TakeH5375 the sumH7218 of the sonsH1121 of KohathH6955 from amongH8432 the sonsH1121 of LeviH3878, after their familiesH4940, by the houseH1004 of their fathersH1,
From thirtyH7970 yearsH8141 oldH1121 and upwardH4605 even until fiftyH2572 yearsH8141 oldH1121, all that enterH935 into the hostH6635, to doH6213 the workH4399 in the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150.
This shall be the serviceH5656 of the sonsH1121 of KohathH6955 in the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, about the mostH6944 holy thingsH6944:
And when the campH4264 setteth forwardH5265, AaronH175 shall comeH935, and his sonsH1121, and they shall take downH3381 the coveringH4539 vailH6532, and coverH3680 the arkH727 of testimonyH5715 with it:
And shall putH5414 thereon the coveringH3681 of badgers'H8476 skinsH5785, and shall spreadH6566 overH4605 it a clothH899 whollyH3632 of blueH8504, and shall putH7760 in the stavesH905 thereof.
And upon the tableH7979 of shewbreadH6440 they shall spreadH6566 a clothH899 of blueH8504, and putH5414 thereon the dishesH7086, and the spoonsH3709, and the bowlsH4518, and coversH7184 to cover withalH5262: and the continualH8548 breadH3899 shall be thereon: {cover…: or, pour out withal}
And they shall spreadH6566 upon them a clothH899 of scarletH8438+H8144, and coverH3680 the same with a coveringH4372 of badgers'H8476 skinsH5785, and shall putH7760 in the stavesH905 thereof.

And they shall putH5414 it and all the vesselsH3627 thereof within a coveringH4372 of badgers'H8476 skinsH5785, and shall putH5414 it upon a barH4132.
And upon the goldenH2091 altarH4196 they shall spreadH6566 a clothH899 of blueH8504, and coverH3680 it with a coveringH4372 of badgers'H8476 skinsH5785, and shall putH7760 to the stavesH905 thereof:

And they shall putH5414 upon it all the vesselsH3627 thereof, wherewith they ministerH8334 about it, even the censersH4289, the fleshhooksH4207, and the shovelsH3257, and the basonsH4219, all the vesselsH3627 of the altarH4196; and they shall spreadH6566 upon it a coveringH3681 of badgers'H8476 skinsH5785, and putH7760 to the stavesH905 of it. {basons: or, bowls}
And when AaronH175 and his sonsH1121 have made an endH3615 of coveringH3680 the sanctuaryH6944, and all the vesselsH3627 of the sanctuaryH6944, as the campH4264 is to set forwardH5265; afterH310 that, the sonsH1121 of KohathH6955 shall comeH935 to bearH5375 it: but they shall not touchH5060 any holy thingH6944, lest they dieH4191. These things are the burdenH4853 of the sonsH1121 of KohathH6955 in the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150.
And to the officeH6486 of EleazarH499 the sonH1121 of AaronH175 the priestH3548 pertaineth the oilH8081 for the lightH3974, and the sweetH5561 incenseH7004, and the dailyH8548 meat offeringH4503, and the anointingH4888 oilH8081, and the oversightH6486 of all the tabernacleH4908, and of all that therein is, in the sanctuaryH6944, and in the vesselsH3627 thereof.

Cut ye not offH3772 the tribeH7626 of the familiesH4940 of the KohathitesH6956 from amongH8432 the LevitesH3881:
But thus doH6213 unto them, that they may liveH2421, and not dieH4191, when they approachH5066 unto the mostH6944 holy thingsH6944: AaronH175 and his sonsH1121 shall go inH935, and appointH7760 them everyH376 oneH376 to his serviceH5656 and to his burdenH4853:
But they shall not go inH935 to seeH7200 when the holy thingsH6944 are coveredH1104, lest they dieH4191.
