Psm 69:1 <To the chief music-maker; put to Shoshannim. Of David.> Be my saviour, O God; because the waters have come in, even to my neck.
Psm 69:2 My feet are deep in the soft earth, where there is no support; I have come into deep waters, the waves are flowing over me.
Psm 69:3 I am tired with my crying; my throat is burning: my eyes are wasted with waiting for my God.
Psm 69:4 Those who have hate for me without cause are greater in number than the hairs of my head; those who are against me, falsely desiring my destruction, are very strong; I gave back what I had not taken away.
Psm 69:5 O God, you see how foolish I am; and my wrongdoing is clear to you.
Psm 69:6 Let not those who have hope in you be put to shame because of me, O Lord God of armies: let not those who are waiting for you be made low because of me, O God of Israel.
Psm 69:7 I have been wounded with sharp words because of you; my face has been covered with shame.
Psm 69:8 I have become strange to my brothers, and like a man from a far country to my mother’s children.
Psm 69:9 I am on fire with passion for your house; and the hard things which are said about you have come on me.
Psm 69:10 My bitter weeping, and my going without food, were turned to my shame.
Psm 69:11 When I put on the clothing of grief, they said evil of me.
Psm 69:12 I am a cause of wonder to those in authority; a song to those who are given to strong drink.
Psm 69:13 But as for me, let my prayer be made to you, O Lord, at a time when you are pleased; O God, give me an answer in your great mercy, for your salvation is certain.
Psm 69:14 Take me from the grip of the sticky earth, so that I may not go down into it; let me be lifted up from the deep waters.
Psm 69:15 Let me not be covered by the flowing waters; let not the deep waters go over my head, and let me not be shut up in the underworld.
Psm 69:16 Give an answer to my words, O Lord; for your mercy is good: be turned to me, because of your great pity.
Psm 69:17 Let not your face be covered from your servant, for I am in trouble; quickly give me an answer.
Psm 69:18 Come near to my soul, for its salvation: be my saviour, because of those who are against me.
Psm 69:19 You have seen my shame, how I was laughed at and made low; my haters are all before you.
Psm 69:20 My heart is broken by bitter words, I am full of grief; I made a search for some to have pity on me, but there was no one; I had no comforter.
Psm 69:21 They gave me poison for my food; and bitter wine for my drink.
Psm 69:22 Let their table before them be for their destruction; let their feasts become a net to take them.
Psm 69:23 Let their eyes be blind so that they may not see; let their bodies for ever be shaking.
Psm 69:24 Let your curse come on them; let the heat of your wrath overtake them.
Psm 69:25 Give their houses to destruction, and let there be no one in their tents.
Psm 69:26 Because they are cruel to him against whom your hand is turned; they make bitter the grief of him who is wounded by you.
Psm 69:27 Let their punishment be increased; let them not come into your righteousness.
Psm 69:28 Let their names be taken from the book of the living, let them not be numbered with the upright.
Psm 69:29 But I am poor and full of sorrow; let me be lifted up by your salvation, O Lord.
Psm 69:30 I will give praise to the name of God with a song; I will give glory to him for what he has done.
Psm 69:31 This will be more pleasing to the Lord than an ox, or a young ox of full growth.
Psm 69:32 The poor will see it and be glad: you who are lovers of God, let your hearts have life.
Psm 69:33 For the ears of the Lord are open to the poor, and he takes thought for his prisoners.
Psm 69:34 Let the heavens and the earth give praise to him, the seas, and everything moving in them.
Psm 69:35 For God will be the saviour of Zion, and the builder of the towns of Judah; so that it may be their resting-place and heritage.
Psm 69:36 The seed of his servants will have their part in it, and there the lovers of his name will have rest.
Psm 70:1 <To the chief music-maker. Of David. To keep in memory.> Let your salvation come quickly, O God; come quickly to my help, O Lord.
Psm 70:2 Let those who go after my soul have shame and trouble; let those who have evil designs against me be turned back and made foolish.
Psm 70:3 Let those who say Aha, aha! be turned back as a reward of their shame.
Psm 70:4 Let all those who are looking for you be glad and have joy in you; let the lovers of your salvation ever say, May God be great.
Psm 70:5 But I am poor and in need; come to me quickly, O God; you are my help and my saviour; let there be no waiting, O Lord.
Psm 71:1 In you, O Lord, have I put my hope; let me never be shamed.
Psm 71:2 Keep me safe in your righteousness, and come to my help; give ear to my voice, and be my saviour.
