according to the multitude of Your compassions, blot out my transgression.
Psa 51:2 Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
Psa 51:3 For I am conscious of my iniquity; and my sin is continually before me.
Psa 51:4 Against You alone have I sinned, and done evil before You; that You might be justified in Your words, and might overcome when You are judged.
Psa 51:5 For behold, I was conceived in iniquities, and in sins did my mother conceive me.
Psa 51:6 For behold, You love truth; You have manifested to me the secret and hidden things of Your wisdom.
Psa 51:7 You shall sprinkle me with hyssop, and I shall be purified; You shall wash me, and I shall be made whiter than snow.
Psa 51:8 You shall cause me to hear gladness and joy; my afflicted bones shall rejoice.
Psa 51:9 Turn away Your face from my sins, and blot out all my iniquities.
Psa 51:10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a steadfast spirit in my inward parts.
Psa 51:11 Cast me not away from Your presence; and remove not Your Holy Spirit from me.
Psa 51:12 Restore to me the joy of Your salvation; establish me with Your directing Spirit.
Psa 51:13 Then will I teach transgressors Your ways; and ungodly men shall turn to You.
Psa 51:14 Deliver me from blood-guiltiness, O God, the God of my salvation; and my tongue shall joyfully declare Your righteousness.
Psa 51:15 O Lord, You shall open my lips; and my mouth shall declare Your praise.
Psa 51:16 For if You desired sacrifice, I would have given it; You will not take pleasure in whole burnt offerings.
Psa 51:17 Sacrifice to God is a broken spirit; a broken and humbled heart God will not despise.
Psa 51:18 Do good, O Lord, to Zion in Your good pleasure; and let the walls of Jerusalem be built.
Psa 51:19 Then shall You be pleased with a sacrifice of righteousness, offering, and whole burnt sacrifices; then shall they offer calves upon Your altar.
Psa 52:1 For the end, A Psalm of instruction by David, when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, and said to him, David has gone to the house of Abimelech. Why do you, O mighty man, boast of iniquity in your mischief? All the day
Psa 52:2 your tongue has devised unrighteousness; like a sharpened razor you have worked deceit.
Psa 52:3 You have loved wickedness more than goodness; unrighteousness better than to speak righteousness. Pause.
Psa 52:4 You have loved all words of destruction, and a deceitful tongue.
Psa 52:5 Therefore may God destroy you forever, may He pluck you up and utterly remove you from your dwelling, and your root from the land of the living. Pause.
Psa 52:6 And the righteous shall see and fear, and shall laugh at him, and say,
Psa 52:7 Behold, the man who made not God his help; but trusted in the abundance of his wealth, and strengthened himself in his vanity.
Psa 52:8 But I am as a fruitful olive in the house of God; I have trusted in the mercy of God forever, even forevermore.
Psa 52:9 I will give thanks to You forever, for You have done it; and I will wait on Your name; for it is good before the saints.
Psa 53:1 For the end, A Psalm of David upon Mahalath, of instruction. The fool has said in his heart, There is no God. They have corrupted themselves, and have become abominable in iniquities; there is none that does good.
Psa 53:2 God looked down from heaven upon the sons of men, to see if there were any that understood, or sought after God.
Psa 53:3 They have all gone out of the way, they have together become unprofitable; there is none that does good, there is not even one.
Psa 53:4 Will none of the workers of iniquity know, who devour My people as they would eat bread? They have not called upon God. There were they greatly afraid, where there was no fear;
Psa 53:5 for God has scattered the bones of the men-pleasers; they were ashamed, for God has despised them.
Psa 53:6 Who will bring the salvation of Israel out of Zion? When the Lord turns the captivity of His people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
Psa 54:1 For the end, among Hymns of instruction by David, when the Ziphites came and said to Saul, Lo, is not David hiding with us? Save me, O God, by Your name, and judge me by Your might.
Psa 54:2 O God, hear my prayer; hearken to the words of my mouth.
Psa 54:3 For strangers have risen up against me, and mighty men have sought my life; they have not set God before them. Pause.