And the LORDH3068 spakeH1696 unto MosesH4872, sayingH559,
TakeH5375 also the sumH7218 of the sonsH1121 of GershonH1648, throughout the housesH1004 of their fathersH1, by their familiesH4940;
From thirtyH7970 yearsH8141 oldH1121 and upwardH4605 until fiftyH2572 yearsH8141 oldH1121 shalt thou numberH6485 them; all that enter inH935 to performH6633 the serviceH6635, to doH5647 the workH5656 in the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150. {to perform…: Heb. to war the warfare}
This is the serviceH5656 of the familiesH4940 of the GershonitesH1649, to serveH5647, and for burdensH4853: {burdens: or, carriage}
And they shall bearH5375 the curtainsH3407 of the tabernacleH4908, and the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, his coveringH4372, and the coveringH4372 of the badgers'H8476 skins that is aboveH4605 upon it, and the hangingH4539 for the doorH6607 of the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150,
And the hangingsH7050 of the courtH2691, and the hangingH4539 for the doorH6607 of the gateH8179 of the courtH2691, which is by the tabernacleH4908 and by the altarH4196 round aboutH5439, and their cordsH4340, and all the instrumentsH3627 of their serviceH5656, and all that is madeH6213 for them: so shall they serveH5647.

A PsalmH4210 of DavidH1732. I will singH7891 of mercyH2617 and judgmentH4941: unto thee, O LORDH3068, will I singH2167.
I will behave myself wiselyH7919 in a perfectH8549 wayH1870. O when wilt thou comeH935 unto me? I will walkH1980 withinH7130 my houseH1004 with a perfectH8537 heartH3824.
I will setH7896 no wickedH1100 thingH1697 before mine eyesH5869: I hateH8130 the workH6213 of them that turn asideH7750; it shall not cleaveH1692 to me. {wicked…: Heb. thing of Belial}
A frowardH6141 heartH3824 shall departH5493 from me: I will not knowH3045 a wickedH7451 person.
Whoso privilyH5643 slanderethH3960+H3960 his neighbourH7453, him will I cut offH6789: him that hath an highH1362 lookH5869 and a proudH7342 heartH3824 will not I sufferH3201.
Mine eyesH5869 shall be upon the faithfulH539 of the landH776, that they may dwellH3427 with me: he that walkethH1980 in a perfectH8549 wayH1870, he shall serveH8334 me. {in a…: or, perfect in the way}
He that workethH6213 deceitH7423 shall not dwellH3427 withinH7130 my houseH1004: he that tellethH1696 liesH8267 shall not tarryH3559 in my sightH5869. {shall not tarry: Heb. shall not be established}
I will earlyH1242 destroyH6789 all the wickedH7563 of the landH776; that I may cut offH3772 all wickedH205 doersH6466 from the cityH5892 of the LORDH3068.
To the chief MusicianH5329, A PsalmH4210 of DavidH1732. The heavensH8064 declareH5608 the gloryH3519 of GodH410; and the firmamentH7549 sheweth hisH5046 handyworkH4639+H3027.
DayH3117 unto dayH3117 utterethH5042 speechH562, and nightH3915 unto nightH3915 shewethH2331 knowledgeH1847.
There is no speechH562 nor languageH1697, where their voiceH6963 is not heardH8085. {where…: or, without these their voice is heard: Heb. without their voice heard}
Their lineH6957 is gone outH3318 through all the earthH776, and their wordsH4405 to the endH7097 of the worldH8398. In them hath he setH7760 a tabernacleH168 for the sunH8121, {line: or, rule, or, direction}
Which is as a bridegroomH2860 coming outH3318 of his chamberH2646, and rejoicethH7797 as a strong manH1368 to runH7323 a raceH734.
His going forthH4161 is from the endH7097 of the heavenH8064, and his circuitH8622 unto the endsH7098 of it: and there is nothing hidH5641 from the heatH2535 thereof.
The lawH8451 of the LORDH3068 is perfectH8549, convertingH7725 the soulH5315: the testimonyH5715 of the LORDH3068 is sureH539, making wiseH2449 the simpleH6612. {law: or, doctrine} {converting: or, restoring}
The statutesH6490 of the LORDH3068 are rightH3477, rejoicingH8055 the heartH3820: the commandmentH4687 of the LORDH3068 is pureH1249, enlighteningH215 the eyesH5869.
The fearH3374 of the LORDH3068 is cleanH2889, enduringH5975 for everH5703: the judgmentsH4941 of the LORDH3068 are trueH571 and righteousH6663 altogetherH3162. {true: Heb. truth}
More to be desiredH2530 are they than goldH2091, yea, than muchH7227 fine goldH6337: sweeterH4966 also than honeyH1706 and the honeycombH5317+H6688. {the honeycomb: Heb. the dropping of honeycombs}
Moreover by them is thy servantH5650 warnedH2094: and in keepingH8104 of them there is greatH7227 rewardH6118.
