38
O LORD, rebuke me not in thy wrath: neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
2
For thine arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand presseth me sore.
3
There is
no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither
is there any
rest in my bones because of my sin.
4
For mine iniquities are gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they are too heavy for me.
5
My wounds stink
and
are corrupt because of my foolishness.
6
I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.
7
For my loins are filled with a loathsome
disease:
and
there is
no soundness in my flesh.
8
I am feeble and sore broken: I have roared by reason of the disquietness of my heart.
9
Lord, all my desire
is
before thee; and my groaning is not hid from thee.
10
My heart panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me.
11
My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore; and my kinsmen stand afar off.
12
They also that seek after my life lay snares
for me:
and they that seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and imagine deceits all the day long.
13
But I, as a deaf
man,
heard not; and
I was
as a dumb man
that
openeth not his mouth.
14
Thus I was as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth
are
no reproofs.
15
For in thee, O LORD, do I hope: thou wilt hear, O Lord my God.
16
For I said,
Hear me,
lest
otherwise
they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify
themselves
against me.
17
For I
am
ready to halt, and my sorrow
is
continually before me.
18
For I will declare mine iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin.
19
But mine enemies
are
lively,
and
they are strong: and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.
20
They also that render evil for good are mine adversaries; because I follow
the thing that
good
is.
21
Forsake me not, O LORD: O my God, be not far from me.
22
Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation.
39
I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me.
2
I was dumb with silence, I held my peace,
even
from good; and my sorrow was stirred.
3
My heart was hot within me, while I was musing the fire burned:
then
spake I with my tongue,
4
LORD, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it
is; that
I may know how frail I
am.
5
Behold, thou hast made my days
as
an handbreadth; and mine age
is
as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state
is
altogether vanity. Selah.
6
Surely every man walketh in a vain shew: surely they are disquieted in vain: he heapeth up
riches,
and knoweth not who shall gather them.
7
And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope
is
in thee.
8
Deliver me from all my transgressions: make me not the reproach of the foolish.
9
I was dumb, I opened not my mouth; because thou didst
it.
10
Remove thy stroke away from me: I am consumed by the blow of thine hand.
11
When thou with rebukes dost correct man for iniquity, thou makest his beauty to consume away like a moth: surely every man
is
vanity. Selah.
12
Hear my prayer, O LORD, and give ear unto my cry; hold not thy peace at my tears: for I
am
a stranger with thee,
and
a sojourner, as all my fathers
were.
13
O spare me, that I may recover strength, before I go hence, and be no more.
40
I waited patiently for the LORD; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.
2
He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock,
and
established my goings.
3
And he hath put a new song in my mouth,
even
praise unto our God: many shall see
it,
and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.
4
Blessed
is
that man that maketh the LORD his trust, and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
5
Many, O LORD my God,
are
thy wonderful works
which
thou hast done, and thy thoughts
which are
to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee:
if
I would declare and speak
of them,
they are more than can be numbered.
6
Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.
7
Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book
it is
written of me,
8
I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law
is
within my heart.
9
I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I have not refrained my lips, O LORD, thou knowest.
10
I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy faithfulness and thy salvation: I have not concealed thy lovingkindness and thy truth from the great congregation.
11
Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O LORD: let thy lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me.
12
For innumerable evils have compassed me about: mine iniquities have taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the hairs of mine head: therefore my heart faileth me.
13
Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me: O LORD, make haste to help me.
14
Let them be ashamed and confounded together that seek after my soul to destroy it; let them be driven backward and put to shame that wish me evil.
15
Let them be desolate for a reward of their shame that say unto me, Aha, aha.
16
Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: let such as love thy salvation say continually, The LORD be magnified.
17
But I
am
poor and needy;
yet
the Lord thinketh upon me: thou
art
my help and my deliverer; make no tarrying, O my God.
41
Blessed
is
he that considereth the poor: the LORD will deliver him in time of trouble.
2
The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive;
and
he shall be blessed upon the earth: and thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of his enemies.
3
The LORD will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing: thou wilt make all his bed in his sickness.
4
I said, LORD, be merciful unto me: heal my soul; for I have sinned against thee.
5
Mine enemies speak evil of me, When shall he die, and his name perish?