Psa 54:4 Behold, God assists me; and the Lord is the helper of my soul.
Psa 54:5 He shall return evil to my enemies; utterly destroy them in Your truth.
Psa 54:6 I will willingly sacrifice to You; I will give thanks to Your name, O Lord; for it is good.
Psa 54:7 For You have delivered me out of all my afflictions, and my eye has seen its desire upon my enemies.
Psa 55:1 For the end, among Hymns of instruction by David. Hearken, O God, to my prayer; and disregard not my supplication.
Psa 55:2 Attend to me, and hearken to me; I was grieved in my meditation, and troubled;
Psa 55:3 because of the voice of the enemy, and because of the oppression of the sinner; for they brought iniquity against me, and were wrathfully angry with me.
Psa 55:4 My heart was troubled within me; and the fear of death fell upon me.
Psa 55:5 Fear and trembling came upon me, and darkness covered me.
Psa 55:6 And I said, O, that I had wings as those of a dove! Then would I fly away, and be at rest.
Psa 55:7 Lo! I have fled afar off, and lodged in the wilderness. Pause.
Psa 55:8 I waited for Him that would deliver me from my distressed spirit, and from the tempest.
Psa 55:9 Destroy, O LORD, and divide their tongues, for I have seen iniquity and gainsaying in the city.
Psa 55:10 Day and night he shall go round about it upon its walls; iniquity and sorrow and unrighteousness are in the midst of it;
Psa 55:11 and usury and craft have not failed from its streets.
Psa 55:12 For if an enemy had reproached me, I would have endured it; and if one who hated me had spoken vauntingly against me, I would have hid myself from him.
Psa 55:13 But you, O like-minded man, my guide, and my acquaintance,
Psa 55:14 who in companionship with me sweetened our food; we walked in the house of God in concord.
Psa 55:15 Let death come upon them, and let them go down alive into Hades, for iniquity is in their dwellings, in the midst of them.
Psa 55:16 I cried to God, and the Lord hearkened to me.
Psa 55:17 Evening and morning and at noon I will declare and make known my needs; and He shall hear my voice.
Psa 55:18 He shall deliver my soul in peace from them that draw near to me; for they were with me in many cases.
Psa 55:19 God shall hear, and bring them low, even He that has existed from eternity. Pause. For they suffer no recourse, and therefore they have not feared God.
Psa 55:20 He has reached forth his hand for retribution; they have profaned His covenant.
Psa 55:21 They were scattered at the anger of His countenance, and his heart drew near to them. His words were smoother than oil, yet they are darts.
Psa 55:22 Cast your cares upon the Lord, and He shall sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved.
Psa 55:23 But You, O God, shall bring them down to the pit of destruction; bloody and crafty men shall not live out half their days; but I will hope in You, O Lord.
Psa 56:1 For the end, concerning the people that were removed from the sanctuary, by David for a memorial, when the Philistines caught him in Gath. Have mercy upon me, O God; for man has trodden me down; all the day long his warring has afflicted me.
Psa 56:2 My enemies have trodden me down all the day from the dawning of the day; for there are many warring against me.
Psa 56:3 They shall be afraid, but I will trust in You.
Psa 56:4 In God (I will praise His word); all the day long have I hoped in God; I will not fear; what shall man do to me?
Psa 56:5 All the day long they have abominated my words; all their devices are against me for evil.
Psa 56:6 They will dwell near and hide themselves; they will watch my steps, accordingly as I have waited patiently in my soul.
Psa 56:7 You will by no means save them; You will bring down the people in wrath.
Psa 56:8 O God, I have declared my life to You; You have set my tears before You, even according to Your promise.
Psa 56:9 My enemies shall be turned back, in the day that I shall call upon You; behold, I know that You are my God.
Psa 56:10 In God, (I will praise His word); in the Lord (I will praise His word).
Psa 56:11 I have hoped in God; I will not be afraid; what shall man do to me?
Psa 56:12 The vows of Your praise, O God, which I will pay, are upon me.
