Sòm 9-16
Haitian Creole Version
9 ¶ (9:1) Pou chèf sanba yo. Sou menm lè ak chante ki di: Lanmò pitit gason an. Se yon sòm David. (9:2) M'a fè lwanj ou ak tout kè m', Seyè. M'a rakonte tout bèl mèvèy ou yo.
2 (9:3) Se ou menm k'ap fè m' chante, se ou menm k'ap fè kè m' kontan. Bondye ki anwo nan syèl la, m'a chante lwanj ou.
3 (9:4) Parèt ou parèt, lènmi m' yo fè bak. Yo pran tranble, yo tonbe, yo mouri.
4 (9:5) Tankou yon jij ki san patipri, ou chita sou fotèy ou. ou fè m' jistis, ou defann kòz mwen.
5 (9:6) Ou regle moun lòt nasyon yo, ou detwi mechan yo. Ou efase non yo nèt pou tout tan.
6 (9:7) Pa gen lènmi ankò, yo fini nèt. Ata lavil yo ou vide atè. Pa gen anyen pou fè moun chonje yo ankò.
7 (9:8) Men Seyè a, se wa li ye pou tout tan. Li mete fotèy li la pou l' fè jistis.
8 (9:9) Li gouvènen tout bagay avèk jistis. Li jije tout moun san patipri.
9 (9:10) Moun y'ap peze yo, se bò kote Seyè a yo jwenn pwoteksyon. Se la yo jwenn yon kote pou yo kache, lè yo nan tray.
10 (9:11) Moun ki konnen ou, Seyè, y'ap mete konfyans yo nan ou. Paske, ou pa lage moun k'ap chache ou.
11 ¶ (9:12) Ann fè lwanj Seyè a k'ap gouvènen sou mòn Siyon an. Ann fè tout nasyon yo konnen sa li te fè.
12 (9:13) Bondye chonje moun k'ap soufri yo, li pa bliye rèl malere yo, li pini moun ki fè yo mal.
13 (9:14) Gen pitye pou mwen, Seyè! Gade nan ki mizè moun ki rayi m' yo mete m'. vin sove m'! Pa kite m' mouri, Seyè,
14 (9:15) pou m' ka kanpe devan moun lavil Jerizalèm yo, pou m' di yo poukisa m'ap fè lwanj ou. M'ap kontan nèt, paske ou te delivre m'.
15 (9:16) Moun lòt nasyon yo fouye yon gwo twou: se yo menm ki tonbe ladan li. Yo tann yon pèlen: se pye yo ki pran ladan li.
16 (9:17) Seyè a fè yo konnen ki moun li ye, li jije yo san patipri. Sa mechan yo fè a tounen kont yo.
17 (9:18) Tout mechan yo gen pou mouri. Tout moun ki bliye gen Bondye gen pou mouri tou.
18 (9:19) Se pa tout tan yo ka bliye moun ki nan mizè. Se pa tout tan yo ka wete espwa moun ki nan lafliksyon.
19 (9:20) Leve non, Seyè! Pa kite lèzòm genyen batay la! Mennen moun lòt nasyon yo vin jije devan ou.
20 (9:21) Fè kè yo kase, Seyè! Fè yo konnen se moun ase yo ye.
10 ¶ Poukisa ou rete lwen konsa, Seyè? Poukisa ou kache kò ou konsa lè nou nan ka?
2 Mechan an ap gonfle lestonmak li, l'ap pèsekite malere yo. Se pou pye l' pran nan pèlen limenm li tann lan.
3 Mechan an ap vante tèt li pou move lanvi li gen nan kè l'. Lanbisyon fè l' pale mal, li vire do bay Bondye.
4 Mechan an tèlman gen lògèy, l'ap plede di: -Bondye p'ap pini m'. Pa gen Bondye. Se sa ase mechan an mete nan tèt li.
5 Tou sa li fè toujou mache byen. Li pa konprann jijman Bondye yo. L'ap meprize lènmi l' yo.
6 L'ap di nan kè l': Anyen pa ka brannen m'. Mwen p'ap janm nan pwoblèm.
7 Tout pawòl li se madichon, se manti, se twonpe moun. Li cho konsa pou l' pale moun mal, pou l' di gwo mo.
8 Li kache kò l' nan ti bouk yo, l'ap pare tann inonsan yo pou l' touye yo an kachèt. L'ap veye moun ki san defans.
9 Li anbiske kò l' tankou yon lyon nan kachèt li. Li kouche, l'ap tann malere yo. Li pran yo nan pèlen li, li trennen yo pote ale.
