Psalms Chapter 108
1 (A Song or Psalm of David.) O God, my heart is fixed; I will sing and
give praise, even with my glory.
2 Awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.
3 I will praise thee, O LORD, among the people: and I will sing praises
unto thee among the nations.
4 For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth reacheth unto
the clouds.
5 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory above all the earth;
6 That thy beloved may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and
answer me.
7 God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide
Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.
8 Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine
head; Judah is my lawgiver;
9 Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe; over Philistia
will I triumph.
10 Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?
11 Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God,
go forth with our hosts?
12 Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.
13 Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down
our enemies.
Psalms Chapter 109
1 (To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.) Hold not thy peace, O God
of my praise;
2 For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me: they have spoken against me with a lying tongue.
3 They compassed me about also with words of hatred; and fought against
me without a cause.
4 For my love they are my adversaries: but I give myself unto prayer.
5 And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.
6 Set thou a wicked man over him: and let Satan stand at his right hand.
7 When he shall be judged, let him be condemned: and let his prayer
become sin.
8 Let his days be few; and let another take his office.
9 Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.
10 Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them seek
their bread also out of their desolate places.
11 Let the extortioner catch all that he hath; and let the strangers
spoil his labour.
12 Let there be none to extend mercy unto him: neither let there be any
to favour his fatherless children.
13 Let his posterity be cut off; and in the generation following let
their name be blotted out.
14 Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with the LORD; and let
not the sin of his mother be blotted out.
15 Let them be before the LORD continually, that he may cut off the
memory of them from the earth.
16 Because that he remembered not to shew mercy, but persecuted the poor
and needy man, that he might even slay the broken in heart.
17 As he loved cursing, so let it come unto him: as he delighted not in blessing, so let it be far from him.
18 As he clothed himself with cursing like as with his garment, so let
it come into his bowels like water, and like oil into his bones.
19 Let it be unto him as the garment which covereth him, and for a
girdle wherewith he is girded continually.
20 Let this be the reward of mine adversaries from the LORD, and of them
that speak evil against my soul.
21 But do thou for me, O GOD the Lord, for thy name's sake: because thy
mercy is good, deliver thou me.
22 For I am poor and needy, and my heart is wounded within me.
23 I am gone like the shadow when it declineth: I am tossed up and down
as the locust.
24 My knees are weak through fasting; and my flesh faileth of fatness.
25 I became also a reproach unto them: when they looked upon me they
shaked their heads.
26 Help me, O LORD my God: O save me according to thy mercy:
27 That they may know that this is thy hand; that thou, LORD, hast done it.
28 Let them curse, but bless thou: when they arise, let them be ashamed;
but let thy servant rejoice.
29 Let mine adversaries be clothed with shame, and let them cover
themselves with their own confusion, as with a mantle.
30 I will greatly praise the LORD with my mouth; yea, I will praise him
among the multitude.
31 For he shall stand at the right hand of the poor, to save him from
those that condemn his soul.
Psalms Chapter 110
1 (A Psalm of David.) The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right
hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.
2 The LORD shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in
the midst of thine enemies.
3 Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties
of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth.
4 The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever
after the order of Melchizedek.
5 The Lord at thy right hand shall strike through kings in the day of
his wrath.
6 He shall judge among the heathen, he shall fill the places with the
dead bodies; he shall wound the heads over many countries.
7 He shall drink of the brook in the way: therefore shall he lift up the
head.
Psalms Chapter 111
1 Praise ye the LORD. I will praise the LORD with my whole heart, in the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation.
2 The works of the LORD are great, sought out of all them that have
pleasure therein.
3 His work is honourable and glorious: and his righteousness endureth
for ever.
4 He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: the LORD is
gracious and full of compassion.
5 He hath given meat unto them that fear him: he will ever be mindful of
his covenant.
6 He hath shewed his people the power of his works, that he may give
them the heritage of the heathen.
7 The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all his commandments
are sure.
8 They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and uprightness.
9 He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for
ever: holy and reverend is his name.
10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding
have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever.
Psalms Chapter 112
1 Praise ye the LORD. Blessed is the man that feareth the LORD, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.
2 His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the upright
shall be blessed.
3 Wealth and riches shall be in his house: and his righteousness
endureth for ever.
4 Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: he is gracious,
and full of compassion, and righteous.
5 A good man sheweth favour, and lendeth: he will guide his affairs with discretion.
6 Surely he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in
everlasting remembrance.
7 He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting
in the LORD.
8 His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see his
desire upon his enemies.
9 He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor; his righteousness
endureth for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honour.
10 The wicked shall see it, and be grieved; he shall gnash with his
teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.
Psalms Chapter 113
1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise, O ye servants of the LORD, praise the name
of the LORD.
2 Blessed be the name of the LORD from this time forth and for evermore.
3 From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the LORD'S
name is to be praised.
4 The LORD is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens.
5 Who is like unto the LORD our God, who dwelleth on high,
6 Who humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in
the earth!
7 He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth the needy out of
the dunghill;
8 That he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people.
9 He maketh the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children. Praise ye the LORD.
Psalms Chapter 114
1 When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of
strange language;
2 Judah was his sanctuary, and Israel his dominion.
3 The sea saw it, and fled: Jordan was driven back.
4 The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs.
5 What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that
thou wast driven back?
6 Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams; and ye little hills, like lambs?
7 Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of
the God of Jacob;
8 Which turned the rock into a standing water, the flint into a fountain
of waters.