Who can understandH995 his errorsH7691? cleanseH5352 thou me from secretH5641 faults.
Keep backH2820 thy servantH5650 also from presumptuousH2086 sins; let them not have dominionH4910 over me: then shall I be uprightH8552, and I shall be innocentH5352 from the greatH7227 transgressionH6588. {the great: or, much}
Let the wordsH561 of my mouthH6310, and the meditationH1902 of my heartH3820, be acceptableH7522 in thy sightH6440, O LORDH3068, my strengthH6697, and my redeemerH1350. {strength: Heb. rock}
To the chief MusicianH5329, A PsalmH4210 of DavidH1732. The LORDH3068 hearH6030 thee in the dayH3117 of troubleH6869; the nameH8034 of the GodH430 of JacobH3290 defendH7682 thee; {defend…: Heb. set thee on an high place}
SendH7971 thee helpH5828 from the sanctuaryH6944, and strengthenH5582 thee out of ZionH6726; {thee help: Heb. thy help} {strengthen: Heb. support}
RememberH2142 all thy offeringsH4503, and acceptH1878 thy burnt sacrificeH5930; SelahH5542. {accept: Heb. turn to ashes: or, make fat}
GrantH5414 thee according to thine own heartH3824, and fulfilH4390 all thy counselH6098.
We will rejoiceH7442 in thy salvationH3444, and in the nameH8034 of our GodH430 we will set up our bannersH1713: the LORDH3068 fulfilH4390 all thy petitionsH4862.
Now knowH3045 I that the LORDH3068 savethH3467 his anointedH4899; he will hearH6030 him from his holyH6944 heavenH8064 with the savingH3468 strengthH1369 of his right handH3225. {his holy…: Heb. the heaven of his holiness} {with…: Heb. by the strength of the salvation of}
Some trust in chariotsH7393, and some in horsesH5483: but we will rememberH2142 the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 our GodH430.
They are brought downH3766 and fallenH5307: but we are risenH6965, and stand uprightH5749.
SaveH3467, LORDH3068: let the kingH4428 hearH6030 us whenH3117 we callH7121.
To the chief MusicianH5329, A PsalmH4210 of DavidH1732. The kingH4428 shall joyH8055 in thy strengthH5797, O LORDH3068; and in thy salvationH3444 how greatlyH3966 shall he rejoiceH1523!
Thou hast givenH5414 him his heart'sH3820 desireH8378, and hast not withholdenH4513 the requestH782 of his lipsH8193. SelahH5542.
For thou preventestH6923 him with the blessingsH1293 of goodnessH2896: thou settestH7896 a crownH5850 of pure goldH6337 on his headH7218.
He askedH7592 lifeH2416 of thee, and thou gavestH5414 it him, even lengthH753 of daysH3117 for everH5769 and everH5703.
His gloryH3519 is greatH1419 in thy salvationH3444: honourH1935 and majestyH1926 hast thou laidH7737 upon him.
For thou hast madeH7896 him most blessedH1293 for everH5703: thou hast madeH2302 him exceeding gladH8057 with thy countenanceH6440. {made him most…: Heb. set him to be blessings} {made him exceeding…: Heb. make him glad with joy}
For the kingH4428 trustethH982 in the LORDH3068, and through the mercyH2617 of the most HighH5945 he shall not be movedH4131.
Thine handH3027 shall find outH4672 all thine enemiesH341: thy right handH3225 shall find outH4672 those that hateH8130 thee.
Thou shalt makeH7896 them as a fieryH784 ovenH8574 in the timeH6256 of thine angerH6440: the LORDH3068 shall swallow them upH1104 in his wrathH639, and the fireH784 shall devourH398 them.
Their fruitH6529 shalt thou destroyH6 from the earthH776, and their seedH2233 from among the childrenH1121 of menH120.
For they intendedH5186 evilH7451 against thee: they imaginedH2803 a mischievous deviceH4209, which they are not ableH3201 to perform.
Therefore shalt thou makeH7896 them turn their backH7926, when thou shalt make readyH3559 thine arrows upon thy stringsH4340 against the faceH6440 of them. {shalt thou…: or, thou shalt set them as a butt} {back: Heb. shoulder}
Be thou exaltedH7311, LORDH3068, in thine own strengthH5797: so will we singH7891 and praiseH2167 thy powerH1369.
