1Praise, for David himself. I will extol thee, O God my king: and I will bless thy name for ever; yea, for ever and ever.
1 Blessed be Jehovah my rock, who teacheth my hands to war, my fingers to fight;
1By David. Blessed <FI>is<Fi> Jehovah my rock, who is teaching My hands for war, my fingers for battle.
2Every day will I bless thee: and I will praise thy name for ever; yea, for ever and ever.
2 My mercy and my fortress, my high tower and my deliverer, my shield and he in whom I trust, who subdueth my people under me!
2My kind one, and my bulwark, My tower, and my deliverer, My shield, and in whom I have trusted, Who is subduing my people under me!
3Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised: and of his greatness there is no end.
3 Jehovah, what is man, that thou takest knowledge of him, the son of man, that thou takest thought of him?
3Jehovah, what <FI>is<Fi> man that Thou knowest him? Son of man, that Thou esteemest him?
4Generation and generation shall praise thy works: and they shall declare thy power.
4 Man is like to vanity; his days are as a shadow that passeth away.
4Man to vanity hath been like, His days <FI>are<Fi> as a shadow passing by.
5They shall speak of the magnificence of the glory of thy holiness: and shall tell thy wondrous works.
5 Jehovah, bow thy heavens, and come down; touch the mountains, that they smoke;
5Jehovah, incline Thy heavens and come down, Strike against mountains, and they smoke.
6And they shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and shall declare thy greatness.
6 Cast forth lightnings, and scatter them; send forth thine arrows, and discomfit them:
6Send forth lightning, and scatter them, Send forth Thine arrows, and trouble them,
7They shall publish the memory of the abundance of thy sweetness: and shall rejoice in thy justice.
7 Stretch out thy hands from above; rescue me, and deliver me out of great waters, from the hand of aliens,
7Send forth Thy hand from on high, Free me, and deliver me from many waters, From the hand of sons of a stranger,
8The Lord is gracious and merciful: patient and plenteous in mercy.
8 Whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood.
8Because their mouth hath spoken vanity, And their right hand <FI>is<Fi> a right hand of falsehood.
9The Lord is sweet to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.
9 OGod, I will sing a new song unto thee; with the ten-stringed lute will I sing psalms unto thee:
9O God, a new song I sing to Thee, On a psaltery of ten strings I sing praise to Thee.
10Let all thy works, O Lord, praise thee: and let thy saints bless thee.
10 Who givest salvation unto kings; who rescuest David thy servant from the hurtful sword.
10Who is giving deliverance to kings, Who is freeing David His servant from the sword of evil.
11They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom: and shall tell of thy power:
11 Rescue me, and deliver me from the hand of aliens, whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood.
11Free me, and deliver me From the hand of sons of a stranger, Because their mouth hath spoken vanity, And their right hand <FI>is<Fi> a right hand of falsehood,
12To make thy might known to the sons of men: and the glory of the magnificence of thy kingdom.
12 That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; our daughters as corner-columns, sculptured after the fashion of a palace:
12Because our sons <FI>are<Fi> as plants, Becoming great in their youth, Our daughters as hewn stones, Polished--the likeness of a palace,
13Thy kingdom is a kingdom of all ages: and thy dominion endureth throughout all generations. The Lord is faithful in all his words: and holy in all his works.
13 Our granaries full, affording all manner of store; our sheep bringing forth thousands, ten thousands in our pastures;
13Our garners <FI>are<Fi> full, bringing out from kind to kind, Our flocks are bringing forth thousands, Ten thousands in our out-places,
14The Lord lifteth up all that fall: and setteth up all that are cast down.
14 Our kine laden [with young]; no breaking in and no going forth, and no outcry in our streets.
14Our oxen are carrying, there is no breach, And there is no outgoing, And there is no crying in our broad places.
15The eyes of all hope in thee, O Lord: and thou givest them meat in due season.
15 Blessed the people that is in such a case! Blessed the people whoseGod is Jehovah!
15O the happiness of the people that is thus, O the happiness of the people whose God <FI>is<Fi> Jehovah!
16Thou openest thy hand, and fillest with blessing every living creature.
