For the Chief Musician. By David the servant of Yahweh, who spoke to Yahweh the words of this song in the day that Yahweh delivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul. He said,

:

I love you, Yahweh, my strength.

:

Yahweh is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge; my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower.

:

I call on Yahweh, who is worthy to be praised; and I am saved from my enemies.

:

The cords of death surrounded me. The floods of ungodliness made me afraid.

:

The cords of Sheol were around me. The snares of death came on me.

:

In my distress I called on Yahweh, and cried to my God. He heard my voice out of his temple. My cry before him came into his ears.

:

Then the earth shook and trembled. The foundations also of the mountains quaked and were shaken, because he was angry.

:

Smoke went out of his nostrils. Consuming fire came out of his mouth. Coals were kindled by it.

:

He bowed the heavens also, and came down. Thick darkness was under his feet.

:

He rode on a cherub, and flew. Yes, he soared on the wings of the wind.

:

He made darkness his hiding place, his pavilion around him, darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies.

:

At the brightness before him his thick clouds passed, hailstones and coals of fire.

:

Yahweh also thundered in the sky. The Most High uttered his voice: hailstones and coals of fire.

:

He sent out his arrows, and scattered them; Yes, great lightning bolts, and routed them.

:

Then the channels of waters appeared. The foundations of the world were laid bare at your rebuke, Yahweh, at the blast of the breath of your nostrils.

:

He sent from on high. He took me. He drew me out of many waters.

:

He delivered me from my strong enemy, from those who hated me; for they were too mighty for me.

:

They came on me in the day of my calamity, but Yahweh was my support.

:

He brought me forth also into a large place. He delivered me, because he delighted in me.

:

Yahweh has rewarded me according to my righteousness. According to the cleanness of my hands has he recompensed me.

:

For I have kept the ways of Yahweh, and have not wickedly departed from my God.

:

For all his ordinances were before me. I didn’t put away his statutes from me.

:

I was also blameless with him. I kept myself from my iniquity.

:

Therefore Yahweh has rewarded me according to my righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands in his eyesight.

:

With the merciful you will show yourself merciful. With the perfect man, you will show yourself perfect.

:

With the pure, you will show yourself pure. With the crooked you will show yourself shrewd.

:

For you will save the afflicted people, but the haughty eyes you will bring down.

:

For you will light my lamp, Yahweh. My God will light up my darkness.

:

For by you, I advance through a troop. By my God, I leap over a wall.

:

As for God, his way is perfect. The word of Yahweh is tried. He is a shield to all those who take refuge in him.

:

For who is God, except Yahweh? Who is a rock, besides our God,

:

the God who arms me with strength, and makes my way perfect?

:

He makes my feet like deer’s feet, and sets me on my high places.

:

He teaches my hands to war, so that my arms bend a bow of bronze.

:

You have also given me the shield of your salvation. Your right hand sustains me. Your gentleness has made me great.

:

You have enlarged my steps under me, My feet have not slipped.

:

I will pursue my enemies, and overtake them. Neither will I turn again until they are consumed.

:

I will strike them through, so that they will not be able to rise. They shall fall under my feet.

:

For you have armed me with strength to the battle. You have subdued under me those who rose up against me.

:

You have also made my enemies turn their backs to me, that I might cut off those who hate me.

:

They cried, but there was none to save; even to Yahweh, but he didn’t answer them.

:

Then I beat them small as the dust before the wind. I cast them out as the mire of the streets.

:

You have delivered me from the strivings of the people. You have made me the head of the nations. A people whom I have not known shall serve me.

:

As soon as they hear of me they shall obey me. The foreigners shall submit themselves to me.

:

The foreigners shall fade away, and shall come trembling out of their close places.

:

Yahweh lives; and blessed be my rock. Exalted be the God of my salvation,

:

even the God who executes vengeance for me, and subdues peoples under me.

