⁴ May he ^(G)grant you your heart's desire
    and fulfill all your plans!
⁵ May we shout for joy over ^(H)your salvation,
    and in the name of our God set up our ^(I)banners!
May the Lord fulfill all your petitions!

⁶ Now I know that the Lord saves his anointed;
    he will answer him from his holy heaven
    with ^(J)the saving might of his right hand.
⁷ Some trust in ^(K)chariots and some in ^(L)horses,
    ^(M)but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.
⁸ They collapse and fall,
    but we rise and stand upright.

⁹ O Lord, save ^(N)the king!
    May he answer us when we call.

⁸ Your hand will ^(M)find out all your enemies;
    your right hand will find out those who hate you.
⁹ You will make them as ^(N)a blazing oven
    when you appear.
The Lord will swallow them up in his ^(O)wrath,
    and ^(P)fire will consume them.
¹⁰ You ^(Q)will destroy their ^(R)descendants from the earth,
    and their offspring from among the children of man.
¹¹ Though they plan evil against you,
    though they ^(S)devise mischief, they will not succeed.
¹² For you will put them ^(T)to flight;
    you will ^(U)aim at their faces with your bows.

¹³ Be exalted, O Lord, in your strength!
    We will sing and praise your power.

³ Yet you are ^(E)holy,
    ^(F)enthroned on ^(G)the praises^[a] of Israel.
⁴ In you our fathers trusted;
    they trusted, and you delivered them.
⁵ To you they ^(H)cried and were rescued;
    in you they ^(I)trusted and were not put to shame.

⁶ But I am ^(J)a worm and not a man,
    ^(K)scorned by mankind and ^(L)despised by the people.
⁷ All who see me ^(M)mock me;
    they make mouths at me; they ^(N)wag their heads;
^8 (O)“He trusts in the Lord; let him ^(P)deliver him;
    let him rescue him, for he ^(Q)delights in him!”

⁹ Yet you are he who ^(R)took me from the womb;
    you made me trust you at my mother's breasts.
¹⁰ On you was I cast from my birth,
    and from ^(S)my mother's womb you have been my God.
¹¹ Be not ^(T)far from me,
    for trouble is near,
    and there is ^(U)none to help.

¹² Many bulls encompass me;
    ^(V)strong bulls of ^(W)Bashan surround me;
¹³ they ^(X)open wide their mouths at me,
    like a ravening and roaring lion.

¹⁴ I am ^(Y)poured out like water,
    and all my bones are ^(Z)out of joint;
my ^(AA)heart is like ^(AB)wax;
    it is melted within my breast;
¹⁵ my strength is ^(AC)dried up like a potsherd,
    and my ^(AD)tongue sticks to my jaws;
    you lay me in the dust of death.

¹⁶ For ^(AE)dogs encompass me;
    a company of evildoers ^(AF)encircles me;
they have ^(AG)pierced my hands and feet^[b]—
¹⁷ I can count all my bones—
they ^(AH)stare and gloat over me;
^18 (AI)they divide my garments among them,
    and for my clothing they cast lots.

¹⁹ But you, O Lord, ^(AJ)do not be far off!
    O you my help, ^(AK)come quickly to my aid!
²⁰ Deliver my soul from the sword,
    my precious life from the power of ^(AL)the dog!
²¹     Save me from ^(AM)the mouth of the lion!
You have rescued^[c] me from the horns of ^(AN)the wild oxen!

^22 (AO)I will tell of your name to my ^(AP)brothers;
    in the midst of the congregation I will praise you:
²³ You who ^(AQ)fear the Lord, praise him!
    All you offspring of Jacob, ^(AR)glorify him,
    and stand in awe of him, all you offspring of Israel!
²⁴ For he has not despised or abhorred
    the affliction of ^(AS)the afflicted,
and he has not ^(AT)hidden his face from him,
    but has heard, when he ^(AU)cried to him.

²⁵ From you comes my praise in the great ^(AV)congregation;
    my ^(AW)vows I will ^(AX)perform before those who fear him.
^26 (AY)The afflicted^[d] shall ^(AZ)eat and be satisfied;
    those who seek him shall praise the Lord!
    May your hearts ^(BA)live forever!

²⁷ All ^(BB)the ends of the earth shall remember
    and turn to the Lord,
and all ^(BC)the families of the nations
    shall worship before you.
²⁸ For ^(BD)kingship belongs to the Lord,
    and he rules over the nations.

²⁹ All ^(BE)the prosperous of the earth eat and worship;
    before him shall ^(BF)bow all who go down to the dust,
    even the one who could not ^(BG)keep himself alive.
³⁰ Posterity shall serve him;
    it shall be told of the Lord to the coming ^(BH)generation;
³¹ they shall ^(BI)come and proclaim his righteousness to a people yet ^(BJ)unborn,
    that he has done it.