To the chief MusicianH5329 upon AijelethH365 ShaharH7837, A PsalmH4210 of DavidH1732. My GodH410, my GodH410, why hast thou forsakenH5800 me? why art thou so farH7350 from helpingH3444 me, and from the wordsH1697 of my roaringH7581? {Aijeleth…: or, the hind of the morning} {helping…: Heb. my salvation}
O my GodH430, I cryH7121 in the daytimeH3119, but thou hearestH6030 not; and in the night seasonH3915, and am not silentH1747. {am…: Heb. there is no silence to me}
But thou art holyH6918, O thou that inhabitestH3427 the praisesH8416 of IsraelH3478.
Our fathersH1 trustedH982 in thee: they trustedH982, and thou didst deliverH6403 them.
They criedH2199 unto thee, and were deliveredH4422: they trustedH982 in thee, and were not confoundedH954.
But I am a wormH8438, and no manH376; a reproachH2781 of menH120, and despisedH959 of the peopleH5971.
All they that seeH7200 me laugh me to scornH3932: they shoot outH6358 the lipH8193, they shakeH5128 the headH7218, saying, {shoot…: Heb. open}
He trustedH1556 on the LORDH3068 that he would deliverH6403 him: let him deliverH5337 him, seeing he delightedH2654 in him. {He trusted…: Heb. He rolled himself on} {seeing…: or, if he delight in}
But thou art he that tookH1518 me out of the wombH990: thou didst make me hopeH982 when I was upon my mother'sH517 breastsH7699. {didst…: or, kept me in safety}
I was castH7993 upon thee from the wombH7358: thou art my GodH410 from my mother'sH517 bellyH990.
Be not farH7368 from me; for troubleH6869 is nearH7138; for there is none to helpH5826. {none…: Heb. not a helper}
ManyH7227 bullsH6499 have compassedH5437 me: strongH47 bulls of BashanH1316 have beset me roundH3803.
They gapedH6475 upon me with their mouthsH6310, as a raveningH2963 and a roaringH7580 lionH738. {gaped…: Heb. opened their mouths against me}
I am poured outH8210 like waterH4325, and all my bonesH6106 are out of jointH6504: my heartH3820 is like waxH1749; it is meltedH4549 in the midstH8432 of my bowelsH4578. {out of…: or, sundered}
My strengthH3581 is dried upH3001 like a potsherdH2789; and my tongueH3956 cleavethH1692 to my jawsH4455; and thou hast broughtH8239 me into the dustH6083 of deathH4194.
For dogsH3611 have compassedH5437 me: the assemblyH5712 of the wickedH7489 have inclosedH5362 me: they piercedH3738+H738 my handsH3027 and my feetH7272.
I may tellH5608 all my bonesH6106: they lookH5027 and stareH7200 upon me.
They partH2505 my garmentsH899 among them, and castH5307 lotsH1486 upon my vestureH3830.
But be not thou farH7368 from me, O LORDH3068: O my strengthH360, hasteH2363 thee to helpH5833 me.
DeliverH5337 my soulH5315 from the swordH2719; my darlingH3173 from the powerH3027 of the dogH3611. {my darling: Heb. my only one} {power: Heb. hand}
SaveH3467 me from the lion'sH738 mouthH6310: for thou hast heardH6030 me from the hornsH7161 of the unicornsH7214.
I will declareH5608 thy nameH8034 unto my brethrenH251: in the midstH8432 of the congregationH6951 will I praiseH1984 thee.
Ye that fearH3373 the LORDH3068, praiseH1984 him; all ye the seedH2233 of JacobH3290, glorifyH3513 him; and fearH1481 him, all ye the seedH2233 of IsraelH3478.
For he hath not despisedH959 nor abhorredH8262 the afflictionH6039 of the afflictedH6041; neither hath he hidH5641 his faceH6440 from him; but when he criedH7768 unto him, he heardH8085.
My praiseH8416 shall be of thee in the greatH7227 congregationH6951: I will payH7999 my vowsH5088 before them that fearH3373 him.
The meekH6035 shall eatH398 and be satisfiedH7646: they shall praiseH1984 the LORDH3068 that seekH1875 him: your heartH3824 shall liveH2421 for everH5703.
