Truly God
is
good to Israel,
even
to such as are of a clean heart.
2
But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had well nigh slipped.
3
For I was envious at the foolish,
when
I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
4
For
there are
no bands in their death: but their strength
is
firm.
5
They
are
not in trouble
as other
men; neither are they plagued like
other
men.
6
Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth them
as
a garment.
7
Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart could wish.
8
They are corrupt, and speak wickedly
concerning
oppression: they speak loftily.
9
They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walketh through the earth.
10
Therefore his people return hither: and waters of a full
cup
are wrung out to them.
11
And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the most High?
12
Behold, these
are
the ungodly, who prosper in the world; they increase
in
riches.
13
Verily I have cleansed my heart
in
vain, and washed my hands in innocency.
14
For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning.
15
If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend
against
the generation of thy children.
16
When I thought to know this, it
was
too painful for me;
17
Until I went into the sanctuary of God;
then
understood I their end.
18
Surely thou didst set them in slippery places: thou castedst them down into destruction.
19
How are they
brought
into desolation, as in a moment! they are utterly consumed with terrors.
20
As a dream when
one
awaketh;
so,
O Lord, when thou awakest, thou shalt despise their image.
21
Thus my heart was grieved, and I was pricked in my reins.
22
So foolish
was
I, and ignorant: I was
as
a beast before thee.
23
Nevertheless I
am
continually with thee: thou hast holden
me
by my right hand.
24
Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me
to
glory.
25
Whom have I in heaven
but thee?
and
there is
none upon earth
that
I desire beside thee.
26
My flesh and my heart faileth:
but
God
is
the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever.
27
For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish: thou hast destroyed all them that go a whoring from thee.
28
But
it is
good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, that I may declare all thy works.
74
O God, why hast thou cast us off for ever?
why
doth thine anger smoke against the sheep of thy pasture?
2
Remember thy congregation,
which
thou hast purchased of old; the rod of thine inheritance,
which
thou hast redeemed; this mount Zion, wherein thou hast dwelt.
3
Lift up thy feet unto the perpetual desolations;
even
all
that
the enemy hath done wickedly in the sanctuary.
4
Thine enemies roar in the midst of thy congregations; they set up their ensigns
for
signs.
5
A man
was famous according as he had lifted up axes upon the thick trees.
6
But now they break down the carved work thereof at once with axes and hammers.
7
They have cast fire into thy sanctuary, they have defiled
by casting down
the dwelling place of thy name to the ground.
8
They said in their hearts, Let us destroy them together: they have burned up all the synagogues of God in the land.
9
We see not our signs:
there is
no more any prophet: neither
is there
among us any that knoweth how long.
10
O God, how long shall the adversary reproach? shall the enemy blaspheme thy name for ever?
11
Why withdrawest thou thy hand, even thy right hand? pluck
it
out of thy bosom.
12
For God
is
my King of old, working salvation in the midst of the earth.
13
Thou didst divide the sea by thy strength: thou brakest the heads of the dragons in the waters.
14
Thou brakest the heads of leviathan in pieces,
and
gavest him
to be
meat to the people inhabiting the wilderness.
15
Thou didst cleave the fountain and the flood: thou driedst up mighty rivers.
16
The day
is
thine, the night also
is
thine: thou hast prepared the light and the sun.
17
Thou hast set all the borders of the earth: thou hast made summer and winter.
18
Remember this,
that
the enemy hath reproached, O LORD, and
that
the foolish people have blasphemed thy name.
19
O deliver not the soul of thy turtledove unto the multitude
of the wicked:
forget not the congregation of thy poor for ever.
20
Have respect unto the covenant: for the dark places of the earth are full of the habitations of cruelty.
21
O let not the oppressed return ashamed: let the poor and needy praise thy name.
22
Arise, O God, plead thine own cause: remember how the foolish man reproacheth thee daily.
23
Forget not the voice of thine enemies: the tumult of those that rise up against thee increaseth continually.
75
Unto thee, O God, do we give thanks,
unto thee
do we give thanks: for
that
thy name is near thy wondrous works declare.
2
When I shall receive the congregation I will judge uprightly.
3
The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. Selah.
