To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.
1 I †awaited patiently for the Lord;
And he inclined unto me, and bheard my cry.
2 He brought me up also out of †an horrible pit, out of the cmiry dclay,
And eset my feet upon a rock, and festablished my goings.
3 And he hath put ga new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God:
Many shall hsee it, and hfear, and shall itrust in the Lord.
4 kBlessed is that man that maketh the Lord his trust,
And respecteth not lthe proud, nor such as mturn aside to lies.
5 Many, O Lord my God, are nthy wonderful works which thou hast done,
And othy thoughts which are to us-ward:
||They cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee:
If I would declare and speak of them,
pThey are more than can be numbered.
6 qSacrifice and offering thou didst not desire;
Mine ears hast thou †opened:
Burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.
In the rvolume of the book it is swritten of me,
8 I delight to do tthy will, O my God:
Yea, thy law is †uwithin my heart.
9 I have preached righteousness win the great congregation:
Lo, xI have not yrefrained my lips,
O Lord, zthou 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 uthe great congregation.
11 yWithhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O Lord:
Let athy lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me.
12 For innumerable evils have bcompassed me about:
cMine iniquities have taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to look up;
ccThey are more than the hairs of mine head: therefore dmy heart †faileth me.
13 Be pleased, O Lord, eto deliver me:
O Lord, fmake haste to help me.
14 gLet 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 hdesolate for a reward of their shame
That isay unto me, Aha, aha.
16 Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee:
Let such as love thy salvation ksay continually, lThe Lord be magnified.
17 But mI am poor and needy; yet nthe Lord thinketh upon me:
Thou art my help and my deliverer;
Make no tarrying, O my God.
To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.
1 aBlessed is he that considereth ||the poor:
The Lord will bdeliver 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 bbstrengthen him upon the bed of languishing:
Thou wilt †make all his bed in his sickness.
4 I said, Lord, cbe merciful unto me:
dHeal 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 espeaketh 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 flieth he shall rise up no more.
9 gYea, †mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted,
hWhich did eat of my bread,
Hath †lifted up his heel against me.
10 But thou, O Lord, cbe 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, ithou upholdest me in mine integrity,
And settest me before thy face for ever.
13 kBlessed be the Lord God of Israel from everlasting, and to everlasting. lAmen, and Amen.
*To the chief Musician, ||Maschil, *for †the sons of Korah.
1 As the hart †panteth after athe water brooks,
So panteth my soul after thee, O God.
2 bMy soul thirsteth for God, for cthe living God:
When shall I come and ccappear before God?
3 dMy tears have been my meat day and night,
eWhile they continually say unto me, Where is thy God?
4 When I remember these things, fI pour out my soul in me:
For I had gone with the multitude, I gwent with them to the house of God,
With the voice of joy and praise, with a multitude that kept holyday.
5 hWhy art thou †cast down, O my soul? and hwhy art thou idisquieted in me?
jHope thou in God: for I shall yet ||kpraise him
||For the help of his countenance.
6 O my God, my soul is cast down within me: therefore will I remember thee
lFrom the land of Jordan, and of the mHermonites, from ||the hill Mizar.
7 nDeep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy owaterspouts:
pAll thy qwaves and thy billows are gone over me.
8 Yet the Lord will rcommand his lovingkindness in the daytime,
And sin the night his song shall be with me,
And my prayer unto the God of my life.
9 I will say unto God tmy rock, Why hast thou forgotten me?
uWhy go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
10 As with a ||sword in my bones, mine enemies reproach me;
eWhile they say daily unto me, Where is thy God?
11 xWhy 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.
1 aJudge me, O God, and bplead my cause against an ||ungodly nation:
O deliver me †from the deceitful and unjust man.
2 For thou art cthe God of my strength: why dost thou dcast me off?
eWhy 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 fthy holy hill, and to ffthy 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 gWhy 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.
To the chief Musician for *the sons of Korah, Maschil.
1 We have heard with our ears, O God,
aOur fathers have told us,
What work thou didst in their days, in bthe times of old.
2 How thou didst cdrive out the heathen with thy hand, and dplantedst them;
How thou didst afflict the people, and ecast them out.
3 For they got not the land in possession fby their own sword,
Neither did their own arm save them:
But thy right hand, and thine arm, and ffthe light of thy countenance,
gBecause thou hadst a favour unto them.
4 hThou art my King, O God:
iCommand deliverances for Jacob.
5 Through thee will we kpush down our enemies:
Through thy name will we ltread them under that rise up against us.
6 For mI will not trust fin my bow,
Neither shall my sword save me.
7 But thou hast saved us from our enemies,
And hast nput them to shame that hated us.
8 oIn God we boast all the day long,
And praise thy name for ever. Selah.
9 But thou hast pcast off, and put us to shame;
And qgoest not forth with our armies.
10 Thou makest us to rturn back from the enemy:
And they which hate us spoil for themselves.
11 sThou hast given us †like sheep appointed for meat;
And hast tscattered us among the heathen.
12 uThou sellest thy people †for nought,
And dost not increase thy wealth by their xprice.
13 Thou ymakest us zaa reproach to our neighbours,
aA scorn and a abderision to them that are round about us.
14 Thou makest us ca byword among the heathen,
dA shaking of the head among the people.
15 My confusion is continually before me,
And ethe shame of my face hath covered me,
16 For the voice of him that reproacheth and fblasphemeth;
By reason of gthe enemy and avenger.
17 hAll this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee,
Neither have we idealt falsely in thy covenant.
18 Our heart is not kturned back,
Neither have our ||steps ldeclined from thy way;
19 Though thou hast msore broken us in the place of ndragons,
And covered us with othe shadow of death.
20 If we have forgotten the name of our God,
Or pstretched out our hands to qa strange god;
21 Shall not rGod search this out?
For he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
22 Yea, sfor thy sake are we killed all the day long;
We are counted as sheep for the slaughter.
23 tAwake, why sleepest thou, O Lord?
Arise, ucast us not off for ever.
24 wWherefore hidest thou thy face,
And forgettest our affliction and our oppression?
25 For xour 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.
