⁴ These things I remember,
    as I pour out my soul:
how I went with the throng^[a]
    and led them in procession to the house of God,
with glad shouts and songs of thanksgiving,
    a multitude keeping festival.^(D)
5 Why are you cast down, O my soul,
    and why are you disquieted within me?
Hope in God, for I shall again praise him,
my help^{(E) 6}     and my God.

My soul is cast down within me;
    therefore I remember you
from the land of Jordan and of Hermon,
    from Mount Mizar.
⁷ Deep calls to deep
    at the thunder of your torrents;
all your waves and your billows
    have gone over me.^(F)
8 By day the Lord commands his steadfast love,
    and at night his song is with me,
    a prayer to the God of my life.^(G)

⁹ I say to God, my rock,
    “Why have you forgotten me?
Why must I walk about mournfully
    because the enemy oppresses me?”^(H)
10 As with a deadly wound in my body,
    my adversaries taunt me,
while they say to me continually,
    “Where is your God?”^(I)

¹¹ Why are you cast down, O my soul,
    and why are you disquieted within me?
Hope in God, for I shall again praise him,
    my help and my God.^(J)

³ O send out your light and your truth;
    let them lead me;
let them bring me to your holy hill
    and to your dwelling.^(M)
4 Then I will go to the altar of God,
    to God my exceeding joy,
and I will praise you with the harp,
    O God, my God.^(N)

⁵ Why are you cast down, O my soul,
    and why are you disquieted within me?
Hope in God, for I shall again praise him,
    my help and my God.^(O)

“My heart exults in the Lord;
    my strength is exalted in my God.^[a]
My mouth derides my enemies
    because I rejoice in your victory.^(A)

² There is no Holy One like the Lord,
    no one besides you;
    there is no Rock like our God.^(B)
3 Talk no more so very proudly;
    let not arrogance come from your mouth,
for the Lord is a God of knowledge,
    and by him actions are weighed.^(C)
4 The bows of the mighty are broken,
    but the feeble gird on strength.^(D)
5 Those who were full have hired themselves out for bread,
    but those who were hungry are fat with spoil.
The barren has borne seven,
    but she who has many children is forlorn.^(E)
6 The Lord kills and brings to life;
    he brings down to Sheol and raises up.^(F)
7 The Lord makes poor and makes rich;
    he brings low; he also exalts.^(G)
8 He raises up the poor from the dust;
    he lifts the needy from the ash heap
to make them sit with princes
    and inherit a seat of honor.
For the pillars of the earth are the Lord’s,
    and on them he has set the world.^(H)

⁹ He will guard the feet of his faithful ones,
    but the wicked will perish in darkness,
    for not by might does one prevail.^(I)
10 The Lord! His adversaries will be shattered;
    the Most High^[b] will thunder in heaven.
The Lord will judge the ends of the earth;
    he will give strength to his king
    and exalt the power of his anointed.”^(J)
