1Exult, ye righteous, in Jehovah: praise is comely for the upright.

1Sing, ye righteous, in Jehovah, For upright ones praise <FI>is<Fi> comely.

1For David, when he changed his countenance before Achimelech, who dismissed him, and he went his way.

2 Give thanks unto Jehovah with the harp; sing psalms unto him with the ten-stringed lute.

2Give ye thanks to Jehovah with a harp, With psaltery of ten strings sing praise to Him,

2I will bless the Lord at all times, his praise shall be always in my mouth.

3 Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud sound.

3Sing ye to Him a new song, Play skilfully with shouting.

3In the Lord shall my soul be praised: let the meek hear and rejoice.

4 For the word of Jehovah is right, and all his work is in faithfulness.

4For upright <FI>is<Fi> the word of Jehovah, And all His work <FI>is<Fi> in faithfulness.

4O magnify the Lord with me; and let us extol his name together.

5 He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the loving-kindness of Jehovah.

5Loving righteousness and judgment, Of the kindness of Jehovah is the earth full.

5I sought the Lord, and he heard me; and he delivered me from all my troubles.

6 By the word of Jehovah were the heavens made, and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.

6By the word of Jehovah The heavens have been made, And by the breath of His mouth all their host.

6Come ye to him and be enlightened: and your faces shall not be confounded.

7 He gathereth the waters of the sea together as a heap; he layeth up the deeps in storehouses.

7Gathering as a heap the waters of the sea, Putting in treasuries the depths.

7This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him: and saved him out of all his troubles.

8 Let all the earth fear Jehovah; let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.

8Afraid of Jehovah are all the earth, Of Him are all the inhabitants of the world afraid.

8The angel of the Lord shall encamp round about them that fear him: and shall deliver them.

9 For he spoke, and it was [done]; he commanded, and it stood fast.

9For He hath said, and it is, He hath commanded, and it standeth.

9O taste, and see that the Lord is sweet: blessed is the man that hopeth in him.

10 Jehovah frustrateth the counsel of the nations; he maketh the thoughts of the peoples of none effect.

10Jehovah made void the counsel of nations, He disallowed the thoughts of the peoples.

10Fear the Lord, all ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.

11 The counsel of Jehovah standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart from generation to generation.

11The counsel of Jehovah to the age standeth, The thoughts of His heart to all generations.

11The rich have wanted, and have suffered hunger: but they that seek the Lord shall not be deprived of any good.

12 Blessed is the nation whoseGod is Jehovah, the people that he hath chosen for his inheritance!

12O the happiness of the nation whose God <FI>is<Fi> Jehovah, Of the people He did choose, For an inheritance to Him.

12Come, children, hearken to me: I will teach you the fear of the Lord.

13 Jehovah looketh from the heavens; he beholdeth all the sons of men:

13From the heavens hath Jehovah looked, He hath seen all the sons of men.

13Who is the man that desireth life: who liveth to see good days?

14 From the place of his habitation he looketh forth upon all the inhabitants of the earth;

14From the fixed place of His dwelling, He looked unto all inhabitants of the earth;

14Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.

15 He who fashioneth the hearts of them all, who considereth all their works.

15Who is forming their hearts together, Who is attending unto all their works.

15Turn away from evil and do good: seek after peace and pursue it.

16 The king is not saved by the multitude of [his] forces; a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.

16The king is not saved by the multitude of a force. A mighty man is not delivered, By abundance of power.

16The eyes of the Lord are upon the just: and his ears unto their prayers.

17 The horse is a vain thing for safety; neither doth he deliver by his great power.

17A false thing <FI>is<Fi> the horse for safety, And by the abundance of his strength He doth not deliver.

17But the countenance of the Lord is against them that do evil things: to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.

18 Behold, the eye of Jehovah is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his loving-kindness,

18Lo, the eye of Jehovah <FI>is<Fi> to those fearing Him, To those waiting for His kindness,

18The just cried, and the Lord heard them: and delivered them out of all their troubles.

19 To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.

19To deliver from death their soul, And to keep them alive in famine.

19The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a contrite heart: and he will save the humble of spirit.

20 Our soul waiteth for Jehovah: he is our help and our shield.

20Our soul hath waited for Jehovah, Our help and our shield <FI>is<Fi> He,

20Many are the afflictions of the just; but out of them all will the Lord deliver them.

21 For in him shall our heart rejoice, because we have confided in his holy name.

21For in Him doth our heart rejoice, For in His holy name we have trusted.

21The Lord keepeth all their bones, not one of them shall be broken.

22 Let thy loving-kindness, O Jehovah, be upon us, according as we have hoped in thee.

22Let Thy kindness, O Jehovah, be upon us, As we have waited for Thee!

22The death of the wicked is very evil: and they that hate the just shall be guilty.