Psm 71:3 Be my strong Rock, the strong place of my salvation; for you are my Rock, and my safe place.
Psm 71:4 O my God, take me out of the hand of the sinner, out of the hand of the evil and cruel man.
Psm 71:5 For you are my hope, O Lord God; I have had faith in you from the time when I was young.
Psm 71:6 You have been my support from the day of my birth; you took me out of my mother’s body; my praise will be ever of you.
Psm 71:7 I am a wonder to all; but you are my strong tower.
Psm 71:8 My mouth will be full of your praise and glory all the day.
Psm 71:9 Do not give me up when I am old; be my help even when my strength is gone.
Psm 71:10 For my haters are waiting secretly for me; and those who are watching for my soul are banded together in their evil designs,
Psm 71:11 Saying, God has given him up; go after him and take him, for he has no helper.
Psm 71:12 O God, be not far from me; O my God, come quickly to my help.
Psm 71:13 Let those who say evil against my soul be overcome and put to shame; let my haters be made low and have no honour.
Psm 71:14 But I will go on ever hoping, and increasing in all your praise.
Psm 71:15 My mouth will make clear your righteousness and your salvation all the day; for they are more than may be measured.
Psm 71:16 I will give news of the great acts of the Lord God; my words will be of your righteousness, and of yours only.
Psm 71:17 O God, you have been my teacher from the time when I was young; and I have been talking of your works of wonder even till now.
Psm 71:18 Now when I am old and grey-headed, O God, give me not up; till I have made clear your strength to this generation, and your power to all those to come.
Psm 71:19 Your righteousness, O God, is very high; you have done great things; O God, who is like you?
Psm 71:20 You, who have sent great and bitter troubles on me, will give me life again, lifting me up from the deep waters of the underworld.
Psm 71:21 You will make me greater than before, and give me comfort on every side.
Psm 71:22 I will give praise to you with instruments of music, O my God, for you are true; I will make songs to you with music, O Holy One of Israel.
Psm 71:23 Joy will be on my lips when I make melody to you; and in my soul, to which you have given salvation.
Psm 71:24 My tongue will be talking of your righteousness all the day; for those whose purpose is to do me evil have been crushed and put to shame.
Psm 72:1 <Of Solomon.> Give the king your authority, O God, and your righteousness to the king’s son.
Psm 72:2 May he be a judge of your people in righteousness, and make true decisions for the poor.
Psm 72:3 May the mountains give peace to the people, and the hills righteousness.
Psm 72:4 May he be a judge of the poor among the people, may he give salvation to the children of those who are in need; by him let the violent be crushed.
Psm 72:5 May his life go on as long as the sun and moon, through all generations.
Psm 72:6 May he come down like rain on the cut grass; like showers watering the earth.
Psm 72:7 In his days may the upright do well, living in peace as long as there is a moon in heaven.
Psm 72:8 Let his kingdom be from sea to sea, from the River to the ends of the earth.
Psm 72:9 Let those who are against him go down before him; and let his haters be low in the dust.
Psm 72:10 Let the kings of Tarshish and of the islands come back with offerings; let the kings of Sheba and Seba give of their stores.
Psm 72:11 Yes, let all kings go down before him; let all nations be his servants.
Psm 72:12 For he will be a saviour to the poor in answer to his cry; and to him who is in need, without a helper.
Psm 72:13 He will have pity on the poor, and be the saviour of those who are in need.
Psm 72:14 He will keep their souls free from evil designs and violent attacks; and their blood will be of value in his eyes.
Psm 72:15 May he have long life, and may gold from Sheba be given to him: may prayers be made for him at all times; may blessings be on him every day.
Psm 72:16 May there be wide-stretching fields of grain in the land, shaking on the top of the mountains, full of fruit like Lebanon: may its stems be unnumbered like the grass of the earth.
Psm 72:17 May his name go on for ever, as long as the sun: may men be blessing themselves by him; may all nations be blessing his name.
Psm 72:18 Praise be to the Lord God, the God of Israel, the only doer of wonders.
Psm 72:19 Praise to the glory of his noble name for ever; let all the earth be full of his glory. So be it, So be it.
Psm 72:20 The prayers of David, the son of Jesse, are ended. <A Psalm. Of Asaph.>
Psm 73:1 Truly, God is good to Israel, even to such as are clean in heart.
Psm 73:2 But as for me, my feet had almost gone from under me; I was near to slipping;
Psm 73:3 Because of my envy of the men of pride, when I saw the well-being of the wrongdoers.
