^5 (F)Come and see what God has done:
    ^(G)he is awesome in his deeds toward the children of man.
⁶ He ^(H)turned the sea into dry land;
    they ^(I)passed through the river on foot.
There did we rejoice in him,
⁷     who rules by his might forever,
whose ^(J)eyes keep watch on the nations—
    let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah

⁸ Bless our God, O peoples;
    let the sound of his praise be heard,
⁹ who has kept our soul among the living
    and ^(K)has not let our feet slip.
¹⁰ For you, O God, have ^(L)tested us;
    you have tried us as silver is tried.
¹¹ You brought us into ^(M)the net;
    you laid a crushing burden on our backs;
¹² you let men ^(N)ride over our heads;
    we went through fire and through ^(O)water;
yet you have brought us out to a place of abundance.

¹³ I will come into your house with burnt offerings;
    I will ^(P)perform my vows to you,
¹⁴ that which my lips uttered
    and my mouth promised ^(Q)when I was in trouble.
¹⁵ I will offer to you burnt offerings of fattened animals,
    with the smoke of the sacrifice of rams;
I will make an offering of bulls and goats. Selah

^16 (R)Come and hear, all you who fear God,
    and I will tell what he has done for my soul.
¹⁷ I cried to him with my mouth,
    and high praise was on^[a] my tongue.^[b]
18 If I had ^(S)cherished iniquity in my heart,
    ^(T)the Lord would not have listened.
¹⁹ But truly ^(U)God has listened;
    he has attended to the voice of my prayer.

²⁰ Blessed be God,
    because he has not rejected my prayer
    or removed his steadfast love from me!

⁴ Let the nations be glad and sing for joy,
    for you ^(AB)judge the peoples with equity
    and guide the nations upon earth. Selah
^5 (AC)Let the peoples praise you, O God;
    let all the peoples praise you!

⁶ The earth has ^(AD)yielded its increase;
    God, our God, shall bless us.
⁷ God shall bless us;
    let ^(AE)all the ends of the earth fear him!

⁴ Sing to God, ^(AK)sing praises to his name;
    ^(AL)lift up a song to him who ^(AM)rides through ^(AN)the deserts;
his name is ^(AO)the Lord;
    exult before him!
^5 (AP)Father of the fatherless and ^(AQ)protector of widows
    is God in his holy habitation.
⁶ God ^(AR)settles the solitary in a home;
    he ^(AS)leads out the prisoners to prosperity,
    but ^(AT)the rebellious dwell in ^(AU)a parched land.

⁷ O God, when you ^(AV)went out before your people,
    ^(AW)when you marched through ^(AX)the wilderness, Selah
^8 (AY)the earth quaked, the heavens poured down rain,
    before God, the One of Sinai,
    before God,^[c] the God of Israel.
^9 (AZ)Rain in abundance, O God, you shed abroad;
    you restored your inheritance as it languished;
¹⁰ your flock^[d] found a dwelling in it;
    in your goodness, O God, you ^(BA)provided for the needy.

¹¹ The Lord gives ^(BB)the word;
    ^(BC)the women who announce the news are a great host:
^{12     (BD)}“The kings of the armies—they flee, they flee!”
The women at home ^(BE)divide the spoil—
¹³     though you men lie among ^(BF)the sheepfolds—
the wings of a dove covered with silver,
    its pinions with shimmering gold.
¹⁴ When the Almighty scatters kings there,
    let snow fall on ^(BG)Zalmon.

¹⁵ O mountain of God, mountain of Bashan;
    O many-peaked^[e] mountain, mountain of Bashan!
¹⁶ Why do you look with hatred, O many-peaked mountain,
    at the mount that God ^(BH)desired for his abode,
    yes, where the Lord will dwell forever?
^17 (BI)The chariots of God are twice ten thousand,
    thousands upon thousands;
    the Lord is among them; Sinai is now in the sanctuary.
^18 (BJ)You ascended on high,
    ^(BK)leading a host of captives in your train
    and ^(BL)receiving gifts among men,
even among ^(BM)the rebellious, ^(BN)that the Lord God may dwell there.

¹⁹ Blessed be the Lord,
    who daily ^(BO)bears us up;
    God is our salvation. Selah
²⁰ Our God is a God of salvation,
    ^(BP)and to God, the Lord, belong deliverances from death.
^21 (BQ)But God will strike the heads of his enemies,
    the hairy crown of him who walks in his guilty ways.
²² The Lord said,
    “I will bring them back ^(BR)from Bashan,
^(BS)I will bring them back from the depths of the sea,
²³ that you may ^(BT)strike your feet in their blood,
    that ^(BU)the tongues of your dogs may have their portion from the foe.”

²⁴ Your procession is^[f] seen, O God,
    the procession of my God, my King, into the sanctuary—
^25 (BV)the singers in front, ^(BW)the musicians last,
    between them ^(BX)virgins playing tambourines:
^26 (BY)“Bless God in the great congregation,
    the Lord, O you^[g] who are of ^(BZ)Israel's fountain!”
²⁷ There is ^(CA)Benjamin, the least of them, in the lead,
    the princes of Judah in their throng,
    the princes of ^(CB)Zebulun, the princes of Naphtali.

