Jehovah knoweth the thoughts of man, That they are vanity.

That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity, Until the pit be digged for the wicked.

For judgment shall return unto righteousness; And all the upright in heart shall follow it.

Unless Jehovah had been my help, My soul had soon dwelt in silence.

In the multitude of my thoughts within me Thy comforts delight my soul.

They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, And condemn the innocent blood.

And he hath brought upon them their own iniquity, And will cut them off in their own wickedness; Jehovah our God will cut them off.

Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving; Let us make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.

In his hand are the deep places of the earth; The heights of the mountains are his also.

Oh come, let us worship and bow down; Let us kneel before Jehovah our Maker:

Harden not your heart, as at Meribah, As in the day of Massah in the wilderness;

Forty years long was I grieved with [that] generation, And said, It is a people that do err in their heart, And they have not known my ways:

Oh sing unto Jehovah a new song: Sing unto Jehovah, all the earth.

Declare his glory among the nations, His marvellous works among all the peoples.

For all the gods of the peoples are idols; But Jehovah made the heavens.

Ascribe unto Jehovah, ye kindreds of the peoples, Ascribe unto Jehovah glory and strength.

Oh worship Jehovah in holy array: Tremble before him, all the earth.

Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof;

Before Jehovah; For he cometh, For he cometh to judge the earth: He will judge the world with righteousness, And the peoples with his truth.

Clouds and darkness are round about him: Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.

His lightnings lightened the world: The earth saw, and trembled.

The heavens declare his righteousness, And all the peoples have seen his glory.

Zion heard and was glad, And the daughters of Judah rejoiced, Because of thy judgments, O Jehovah.

O ye that love Jehovah, hate evil: He preserveth the souls of his saints; He delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.