Psa 56:13 For You have delivered my soul from death, and my feet from sliding, that I should be well-pleasing before God in the land of the living.
Psa 57:1 For the end. Destroy not; by David, for a memorial, when he fled from the presence of Saul, to the cave. Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy on me; for my soul has trusted in You; and in the shadow of Your wings will I hope, until the iniquity has passed away.
Psa 57:2 I will cry to God Most High; the God who has benefited me. Pause.
Psa 57:3 He sent from heaven and saved me; He reproached them that trampled on me; God has sent forth His mercy and His truth;
Psa 57:4 and He has delivered my soul from the midst of the lion's whelps; I lay down to sleep, though troubled. As for the sons of men, their teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.
Psa 57:5 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; and Your glory above all the earth.
Psa 57:6 They have prepared snares for my feet, and have bowed down my soul; they have dug a pit before my face, and fallen into it themselves. Pause.
Psa 57:7 My heart, O God, is ready, my heart is ready; I will sing; yes, I will sing psalms.
Psa 57:8 Awake, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp; I will awake early.
Psa 57:9 O Lord, I will give thanks to You among the nations; I will sing to You among the Gentiles.
Psa 57:10 For Your mercy has been magnified, even to the heavens, and Your truth to the clouds.
Psa 57:11 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; and Your glory above all the earth.
Psa 58:1 For the end. Destroy not; by David, for a memorial. If you do indeed speak righteousness, then do you judge rightly, you sons of men?
Psa 58:2 For you work iniquities in your hearts in the earth; your hands plot unrighteousness.
Psa 58:3 Sinners have gone astray from the womb; they go astray from the belly; they speak lies.
Psa 58:4 Their venom is like that of a serpent; as that of a deaf asp, and that stops her ears;
Psa 58:5 which will not hear the voice of charmers, nor heed the charm prepared skillfully by the wise.
Psa 58:6 God has crushed their teeth in their mouth; God has broken the teeth of the lions.
Psa 58:7 They shall utterly pass away like water running through; he shall bend his bow till they shall fail.
Psa 58:8 They shall be destroyed as melted wax; the fire has fallen, and they have not seen the sun.
Psa 58:9 Before your pots you can feel the white thorn, He shall swallow you up as living, as in His wrath.
Psa 58:10 The righteous shall rejoice when he sees the vengeance of the ungodly; he shall wash his hands in the blood of the sinner.
Psa 58:11 And a man shall say, Verily then there is a reward for the righteous; verily there is a God that judges them in the earth.
Psa 59:1 For the end. Destroy not; by David for a memorial, when Saul sent, and watched his house to kill him. Deliver me from my enemies, O God; and ransom me from those that rise up against me.
Psa 59:2 Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from bloody men.
Psa 59:3 For behold, they have hunted after my soul; violent men have set upon me; neither is it my iniquity, nor my sin, O Lord.
Psa 59:4 Without iniquity I ran and directed my course aright; awake to help me, and behold.
Psa 59:5 And You, Lord God of hosts, the God of Israel, draw near to visit all the heathen; do not pity any that work iniquity. Pause.
Psa 59:6 They shall return at evening, and hunger like a dog, and go round about the city.
Psa 59:7 Behold, they shall utter a voice with their mouth, and a sword is in their lips; for who, they say, has heard?
Psa 59:8 But You, O Lord, shall laugh them to scorn; You will utterly set at nought all the heathen.
Psa 59:9 I will keep my strength, looking to You; for You, O God, are my helper.
Psa 59:10 As for my God, His mercy shall go before me; my God will show me vengeance on my enemies.
Psa 59:11 Slay them not, lest they forget Your law; scatter them by Your power; and bring them down, O Lord, my defender.
Psa 59:12 For the sin of their mouth, and the word of their lips, let them be even taken in their pride.
Psa 59:13 And for their cursing and falsehood shall utter destruction be denounced; they shall fall by the wrath of utter destruction, and shall not be; so shall they know that the God of Jacob is Lord to the ends of the earth. Pause.
Psa 59:14 They shall return at evening, and be hungry as a dog, and go round about the city.