10 Li bese, li kwoupi kò l', malere yo tonbe nan men l'.
11 Mechan an di nan kè l': -Bondye p'ap okipe bagay konsa. Li fèmen je l', li p'ap janm wè m'.
12 ¶ Leve non, Seyè! vin sove mwen! Bondye, pa bliye moun y'ap peze yo!
13 Ki jan mechan an fè ap meprize Bondye jouk pou li di nan kè l': Li p'ap pini mwen?
14 Men, ou make tout bagay. Ou konnen soufrans ak lapenn lèzòm. Ou toujou pare pou ede yo. Moun ki san defans yo, se nan men ou yo lage kòz yo, paske ou toujou ede moun ki san papa.
15 Kraze pouvwa mechan yo, pouvwa moun k'ap fè mal yo. Fè yo rann kont pou sa yo fè, jouk yo disparèt nèt devan je ou.
16 Seyè a, se wa li ye depi tout tan ak pou tout tan. Moun lòt nasyon yo gen pou disparèt nan peyi li a.
17 Seyè, w'a koute moun ki soumèt devan ou lè y'ap lapriyè. W'a ba yo kouraj.
18 W'a tande rèl moun y'ap peze yo, rèl timoun ki san papa yo. W'a fè yo jistis. Konsa, lèzòm ki fèt ak pousyè tè p'ap kapab fè moun pè ankò.
11 ¶ Pou chèf sanba yo. Se yon sòm David. Se bò kote Seyè a m'ap chache pwoteksyon. Ki jan nou ka fè di m': Kouri al kache kò ou nan mòn tankou zwazo,
2 paske mechan yo pare banza yo, y'ap vize ak flèch yo pou yo tire nan fènwa sou moun k'ap mache dwat yo?
3 Pa gen anyen yon bon moun ka fè, lè tout bagay tèt anba.
4 ¶ Seyè a nan kay ki apa pou li a, li gen fotèy li nan syèl la. L'ap gade lèzòm: li konnen sa y'ap fè.
5 Kit yo bon, kit yo mechan, Bondye ap gade sa y'ap fè. li pa vle wè moun k'ap fè mechanste.
6 Li voye chabon dife ak souf cho sou mechan yo tankou lapli. Li soufle yon van cho kou dife sou yo. Se sa yo tout yo merite.
7 Seyè a pa nan patipri, li renmen lè moun fè bagay ki byen. Moun ki mache dwat yo va parèt devan li.
12 ¶ (12:1) Pou chèf sanba yo. Sou wityèm lan. Se yon sòm David. (12:2) vin sove nou non, Seyè! Pa gen moun ki renmen ou ankò! Pa gen moun sou latè k'ap sèvi ou ak tout kè yo ankò!
2 (12:3) Yonn ap bay lòt manti. Yonn ap flate lòt, yonn ap twonpe lòt.
3 (12:4) Seyè, fèmen bouch bann flatè sa yo, bann moun sa yo k'ap vante tèt yo.
4 (12:5) Y'ap plede di: -Nou pale jan nou vle. Bouch nou rele n' pa nou. Ki moun ki pou pase nou lòd?
5 (12:6) Y'ap peze malere yo. Pòv yo ap soufri, y'ap plenyen. Men, Seyè a di: M'ap vini koulye a. M'ap ba yo sekou y'ap tann lan.
6 (12:7) Pawòl Seyè a se bon pawòl. Li tankou lajan yo pase sèt fwa nan dife pou wè si li bon.
7 (12:8) Ou menm, Seyè, w'a toujou defann nou! Pa kite moun sa yo fè nou anyen!
8 (12:9) Mechan yo ap pwonmennen sou moun toupatou: se tout moun k'ap fè lwanj move bagay y'ap fè yo.
13 ¶ (13:1) Pou chèf sanba yo. Se yon sòm David. (13:2) Konbe tan ankò w'a bliye m', Seyè? Gen lè ou bliye m' nèt? Konbe tan ankò m'a rete san m' pa wè ou?
2 (13:3) Konbe tan ankò pou m' soufri? Konbe tan ankò pou m' gen lapenn nan kè mwen, pou m' gen lapenn lajounen kou lannwit? Konbe tan ankò lènmi m' yo va pilonnen m' anba pye yo?3 (13:4) Gade m' non, Seyè! Reponn mwen non, Bondye mwen! Kenbe m' pou m' pa mouri.