Psm 73:4 For they have no pain; their bodies are fat and strong.
Psm 73:5 They are not in trouble as others are; they have no part in the unhappy fate of men.
Psm 73:6 For this reason pride is round them like a chain; they are clothed with violent behaviour as with a robe.
Psm 73:7 Their eyes are bursting with fat; they have more than their heart’s desire.
Psm 73:8 Their thoughts are deep with evil designs; their talk from their seats of power is of cruel acts.
Psm 73:9 Their mouth goes up to heaven; their tongues go walking through the earth.
Psm 73:10 For this reason they are full of bread; and water is ever flowing for them.
Psm 73:11 And they say, How will the Lord see this? is there knowledge in the Most High?
Psm 73:12 Truly, such are the sinners; they do well at all times, and their wealth is increased.
Psm 73:13 As for me, I have made my heart clean to no purpose, washing my hands in righteousness;
Psm 73:14 For I have been troubled all the day; every morning have I undergone punishment.
Psm 73:15 If I would make clear what it is like, I would say, You are false to the generation of your children.
Psm 73:16 When my thoughts were turned to see the reason of this, it was a weariness in my eyes;
Psm 73:17 Till I went into God’s holy place, and saw the end of the evil-doers.
Psm 73:18 You put their feet where there was danger of slipping, so that they go down into destruction.
Psm 73:19 How suddenly are they wasted! fears are the cause of their destruction.
Psm 73:20 As a dream when one is awake, they are ended; they are like an image gone out of mind when sleep is over.
Psm 73:21 My heart was made bitter, and I was pained by the bite of grief:
Psm 73:22 As for me, I was foolish, and without knowledge; I was like a beast before you.
Psm 73:23 But still I am ever with you; you have taken me by my right hand.
Psm 73:24 Your wisdom will be my guide, and later you will put me in a place of honour.
Psm 73:25 Whom have I in heaven but you? and having you I have no desire for anything on earth.
Psm 73:26 My flesh and my heart are wasting away: but God is the Rock of my heart and my eternal heritage.
Psm 73:27 For those who are far away from you will come to destruction: you will put an end to all those who have not kept faith with you.
Psm 73:28 But it is good for me to come near to God: I have put my faith in the Lord God, so that I may make clear all his works.
Psm 74:1 <Maschil. Of Asaph.> Of God, why have you put us away from you for ever? why is the fire of your wrath smoking against the sheep who are your care?
Psm 74:2 Keep in mind your band of worshippers, for whom you gave payment in the days which are past, whom you took for yourself as the people of your heritage; even this mountain of Zion, which has been your resting-place.
Psm 74:3 Go up and see the unending destruction; all the evil which your haters have done in the holy place;
Psm 74:4 Sending out their voices like lions among your worshippers; they have put up their signs to be seen.
Psm 74:5 They are cutting down, like a man whose blade is lifted up against the thick trees.
Psm 74:6 Your doors are broken down with hammers and iron blades.
Psm 74:7 They have put on fire your holy place; they have made the place of your name unclean, pulling it down to the earth.
Psm 74:8 They have said in their hearts, Let us put an end to them all together; they have given over to the fire all God’s places of worship in the land.
Psm 74:9 We do not see our signs: there is no longer any prophet, or anyone among us to say how long.
Psm 74:10 O God, how long will those who are against us say cruel things? will the hater go on looking down on your name for ever?
Psm 74:11 Why are you keeping back your hand, and covering your right hand in your robe?
Psm 74:12 For from the past God is my King, working salvation in the earth.
Psm 74:13 The sea was parted in two by your strength; the heads of the great sea-beasts were broken.
Psm 74:14 The heads of the great snake were crushed by you; you gave them as food to the fishes of the sea.
Psm 74:15 You made valleys for fountains and springs; you made the ever-flowing rivers dry.
Psm 74:16 The day is yours and the night is yours: you made the light and the sun.
Psm 74:17 By you all the limits of the earth were fixed; you have made summer and winter.
Psm 74:18 Keep this in mind, O Lord, that your haters have said cruel things, and that your name has been looked down on by a people of evil behaviour.
Psm 74:19 O give not the soul of your dove to the hawk; let not the life of the poor go out of your memory for ever.
Psm 74:20 Keep in mind your undertaking; for the dark places of the earth are full of pride and cruel acts.
Psm 74:21 O let not the crushed be turned back in shame; let the low man and the poor give praise to your name.