All the endsH657 of the worldH776 shall rememberH2142 and turnH7725 unto the LORDH3068: and all the kindredsH4940 of the nationsH1471 shall worshipH7812 beforeH6440 thee.
For the kingdomH4410 is the LORD'SH3068: and he is the governorH4910 among the nationsH1471.
All they that be fatH1879 upon earthH776 shall eatH398 and worshipH7812: all they that go downH3381 to the dustH6083 shall bowH3766 beforeH6440 him: and none can keep aliveH2421 his own soulH5315.
A seedH2233 shall serveH5647 him; it shall be accountedH5608 to the LordH136 for a generationH1755.
They shall comeH935, and shall declareH5046 his righteousnessH6666 unto a peopleH5971 that shall be bornH3205, that he hath doneH6213 this.
To the chief MusicianH5329, A PsalmH4210 of DavidH1732. The heavensH8064 declareH5608 the gloryH3519 of GodH410; and the firmamentH7549 sheweth hisH5046 handyworkH4639+H3027.
DayH3117 unto dayH3117 utterethH5042 speechH562, and nightH3915 unto nightH3915 shewethH2331 knowledgeH1847.
There is no speechH562 nor languageH1697, where their voiceH6963 is not heardH8085. {where…: or, without these their voice is heard: Heb. without their voice heard}
Their lineH6957 is gone outH3318 through all the earthH776, and their wordsH4405 to the endH7097 of the worldH8398. In them hath he setH7760 a tabernacleH168 for the sunH8121, {line: or, rule, or, direction}
Which is as a bridegroomH2860 coming outH3318 of his chamberH2646, and rejoicethH7797 as a strong manH1368 to runH7323 a raceH734.
His going forthH4161 is from the endH7097 of the heavenH8064, and his circuitH8622 unto the endsH7098 of it: and there is nothing hidH5641 from the heatH2535 thereof.
The lawH8451 of the LORDH3068 is perfectH8549, convertingH7725 the soulH5315: the testimonyH5715 of the LORDH3068 is sureH539, making wiseH2449 the simpleH6612. {law: or, doctrine} {converting: or, restoring}
The statutesH6490 of the LORDH3068 are rightH3477, rejoicingH8055 the heartH3820: the commandmentH4687 of the LORDH3068 is pureH1249, enlighteningH215 the eyesH5869.
The fearH3374 of the LORDH3068 is cleanH2889, enduringH5975 for everH5703: the judgmentsH4941 of the LORDH3068 are trueH571 and righteousH6663 altogetherH3162. {true: Heb. truth}
More to be desiredH2530 are they than goldH2091, yea, than muchH7227 fine goldH6337: sweeterH4966 also than honeyH1706 and the honeycombH5317+H6688. {the honeycomb: Heb. the dropping of honeycombs}
Moreover by them is thy servantH5650 warnedH2094: and in keepingH8104 of them there is greatH7227 rewardH6118.
Who can understandH995 his errorsH7691? cleanseH5352 thou me from secretH5641 faults.
Keep backH2820 thy servantH5650 also from presumptuousH2086 sins; let them not have dominionH4910 over me: then shall I be uprightH8552, and I shall be innocentH5352 from the greatH7227 transgressionH6588. {the great: or, much}
Let the wordsH561 of my mouthH6310, and the meditationH1902 of my heartH3820, be acceptableH7522 in thy sightH6440, O LORDH3068, my strengthH6697, and my redeemerH1350. {strength: Heb. rock}
To the chief MusicianH5329, A PsalmH4210 of DavidH1732. The LORDH3068 hearH6030 thee in the dayH3117 of troubleH6869; the nameH8034 of the GodH430 of JacobH3290 defendH7682 thee; {defend…: Heb. set thee on an high place}
SendH7971 thee helpH5828 from the sanctuaryH6944, and strengthenH5582 thee out of ZionH6726; {thee help: Heb. thy help} {strengthen: Heb. support}
RememberH2142 all thy offeringsH4503, and acceptH1878 thy burnt sacrificeH5930; SelahH5542. {accept: Heb. turn to ashes: or, make fat}
GrantH5414 thee according to thine own heartH3824, and fulfilH4390 all thy counselH6098.
We will rejoiceH7442 in thy salvationH3444, and in the nameH8034 of our GodH430 we will set up our bannersH1713: the LORDH3068 fulfilH4390 all thy petitionsH4862.
