021:001 The king shall joy in thy strength, O LORD; and in thy salvation how greatly shall he rejoice! 021:002 Thou hast given him his heart's desire, and hast not withholden the request of his lips. Selah. 021:003 For thou preventest him with the blessings of goodness: thou settest a crown of pure gold on his head. 021:004 He asked life of thee, and thou gavest it him, even length of days for ever and ever. 021:005 His glory is great in thy salvation: honour and majesty hast thou laid upon him. 021:006 For thou hast made him most blessed for ever: thou hast made him exceeding glad with thy countenance. 021:007 For the king trusteth in the LORD, and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved. 021:008 Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies: thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee. 021:009 Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven in the time of thine anger: the LORD shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them. 021:010 Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men. 021:011 For they intended evil against thee: they imagined a mischievous device, which they are not able to perform. 021:012 Therefore shalt thou make them turn their back, when thou shalt make ready thine arrows upon thy strings against the face of them. 021:013 Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength: so will we sing and praise thy power.
022:001 My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring? 022:002 O my God, I cry in the day time, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent. 022:003 But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel. 022:004 Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them. 022:005 They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded. 022:006 But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people. 022:007 All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying, 022:008 He trusted on the LORD that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him. 022:009 But thou art he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me hope when I was upon my mother's breasts. 022:010 I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother's belly. 022:011 Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help. 022:012 Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round. 022:013 They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion. 022:014 I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels. 022:015 My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death. 022:016 For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet. 022:017 I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me. 022:018 They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture. 022:019 But be not thou far from me, O LORD: O my strength, haste thee to help me. 022:020 Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog. 022:021 Save me from the lion's mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns. 022:022 I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee. 022:023 Ye that fear the LORD, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel. 022:024 For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard. 022:025 My praise shall be of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him. 022:026 The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the LORD that seek him: your heart shall live for ever. 022:027 All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee. 022:028 For the kingdom is the LORD's: and he is the governor among the nations. 022:029 All they that be fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul. 022:030 A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation. 022:031 They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done this.
023:001 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. 023:002 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. 023:003 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. 023:004 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. 023:005 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. 023:006 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
024:001 The earth is the LORD's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. 024:002 For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods. 024:003 Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place? 024:004 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. 024:005 He shall receive the blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation. 024:006 This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. Selah. 024:007 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in. 024:008 Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle. 024:009 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in. 024:010 Who is this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, he is the King of glory. Selah.
025:001 Unto thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul. 025:002 O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me. 025:003 Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause. 025:004 Shew me thy ways, O LORD; teach me thy paths. 025:005 Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day. 025:006 Remember, O LORD, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they have been ever of old. 025:007 Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to thy mercy remember thou me for thy goodness' sake, O LORD. 025:008 Good and upright is the LORD: therefore will he teach sinners in the way. 025:009 The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way. 025:010 All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies. 025:011 For thy name's sake, O LORD, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great. 025:012 What man is he that feareth the LORD? him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose. 025:013 His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth. 025:014 The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant. 025:015 Mine eyes are ever toward the LORD; for he shall pluck my feet out of the net. 025:016 Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; for I am desolate and afflicted. 025:017 The troubles of my heart are enlarged: O bring thou me out of my distresses. 025:018 Look upon mine affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins. 025:019 Consider mine enemies; for they are many; and they hate me with cruel hatred. 025:020 O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in thee. 025:021 Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee. 025:022 Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.
026:001 Judge me, O LORD; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; therefore I shall not slide. 026:002 Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart. 026:003 For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth. 026:004 I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers. 026:005 I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked. 026:006 I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O LORD: 026:007 That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy wondrous works. 026:008 LORD, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth. 026:009 Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men: 026:010 In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes. 026:011 But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful unto me. 026:012 My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the LORD.
027:001 The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? 027:002 When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell. 027:003 Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident. 027:004 One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple. 027:005 For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock. 027:006 And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD. 027:007 Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me. 027:008 When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek. 027:009 Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation. 027:010 When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up. 027:011 Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies. 027:012 Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty. 027:013 I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. 027:014 Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.
