I will come with the mighty acts of the Lord Jehovah: I will make mention of thy righteousness, even of thine only.

Yea, even when I am old and grayheaded, O God, forsake me not, Until I have declared thy strength unto [the next] generation, Thy might to every one that is to come.

Thou, who hast showed us many and sore troubles, Wilt quicken us again, And wilt bring us up again from the depths of the earth.

I will also praise thee with the psaltery, [Even] thy truth, O my God: Unto thee will I sing praises with the harp, O thou Holy One of Israel.

My tongue also shall talk of thy righteousness all the day long; For they are put to shame, for they are confounded, that seek my hurt.

He will judge thy people with righteousness, And thy poor with justice.

He will judge the poor of the people, He will save the children of the needy, And will break in pieces the oppressor.

He will come down like rain upon the mown grass, As showers that water the earth.

He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, And from the River unto the ends of the earth.

The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall render tribute: The kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts.

For he will deliver the needy when he crieth, And the poor, that hath no helper.

He will redeem their soul from oppression and violence; And precious will their blood be in his sight:

There shall be abundance of grain in the earth upon the top of the mountains; The fruit thereof shall shake like Lebanon: And they of the city shall flourish like grass of the earth.

Blessed be Jehovah God, the God of Israel, Who only doeth wondrous things:

The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.

But as for me, my feet were almost gone; My steps had well nigh slipped.

For there are no pangs in their death; But their strength is firm.

Therefore pride is as a chain about their neck; Violence covereth them as a garment.

They scoff, and in wickedness utter oppression: They speak loftily.

Therefore his people return hither: And waters of a full [cup] are drained by them.

Behold, these are the wicked; And, being alway at ease, they increase in riches.

For all the day long have I been plagued, And chastened every morning.

When I thought how I might know this, It was too painful for me;

Surely thou settest them in slippery places: Thou castest them down to destruction.