Psa 59:15 They shall be scattered here and there for food; and if they are not satisfied, they shall even murmur.
Psa 59:16 But I will sing to Your strength, and in the morning will I rejoice in Your mercy; for You have been my supporter, and my refuge in the day of my affliction.
Psa 59:17 You are my helper; to You, my God, shall I sing; You are my supporter, O my God, and my mercy.
Psa 60:1 For the end, for them that shall yet be changed; for an inscription by David for instruction, when he had burned Mesopotamia of Syria, and Syria of Zobah; and Joab had returned and struck twelve thousand in the Valley of Salt. O God, You have rejected and destroyed us; You have been angry, yet You have pitied us.
Psa 60:2 You have shaken the earth, and troubled it; heal its breaches, for it has been shaken.
Psa 60:3 You have shown Your people hard things; You have made us drink the wine of astonishment.
Psa 60:4 You have given a token to them that fear You, that they might flee from the bow. Pause.
Psa 60:5 That Your beloved ones may be delivered; save with Your right hand, and hear me.
Psa 60:6 God has spoken in His holiness; I will rejoice, and divide Shechem, and measure out the Valley of Tents.
Psa 60:7 Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine; and Ephraim is the strength of My head;
Psa 60:8 Judah is My king; Moab is the caldron of My hope; over Edom will I stretch out My shoe; the Philistines have been subjected to Me.
Psa 60:9 Who will lead me into the fortified city? Who will guide me as far as Edom?
Psa 60:10 Will not You, O God, who has cast us off? And will not You, O God, go forth with our forces?
Psa 60:11 Give us help from trouble; for vain is the deliverance of man.
Psa 60:12 In God will we do valiantly; and He shall bring to nought them that harass us.
Psa 61:1 For the end, among the Hymns of David. O God, hearken to my petition; attend to my prayer.
Psa 61:2 From the ends of the earth have I cried to You, when my heart was in trouble; You lifted me up on a rock; You guided me;
Psa 61:3 because You were my hope, a tower of strength from the face of the enemy.
Psa 61:4 I will dwell in Your tabernacle forever; I will shelter myself under the shadow of Your wings. Pause.
Psa 61:5 For You, O God, have heard my prayers; You have given an inheritance to them that fear Your name.
Psa 61:6 You shall add days to the days of the king; You shall lengthen his years to all generations.
Psa 61:7 He shall endure forever before God. Which of them shall seek out His mercy and truth?
Psa 61:8 So shall I sing to Your name forever and ever, that I may daily perform my vows.
Psa 62:1 For the end, A Psalm of David to Jeduthun. Shall not my soul be subjected to God? For from Him is my salvation.
Psa 62:2 For He is my God, and my savior; my helper, I shall not be greatly moved.
Psa 62:3 How long will you assault a man? You are all slaughtering as with a bowed wall and a broken hedge.
Psa 62:4 They only took counsel to set at nought my honor. I ran in thirst; with their mouth they blessed, but with their heart they cursed. Pause.
Psa 62:5 Nevertheless, my soul is subjected to God; for of Him is my patient hope.
Psa 62:6 For He is my God and my Savior; my helper, I shall not be moved.
Psa 62:7 In God is my salvation and my glory; He is the God of my help, and my hope is in God.
Psa 62:8 Hope in Him, all you congregation of the people; pour out your hearts before Him, for God is our helper. Pause.
Psa 62:9 But the sons of men are vain; the sons of men are false, so as to be deceitful in the balances; they are all alike, formed out of vanity.
Psa 62:10 Trust not in unrighteousness, and lust not after robberies. If wealth should flow in, set not your heart upon it.
Psa 62:11 God has spoken once, and I have heard these two things, that power is of God;
Psa 62:12 and mercy is Yours, O Lord; for You will recompense everyone according to his works.
Psa 63:1 A Psalm of David, when he was in the Wilderness of Edom. O God, my God, I cry to You early; my soul has thirsted for You: how often has my flesh longed after You, in a barren and trackless and dry land!
Psa 63:2 Thus have I appeared before You in the sanctuary, that I might see Your power and Your glory.