028:001 Unto thee will I cry, O LORD my rock; be not silent to me: lest, if thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down into the pit. 028:002 Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle. 028:003 Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, which speak peace to their neighbours, but mischief is in their hearts. 028:004 Give them according to their deeds, and according to the wickedness of their endeavours: give them after the work of their hands; render to them their desert. 028:005 Because they regard not the works of the LORD, nor the operation of his hands, he shall destroy them, and not build them up. 028:006 Blessed be the LORD, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications. 028:007 The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him. 028:008 The LORD is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed. 028:009 Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: feed them also, and lift them up for ever.
029:001 Give unto the LORD, O ye mighty, give unto the LORD glory and strength. 029:002 Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness. 029:003 The voice of the LORD is upon the waters: the God of glory thundereth: the LORD is upon many waters. 029:004 The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is full of majesty. 029:005 The voice of the LORD breaketh the cedars; yea, the LORD breaketh the cedars of Lebanon. 029:006 He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn. 029:007 The voice of the LORD divideth the flames of fire. 029:008 The voice of the LORD shaketh the wilderness; the LORD shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh. 029:009 The voice of the LORD maketh the hinds to calve, and discovereth the forests: and in his temple doth every one speak of is glory. 029:010 The LORD sitteth upon the flood; yea, the LORD sitteth King for ever. 029:011 The LORD will give strength unto his people; the LORD will bless his people with peace.
030:001 I will extol thee, O LORD; for thou hast lifted me up, and hast not made my foes to rejoice over me. 030:002 O LORD my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me. 030:003 O LORD, thou hast brought up my soul from the grave: thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit. 030:004 Sing unto the LORD, O ye saints of his, and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness. 030:005 For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning. 030:006 And in my prosperity I said, I shall never be moved. 030:007 LORD, by thy favour thou hast made my mountain to stand strong: thou didst hide thy face, and I was troubled. 030:008 I cried to thee, O LORD; and unto the LORD I made supplication. 030:009 What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth? 030:010 Hear, O LORD, and have mercy upon me: LORD, be thou my helper. 030:011 Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness; 030:012 To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.
031:001 In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness. 031:002 Bow down thine ear to me; deliver me speedily: be thou my strong rock, for an house of defence to save me. 031:003 For thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore for thy name's sake lead me, and guide me. 031:004 Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me: for thou art my strength. 031:005 Into thine hand I commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O LORD God of truth. 031:006 I have hated them that regard lying vanities: but I trust in the LORD. 031:007 I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy: for thou hast considered my trouble; thou hast known my soul in adversities; 031:008 And hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a large room. 031:009 Have mercy upon me, O LORD, for I am in trouble: mine eye is consumed with grief, yea, my soul and my belly. 031:010 For my life is spent with grief, and my years with sighing: my strength faileth because of mine iniquity, and my bones are consumed. 031:011 I was a reproach among all mine enemies, but especially among my neighbours, and a fear to mine acquaintance: they that did see me without fled from me. 031:012 I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel. 031:013 For I have heard the slander of many: fear was on every side: while they took counsel together against me, they devised to take away my life. 031:014 But I trusted in thee, O LORD: I said, Thou art my God. 031:015 My times are in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me. 031:016 Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: save me for thy mercies' sake. 031:017 Let me not be ashamed, O LORD; for I have called upon thee: let the wicked be ashamed, and let them be silent in the grave. 031:018 Let the lying lips be put to silence; which speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous. 031:019 Oh how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee; which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men! 031:020 Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man: thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues. 031:021 Blessed be the LORD: for he hath shewed me his marvellous kindness in a strong city. 031:022 For I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes: nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee. 031:023 O love the LORD, all ye his saints: for the LORD preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer. 031:024 Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD.
032:001 Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. 032:002 Blessed is the man unto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile. 032:003 When I kept silence, my bones waxed old through my roaring all the day long. 032:004 For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: my moisture is turned into the drought of summer. Selah. 032:005 I acknowledge my sin unto thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid. I said, I will confess my transgressions unto the LORD; and thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. Selah. 032:006 For this shall every one that is godly pray unto thee in a time when thou mayest be found: surely in the floods of great waters they shall not come nigh unto him. 032:007 Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah. 032:008 I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye. 032:009 Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, lest they come near unto thee. 032:010 Many sorrows shall be to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the LORD, mercy shall compass him about. 032:011 Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart.
