A psalm of David.

¹ Praise the Lord, who is my rock.
He trains my hands for war
and gives my fingers skill for battle.

² He is my loving ally and my fortress,
my tower of safety, my rescuer.
He is my shield, and I take refuge in him.
He makes the nations submit to me.

³ O Lord, what are human beings that you should notice them,
mere mortals that you should think about them?

⁴ For they are like a breath of air;
their days are like a passing shadow.

⁵ Open the heavens, Lord, and come down.
Touch the mountains so they billow smoke.

⁶ Hurl your lightning bolts and scatter your enemies!
Shoot your arrows and confuse them!

⁷ Reach down from heaven and rescue me;
rescue me from deep waters,
from the power of my enemies.

⁸ Their mouths are full of lies;
they swear to tell the truth, but they lie instead.

⁹ I will sing a new song to you, O God!
I will sing your praises with a ten-stringed harp.

¹⁰ For you grant victory to kings!
You rescued your servant David from the fatal sword.

¹¹ Save me!
Rescue me from the power of my enemies.
Their mouths are full of lies;
they swear to tell the truth, but they lie instead.

¹² May our sons flourish in their youth
like well-nurtured plants.
May our daughters be like graceful pillars,
carved to beautify a palace.

¹³ May our barns be filled
with crops of every kind.
May the flocks in our fields multiply by the thousands,
even tens of thousands,

¹⁴ and may our oxen be loaded down with produce.
May there be no enemy breaking through our walls,
no going into captivity,
no cries of alarm in our town squares.

¹⁵ Yes, joyful are those who live like this!
Joyful indeed are those whose God is the Lord.

Psalm 14

// 14:1 The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.”

They are corrupt.

They have done abominable works.

There is none who does good.

// 14:2 Yahweh looked down from heaven on the children of men,

to see if there were any who understood,

who sought after God.

// 14:3 They have all gone aside.

They have together become corrupt.

There is none who does good, no, not one.

// 14:4 Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge,

who eat up my people as they eat bread,

and don’t call on Yahweh?

// 14:5 There they were in great fear,

for God is in the generation of the righteous.

// 14:6 You frustrate the plan of the poor,

because Yahweh is his refuge.

// 14:7 Oh that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion!

When Yahweh restores the fortunes of his people,

then Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.

A Song of Ascents. By Solomon

¹ Unless the LORD builds the house,

its builders labor in vain.

Unless the LORD watches over the city,

the watchmen stand guard in vain.

² In vain you rise early

and stay up late,

toiling for food to eat-

for he grants sleep to those he loves.

³ Sons are a heritage from the LORD,

children a reward from him.

⁴ Like arrows in the hands of a warrior

are sons born in one’s youth.

⁵ Blessed is the man

whose quiver is full of them.

They will not be put to shame

when they contend with their enemies in the gate.

Psalm 119

‘ Aleph

¹ Blessed are they whose ways are blameless,

who walk according to the law of the LORD.

² Blessed are they who keep his statutes

and seek him with all their heart.

³ They do nothing wrong;

they walk in his ways.

⁴ You have laid down precepts

that are to be fully obeyed.

⁵ Oh, that my ways were steadfast

in obeying your decrees!

⁶ Then I would not be put to shame

when I consider all your commands.

⁷ I will praise you with an upright heart

as I learn your righteous laws.

⁸ I will obey your decrees;

do not utterly forsake me.

43:1 Vindicate me, God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation.

Oh, deliver me from deceitful and wicked men.

Let them lead me.

Let them bring me to your holy hill,

To your tents.

Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God!

For I shall still praise him: my Savior, my helper, and my God
