To You, there will be silence and praise in Zion, O God,
And to You the vow will be paid.
O You who hear prayer,
To You all flesh comes.
Words of iniquity prevail against me;
As for our transgressions, You atone for them.
How blessed is the one whom You choose and bring near to You
That he would dwell in Your courts.
We will be satisfied with the goodness of Your house,
Your holy temple.

The righteous man will be glad in Yahweh and will take refuge in Him;
And all the upright in heart will boast.

O God, You are my God; I shall seek You earnestly;
My soul thirsts for You, my flesh yearns for You,
In a dry and weary land without water.
Thus I have beheld You in the sanctuary,
To see Your power and Your glory.
Because Your lovingkindness is better than life,
My lips will laud You.
Thus I will bless You as long as I live;
I will lift up my hands in Your name.
My soul is satisfied as with fatness and richness,
And my mouth offers praises with lips of joyful songs.
When I remember You on my bed,
I meditate on You in the night watches,
For You have been my help,
And in the shadow of Your wings I sing for joy.
My soul clings to You;
Your right hand upholds me.

Surely wait in silence for God, O my soul,
For my hope is from Him.
Surely He is my rock and my salvation,
My stronghold; I shall not be shaken.
On God my salvation and my glory rest;
The rock of my strength, my refuge is in God.
Trust in Him at all times, O people;
Pour out your heart before Him;
God is a refuge for us. Selah.

Once God has spoken;
Twice I have heard this:
That strength belongs to God;
And that to You, O Lord, belongs lovingkindness,
For You repay a man according to his work.

Hear my cry of lamentation, O God;
Give heed to my prayer.
From the end of the earth I call to You when my heart is faint;
Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
For You have been a refuge for me,
A tower of strength before the enemy.
Let me sojourn in Your tent forever;
Let me take refuge in the shelter of Your wings. Selah.

Appoint lovingkindness and truth that they may guard him.
So I will sing praise to Your name forever,
As I pay my vows day by day.

Oh give us help against the adversary,
For salvation by man is worthless.
Through God we shall do valiantly,
And it is He who will tread down our adversaries.

But as for me, I shall sing of Your strength;
And I shall joyfully sing of Your lovingkindness in the morning,
For You have been my stronghold
And a refuge in the day of my distress.
O my strength, I will sing praises to You;
For God is my stronghold, the God who shows me lovingkindness.

Do you indeed speak righteousness, O gods?
Do you judge with equity, O sons of men?
No, in heart you work unrighteousness;
On earth you prepare a path for the violence of your hands.
The wicked are estranged from the womb;
These who speak falsehood wander in error from birth.
They have venom like the venom of a serpent;
Like a deaf cobra that stops up its ear,
So that it does not hear the voice of charmers,
Or a skillful caster of spells.

My heart is set, O God, my heart is set;
I will sing, yes, I will sing praises!
Awake, my glory!
Awake, harp and lyre!
I will awaken the dawn.
I will give thanks to You, O Lord, among the peoples;
I will sing praises to You among the nations.
For Your lovingkindness is great to the heavens
And Your truth to the skies.
Be exalted above the heavens, O God;
Let Your glory be above all the earth.

When I am afraid,
I will trust in You.
In God, whose word I praise,
In God I trust;
I shall not be afraid.
What can mere man do to me?
•••
This I know, that God is for me.
In God, whose word I praise,
In Yahweh, whose word I praise,
In God I trust, I shall not be afraid.
What can man do to me?
Your vows are binding upon me, O God;
I will fulfill thank offerings to You.
For You have delivered my soul from death,
Indeed my feet from stumbling,
So that I may walk before God
In the light of the living.