4
I said unto the fools, Deal not foolishly: and to the wicked, Lift not up the horn:
5
Lift not up your horn on high: speak
not with
a stiff neck.
6
For promotion
cometh
neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.
7
But God
is
the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.
8
For in the hand of the LORD
there is
a cup, and the wine is red; it is full of mixture; and he poureth out of the same: but the dregs thereof, all the wicked of the earth shall wring
them
out,
and
drink
them.
9
But I will declare for ever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.
10
All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off;
but
the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.
76
In Judah
is
God known: his name
is
great in Israel.
2
In Salem also is his tabernacle, and his dwelling place in Zion.
3
There brake he the arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. Selah.
4
Thou
art
more glorious
and
excellent than the mountains of prey.
5
The stouthearted are spoiled, they have slept their sleep: and none of the men of might have found their hands.
6
At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, both the chariot and horse are cast into a dead sleep.
7
Thou,
even
thou,
art
to be feared: and who may stand in thy sight when once thou art angry?
8
Thou didst cause judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,
9
When God arose to judgment, to save all the meek of the earth. Selah.
10
Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: the remainder of wrath shalt thou restrain.
11
Vow, and pay unto the LORD your God: let all that be round about him bring presents unto him that ought to be feared.
12
He shall cut off the spirit of princes:
he is
terrible to the kings of the earth.
77
I cried unto God with my voice,
even
unto God with my voice; and he gave ear unto me.
2
In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord: my sore ran in the night, and ceased not: my soul refused to be comforted.
3
I remembered God, and was troubled: I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah.
4
Thou holdest mine eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speak.
5
I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times.
6
I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own heart: and my spirit made diligent search.
7
Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favourable no more?
8
Is his mercy clean gone for ever? doth
his
promise fail for evermore?
9
Hath God forgotten to be gracious? hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? Selah.
10
And I said, This
is
my infirmity:
but I will remember
the years of the right hand of the most High.
11
I will remember the works of the LORD: surely I will remember thy wonders of old.
12
I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings.
13
Thy way, O God,
is
in the sanctuary: who
is so
great a God as
our
God?
14
Thou
art
the God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy strength among the people.
15
Thou hast with
thine
arm redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah.
16
The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they were afraid: the depths also were troubled.
17
The clouds poured out water: the skies sent out a sound: thine arrows also went abroad.
18
The voice of thy thunder
was
in the heaven: the lightnings lightened the world: the earth trembled and shook.
19
Thy way
is
in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy footsteps are not known.
20
Thou leddest thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
78
Give ear, O my people,
to
my law: incline your ears to the words of my mouth.
2
I will open my mouth in a parable: I will utter dark sayings of old:
3
Which we have heard and known, and our fathers have told us.
4
We will not hide
them
from their children, shewing to the generation to come the praises of the LORD, and his strength, and his wonderful works that he hath done.
5
For he established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a law in Israel, which he commanded our fathers, that they should make them known to their children:
6
That the generation to come might know
them, even
the children
which
should be born;
who
should arise and declare
them
to their children:
7
That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep his commandments:
8
And might not be as their fathers, a stubborn and rebellious generation; a generation
that
set not their heart aright, and whose spirit was not stedfast with God.
9
The children of Ephraim,
being
armed,
and
carrying bows, turned back in the day of battle.
10
They kept not the covenant of God, and refused to walk in his law;
11
And forgat his works, and his wonders that he had shewed them.
12
Marvellous things did he in the sight of their fathers, in the land of Egypt,
in
the field of Zoan.
13
He divided the sea, and caused them to pass through; and he made the waters to stand as an heap.
14
In the daytime also he led them with a cloud, and all the night with a light of fire.
15
He clave the rocks in the wilderness, and gave
them
drink as
out of
the great depths.
16
He brought streams also out of the rock, and caused waters to run down like rivers.
17
And they sinned yet more against him by provoking the most High in the wilderness.
18
And they tempted God in their heart by asking meat for their lust.
19
Yea, they spake against God; they said, Can God furnish a table in the wilderness?
20
Behold, he smote the rock, that the waters gushed out, and the streams overflowed; can he give bread also? can he provide flesh for his people?
