1  O God, ^jyou have rejected us, ^kbroken our defenses;

you have been angry; ^loh, restore us.

2  You have made the land to quake; you have torn it open;

^mrepair its breaches, for it totters.

3  ⁿYou have made your people see hard things;

^oyou have given us ^pwine to drink that made us stagger.

4  You have set up ^qa banner for those who fear you,

that they may flee to it ^rfrom the bow.² Selah

5  ^sThat your ^tbeloved ones may be delivered,

give salvation by your right hand and answer us!

6  God has spoken ^uin his holiness:³

“With exultation ^vI will divide up ^wShechem

and portion out the Vale of ^xSuccoth.

7  ^yGilead is mine; Manasseh is mine;

^zEphraim is ^amy helmet;

Judah is my ^bscepter.

8  ^cMoab is my washbasin;

upon Edom I ^dcast my shoe;

over ^ePhilistia I shout in triumph.”⁴

9  Who will bring me to the fortified city?

^fWho will lead me to Edom?

10  Have you not ^grejected us, O God?

You ^hdo not go forth, O God, with our armies.

11  Oh, grant us help against the foe,

for ⁱvain is the salvation of man!

12  With God we shall ^jdo valiantly;

it is he who will ^ktread down our foes.

1  Hear my cry, O God,

^mlisten to my prayer;

2  from the end of the earth I call to you

when my heart is ⁿfaint.

Lead me to ^othe rock

that is higher than I,

3  for you have been ^pmy refuge,

a strong ^qtower against the enemy.

4  Let me ^rdwell in your tent forever!

Let me take refuge under ^sthe shelter of your wings! Selah

5  For you, O God, have heard my vows;

you have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.

6  ^tProlong ^uthe life of the king;

may his years endure to all generations!

7  May he be enthroned forever before God;

appoint ^vsteadfast love and faithfulness to watch over him!

8  So will I ever sing praises to your name,

as I ^wperform my vows day after day.

1  For God alone ^ymy soul ^zwaits in silence;

from him comes my salvation.

2  ^aHe alone is my rock and my salvation,

my ^bfortress; ^cI shall not be greatly shaken.

3  How long will all of you attack a man

to batter him,

like ^da leaning wall, a tottering fence?

4  They only plan to thrust him down from his ^ehigh position.

They take pleasure in falsehood.

^fThey bless with their mouths,

but inwardly they curse. Selah

5  For God alone, O ^ymy soul, wait in silence,

for my hope is from him.

6  ^aHe only is my rock and my salvation,

my fortress; I shall not be shaken.

7  On God rests my ^gsalvation and my glory;

my mighty rock, ^hmy refuge is God.

8  ⁱTrust in him at all times, O people;

^jpour out your heart before him;

God is ^ha refuge for us. Selah

9  ^kThose of low estate are but a breath;

those of high estate ^lare a delusion;

in the balances they go up;

^kthey are together lighter than a breath.

10  Put no trust in extortion;

^mset no vain hopes on robbery;

ⁿif riches increase, set not your heart on them.

11  ^oOnce God has spoken;

^otwice have I heard this:

that ^ppower belongs to God,

12  and that to you, O Lord, ^qbelongs steadfast love.

For you will ^rrender to a man

according to his work.
