1 I have complete confidence, O God! I will sing and praise you! Wake up, my soul!

2 Wake up, my harp and lyre! I will wake up the sun.

3 I will thank you, O Lord, among the nations. I will praise you among the peoples.

4 Your constant love reaches above the heavens; your faithfulness touches the skies.

5 Show your greatness in the sky, O God, and your glory over all the earth.

6 Save us by your might; answer my prayer, so that the people you love may be rescued.

7 From his sanctuary God has said, "In triumph I will divide Shechem and distribute Sukkoth Valley to my people.

8 Gilead is mine, and Manasseh too; Ephraim is my helmet and Judah my royal scepter.

9 But I will use Moab as my washbowl, and I will throw my sandals on Edom, as a sign that I own it. I will shout in triumph over the Philistines."

10 Who, O God, will take me into the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?

11 Have you really rejected us? Aren't you going to march out with our armies?

12 Help us against the enemy; human help is worthless.

13 With God on our side we will win; he will defeat our enemies.

1 I praise you, God; don't remain silent!

2 Wicked people and liars have attacked me. They tell lies about me,

3 and they say evil things about me, attacking me for no reason.

4 They oppose me, even though I love them and have prayed for them.

5 They pay me back evil for good and hatred for love.

6 Choose some corrupt judge to try my enemy, and let one of his own enemies accuse him.

7 May he be tried and found guilty; may even his prayer be considered a crime!

8 May his life soon be ended; may someone else take his job!

9 May his children become orphans, and his wife a widow!

10 May his children be homeless beggars; may they be driven from the ruins they live in!

11 May his creditors take away all his property, and may strangers get everything he worked for.

12 May no one ever be kind to him or care for the orphans he leaves behind.

13 May all his descendants die, and may his name be forgotten in the next generation.

14 May the Lord remember the evil of his ancestors and never forgive his mother's sins.

15 May the Lord always remember their sins, but may they themselves be completely forgotten!

16 That man never thought of being kind; he persecuted and killed the poor, the needy, and the helpless.

17 He loved to curse - may he be cursed! He hated to give blessings - may no one bless him!

18 He cursed as naturally as he dressed himself; may his own curses soak into his body like water and into his bones like oil!

19 May they cover him like clothes and always be around him like a belt!

20 Lord, punish my enemies in that way - those who say such evil things against me!

21 But my Sovereign Lord, help me as you have promised, and rescue me because of the goodness of your love.

22 I am poor and needy; I am hurt to the depths of my heart.

23 Like an evening shadow I am about to vanish; I am blown away like an insect.

24 My knees are weak from lack of food; I am nothing but skin and bones.

25 When people see me, they laugh at me; they shake their heads in scorn.

26 Help me, O Lord my God; because of your constant love, save me!

27 Make my enemies know that you are the one who saves me.

28 They may curse me, but you will bless me. May my persecutors be defeated, and may I, your servant, be glad.

29 May my enemies be covered with disgrace; may they wear their shame like a robe.

30 I will give loud thanks to the Lord; I will praise him in the assembly of the people,

31 because he defends the poor and saves them from those who condemn them to death.

1 The Lord said to my lord, "Sit here at my right side until I put your enemies under your feet."

2 From Zion the Lord will extend your royal power. "Rule over your enemies," he says.

3 On the day you fight your enemies, your people will volunteer. Like the dew of early morning your young men will come to you on the sacred hills.

4 The Lord made a solemn promise and will not take it back: "You will be a priest forever in the priestly order of Melchizedek."

5 The Lord is at your right side; when he becomes angry, he will defeat kings.

6 He will pass judgment on the nations and fill the battlefield with corpses; he will defeat kings all over the earth.

7 The king will drink from the stream by the road, and strengthened, he will stand victorious.

1 Praise the Lord! With all my heart I will thank the Lord in the assembly of his people.

2 How wonderful are the things the Lord does! All who are delighted with them want to understand them.

3 All he does is full of honor and majesty; his righteousness is eternal.

4 The Lord does not let us forget his wonderful actions; he is kind and merciful.

5 He provides food for those who honor him; he never forgets his covenant.

6 He has shown his power to his people by giving them the lands of foreigners.

7 In all he does he is faithful and just; all his commands are dependable.

8 They last for all time; they were given in truth and righteousness.

9 He set his people free and made an eternal covenant with them. Holy and mighty is he!

10 The way to become wise is to honor the Lord; he gives sound judgment to all who obey his commands. He is to be praised forever.

1 Praise the Lord! Happy is the person who honors the Lord, who takes pleasure in obeying his commands.

2 The good man's children will be powerful in the land; his descendants will be blessed.

3 His family will be wealthy and rich, and he will be prosperous forever.

4 Light shines in the darkness for good people, for those who are merciful, kind, and just.

5 Happy is the person who is generous with his loans, who runs his business honestly.

6 A good person will never fail; he will always be remembered.

7 He is not afraid of receiving bad news; his faith is strong, and he trusts in the Lord.

8 He is not worried or afraid; he is certain to see his enemies defeated.

9 He gives generously to the needy, and his kindness never fails; he will be powerful and respected.

10 The wicked see this and are angry; they glare in hate and disappear; their hopes are gone forever.

1 Praise the Lord! You servants of the Lord, praise his name!

2 May his name be praised, now and forever.

3 From the east to the west praise the name of the Lord!

4 The Lord rules over all nations; his glory is above the heavens.

5 There is no one like the Lord our God. He lives in the heights above,

6 but he bends down to see the heavens and the earth.

7 He raises the poor from the dust; he lifts the needy from their misery

8 and makes them companions of princes, the princes of his people.

9 He honors the childless wife in her home; he makes her happy by giving her children. Praise the Lord!

1 When the people of Israel left Egypt, when Jacob's descendants left that foreign land,

2 Judah became the Lord's holy people, Israel became his own possession.

3 The Red Sea looked and ran away; the Jordan River stopped flowing.

4 The mountains skipped like goats; the hills jumped around like lambs.

5 What happened, Sea, to make you run away? And you, O Jordan, why did you stop flowing?

6 You mountains, why did you skip like goats? You hills, why did you jump around like lambs?

7 Tremble, earth, at the Lord's coming, at the presence of the God of Jacob,

8 who changes rocks into pools of water and solid cliffs into flowing springs.
