A song of ascents. Of David.
1 If the Lord had not been on our side—
let Israel say—
2 if the Lord had not been on our sidey
when people attacked us,z
3 then they would have swallowed us alive
in their burning anger against us.aa
4 Then the water would have engulfed us;
the torrent would have swept over us;
5 the raging water would have swept over us.ab
who has not let us be ripped apart by their teeth.ac
7 We have escaped like a bird from the hunter’s net;
the net is torn, and we have escaped.ad
8 Our help is in the name of the Lord,
the Maker of heaven and earth.ae
A song of ascents.
1 Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion.
It cannot be shaken; it remains forever.a
2 The mountains surround Jerusalem
and the Lord surrounds his people,
both now and forever.b
3 The scepter of the wicked will not remain
over the land allotted to the righteous,
so that the righteous will not apply their hands to injustice.c
4 Do what is good, Lord, to the good,
to those whose hearts are upright.d
5 But as for those who turn aside to crooked ways,
the Lord will banish them with the evildoers.e
Peace be with Israel.f
A song of ascents.
1 When the Lord restored the fortunes of Zion,A
we were like those who dream.g
2 Our mouths were filled with laughter then,h
and our tongues with shouts of joy.i
Then they said among the nations,
“The Lord has done great things for them.”j
3 The Lord had done great things for us;
we were joyful.k
4 Restore our fortunes,B Lord,
like watercourses in the Negev.l
will reap with shouts of joy.m
6 Though one goes along weeping,
carrying the bag of seed,
he will surely come back with shouts of joy,
carrying his sheaves.n
A song of ascents. Of Solomon.
1 Unless the Lord builds a house,
its builders labor over it in vain;o
unless the Lord watches over a city,
the watchman stays alert in vain.p
2 In vain you get up early and stay up late,
working hard to have enough food—
yes, he gives sleep to the one he loves.C,q
3 Sons are indeed a heritage from the Lord,
offspring, a reward.r
4 Like arrows in the hand of a warrior
are the sons born in one’s youth.s
5 Happy is the man who has filled his quiver with them.t
They will never be put to shame
when they speak with their enemies at the city gate.u
BLESSINGS FOR THOSE WHO FEAR GOD
A song of ascents.
1 How happy is everyone who fears the Lord,
who walks in his ways!v
what your hands have worked for.w
You will be happy,
and it will go well for you.x
3 Your wife will be like a fruitful vine
within your house,
your children, like young olive trees
around your table.y
the man who fears the Lord
will be blessed.z
5 May the Lord bless you from Zion,
so that you will see the prosperity of Jerusalem
all the days of your lifeaa
6 and will see your children’s children!
Peace be with Israel.ab

About Christian Standard BibleThe Christian Standard Bible (CSB) is a highly trustworthy, faithful translation that is proven to be the optimal blend of accuracy and readability. It’s as literal to the original as possible without sacrificing clarity. The CSB is poised to become the translation that pastors rely on and Bible readers turn to again and again to read and to share with others. The CSB is an original translation: more than 100 scholars from 17 denominations translated directly from the best available Hebrew, Greek and Aramaic source texts into English. Its source texts are the standard used by scholars and seminaries today. The CSB is trustworthy: the conservative, evangelical scholars of the CSB affirm the authority of Scripture as the inerrant Word of God and seek the highest level of faithfulness to the original and accuracy in their translation. These scholars and LifeWay, the non-profit ministry that stewards the CSB, also champion the Bible against cultural trends that would compromise its truths. The CSB is clear: it is as literal a translation of the ancient source texts as possible, but, in the many places throughout Scripture where a word-for-word rendering might obscure the meaning for a modern audience, it uses a more dynamic translation. In all cases, the intent is to convey the original meaning of God’s Word as faithfully and as clearly as possible. |