6
And if he come to see
me,
he speaketh vanity: his heart gathereth iniquity to itself;
when
he goeth abroad, he telleth
it.
7
All that hate me whisper together against me: against me do they devise my hurt.
8
An evil disease,
say they,
cleaveth fast unto him: and
now
that he lieth he shall rise up no more.
9
Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread, hath lifted up
his
heel against me.
10
But thou, O LORD, be merciful unto me, and raise me up, that I may requite them.
11
By this I know that thou favourest me, because mine enemy doth not triumph over me.
12
And as for me, thou upholdest me in mine integrity, and settest me before thy face for ever.
13
Blessed
be
the LORD God of Israel from everlasting, and to everlasting. Amen, and Amen.
42
As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God.
2
My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I come and appear before God?
3
My tears have been my meat day and night, while they continually say unto me, Where
is
thy God?
4
When I remember these
things,
I pour out my soul in me: for I had gone with the multitude, I went with them to the house of God, with the voice of joy and praise, with a multitude that kept holyday.
5
Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why
art
thou disquieted in me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him
for
the help of his countenance.
6
O my God, my soul is cast down within me: therefore will I remember thee from the land of Jordan, and of the Hermonites, from the hill Mizar.
7
Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterspouts: all thy waves and thy billows are gone over me.
8
Yet
the LORD will command his lovingkindness in the daytime, and in the night his song
shall be
with me,
and
my prayer unto the God of my life.
9
I will say unto God my rock, Why hast thou forgotten me? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
10
As
with a sword in my bones, mine enemies reproach me; while they say daily unto me, Where
is
thy God?
11
Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him,
who is
the health of my countenance, and my God.
43
Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation: O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.
2
For thou
art
the God of my strength: why dost thou cast me off? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
3
O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.
4
Then will I go unto the altar of God, unto God my exceeding joy: yea, upon the harp will I praise thee, O God my God.
5
Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope in God: for I shall yet praise him,
who is
the health of my countenance, and my God.
44
We have heard with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us,
what
work thou didst in their days, in the times of old.
2
How
thou didst drive out the heathen with thy hand, and plantedst them;
how
thou didst afflict the people, and cast them out.
3
For they got not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them: but thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favour unto them.
4
Thou art my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob.
5
Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us.
6
For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.
7
But thou hast saved us from our enemies, and hast put them to shame that hated us.
8
In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy name for ever. Selah.
9
But thou hast cast off, and put us to shame; and goest not forth with our armies.
10
Thou makest us to turn back from the enemy: and they which hate us spoil for themselves.
11
Thou hast given us like sheep
appointed
for meat; and hast scattered us among the heathen.
12
Thou sellest thy people for nought, and dost not increase
thy wealth
by their price.
13
Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and a derision to them that are round about us.
14
Thou makest us a byword among the heathen, a shaking of the head among the people.
15
My confusion
is
continually before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me,
16
For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and avenger.
17
All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, neither have we dealt falsely in thy covenant.
18
Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from thy way;
19
Though thou hast sore broken us in the place of dragons, and covered us with the shadow of death.
20
If we have forgotten the name of our God, or stretched out our hands to a strange god;
21
Shall not God search this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
22
Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.
23
Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, cast
us
not off for ever.
24
Wherefore hidest thou thy face,
and
forgettest our affliction and our oppression?
25
For our soul is bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth unto the earth.
26
Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy mercies’ sake.
45
My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made touching the king: my tongue
is
the pen of a ready writer.
2
Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.
3
Gird thy sword upon
thy
thigh, O
most
mighty, with thy glory and thy majesty.
4
And in thy majesty ride prosperously because of truth and meekness
and
righteousness; and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things.
5
Thine arrows
are
sharp in the heart of the king’s enemies;
whereby
the people fall under thee.
6
Thy throne, O God,
is
for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom
is
a right sceptre.
7
Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
8
All thy garments
smell
of myrrh, and aloes,
and
cassia, out of the ivory palaces, whereby they have made thee glad.
9
Kings’ daughters
were
among thy honourable women: upon thy right hand did stand the queen in gold of Ophir.
10
Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father’s house;
11
So shall the king greatly desire thy beauty: for he
is
thy Lord; and worship thou him.
