PSALMS For He is come to judge the earth; He will judge the world with right- eousness, And the peoples in His faithfulness.
The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; Let the multitude of isles be glad. Clouds and darkness are round ^about Him; Righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. 3A fire goeth before Him, And burneth up His adversaries round about.
4His lightnings lighted up the world; The earth saw, and trembled. The mountains melted like wax at the presence of the LORD, At the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
The heavens declared His righteous- ness, And all the peoples saw His glory.
7Ashamed be all they that serve graven images, That boast themselves of things of nought; Bow down to Him, all ye gods.
8Zion heard and was glad, And the daughters of Judah re- joiced; Because of Thy judgments, 0 LORD.
9For Thou, LORD, art most high above all the earth; Thou art exalted far above all gods.

A Psalm.
0 sing unto the LORD a new song; For He hath done marvellous things; His right hand, and His holy arm, hath wrought salvation for Him. 2The LORD hath made known His salvation; His righteousness hath He revealed in the sight of the nations. 3He hath remembered His mercy and His faithfulness toward the house of Israel; All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

6Moses and Aaron among His priests, And Samuel among them that call upon His name, Did call upon the LORD, and He answered them. 7He spoke uato them in the pillar of cloud; They kept His testimonies, and the statute that He gave them. 8O LOKD our God, Thou didst answer f them; A forgiving God wast Thou unto them, Though Thou tookest vengeance of their misdeeds. 9Exalt ye the LORD our God, And worship at His holy hill; For the LORD our God is holy.

A Psalm of David.
I will sing of mercy and justice; Unto Thee, 0 LORD, will I sing praises. 2I will give heed unto the way of integrity; Oh when wilt Thou come unto me? I will walk within my house in the integrity of my heart.
3I will set no base thing before mine eyes, I hate the doing of things crooked; It shall not cleave unto me. 4A perverse heart shall depart from me; I will know no evil thing.
6Whoso slandereth his neighbour in secret, him will I destroy; Whoso is haughty of eye and proud of heart, him will I not suffer. 6Mine eyes are upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me; He that walketh in a way of integrity, he shall minister unto me.
7He that worke'th deceit shall not dwell within my house; He that speaketh falsehood shall not be established before mine eyes. 8Morning by morning will I destroy all the wicked of the land; To cut off all the workers of iniquity from the city of the LORD.
PSALMS 1 AO A Prayer of the afflicted, iv when he fainteth, and pour- eth out his complaint before the LORD.
20 LORD, hear my prayer, And let my cry come unto Thee. 3Hide not Thy face from me in the day of my distress; Incline Thine ear unto me; In the day when I call answer me speedily.
4For my days are consumed like smoke, And my bones are burned as a hearth, 3My heart is smitten like grass, and withered; For I forget to eat my bread.
6By reason of the voice of my sigh- ing My bones cleave to my flesh.
7I am like a pelic'an of the wilder- ness; I am become as an owl of the waste places.
8I watch, and am become Like a sparrow that is alone upon the housetop.
9Mine enemies taunt me all the day; <They that are mad against me do curse by me.
°For I have eaten ashes like bread, And mingled my drink with weeping. "Because of Thine indignation and Thy wrath; For Thou hast taken me up, and cast me away.
l2My days are like a lengthening shadow; And I am withered like grass.
l3But Thou, 0 LOED, sittest enthroned for ever; And Thy name is unto all genera- -tions.
14Thou wilt arise, and have compas- sion upon Zion; For it is time to be gracious unto her, for the appointed time is come. 16For Thy servants take pleasure in her stones, And love her dust. 16So the nations will fear the name of the LOED, And all the kings of the earth Thy glory; 17When the LOBD hath built up Zion, When He hath appeared in His glory; 18When He hath regarded the prayer of the destitute, And hath not despised their prayer.
19This shall be written for the genera- tion to come; And a people which shall be created shall praise the LOBD. 20For He hath looked down from the height of His sanctuary; From heaven did the LORD behold * the earth; 21To hear the groaning of the prisoner; To loose those that are appointed to death; ^That men may tell of the name of the LORD in Zion, And His praise in Jerusalem; 23When the peoples are gathered together, And the kingdoms, to serve the LORD.
2*He weakened my strengtji in the way; He shortened my days. 26I say: '0 my God, take me not away in the midst of my days, Thou whose years endure through- out all generations, old Thou didst lay the founda- tion of the earth; PSALMS And the heavens are the work of Thy hands. 37They shaU perish, but Thou shalt endure; Yea, all of them shall wax old like a garment; As a vesture shalt Thou change them, and they shall pass away; 28But Thou art the selfsame, And Thy years shall have no end. 29The children of Thy servants shall dwell securely, And their seed shall be established before Thee/ [A Psalm] of David.
Bless the LORD, O my soul; And^ all that is within me, bless His holy name. 2Bless the LORD, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits; 8Who forgiveth all thine iniquity; Who healeth all thy diseases; 4Whp redeemeth thy life from the pit; Who encompasseth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies; Who satisfieth thine old age with good things; So that thy youth is renewed like the eagle.
6The LOED executeth righteousness, And acts of justice for all that are oppressed. 7He made known His ways unto Moses, His doings unto the children of Israel. 8The LORD is full of compassion and gracious, Slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.
9He will not always contend; Neither will He keep His anger for ever.
10He hath not dealt with us after our sins, Nor requited us according to our iniquities. "For as the heaven is high above the earth, So great is His mercy toward them that fear Him.
12As far as the east is from the west, So far hath He removed our trans- gressions from us. 13Like as a father hath compassion upon his children, So hath the LORD compassion upon them that fear Him. 14For He knoweth our frame; He remembereth that we are dust. 18As for man, his days are as grass; As a flower of the field, so he flourisheth. 16For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; And the plkce thereof knoweth it no more.
17But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear Him, And His righteousness unto chil- dren's children; 18To such as keep His covenant, And to those that refnember His precepts to do them.
"The LORD hath established His throne in the heavens; And His kingdom ruleth over all. 20Bless the LORD, ye angels of His,, Ye mighty in strength, that fulfil His word, Hearkening unto the voice of His word.
21Bless the LORD, all ye His hosts; Ye ministers of His, that do His pleasure.