Now knowH3045 I that the LORDH3068 savethH3467 his anointedH4899; he will hearH6030 him from his holyH6944 heavenH8064 with the savingH3468 strengthH1369 of his right handH3225. {his holy…: Heb. the heaven of his holiness} {with…: Heb. by the strength of the salvation of}
Some trust in chariotsH7393, and some in horsesH5483: but we will rememberH2142 the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 our GodH430.
They are brought downH3766 and fallenH5307: but we are risenH6965, and stand uprightH5749.
SaveH3467, LORDH3068: let the kingH4428 hearH6030 us whenH3117 we callH7121.
To the chief MusicianH5329, A PsalmH4210 of DavidH1732. The kingH4428 shall joyH8055 in thy strengthH5797, O LORDH3068; and in thy salvationH3444 how greatlyH3966 shall he rejoiceH1523!
Thou hast givenH5414 him his heart'sH3820 desireH8378, and hast not withholdenH4513 the requestH782 of his lipsH8193. SelahH5542.
For thou preventestH6923 him with the blessingsH1293 of goodnessH2896: thou settestH7896 a crownH5850 of pure goldH6337 on his headH7218.
He askedH7592 lifeH2416 of thee, and thou gavestH5414 it him, even lengthH753 of daysH3117 for everH5769 and everH5703.
His gloryH3519 is greatH1419 in thy salvationH3444: honourH1935 and majestyH1926 hast thou laidH7737 upon him.
For thou hast madeH7896 him most blessedH1293 for everH5703: thou hast madeH2302 him exceeding gladH8057 with thy countenanceH6440. {made him most…: Heb. set him to be blessings} {made him exceeding…: Heb. make him glad with joy}
For the kingH4428 trustethH982 in the LORDH3068, and through the mercyH2617 of the most HighH5945 he shall not be movedH4131.
Thine handH3027 shall find outH4672 all thine enemiesH341: thy right handH3225 shall find outH4672 those that hateH8130 thee.
Thou shalt makeH7896 them as a fieryH784 ovenH8574 in the timeH6256 of thine angerH6440: the LORDH3068 shall swallow them upH1104 in his wrathH639, and the fireH784 shall devourH398 them.
Their fruitH6529 shalt thou destroyH6 from the earthH776, and their seedH2233 from among the childrenH1121 of menH120.
For they intendedH5186 evilH7451 against thee: they imaginedH2803 a mischievous deviceH4209, which they are not ableH3201 to perform.
Therefore shalt thou makeH7896 them turn their backH7926, when thou shalt make readyH3559 thine arrows upon thy stringsH4340 against the faceH6440 of them. {shalt thou…: or, thou shalt set them as a butt} {back: Heb. shoulder}
Be thou exaltedH7311, LORDH3068, in thine own strengthH5797: so will we singH7891 and praiseH2167 thy powerH1369.
To the chief MusicianH5329 upon AijelethH365 ShaharH7837, A PsalmH4210 of DavidH1732. My GodH410, my GodH410, why hast thou forsakenH5800 me? why art thou so farH7350 from helpingH3444 me, and from the wordsH1697 of my roaringH7581? {Aijeleth…: or, the hind of the morning} {helping…: Heb. my salvation}
O my GodH430, I cryH7121 in the daytimeH3119, but thou hearestH6030 not; and in the night seasonH3915, and am not silentH1747. {am…: Heb. there is no silence to me}
But thou art holyH6918, O thou that inhabitestH3427 the praisesH8416 of IsraelH3478.
Our fathersH1 trustedH982 in thee: they trustedH982, and thou didst deliverH6403 them.
They criedH2199 unto thee, and were deliveredH4422: they trustedH982 in thee, and were not confoundedH954.
But I am a wormH8438, and no manH376; a reproachH2781 of menH120, and despisedH959 of the peopleH5971.
All they that seeH7200 me laugh me to scornH3932: they shoot outH6358 the lipH8193, they shakeH5128 the headH7218, saying, {shoot…: Heb. open}
He trustedH1556 on the LORDH3068 that he would deliverH6403 him: let him deliverH5337 him, seeing he delightedH2654 in him. {He trusted…: Heb. He rolled himself on} {seeing…: or, if he delight in}
But thou art he that tookH1518 me out of the wombH990: thou didst make me hopeH982 when I was upon my mother'sH517 breastsH7699. {didst…: or, kept me in safety}
I was castH7993 upon thee from the wombH7358: thou art my GodH410 from my mother'sH517 bellyH990.
