Psalm

1  Hear my law, O my people * incline your ears unto the words of my mouth.2  I will open my mouth in a parable * I will declare hard sentences of old;3  Which we have heard and known * and such as our fathers have told us;4  That we should not hide them from the children of the generations to come * but to shew the […]

1  The Lord is King, and hath put on glorious apparel * the Lord hath put on his apparel, and girded himself with strength.2  He hath made the round world so sure * that it cannot be moved.3  Ever since the world began hath thy seat been prepared * thou art from everlasting.4  The floods are risen, O Lord, the floods have lift up their […]

1  Like as the hart desireth the water-brooks * so longeth my soul after thee, O God.2  My soul is athirst for God, yea, even for the living God * when shall I come to appear before the presence of God?3  My tears have been my meat day and night * while they daily say unto me, Where is now thy God?4  Now when I […]

1  Give sentence with me, O God, and defend my cause against the ungodly people * O deliver me from the deceitful and wicked man.2  For thou art the God of my strength, why hast thou put me from thee * and why go I so heavily, while the enemy oppresseth me?3  O send out thy light and thy truth, that they […]

33  Teach me, O Lord, the way of thy statutes * and I shall keep it unto the end.34  Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law * yea, I shall keep it with my whole heart.35  Make me to go in the path of thy commandments * for therein is my desire.36  Incline my heart unto thy testimonies * and not to covetousness.37  O turn away […]

1  O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is gracious * and his mercy endureth for ever.2  Let them give thanks whom the Lord hath redeemed * and delivered from the hand of the enemy;3  And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west * from the north, and from the south.4  They went astray in the wilderness out […]

1  O hear ye this, all ye people * ponder it with your ears, all ye that dwell in the world;2  High and low, rich and poor * one with another.3  My mouth shall speak of wisdom * and my heart shall muse of understanding.4  I will incline mine ear to the parable * and shew my dark speech upon the harp.5  Wherefore should I fear in the […]

1  God standeth in the congregation of princes * he is a Judge among gods.2  How long will ye give wrong judgement * and accept the persons of the ungodly?3  Defend the poor and fatherless * see that such as are in need and necessity have right.4  Deliver the out-cast and poor * save them from the hand of the ungodly.5  They will not be learned nor understand, […]

1  Save me, O God, for thy Name’s sake * and avenge me in thy strength.2  Hear my prayer, O God * and hearken unto the words of my mouth.3  For strangers are risen up against me * and tyrants, which have not God before their eyes, seek after my soul.4  Behold, God is my helper * the Lord is with them that uphold my soul.5  He shall […]