5Who didst establish the earth upon its foundations, That it should not be moved for ever and ever; 6Thou didst cover it with the deep as with a vesture; The waters stood above the moun- tains.
7At Thy rebuke they fled, At the voice of Thy thunder they hasted away — 8The mountains rose, the valleys sank down — Unto the place which Thou hadst founded for them; 9Thou didst set a bound which they should not pass over, That they might not return to cover the earth.
10Who sendest forth springs into the valleys; They run between the mountains; "They give drink to every beast of the field, The wild asses quench their thirst. 12Beside them dwell the fowl of the heaven, From among the branches they sing.
13Who waterest the mountains from Thine upper chambers; The earth is full of the fruit of Thy works.
14Who causest the grass to spring up for the cattle, And herb for the service of man; To bring forth bread out of. the earth, 15And wine that maketh glad the heart of man, Making the face brighter than oil, And bread that stayeth man's heart. 16The trees of the LORD have their fill, The cedars of Lebanon, which He hath planted; 17Wherein the birds make their nests; As for the stork, the fir-trees are her hotise. 18The high mountains are for the wild goats; The rocks are a refuge for the conies.
19 Who appointedst the moon for seasons; The sun knoweth his going down. 20Thou makest darkness, and it is night, Wherein all the beasts of the forest do creep forth. 21The young lions roar after their prey, And seek their food from God. 22The sun ariseth, they slink away, And couch in their dens. ^Man goeth forth unto his work And to his labour until the evening.
24How manifold are Thy works, 0 LORD!
In wisdom hast Thou made them all; The earth is full of Thy creatures. 25Yonder sea, great and wide, PSALMS Therein, are creeping things in- numerable, Living creatures, both small and great.
26There go the ships; There is leviathan, wfrom Thou hast formed to sport therein. 27A11 of them wait for Thee, That Thou mayest give them their food in due season. 38Thou giyest it unto them, they gather it; Thou openest Thy hand, they are satisfied with good. 29Thou hidest Thy face, they vanish; Thou withdrawest their breath, they perish, And return to their dust. 30Thou sendest forth Thy spirit, they are created; And Thou renewest the face of the earth.