21
Therefore the LORD heard
this,
and was wroth: so a fire was kindled against Jacob, and anger also came up against Israel;
22
Because they believed not in God, and trusted not in his salvation:
23
Though he had commanded the clouds from above, and opened the doors of heaven,
24
And had rained down manna upon them to eat, and had given them of the corn of heaven.
25
Man did eat angels’ food: he sent them meat to the full.
26
He caused an east wind to blow in the heaven: and by his power he brought in the south wind.
27
He rained flesh also upon them as dust, and feathered fowls like as the sand of the sea:
28
And he let
it
fall in the midst of their camp, round about their habitations.
29
So they did eat, and were well filled: for he gave them their own desire;
30
They were not estranged from their lust. But while their meat
was
yet in their mouths,
31
The wrath of God came upon them, and slew the fattest of them, and smote down the chosen
men
of Israel.
32
For all this they sinned still, and believed not for his wondrous works.
33
Therefore their days did he consume in vanity, and their years in trouble.
34
When he slew them, then they sought him: and they returned and enquired early after God.
35
And they remembered that God
was
their rock, and the high God their redeemer.
36
Nevertheless they did flatter him with their mouth, and they lied unto him with their tongues.
37
For their heart was not right with him, neither were they stedfast in his covenant.
38
But he,
being
full of compassion, forgave
their
iniquity, and destroyed
them
not: yea, many a time turned he his anger away, and did not stir up all his wrath.
39
For he remembered that they
were but
flesh; a wind that passeth away, and cometh not again.
40
How oft did they provoke him in the wilderness,
and
grieve him in the desert!
41
Yea, they turned back and tempted God, and limited the Holy One of Israel.
42
They remembered not his hand,
nor
the day when he delivered them from the enemy.
43
How he had wrought his signs in Egypt, and his wonders in the field of Zoan:
44
And had turned their rivers into blood; and their floods, that they could not drink.
45
He sent divers sorts of flies among them, which devoured them; and frogs, which destroyed them.
46
He gave also their increase unto the caterpiller, and their labour unto the locust.
47
He destroyed their vines with hail, and their sycomore trees with frost.
48
He gave up their cattle also to the hail, and their flocks to hot thunderbolts.
49
He cast upon them the fierceness of his anger, wrath, and indignation, and trouble, by sending evil angels
among them.
50
He made a way to his anger; he spared not their soul from death, but gave their life over to the pestilence;
51
And smote all the firstborn in Egypt; the chief of
their
strength in the tabernacles of Ham:
52
But made his own people to go forth like sheep, and guided them in the wilderness like a flock.
53
And he led them on safely, so that they feared not: but the sea overwhelmed their enemies.
54
And he brought them to the border of his sanctuary,
even to
this mountain,
which
his right hand had purchased.
55
He cast out the heathen also before them, and divided them an inheritance by line, and made the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tents.
56
Yet they tempted and provoked the most high God, and kept not his testimonies:
57
But turned back, and dealt unfaithfully like their fathers: they were turned aside like a deceitful bow.
58
For they provoked him to anger with their high places, and moved him to jealousy with their graven images.
59
When God heard
this,
he was wroth, and greatly abhorred Israel:
60
So that he forsook the tabernacle of Shiloh, the tent
which
he placed among men;
61
And delivered his strength into captivity, and his glory into the enemy’s hand.
62
He gave his people over also unto the sword; and was wroth with his inheritance.
63
The fire consumed their young men; and their maidens were not given to marriage.
64
Their priests fell by the sword; and their widows made no lamentation.
65
Then the Lord awaked as one out of sleep,
and
like a mighty man that shouteth by reason of wine.
66
And he smote his enemies in the hinder parts: he put them to a perpetual reproach.
67
Moreover he refused the tabernacle of Joseph, and chose not the tribe of Ephraim:
68
But chose the tribe of Judah, the mount Zion which he loved.
69
And he built his sanctuary like high
palaces,
like the earth which he hath established for ever.
70
He chose David also his servant, and took him from the sheepfolds:
71
From following the ewes great with young he brought him to feed Jacob his people, and Israel his inheritance.
