(A)The law of the Lord is perfect,[a]
    (B)reviving the soul;
(C)the testimony of the Lord is (D)sure,
    (E)making wise (F)the simple;
(G)the precepts of the Lord are right,
    rejoicing the heart;
the commandment of the Lord is (H)pure,
    (I)enlightening the eyes;
the fear of the Lord is clean,
    enduring forever;
the rules[b] of the Lord are (J)true,
    and righteous altogether.
10 More to be desired are they than (K)gold,
    even much (L)fine gold;
(M)sweeter also than honey
    and drippings of (N)the honeycomb.
11 Moreover, by them is your servant warned;
    (O)in keeping them there is great reward.

12 (P)Who can discern his errors?
    (Q)Declare me innocent from (R)hidden faults.
13 (S)Keep back your servant also from (T)presumptuous sins;
    let them not have (U)dominion over me!
Then I shall be blameless,
    and innocent of great transgression.

14 Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
    be acceptable in your sight,
    O Lord, my (V)rock and my (W)redeemer.

Trust in the Name of the Lord Our God

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

20 May the Lord (X)answer you in the day of trouble!
    May (Y)the name of the God of Jacob (Z)protect you!
May he send you help from (AA)the sanctuary
    and give you support from (AB)Zion!
May he (AC)remember all your offerings
    and regard with favor your burnt sacrifices! Selah

May he (AD)grant you your heart's desire
    and fulfill all your plans!
May we shout for joy over (AE)your salvation,
    and in the name of our God set up our (AF)banners!
May the Lord fulfill all your petitions!

Now I know that the Lord saves his anointed;
    he will answer him from his holy heaven
    with (AG)the saving might of his right hand.
Some trust in (AH)chariots and some in (AI)horses,
    (AJ)but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.
They collapse and fall,
    but we rise and stand upright.

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

The King Rejoices in the Lord's Strength

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

21 O Lord, in your (AL)strength the king rejoices,
    and in your (AM)salvation how greatly he exults!
You have (AN)given him his heart's desire
    and have not withheld the request of his lips. Selah