7He is the LORD our God, His judgments are m all the earth. 8He hath remembered His covenant for ever, The word which He commanded to a thousand generations; 9 [The covenant] which He made with Abraham, And His oath unto Isaac; 10And He established it unto Jacob for a statute, To Israel for an everlasting covenant; "Saying: 'Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, The lot of your inheritance.'
12When they were but a few men in number, Yea, very few, and sojourners in it, 13And when they went about from nation to nation, From one kingdom to another people, 14He suffered no man to do them wrong, Yea, for their sake He reproved kings: 15( Touch not Mine anointed ones, And do My prophets no harm.7 16And He -called a famine upon the land; "That is. Praise ye the LORD* PSALMS He broke the whole staff of bread. 17He sent a man before them; Joseph was sold for a servant; 18His feet they hurt with fetters, His person was laid in iron; "Until the time that his word came to pass, The word of the LOBD tested him. 20The king sent and loosed him; Even the ruler of peoples, and set him free. ^He made him lord of his house, And ruler of all his possessions; 2^0 bind his princes at his pleasure.
And teach his elders wisdom.
^Israel also came into Egypt; And Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.
24And He increased His people great- ly, And made them too mighty for their adversaries. 2&He turned their heart to hate His people, To deal craftily with His servants. 26He sent Moses His servant, And Aaron whom He had chosen. 27They wrought among them His manifold signs, And wonders in the land of Ham. 28He sent darkness, and it was dark; And they rebelled not against His word. 29He turned their waters into blood, And slew their fish. 30Their land swarmed with frogs, In the chambers of their kings. 81He spoke, and there came swarms of flies, And gnats in all their borders. 82He gave them hail for rain, And flaming fire in their land. ^He smote their vines also and their fig-trees; And broke the trees of their borders. ^He spoke, and the locust came, And the canker-worm without num- ber, 85And did eat up every herb in their land? And did eat up the fruit of their ground. 86He smote also all the first-born in their land, The first-fruits of all their strength. 37And He brought them forth with silver and gold; And there was none that stumbled among His tribes.
S8Egypt was glad when they departed; For the fear of them had fallen upon them.
39He spread a cloud for a screen; And fire to give light in the night.
40They asked, and He brought quails, And gave them in plenty the bread of heaven. ^He opened the rock, and waters gushed out; They ran, a river in the dry places, ^For He remembered His holy word Unto Abraham His servant; ^And He brought forth His people with joy, His chosen ones with singing. **And He gave them the lands of the nations, And they took the labour of the peoples in possession; 45That they might keep His statutes, And observe His laws.

