1Unto the end, a psalm for David. To thee, O Lord, have I lifted up my soul.
1 The earth is Jehovah's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
1 The earth is the Lord's, with all its wealth; the world and all the people living in it.
2In thee, O my God, I put my trust; let me not be ashamed.
2 For it was he that founded it upon seas, and established it upon floods.
2For by him it was based on the seas, and made strong on the deep rivers.
3Neither let my enemies laugh at me: for none of them that wait on thee shall be confounded.
3 Who shall ascend into the mount of Jehovah? and who shall stand in his holy place?
3Who may go up into the hill of the Lord? and who may come into his holy place?
4Let all them be confounded that act unjust things without cause. Shew, O Lord, thy ways to me, and teach me thy paths.
4 He that hath blameless hands and a pure heart; who lifteth not up his soul unto vanity, nor sweareth deceitfully:
4He who has clean hands and a true heart; whose desire has not gone out to foolish things, who has not taken a false oath.
5Direct me in thy truth, and teach me; for thou art God my Saviour; and on thee have I waited all the day long.
5 He shall receive blessing from Jehovah, and righteousness from theGod of his salvation.
5He will have blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
6Remember, O Lord, thy bowels of compassion; and thy mercies that are from the beginning of the world.
6 This is the generation of them that seek unto him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. Selah.
6This is the generation of those whose hearts are turned to you, even to your face, O God of Jacob. (Selah.)
7The sins of my youth and my ignorances do not remember. According to thy mercy remember thou me: for thy goodness' sake, O Lord.
7 Lift up your heads, ye gates, and be ye lifted up, ye everlasting doors, and the King of glory shall come in.
7Let your heads be lifted up, O doors; be lifted up, O you eternal doors: that the King of glory may come in.
8The Lord is sweet and righteous: therefore he will give a law to sinners in the way.
8 Who is this King of glory? Jehovah strong and mighty, Jehovah mighty in battle.
8Who is the King of glory? The Lord of strength and power, the Lord strong in war.
9He will guide the mild in judgment: he will teach the meek his ways.
9 Lift up your heads, ye gates; yea, lift up, ye everlasting doors, and the King of glory shall come in.
9Let your heads be lifted up, O doors; let them be lifted up, O you eternal doors: that the King of glory may come in.
10All the ways of the Lord are mercy and truth, to them that seek after his covenant and his testimonies.
10 Who is he, this King of glory? Jehovah of hosts, he is the King of glory. Selah.
10Who is the King of glory? The Lord of armies, he is the King of glory. (Selah.)
11For thy name's sake, O Lord, thou wilt pardon my sin: for it is great.