033:001 Rejoice in the LORD, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright. 033:002 Praise the LORD with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery and an instrument of ten strings. 033:003 Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise. 033:004 For the word of the LORD is right; and all his works are done in truth. 033:005 He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of the LORD. 033:006 By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth. 033:007 He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up the depth in storehouses. 033:008 Let all the earth fear the LORD: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him. 033:009 For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast. 033:010 The LORD bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect. 033:011 The counsel of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations. 033:012 Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance. 033:013 The LORD looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men. 033:014 From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth. 033:015 He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works. 033:016 There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength. 033:017 An horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great strength. 033:018 Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy; 033:019 To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine. 033:020 Our soul waiteth for the LORD: he is our help and our shield. 033:021 For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his holy name. 033:022 Let thy mercy, O LORD, be upon us, according as we hope in thee.
034:001 I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth. 034:002 My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad. 034:003 O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together. 034:004 I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. 034:005 They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed. 034:006 This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles. 034:007 The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them. 034:008 O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him. 034:009 O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him. 034:010 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the LORD shall not want any good thing. 034:011 Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the LORD. 034:012 What man is he that desireth life, and loveth many days, that he may see good? 034:013 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile. 034:014 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it. 034:015 The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry. 034:016 The face of the LORD is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth. 034:017 The righteous cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles. 034:018 The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit. 034:019 Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all. 034:020 He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken. 034:021 Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate. 034:022 The LORD redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate.
035:001 Plead my cause, O LORD, with them that strive with me: fight against them that fight against me. 035:002 Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for mine help. 035:003 Draw out also the spear, and stop the way against them that persecute me: say unto my soul, I am thy salvation. 035:004 Let them be confounded and put to shame that seek after my soul: let them be turned back and brought to confusion that devise my hurt. 035:005 Let them be as chaff before the wind: and let the angel of the LORD chase them. 035:006 Let their way be dark and slippery: and let the angel of the LORD persecute them. 035:007 For without cause have they hid for me their net in a pit, which without cause they have digged for my soul. 035:008 Let destruction come upon him at unawares; and let his net that he hath hid catch himself: into that very destruction let him fall. 035:009 And my soul shall be joyful in the LORD: it shall rejoice in his salvation. 035:010 All my bones shall say, LORD, who is like unto thee, which deliverest the poor from him that is too strong for him, yea, the poor and the needy from him that spoileth him? 035:011 False witnesses did rise up; they laid to my charge things that I knew not. 035:012 They rewarded me evil for good to the spoiling of my soul. 035:013 But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth: I humbled my soul with fasting; and my prayer returned into mine own bosom. 035:014 I behaved myself as though he had been my friend or brother: I bowed down heavily, as one that mourneth for his mother. 035:015 But in mine adversity they rejoiced, and gathered themselves together: yea, the abjects gathered themselves together against me, and I knew it not; they did tear me, and ceased not: 035:016 With hypocritical mockers in feasts, they gnashed upon me with their teeth. 035:017 Lord, how long wilt thou look on? rescue my soul from their destructions, my darling from the lions. 035:018 I will give thee thanks in the great congregation: I will praise thee among much people. 035:019 Let not them that are mine enemies wrongfully rejoice over me: neither let them wink with the eye that hate me without a cause. 035:020 For they speak not peace: but they devise deceitful matters against them that are quiet in the land. 035:021 Yea, they opened their mouth wide against me, and said, Aha, aha, our eye hath seen it. 035:022 This thou hast seen, O LORD: keep not silence: O Lord, be not far from me. 035:023 Stir up thyself, and awake to my judgment, even unto my cause, my God and my Lord. 035:024 Judge me, O LORD my God, according to thy righteousness; and let them not rejoice over me. 035:025 Let them not say in their hearts, Ah, so would we have it: let them not say, We have swallowed him up. 035:026 Let them be ashamed and brought to confusion together that rejoice at mine hurt: let them be clothed with shame and dishonour that magnify themselves against me. 035:027 Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favour my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, Let the LORD be magnified, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant. 035:028 And my tongue shall speak of thy righteousness and of thy praise all the day long.