:

He rescues me from my enemies. Yes, you lift me up above those who rise up against me. You deliver me from the violent man.

:

Therefore I will give thanks to you, Yahweh, among the nations, and will sing praises to your name.

:

He gives great deliverance to his king, and shows loving kindness to his anointed, to David and to his seed, forevermore.

:

For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.

:

The heavens declare the glory of God. The expanse shows his handiwork.

:

Day after day they pour forth speech, and night after night they display knowledge.

:

There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.

:

Their voice has gone out through all the earth, their words to the end of the world. In them he has set a tent for the sun,

:

which is as a bridegroom coming out of his room, like a strong man rejoicing to run his course.

:

His going forth is from the end of the heavens, his circuit to its ends; There is nothing hidden from its heat.

:

Yahweh’s law is perfect, restoring the soul. Yahweh’s testimony is sure, making wise the simple.

:

Yahweh’s precepts are right, rejoicing the heart. Yahweh’s commandment is pure, enlightening the eyes.

:

The fear of Yahweh is clean, enduring forever. Yahweh’s ordinances are true, and righteous altogether.

:

More to be desired are they than gold, yes, than much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and the extract of the honeycomb.

:

Moreover by them is your servant warned. In keeping them there is great reward.

:

Who can discern his errors? Forgive me from hidden errors.

:

Keep back your servant also from presumptuous sins. Let them not have dominion over me. Then I will be upright. I will be blameless and innocent of great transgression.

:

Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, Yahweh, my rock, and my redeemer.

:

For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.

:

May Yahweh answer you in the day of trouble. May the name of the God of Jacob set you up on high,

:

send you help from the sanctuary, grant you support from Zion,

:

remember all your offerings, and accept your burnt sacrifice. Selah.

:

May He grant you your heart’s desire, and fulfill all your counsel.

:

We will triumph in your salvation. In the name of our God, we will set up our banners. May Yahweh grant all your requests.

:

Now I know that Yahweh saves his anointed. He will answer him from his holy heaven, with the saving strength of his right hand.

:

Some trust in chariots, and some in horses, but we trust the name of Yahweh our God.

:

They are bowed down and fallen, but we rise up, and stand upright.

:

Save, Yahweh! Let the King answer us when we call!

:

For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.

:

The king rejoices in your strength, Yahweh! How greatly he rejoices in your salvation!

:

You have given him his heart’s desire, and have not withheld the request of his lips. Selah.

:

For you meet him with the blessings of goodness. You set a crown of fine gold on his head.

:

He asked life of you, you gave it to him, even length of days forever and ever.

:

His glory is great in your salvation. You lay honor and majesty on him.

:

For you make him most blessed forever. You make him glad with joy in your presence.

:

For the king trusts in Yahweh. Through the loving kindness of the Most High, he shall not be moved.

:

Your hand will find out all of your enemies. Your right hand will find out those who hate you.

:

You will make them as a fiery furnace in the time of your anger. Yahweh will swallow them up in his wrath. The fire shall devour them.

:

You will destroy their descendants from the earth, their posterity from among the children of men.

:

For they intended evil against you. They plotted evil against you which cannot succeed.

:

For you will make them turn their back, when you aim drawn bows at their face.

:

Be exalted, Yahweh, in your strength, so we will sing and praise your power.

:

For the Chief Musician; set to “The Doe of the Morning.” A Psalm by David.

:

My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from helping me, and from the words of my groaning?

:

My God, I cry in the daytime, but you don’t answer; in the night season, and am not silent.

:

But you are holy, you who inhabit the praises of Israel.

:

Our fathers trusted in you. They trusted, and you delivered them.

:

They cried to you, and were delivered. They trusted in you, and were not disappointed.

:

But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised by the people.

:

All those who see me mock me. They insult me with their lips. They shake their heads, saying,

:

“He trusts in Yahweh; let him deliver him. Let him rescue him, since he delights in him.”

:

But you brought me out of the womb. You made me trust at my mother’s breasts.
