1 I will sing of the loving-kindness of Jehovah for ever; with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness from generation to generation.
1A prayer of Moses the man of God. Lord, thou hast been our refuge from generation to generation.
2 For I said, Loving-kindness shall be built up for ever; in the very heavens wilt thou establish thy faithfulness.
2Before the mountains were made, or the earth and the world was formed; from eternity and to eternity thou art God.
3 I have made a covenant with mine elect, I have sworn unto David my servant:
3Turn not man away to be brought low: and thou hast said: Be converted, O ye sons of men.
4 Thy seed will I establish for ever, and build up thy throne from generation to generation. Selah.
4For a thousand years in thy sight are as yesterday, which is past. And as a watch in the night,
5 And the heavens shall celebrate thy wonders, O Jehovah, and thy faithfulness in the congregation of the saints.
5Things that are counted nothing, shall their years be.
6 For who in the heaven can be compared to Jehovah? [who] among the sons of the mighty shall be likened to Jehovah?
6In the morning man shall grow up like grass; in the morning he shall flourish and pass away: in the evening he shall fall, grow dry, and wither.
7 God is greatly to be feared in the council of the saints, and terrible for all that are round about him.
7For in thy wrath we have fainted away: and are troubled in thy indignation.
8 Jehovah,God of hosts, who is like unto thee, the strong Jah? And thy faithfulness is round about thee.
8Thou hast set our iniquities before thy eyes: our life in the light of thy countenance.
9 Thou rulest the pride of the sea: when its waves arise, thou stillest them.
9For all our days are spent; and in thy wrath we have fainted away. Our years shall be considered as a spider:
10 Thou hast crushed Rahab as one that is slain; thou hast scattered thine enemies with the arm of thy strength.
10The days of our years in them are threescore and ten years. But if in the strong they be fourscore years: and what is more of them is labour and sorrow. For mildness is come upon us: and we shall be corrected.
11 Thine are the heavens, the earth also is thine; the world and its fulness, thou hast founded them.
11Who knoweth the power of thy anger, and for thy fear
12 The north and the south, thou hast created them: Tabor and Hermon triumph in thy name.
12Can number thy wrath? So make thy right hand known: and men learned in heart, in wisdom.
13 Thine is the arm of might: strong is thy hand, high is thy right hand.
13Return, O Lord, how long? and be entreated in favour of thy servants.
14 Righteousness and judgment are the foundation of thy throne; loving-kindness and truth go before thy face.
14We are filled in the morning with thy mercy: and we have rejoiced, and are delighted all our days.
15 Blessed is the people that know the shout of joy: they walk, O Jehovah, in the light of thy countenance.
15We have rejoiced for the days in which thou hast humbled us: for the years in which we have seen evils.
16 In thy name are they joyful all the day, and in thy righteousness are they exalted.
16Look upon thy servants and upon their works: and direct their children.
17 For thou art the glory of their strength; and in thy favour our horn shall be exalted.
17And let the brightness of the Lord our God be upon us: and direct thou the works of our hands over us; yea, the work of our hands do thou direct.
19 Then thou spakest in vision of thy Holy One, and saidst, I have laid help upon a mighty one; I have exalted one chosen out of the people.

21 With whom my hand shall be established; and mine arm shall strengthen him.
21(not in this translation)
22 No enemy shall exact upon him, nor the son of wickedness afflict him;
22(not in this translation)
23 But I will beat down his adversaries before his face, and will smite them that hate him.
23(not in this translation)
24 And my faithfulness and my loving-kindness shall be with him, and by my name shall his horn be exalted.
24(not in this translation)
25 And I will set his hand in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.
25(not in this translation)
26 He shall call unto me, Thou art my father, myGod, and the rock of my salvation;
26(not in this translation)
27 And as to me, I will make him firstborn, the highest of the kings of the earth.
27(not in this translation)
28 My loving-kindness will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him;
28(not in this translation)
29 And I will establish his seed for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.
29(not in this translation)
32 Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.
32(not in this translation)
33 Nevertheless my loving-kindness will I not utterly take from him, nor belie my faithfulness;
33(not in this translation)
34 My covenant will I not profane, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.
34(not in this translation)
37 It shall be established for ever as the moon, and the witness in the sky is firm. Selah.
37(not in this translation)
38 But thou hast rejected and cast off; thou hast been very wroth with thine anointed:
38(not in this translation)
39 Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant; thou hast profaned his crown to the ground:
39(not in this translation)

40(not in this translation)
41 All that pass by the way plunder him; he is become a reproach to his neighbours.

43 Yea, thou hast turned back the edge of his sword, and hast not made him stand in the battle.
43(not in this translation)
44 Thou hast made his brightness to cease, and cast his throne down to the ground;
44(not in this translation)
45 The days of his youth hast thou shortened; thou hast covered him with shame. Selah.
45(not in this translation)
46 How long, Jehovah, wilt thou hide thyself for ever? shall thy fury burn like fire?
46(not in this translation)
47 Remember, as regards me, what life is. Wherefore hast thou created all the children of men to be vanity?
47(not in this translation)
48 What man liveth, and shall not see death? Shall he deliver his soul from the power of Sheol? Selah.
48(not in this translation)
49 Where, Lord, are thy former loving-kindnesses, [which] thou swarest unto David in thy faithfulness?
49(not in this translation)
50 Remember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants — that I bear in my bosom [that of] all the mighty peoples —