Be not farH7368 from me; for troubleH6869 is nearH7138; for there is none to helpH5826. {none…: Heb. not a helper}
ManyH7227 bullsH6499 have compassedH5437 me: strongH47 bulls of BashanH1316 have beset me roundH3803.
They gapedH6475 upon me with their mouthsH6310, as a raveningH2963 and a roaringH7580 lionH738. {gaped…: Heb. opened their mouths against me}
I am poured outH8210 like waterH4325, and all my bonesH6106 are out of jointH6504: my heartH3820 is like waxH1749; it is meltedH4549 in the midstH8432 of my bowelsH4578. {out of…: or, sundered}
My strengthH3581 is dried upH3001 like a potsherdH2789; and my tongueH3956 cleavethH1692 to my jawsH4455; and thou hast broughtH8239 me into the dustH6083 of deathH4194.
For dogsH3611 have compassedH5437 me: the assemblyH5712 of the wickedH7489 have inclosedH5362 me: they piercedH3738+H738 my handsH3027 and my feetH7272.
I may tellH5608 all my bonesH6106: they lookH5027 and stareH7200 upon me.
They partH2505 my garmentsH899 among them, and castH5307 lotsH1486 upon my vestureH3830.
But be not thou farH7368 from me, O LORDH3068: O my strengthH360, hasteH2363 thee to helpH5833 me.
DeliverH5337 my soulH5315 from the swordH2719; my darlingH3173 from the powerH3027 of the dogH3611. {my darling: Heb. my only one} {power: Heb. hand}
SaveH3467 me from the lion'sH738 mouthH6310: for thou hast heardH6030 me from the hornsH7161 of the unicornsH7214.
I will declareH5608 thy nameH8034 unto my brethrenH251: in the midstH8432 of the congregationH6951 will I praiseH1984 thee.
Ye that fearH3373 the LORDH3068, praiseH1984 him; all ye the seedH2233 of JacobH3290, glorifyH3513 him; and fearH1481 him, all ye the seedH2233 of IsraelH3478.
For he hath not despisedH959 nor abhorredH8262 the afflictionH6039 of the afflictedH6041; neither hath he hidH5641 his faceH6440 from him; but when he criedH7768 unto him, he heardH8085.
My praiseH8416 shall be of thee in the greatH7227 congregationH6951: I will payH7999 my vowsH5088 before them that fearH3373 him.
The meekH6035 shall eatH398 and be satisfiedH7646: they shall praiseH1984 the LORDH3068 that seekH1875 him: your heartH3824 shall liveH2421 for everH5703.
All the endsH657 of the worldH776 shall rememberH2142 and turnH7725 unto the LORDH3068: and all the kindredsH4940 of the nationsH1471 shall worshipH7812 beforeH6440 thee.
For the kingdomH4410 is the LORD'SH3068: and he is the governorH4910 among the nationsH1471.
All they that be fatH1879 upon earthH776 shall eatH398 and worshipH7812: all they that go downH3381 to the dustH6083 shall bowH3766 beforeH6440 him: and none can keep aliveH2421 his own soulH5315.
A seedH2233 shall serveH5647 him; it shall be accountedH5608 to the LordH136 for a generationH1755.

We will rejoiceH7442 in thy salvationH3444, and in the nameH8034 of our GodH430 we will set up our bannersH1713: the LORDH3068 fulfilH4390 all thy petitionsH4862.

To the chief MusicianH5329, A PsalmH4210 of DavidH1732. The kingH4428 shall joyH8055 in thy strengthH5797, O LORDH3068; and in thy salvationH3444 how greatlyH3966 shall he rejoiceH1523!
Thou hast givenH5414 him his heart'sH3820 desireH8378, and hast not withholdenH4513 the requestH782 of his lipsH8193. SelahH5542.
For thou preventestH6923 him with the blessingsH1293 of goodnessH2896: thou settestH7896 a crownH5850 of pure goldH6337 on his headH7218.

For the kingH4428 trustethH982 in the LORDH3068, and through the mercyH2617 of the most HighH5945 he shall not be movedH4131.
