The faithful are called upon to praise God. pray unto thee † in a time when thou mayest be found: surely in the floods of great waters they shall not come nigh unto him.

Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah.

I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: † I will guide thee with mine eye.

Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, lest they come near unto thee.

Many sorrows shall be to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the, mercy shall compass him about.

Be glad in the, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart. 

Ejoice in the, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright.

Praise the with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery and an instrument of ten strings.

Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise.

For the word of the is right; and all his works are done in truth.

He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the ‖ goodness of the.

By the word of the were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.

He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up the depth in storehouses.

Let all the earth fear the : let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.

For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.

The † bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect.

The counsel of the standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart † to all generations.

Blessed is the nation whose God is the ; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.

The looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men.

From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth.

He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works.

There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.

An horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great strength.

Behold, the eye of the is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy;

To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.

Our soul waiteth for the : he is our help and our shield.

For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his holy name.

Let thy mercy, O, be upon us, according as we hope in thee. 

Will bless the at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.

My soul shall make her boast in the : the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.

O magnify the with me, and let us exalt his name together.

I sought the, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.

‖ They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed.

This poor man cried, and the heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.

The angel of the encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.

O taste and see that the is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him.

O fear the, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.

The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the shall not want any good thing.

Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the. T t t 2
