The Lord is on my side; I will not fear:
What can man do unto me?

It is better to trust in the Lord
Than to put confidence in man.

It is better to trust in the Lord
Than to put confidence in princes.
The Lord is my strength and song;

And he is become my salvation,

The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the righteous:

The right hand of the Lord doeth valiantly.

The right hand of the Lord is exalted :

The right hand of the Lord doeth valiantly.

I shall not die, but live,

And declare the works of the Lord.

The Lord hath chastened me sore:

But he hath not given me over unto death.

Open to me the gates of righteousness:

I will enter into them, I will give thanks unto the Lord.
This is the gate of the Lord;

The righteous shall enter into it.

I will give thanks unto thee, for thou hast answered me,
And art become my salvation.

The stone which the builders rejected

Is become the head of the corner.

This is the Lord's doing;

It is marvellous in our eyes.

This is the day which the Lord hath made;

We will rejoice and be glad in it.

Save now, we beseech thee, O Lord:

O Lord, we beseech thee, send now prosperity. Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the Lord: We have blessed you out of the house of the Lord.

PSALM CXIX.

Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way?

By taking heed thereto according to thy word.
With my whole heart have I sought thee:

O let me not wander from thy commandments.
Thy word have I laid up in mine heart,
That I might not sin against thee.

Blessed art thou, O Lord:

Teach me thy statutes. With my lips have I declared

All the judgements of thy mouth.

I have rejoiced in the way of thy testimonies,

As much as in all riches.

I will meditate in thy precepts,

And have respect unto thy ways.

I will delight myself in thy statutes:

I will not forget thy word.

Deal bountifully with thy servant, that I may live ;

So will I observe thy word.

Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold
Wondrous things out of thy law.

I am a sojourner in the earth:

Hide not thy commandments from me.
My soul breaketh for the longing

That it hath unto thy judgements at all times.
Thou hast rebuked the proud that are cursed,
Which do wander from thy commandments.

Take away from me reproach and contempt;
For I have kept thy testimonies.

Teach me, O Lord, the way of thy statutes;
And I shall keep it unto the end.

Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law;
Yea, I shall observe it with my whole heart.

Make me to go in the path of thy commandments;

For therein do I delight.

Incline my heart unto thy testimonies,

And not to covetousness.

Turn away mine eyes from beholding vanity,

And quicken me in thy ways.

Confirm thy word unto thy servant,

Which belongeth unto the fear of thee.

Turn away my reproach whereof I am afraid;
For thy judgements are good.

Behold, I have longed after thy precepts:
Quicken me in thy righteousness.

Thou hast dealt well with thy servant,
O Lord, according unto thy word.

Teach me good judgement and knowledge;
For I have believed in thy commandments.
Before I was afflicted I went astray;
But now I observe thy word.

Thou art good, and doest good;

Teach me thy statutes.

It is good for me that I have been afflicted;
That I might learn thy statutes.

The law of thy mouth is better unto me
Than thousands of gold and silver.

Thy hands have made me and fashioned me:

Give me understanding, that I may learn thy command

ments.

They that fear thee shall see me and be glad;
Because I have hoped in thy word.

I know, O Lord, that thy judgements are righteous,
And that in faithfulness thou hast afflicted me.

Let, I pray thee, thy lovingkindness be for my comfort,
According to thy word unto thy servant.

Let thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may

For thy law is my delight.

live:

Let the proud be ashamed; for they have overthrown me wrongfully:

But I will meditate in thy precepts.

Let those that fear thee turn unto me,
And they shall know thy testimonies.

Let my heart be perfect in thy statutes;
That I be not ashamed.

For ever, O Lord,

Thy word is settled in heaven.

Thy faithfulness is unto all generations:

Thou hast established the earth, and it abideth. They abide this day according to thine ordinances; For all things are thy servants.

Unless thy law had been my delight,

I should then have perished in mine affliction.

I will never forget thy precepts;

For with them thou hast quickened me.

I am thine, save me;

For I have sought thy precepts.

The wicked have waited for me to destroy me;
But I will consider thy testimonies.

I have seen an end of all perfection;

But thy commandment is exceeding broad.

Oh how I love thy law!

It is my meditation all the day.

Thy commandments make me wiser than mine enemies;
For they are ever with me.

I have more understanding than all my teachers ;
For thy testimonies are my meditation.

I understand more than the aged,
Because I have kept thy precepts.

I have refrained my feet from every evil way,

That I might observe thy word.

I have not turned aside from thy judgements;
For thou hast taught me.

How sweet are thy words unto my taste!

Yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth!
Through thy precepts I get understanding:
Therefore I hate every false way.

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet,
And light unto my path.

I have sworn, and have confirmed it,

That I will observe thy righteous judgements.

I am afflicted very much:

Quicken me, O Lord, according unto thy word.

Accept, I beseech thee, the freewill offerings of my mouth, O

Lord,

And teach me thy judgements.

My soul is continually in my hand;

Yet do I not forget thy law.

The wicked have laid a snare for me;

Yet went I not astray from thy precepts.

Thy testimonies have I taken as an heritage for ever;
For they are the rejoicing of my heart.

I have inclined mind heart to perform thy statutes,
For ever, even unto the end.

PSALM CXXI.

I will lift up mine eyes unto the mountains:
From whence shall my help come?

My help cometh from the Lord,
Which made heaven and earth.

He will not suffer thy foot to be moved:
He that keepeth thee will not slumber.