Psa 63:3 For Your mercy is better than life: my lips shall praise You.
Psa 63:4 Thus will I bless You during my life: I will lift up my hands in Your name.
Psa 63:5 Let my soul be filled as with marrow and fatness; and my joyful lips shall praise Your name.
Psa 63:6 For I have remembered You on my bed; in the early seasons I have meditated on You.
Psa 63:7 For You have been my helper, and in the shelter of Your wings will I rejoice.
Psa 63:8 My soul has kept very close behind You: Your right hand has upheld me.
Psa 63:9 But they vainly sought after my soul; they shall go into the lowest parts of the earth.
Psa 63:10 They shall be delivered up to the power of the sword; they shall be portions for jackals.
Psa 63:11 But the king shall rejoice in God; everyone that swears by Him shall be praised; for the mouth of them that speak unjust things has been stopped.
Psa 64:1 For the end, A Psalm of David. Hear my prayer, O God, when I make my petition to You; deliver my soul from fear of the enemy.
Psa 64:2 You have sheltered me from the conspiracy of them that do wickedly; from the multitude of them that work iniquity;
Psa 64:3 who have sharpened their tongues as a sword; they have bent their bow maliciously;
Psa 64:4 to shoot in secret at the blameless; they will shoot him suddenly, and will not fear.
Psa 64:5 They have set up for themselves an evil matter, they have given counsel to hide snares; they have said, Who shall see them?
Psa 64:6 They have searched out iniquity; they have wearied themselves with searching diligently, a man shall approach and the heart is deep,
Psa 64:7 and God shall be exalted, their wounds were caused by the weapon of the foolish children,
Psa 64:8 and their tongues have set him at nought, all that saw them were troubled;
Psa 64:9 and every man was alarmed, and they related the works of God, and understood His deeds.
Psa 64:10 The righteous shall rejoice in the Lord, and hope in Him, and all the upright in heart shall be praised.
Psa 65:1 For the end, A Psalm and Song of David. Praise becomes You, O God, in Zion; and to You shall the vow be performed.
Psa 65:2 Hear my prayer; to You all flesh shall come.
Psa 65:3 The words of transgressors have overpowered us; but You pardon our sins.
Psa 65:4 Blessed is he whom You have chosen and adopted; he shall dwell in Your courts; we shall be filled with the good things of Your house; Your temple is holy.
Psa 65:5 You are wonderful in righteousness. Hearken to us, O God our Savior; the hope of all the ends of the earth, and of them that are on the sea afar off;
Psa 65:6 who establish the mountains in Your strength, being girded about with power;
Psa 65:7 who trouble the depth of the sea, the sounds of its waves.
Psa 65:8 The nations shall be troubled, and they that inhabit the ends of the earth shall be afraid of the signs; You will cause the outgoings of morning and evening to rejoice.
Psa 65:9 You have visited the earth, and saturated it; You have abundantly enriched it. The river of God is filled with water; You have prepared their food, for thus is the preparation of it.
Psa 65:10 Saturate her furrows, multiply her fruits; the crop springing up shall rejoice in its drops.
Psa 65:11 You will bless the crown of the year because of Your goodness; and Your plains shall be filled with fatness.
Psa 65:12 The mountains of the wilderness shall be enriched; and the hills shall gird themselves with joy.
Psa 65:13 The rams of the flock are clothed with wool, and the valleys shall abound in grain; they shall cry aloud; yea, they shall sing hymns.

Psa 66:2 O sing praises to His name; give glory to His praise.
Psa 66:3 Say unto God, How awesome are Your works! Through the greatness of Your power Your enemies shall submit themselves to You.
Psa 66:4 Let all the earth worship You, and sing to You; let them sing to Your name. Pause.
Psa 66:5 Come and behold the works of God; He is mighty in His counsels beyond the children of men,
Psa 66:6 who turns the sea into dry land; they shall go through the river on foot; there shall we rejoice in Him,
Psa 66:7 who by His power is Lord over the ages, His eyes look upon the nations; let not them that provoke Him be exalted in themselves. Pause.