72
So he fed them according to the integrity of his heart; and guided them by the skilfulness of his hands.
79
O God, the heathen are come into thine inheritance; thy holy temple have they defiled; they have laid Jerusalem on heaps.
2
The dead bodies of thy servants have they given
to be
meat unto the fowls of the heaven, the flesh of thy saints unto the beasts of the earth.
3
Their blood have they shed like water round about Jerusalem; and
there was
none to bury
them.
4
We are become a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and derision to them that are round about us.
5
How long, LORD? wilt thou be angry for ever? shall thy jealousy burn like fire?
6
Pour out thy wrath upon the heathen that have not known thee, and upon the kingdoms that have not called upon thy name.
7
For they have devoured Jacob, and laid waste his dwelling place.
8
O remember not against us former iniquities: let thy tender mercies speedily prevent us: for we are brought very low.
9
Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of thy name: and deliver us, and purge away our sins, for thy name’s sake.
10
Wherefore should the heathen say, Where
is
their God? let him be known among the heathen in our sight
by
the revenging of the blood of thy servants
which is
shed.
11
Let the sighing of the prisoner come before thee; according to the greatness of thy power preserve thou those that are appointed to die;
12
And render unto our neighbours sevenfold into their bosom their reproach, wherewith they have reproached thee, O Lord.
13
So we thy people and sheep of thy pasture will give thee thanks for ever: we will shew forth thy praise to all generations.
80
Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; thou that dwellest
between
the cherubims, shine forth.
2
Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh stir up thy strength, and come
and
save us.
3
Turn us again, O God, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.
4
O LORD God of hosts, how long wilt thou be angry against the prayer of thy people?
5
Thou feedest them with the bread of tears; and givest them tears to drink in great measure.
6
Thou makest us a strife unto our neighbours: and our enemies laugh among themselves.
7
Turn us again, O God of hosts, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.
8
Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt: thou hast cast out the heathen, and planted it.
9
Thou preparedst
room
before it, and didst cause it to take deep root, and it filled the land.
10
The hills were covered with the shadow of it, and the boughs thereof
were like
the goodly cedars.
11
She sent out her boughs unto the sea, and her branches unto the river.
12
Why hast thou
then
broken down her hedges, so that all they which pass by the way do pluck her?
13
The boar out of the wood doth waste it, and the wild beast of the field doth devour it.
14
Return, we beseech thee, O God of hosts: look down from heaven, and behold, and visit this vine;
15
And the vineyard which thy right hand hath planted, and the branch
that
thou madest strong for thyself.
16
It is
burned with fire,
it is
cut down: they perish at the rebuke of thy countenance.
17
Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, upon the son of man
whom
thou madest strong for thyself.
18
So will not we go back from thee: quicken us, and we will call upon thy name.
19
Turn us again, O LORD God of hosts, cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.
81
Sing aloud unto God our strength: make a joyful noise unto the God of Jacob.
2
Take a psalm, and bring hither the timbrel, the pleasant harp with the psaltery.
3
Blow up the trumpet in the new moon, in the time appointed, on our solemn feast day.
4
For this
was
a statute for Israel,
and
a law of the God of Jacob.
5
This he ordained in Joseph
for
a testimony, when he went out through the land of Egypt:
where
I heard a language
that
I understood not.
6
I removed his shoulder from the burden: his hands were delivered from the pots.
7
Thou calledst in trouble, and I delivered thee; I answered thee in the secret place of thunder: I proved thee at the waters of Meribah. Selah.
8
Hear, O my people, and I will testify unto thee: O Israel, if thou wilt hearken unto me;
9
There shall no strange god be in thee; neither shalt thou worship any strange god.
10
I
am
the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.
11
But my people would not hearken to my voice; and Israel would none of me.
12
So I gave them up unto their own hearts’ lust:
and
they walked in their own counsels.
13
Oh that my people had hearkened unto me,
and
Israel had walked in my ways!
14
I should soon have subdued their enemies, and turned my hand against their adversaries.
15
The haters of the LORD should have submitted themselves unto him: but their time should have endured for ever.
16
He should have fed them also with the finest of the wheat: and with honey out of the rock should I have satisfied thee.