Psm 74:22 Up! O God, be the judge of your cause; keep in mind the bitter things which the man of evil behaviour says against you every day.
Psm 74:23 Keep in mind the voice of your haters; the outcry of those who come against you goes up every day.
Psm 75:1 <To the chief music-maker; put to Al-tashheth. A Psalm. Of Asaph. A Song.> To you, O God, we give praise, to you we give praise: and those who give honour to your name make clear your works of power.
Psm 75:2 When the right time has come, I will be the judge in righteousness.
Psm 75:3 When the earth and all its people become feeble, I am the support of its pillars. (Selah.)
Psm 75:4 I say to the men of pride, Let your pride be gone: and to the sinners, Let not your horn be lifted up.
Psm 75:5 Let not your horn be lifted up: let no more words of pride come from your outstretched necks.
Psm 75:6 For honour does not come from the east, or from the west, or uplifting from the south;
Psm 75:7 But God is the judge, putting down one, and lifting up another.
Psm 75:8 For in the hand of the Lord is a cup, and the wine is red; it is well mixed, overflowing from his hand: he will make all the sinners of the earth take of it, even to the last drop.
Psm 75:9 But I will ever be full of joy, making songs of praise to the God of Jacob.
Psm 75:10 By him will all the horns of the sinners be cut off; but the horns of the upright will be lifted up.
Psm 76:1 <To the chief music-maker; put to Neginoth. A Psalm. Of Asaph. A Song.> In Judah is the knowledge of God; his name is great in Israel,
Psm 76:2 In Salem is his tent, his resting-place in Zion.
Psm 76:3 There were the arrows of the bow broken, there he put an end to body-cover, sword, and fight. (Selah.)
Psm 76:4 You are shining and full of glory, more than the eternal mountains.
Psm 76:5 Gone is the wealth of the strong, their last sleep has overcome them; the men of war have become feeble.
Psm 76:6 At the voice of your wrath, O God of Jacob, deep sleep has overcome carriage and horse.
Psm 76:7 You, you are to be feared; who may keep his place before you in the time of your wrath?
Psm 76:8 From heaven you gave your decision; the earth, in its fear, gave no sound,
Psm 76:9 When God took his place as judge, for the salvation of the poor on the earth. (Selah.)
Psm 76:10 The … will give you praise; the rest of …
Psm 76:11 Give to the Lord your God what is his by right; let all who are round him give offerings to him who is to be feared.
Psm 76:12 He puts an end to the wrath of rulers; he is feared by the kings of the earth.
Psm 77:1 <To the chief music-maker. After Jeduthun. Of Asaph. A Psalm.> I was crying to God with my voice; even to God with my voice, and he gave ear to me.
Psm 77:2 In the day of my trouble, my heart was turned to the Lord: my hand was stretched out in the night without resting; my soul would not be comforted.
Psm 77:3 I will keep God in memory, with sounds of grief; my thoughts are troubled, and my spirit is overcome. (Selah.)
Psm 77:4 You keep my eyes from sleep; I am so troubled that no words come.
Psm 77:5 My thoughts go back to the days of the past, to the years which are gone.
Psm 77:6 The memory of my song comes back to me in the night; my thoughts are moving in my heart; my spirit is searching with care.
Psm 77:7 Will the Lord put me away for ever? will he be kind no longer?
Psm 77:8 Is his mercy quite gone for ever? has his word come to nothing?
Psm 77:9 Has God put away the memory of his pity? are his mercies shut up by his wrath? (Selah.)
Psm 77:10 And I said, It is a weight on my spirit; but I will keep in mind the years of the right hand of the Most High.
Psm 77:11 I will keep in mind the works of Jah: I will keep the memory of your wonders in the past.
Psm 77:12 I will give thought to all your work, while my mind goes over your acts of power.
Psm 77:13 Your way, O God, is holy: what god is so great as our God?
Psm 77:14 You are the God who does works of power: you have made your strength clear to the nations.
Psm 77:15 With your arm you have made your people free, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. (Selah.)
Psm 77:16 The waters saw you, O God; the waters saw you, they were in fear: even the deep was troubled.
Psm 77:17 The clouds sent out water; the skies gave out a sound; truly, your arrows went far and wide.
Psm 77:18 The voice of your thunder went rolling on; the world was flaming with the light of the storm; the earth was shaking.
Psm 77:19 Your way was in the sea, and your road in the great waters; there was no knowledge of your footsteps.
Psm 77:20 You were guiding your people like a flock, by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