Psa 66:8 Bless our God, you Gentiles, and make the voice of his praise to be heard;
Psa 66:9 who quickens my soul in life, and does not allow my feet to be moved.
Psa 66:10 For You, O God, have proved us; You have tried us with fire as silver is tried.
Psa 66:11 You have brought us into the snare; You have laid afflictions on our back.
Psa 66:12 You have caused men to ride over our heads; we went through the fire and water; but You brought us out into a place of refreshment.
Psa 66:13 I will go into Your house with whole burnt offerings; I will pay You my vows,
Psa 66:14 which my lips framed, and my mouth uttered in my affliction.
Psa 66:15 I will offer to You whole burnt sacrifices full of marrow, with incense and rams; I will sacrifice to You oxen with goats. Pause.
Psa 66:16 Come and hear, and I will tell, all You that fear God, how great things He has done for my soul.
Psa 66:17 I cried to Him with my mouth, and exalted Him with my tongue.
Psa 66:18 If I have regarded iniquity in my heart, let not the Lord hearken to me.
Psa 66:19 Therefore God has hearkened to me; He has attended to the voice of my prayer.
Psa 66:20 Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer, nor His mercy from me.
Psa 67:1 For the end, A Psalm of David among the Hymns. God be merciful to us, and bless us; and cause His face to shine upon us. Pause.
Psa 67:2 That men may know Your way on the earth, Your salvation among all nations.
Psa 67:3 Let the nations, O God, give thanks to You; let all the nations give thanks to You.
Psa 67:4 Let the nations rejoice and exalt, for You shall judge the people in equity, and shall guide the nations on the earth. Pause.
Psa 67:5 Let the people, O God, give thanks to You; let all the people give thanks to You.
Psa 67:6 The earth has yielded her fruit; let God, our God, bless us.
Psa 67:7 Let God bless us, and let all the ends of the earth fear Him.
Psa 68:1 For the end, A Psalm of a Song by David. Let God arise, and let His enemies be scattered; and let them that hate Him flee from before Him.

Psa 68:3 But let the righteous rejoice; let them exalt before God: let them be delighted with joy.
Psa 68:4 Sing to God, sing praises to His name: make a way for Him that rides upon the west (the Lord is His name) and rejoice before Him. They shall be troubled before the face of Him,
Psa 68:5 who is the Father of the orphans, and Judge of the widows; such is God in His holy place.
Psa 68:6 God settles the solitary in a house; leading forth prisoners mightily, also them that act provokingly, even them that dwell in tombs.
Psa 68:7 O God, when You went forth before Your people, when You went through the wilderness; Pause:
Psa 68:8 the earth quaked; yea, the heavens dropped water at the presence of the God of Sinai, at the presence of the God of Israel.
Psa 68:9 O God, You will grant to Your inheritance a gracious rain; for it was weary, but You have refreshed it.
Psa 68:10 Your creatures dwell in it; You have in Your goodness prepared for the poor.
Psa 68:11 The Lord God will give a word to them that preach it in a great company.
Psa 68:12 The king of the forces of the beloved will even grant them for the beauty of the house to divide the spoils.
Psa 68:13 Even if you should lie among the lots, you shall have the wings of a dove covered with silver, and her breast with yellow gold.
Psa 68:14 When the heavenly One scatters kings upon it, they shall be made snow-white in Zalmon.
Psa 68:15 The mountain of God is a rich mountain; a swelling mountain, a rich mountain.
Psa 68:16 Why do you conceive evil, you swelling mountains? This is the mountain which God has delighted to dwell in; yea, the Lord will dwell in it forever.
Psa 68:17 The chariots of God are ten thousand fold, thousands of rejoicing ones; the Lord is among them, in Sinai, in the holy place.
Psa 68:18 You have ascended on high, You have led captivity captive, You have received gifts among men, yea, for they were rebellious, that You might dwell among them.
Psa 68:19 Blessed be the Lord God, blessed be the Lord daily; and the God of our salvation shall prosper us. Pause.