6We have sinned with our fathers, We have done iniquitously, we have dealt wickedly. 70ur fathers in Egypt gave no heed unto Thy wonders; They remembered not the multitude of Thy mercies; But were rebellious at the sea, even at the Red Sea. Nevertheless He saved them for His name's sake, That He might make His mighty power to be known. 9And He rebuked the Red Sea, and it was dried up; And He le'd them through the depths, as through a wilderness. 10And He saved them from the hand of him that hated them, And redeemed them from the hand of the eneiny.
uAnd the waters covered their adver- saries; There was not one of them left. 12Then believed they His words; They sang His praise.
wThey soon forgot His works; They waited not for His counsel; 14But lusted exceedingly in the wil- derness, And tried God in the desert. 16And He gave them their request; But sent leanness into their soul.
16They were jealous also of Moses in the camp, And of Aaron the holy one of the LORD. 17The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, And covered the company of Abiram.
18And a fire was kindled in their com- pany; The flame burned up the wicked.
19They made a calf in Horeb, And worshipped a molten image.
20Thus they exchanged their glory For the likeness of an ox that eateth in 21They forgot God their saviour, Who had done great things ^Wondrous works in the land of Ham, Terrible things by the Red Sea. ^Therefore He said that He would destroy them, Had not Moses His chosen stood before Him in the breach, To turn back His wrath, lest He should destroy them.
24Moreover, they scorned the desir- able land, They believed not His word; 26And they murmured in their tents, They hearkened not unto the voice • of the LORD. 26Therefore He swore concerning them, That He would overthrow them in the wilderness; 27And that He would cast out their seed among the nations, And scatter them in the lands.
28They joined themselves also unto Baal of Peor, And ate the sacrifices of the dead. 29Thus they provoked Him with their doings, And the plague broke in upon them.
PSALMS 80Then stood up Phinehas, and wrought judgment, And so the plague was stayed. 31 And that was counted unto him for righteousness, Unto all generations for ever.
32They angered Him also at the waters of Meribah, And it went ill with Moses because of them; 33For they embittered his spirit, And he spoke rashly with his lips.
hey did not destroy the peoples, As the LORD commanded them; 36But mingled themselves with the nations, And learned their works; 36And they served their idols, Which became a snare unto them; 37Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto demons, 38And shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, Whom they sacrificed unto the ^idols of Canaan; And the land was polluted with blood. 89Thus were they defiled with their works, And went astray in their doings.
therefore was the wrath of the LORD kindled against His people, And He abhorred His inheritance.
^And He gave them into the hand of the nations; And they that hated them ruled over them.
^Their enemies also oppressed them, And they were subdued under their hand.
^Many times did He deliver them; But they were rebellious in their counsel, And sank low through their iniquity, i ^Nevertheless He looked upon their distress, When He heard their cry; 46And He remembered for them His covenant, And repented according to the multitude of His mercies. 46He made them also to be pitied Of all those that carried them cap- tive.
47Save us, 0 LOBD our God, And gather us from among the nations, That we may give thanks unto Thy holy name, That we may triumph in Thy praise.
^Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, From everlasting even to everlasting And let all the people say 'Amen.' Hallelujah.

10Such as sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, Being bound in affliction and iron — nBecause they rebelled against the words of God, And contemned the counsel of the Most High. 12Therefore He humbled their heart with travail, They stumbled, and there was none to help — 13They cried unto the LORD in their trouble, And He saved them out of their distresses. 14He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, And broke their bands in sunder. 1BLet them give thanks unto the LORD for His mercy, And for His wonderful works to the children of men! 16For He hath broken the gates of brass, And cut the bars of iron in sunder.

23They that go down to the sea in ships, That do business in great waters — 24These saw the works of the LORD, And His wonders in the deep; 26For He commanded, and raised the stormy wind, Which lifted up the waves thereof; 26They mounted up to the heaven, they went down to the deeps; Their soul melted away because of trouble; 27They reeled to and fro, and stag- gered like a drunken man, And all their wisdom was swallowed up— 28They cried unto the LORD in their trouble, And He brought them out of their distresses. 29He made the storm a calm, So that the waves thereof wore still. 30Then were they glad because they were quiet, And He led them unto their de- sired haven. 31Let them give thanks unto the LORD for His mercy, And for His wonderful works to the children of men! 32Let them exalt Him also in the assembly of the people, And praise Him in the seat of the elders.
PSALMS 33He turneth rivers into a wilderness, And watersprings into a thirsty ground; 34A fruitful land into a salt waste, For the wickedness of them that dwell therein.
85He turneth a wilderness into a pool of water, And a dry land into watersprings. 36And there He maketh the hungry to dwell, And they establish a city of habita- tion; 37And sow fields, and plant vineyards, Which yield fruits of increase. 38He blesseth them also, so that they are multiplied greatly, And suffereth not their cattle to decrease.
39Again, they are minished and dwindle away Through oppression of evil and sorrow.
40He poureth contempt upon princes, And causeth them to wander in the waste, where there is no way. ^Yet setteth He the needy on high from affliction, And maketh his families like a flock.
^The upright see it, and are glad; And all iniquity stoppeth her mouth.
^Whoso is wise, let him observe these things, And let them consider the mercies of the LORD.