12
And the daughter of Tyre
shall be there
with a gift;
even
the rich among the people shall intreat thy favour.
13
The king’s daughter
is
all glorious within: her clothing
is
of wrought gold.
14
She shall be brought unto the king in raiment of needlework: the virgins her companions that follow her shall be brought unto thee.
15
With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought: they shall enter into the king’s palace.
16
Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children, whom thou mayest make princes in all the earth.
17
I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations: therefore shall the people praise thee for ever and ever.
46
God
is
our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
2
Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
3
Though
the waters thereof roar
and
be troubled,
though
the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.
4
There is
a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy
place
of the tabernacles of the most High.
5
God
is
in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her,
and that
right early.
6
The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted.
7
The LORD of hosts
is
with us; the God of Jacob
is
our refuge. Selah.
8
Come, behold the works of the LORD, what desolations he hath made in the earth.
9
He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire.
10
Be still, and know that I
am
God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
11
The LORD of hosts
is
with us; the God of Jacob
is
our refuge. Selah.
47
O clap your hands, all ye people; shout unto God with the voice of triumph.
2
For the LORD most high
is
terrible;
he is
a great King over all the earth.
3
He shall subdue the people under us, and the nations under our feet.
4
He shall choose our inheritance for us, the excellency of Jacob whom he loved. Selah.
5
God is gone up with a shout, the LORD with the sound of a trumpet.
6
Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, sing praises.
7
For God
is
the King of all the earth: sing ye praises with understanding.
8
God reigneth over the heathen: God sitteth upon the throne of his holiness.
9
The princes of the people are gathered together,
even
the people of the God of Abraham: for the shields of the earth
belong
unto God: he is greatly exalted.
48
Great
is
the LORD, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God,
in
the mountain of his holiness.
2
Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth,
is
mount Zion,
on
the sides of the north, the city of the great King.
3
God is known in her palaces for a refuge.
4
For, lo, the kings were assembled, they passed by together.
5
They saw
it, and
so they marvelled; they were troubled,
and
hasted away.
6
Fear took hold upon them there,
and
pain, as of a woman in travail.
7
Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish with an east wind.
8
As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God: God will establish it for ever. Selah.
9
We have thought of thy lovingkindness, O God, in the midst of thy temple.
10
According to thy name, O God, so
is
thy praise unto the ends of the earth: thy right hand is full of righteousness.
11
Let mount Zion rejoice, let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of thy judgments.
12
Walk about Zion, and go round about her: tell the towers thereof.
13
Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces; that ye may tell
it
to the generation following.
14
For this God
is
our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide
even
unto death.
49
Hear this, all
ye
people; give ear, all
ye
inhabitants of the world:
2
Both low and high, rich and poor, together.
3
My mouth shall speak of wisdom; and the meditation of my heart
shall be
of understanding.
4
I will incline mine ear to a parable: I will open my dark saying upon the harp.
5
Wherefore should I fear in the days of evil,
when
the iniquity of my heels shall compass me about?
6
They that trust in their wealth, and boast themselves in the multitude of their riches;
7
None
of them
can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him:
8
(For the redemption of their soul
is
precious, and it ceaseth for ever:)
9
That he should still live for ever,
and
not see corruption.
10
For he seeth
that
wise men die, likewise the fool and the brutish person perish, and leave their wealth to others.
11
Their inward thought
is, that
their houses
shall continue
for ever,
and
their dwelling places to all generations; they call
their
lands after their own names.
12
Nevertheless man
being
in honour abideth not: he is like the beasts
that
perish.
13
This their way
is
their folly: yet their posterity approve their sayings. Selah.
14
Like sheep they are laid in the grave; death shall feed on them; and the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning; and their beauty shall consume in the grave from their dwelling.
15
But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall receive me. Selah.
16
Be not thou afraid when one is made rich, when the glory of his house is increased;
17
For when he dieth he shall carry nothing away: his glory shall not descend after him.
18
Though while he lived he blessed his soul: and
men
will praise thee, when thou doest well to thyself.
19
He shall go to the generation of his fathers; they shall never see light.
20
Man
that is
in honour, and understandeth not, is like the beasts
that
perish.