^28 (CC)Summon your power, O God,^[h]
    the power, O God, by which you have worked for us.
²⁹ Because of your temple at Jerusalem
    kings shall ^(CD)bear gifts to you.
³⁰ Rebuke ^(CE)the beasts that dwell among the reeds,
    the herd of ^(CF)bulls with the calves of the peoples.
^(CG)Trample underfoot those who lust after tribute;
    scatter the peoples who delight in war.^[i]
31 Nobles shall come from ^(CH)Egypt;
    ^(CI)Cush shall hasten to ^(CJ)stretch out her hands to God.

^32 (CK)O kingdoms of the earth, sing to God;
    sing praises to the Lord, Selah
³³ to him ^(CL)who rides in ^(CM)the heavens, the ancient heavens;
    behold, he ^(CN)sends out his voice, his mighty voice.
^34 (CO)Ascribe power to God,
    whose majesty is over Israel,
    and whose ^(CP)power is in ^(CQ)the skies.
^35 (CR)Awesome is God from his^{[j] (CS)}sanctuary;
    the God of Israel—he is the one who gives ^(CT)power and strength to his people.
Blessed be God!

^4 (DC)More in number than the hairs of my head
    are ^(DD)those who hate me ^(DE)without cause;
mighty are those who would destroy me,
    ^(DF)those who attack me with lies.
What I did not steal
    must I now restore?
⁵ O God, you know my folly;
    the wrongs I have done are not hidden from you.

⁶ Let not those who hope in you ^(DG)be put to shame through me,
    O Lord God of hosts;
let not those who seek you be brought to dishonor through me,
    O God of Israel.
⁷ For it is ^(DH)for your sake that I have borne reproach,
    that dishonor has covered my face.
⁸ I have become ^(DI)a stranger to my brothers,
    an alien to my mother's sons.

⁹ For ^(DJ)zeal for your house has consumed me,
    and ^(DK)the reproaches of those who reproach you have fallen on me.
¹⁰ When I wept and humbled^[l] my soul with fasting,
    it became my reproach.
¹¹ When I made ^(DL)sackcloth my clothing,
    I became ^(DM)a byword to them.
¹² I am the talk of those who ^(DN)sit in the gate,
    and the drunkards make ^(DO)songs about me.

¹³ But as for me, my ^(DP)prayer is to you, O Lord.
    At ^(DQ)an acceptable time, O God,
    in the abundance of your steadfast love answer me in your saving faithfulness.
¹⁴ Deliver me
    from sinking in ^(DR)the mire;
^(DS)let me be delivered from my enemies
    and from ^(DT)the deep waters.
¹⁵ Let not the flood sweep over me,
    or the deep swallow me up,
    or ^(DU)the pit close ^(DV)its mouth over me.

¹⁶ Answer me, O Lord, for your ^(DW)steadfast love is good;
    according to your abundant ^(DX)mercy, ^(DY)turn to me.
^17 (DZ)Hide not your face from your servant,
    ^(EA)for I am in distress; ^(EB)make haste to answer me.
¹⁸ Draw near to my soul, redeem me;
    ransom me because of my enemies!

¹⁹ You know my ^(EC)reproach,
    and my shame and my dishonor;
    my foes are all known to you.
^20 (ED)Reproaches have broken my heart,
    so that I am in ^(EE)despair.
I ^(EF)looked for ^(EG)pity, but there was none,
    and for ^(EH)comforters, but I found none.
²¹ They gave me ^(EI)poison for food,
    and for my thirst they gave me ^(EJ)sour wine to drink.

^22 (EK)Let their own ^(EL)table before them become a snare;
    ^(EM)and when they are at peace, let it become a trap.^[m]
23 (EN)Let their eyes be darkened, so that they cannot see,
    ^(EO)and make their loins tremble continually.
²⁴ Pour out your indignation upon them,
    and let your burning anger overtake them.
^25 (EP)May their camp be a desolation;
    let no one dwell in their tents.
²⁶ For they ^(EQ)persecute him whom ^(ER)you have struck down,
    and they recount the pain of ^(ES)those you have wounded.
^27 (ET)Add to them punishment upon punishment;
    may they have no acquittal from you.^[n]
28 Let them be ^(EU)blotted out of the book of the living;
    let them not be ^(EV)enrolled among the righteous.

²⁹ But I am afflicted and in pain;
    let your salvation, O God, ^(EW)set me on high!

³⁰ I will ^(EX)praise the name of God with a song;
    I will ^(EY)magnify him with ^(EZ)thanksgiving.
³¹ This will ^(FA)please the Lord more than an ox
    or a bull ^(FB)with horns and hoofs.
³² When ^(FC)the humble see it they will be glad;
    you who seek God, ^(FD)let your hearts revive.
³³ For the Lord hears the needy
    and ^(FE)does not despise his own people who are prisoners.

³⁴ Let ^(FF)heaven and earth praise him,
    the seas and everything that moves in them.
³⁵ For ^(FG)God will save Zion
    and build up the cities of Judah,
and people shall dwell there and possess it;
^{36     (FH)}the offspring of his servants shall inherit it,
    and those who love his name shall dwell in it.