"Who will bring me into the fortified city?
Who will lead me unto Edom? 12Hast not Thou cast us off, 0 God? And Thou goest not forth, 0 God, with our hosts. 13Give us help against the adversary; For vain is the help of man. 14Through God we shall do valiantly; For He it is thait will tread down our adversaries.

0 God of my praise, keep not silence, 2For the moui(h of the wicked and the mouth of deceit have they opened against me; PSALMS They have spoken unto me with a lying tongue. ^They compassed me about also with words of hatred, And fought against me without a cause. 4In return for my love they are my adversaries; But I am all prayer. 5And they have laid upon me evil for good, And hatred for my love: 6'Set Thou a wicked man over him; And let an adversary stand at his right hand. HVhen he is judged, let him go forth condemned; And let his prayer be turned into sin.
8Let his days be few; Let another take his charge. 9Let his children be fatherless, And his wife a widow. 10Let his -children be vagabonds, and beg; And let them seek their bread out of their desolate places. uLet the creditor distrain all that he hath; And let strangers make spoil of his labour.
"Let there be none to extend kind- ness unto him; Neither let there be any to be gracious unto his fatherless children.
"Let his posterity be cut off; In the generation following let their name be blotted out. 14Let the iniquity of his fathers be brought to remembrance unto the LOBD; And let not the sin of his mother be blotted out. "Let them be before the LOBD continually, That He may cut off the memory oJ them from the earth. 16Because that he remembered not tc do kindness, But persecuted the poor and need} man, And the broken in heart he was ready to slay. 17Yea, he loved cursing, and it came unto him; And he delighted not in blessing and it is far from him. 18He clothed himself also with cursing as with his raiment, And it is come into his inward parts like water, And like oil into his bones. 19Let it be unto him as the garment which he putteth on, And for the girdle wherewith he is girded continually.'
20This would mine adversaries effect from the LORD, And they that speak evil against my soul. 21But Thou, O GOD the Lord, deal with me for Thy name's sake; Because Thy mercy is good, deliver Thou me. ^For I am poor and needy, And my heart is wounded within me. MI am gone like the shadow when it lengtheneth; I am shaken off as the locust. 24My knees totter through fasting; And my flesh is lean, and hath no fatness. 25I am become also a taunt unto them; When they see me, they shake their head.
26Help me, 0 LORD my God; 0 save me according to Thy mercy; 27That they may know that this is Thy hand; PSALMS That Thou, LORD, hast done it. 28Let them curse, but bless Thou; When they arise, they shall be put to shame, but Thy servant shall rejoice. 29Mme adversaries shall be clothed with confusion, And shall put on their own shame as a robe. 30I will give great thanks unto the LOBD with my mouth; Yea, I will praise Him among the multitude; 31Because He standeth at the right hand of the needy, To save him from them that judge his soul.
1 10 A Psalm of The LOBD saith unto my lord: 'Sit thou at My right hand, Until I make thine enemies thy footstool.' 2The rod of thy strength the LORD will send out of Zion: 'Rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.' 3Thy people offer themselves willingly in the day of thy warfare; In adornments of holiness, from the womb of the dawn, Thine is the dew of thy youth.
LOKD hath sworn, and will not repent: 'Thou art a priest for ever After the manner of Melchizedek.' The Lord at thy right hand Doth crush kings in the day of His wrath.