4 (13:5) Konsa, moun k'ap pèsekite m' yo p'ap ka di: Nou fini avè l'! Yo p'ap gen chans wè m' tonbe pou yo kontan!
5 (13:6) Pou mwen menm, se sou ou mwen konte, paske ou renmen m' anpil. Kè m' kontan, paske ou delivre mwen.
6 (13:7) M'ap chante pou Seyè a, paske li te bon pou mwen.
14 ¶ Pou chèf sanba yo. Se yon sòm David. Moun fou yo di nan kè yo: Pa gen Bondye. Yo tout fin pouri. Y'ap fè yon bann vye bagay sal. Pa gen yonn ki fè sa ki byen.
2 Seyè a rete nan syèl la, l'ap gade lèzòm anba, pou l' wè si gen ladan yo ki gen konprann, si gen ladan yo k'ap chache l'.
3 Men yo tout pèdi chemen yo. Yo tout lage kò yo nan vis. Pa gen yonn ladan yo ki fè sa ki byen, non, pa menm yon sèl ladan yo.
4 ¶ Seyè a di: Moun sa yo k'ap fè mechanste yo, se konnen yo pa konnen? Y'ap souse pèp mwen an pou yo ka viv. Pa gen yonn ladan yo ki rele non mwen!
5 Men tou, yo pral sezi, yo pral tranble paske Bondye la avèk moun ki mache dwat yo.
6 Y'ap pase sa malere yo gen lide fè a nan betiz, men se nan Seyè a malere yo mete konfyans yo.
7 Oo! Kilè Bondye va soti sou mòn Siyon an pou l' vin delivre pèp Izrayèl la? Lè Seyè a va fè pèp li a kanpe ankò, pitit pitit Jakòb yo pral fè fèt. Se vre wi, pèp Izrayèl la pral kontan.
15 ¶ Se yon sòm David. Seyè, ki moun ki ka rete lakay ou a? Ki moun ki ka viv sou mòn ki apa pou ou a?
2 Se moun ki fè volonte Bondye nan tout bagay, ki toujou fè sa ki byen. Se moun ki pale verite a jan l' ye nan kè li,
3 ki pa nan bay moun kout lang. Se moun ki p'ap fè zanmi l' yo anyen ki mal, ki p'ap mache fè tripotaj sou vwazinaj.
4 Li meprize tout moun Bondye vire do bay, men, li respekte tout moun ki gen krentif pou Seyè a. Li toujou kenbe pawòl li, menm si sa koute l' chè.
5 Li prete moun san mande enterè. Li p'ap pran lajan anba pou l' bay manti sou moun ki inonsan. Moun ki fè bagay sa yo p'ap janm tonbe!
16 ¶ Sè yon kantik David. Pwoteje m', Bondye, paske se bò kote ou m'ap chache pwoteksyon.
2 Mwen di Seyè a: -Se ou ki sèl Mèt mwen. Se ou menm ki tout mwen. Pa gen pase ou!
3 Tout plezi m' se pou m' toujou la avè moun k'ap sèvi Seyè a nan peyi a.
4 Moun k'ap kouri dèyè tout lòt bondye yo, se traka y'ap chache bay tèt yo. Mwen p'ap mele nan ofrann bèt y'ap fè. Mwen p'ap janm nonmen non bondye sa yo.
5 Seyè, se ou menm ki tout byen mwen. Se ou ki ban m' tou sa m' merite. Lavi m' nan men ou.
6 Ala yon bèl eritaj ki vin pou mwen! Ala kontan mwen kontan pou pòsyon pa m' lan!
7 M'ap fè lwanj Seyè a paske li ban m' bon konsèy. Menm lannwit, konsyans mwen di m' sa pou m' fè.
8 ¶ Mwen toujou mete Seyè a devan je m'. Paske li toujou bò kote m'. Anyen pa ka brannen m'.
9 Se poutèt sa, kè m' kontan anpil. Mwen santi se tout tan mwen ta chante. Ata kò mwen m'ap poze ak konfyans nan Bondye.
10 Paske ou p'ap kite m' kote mò yo ye a, ou p'ap penmèt moun k'ap sèvi ou la pouri anba tè.
11 W'a fè m' konnen chemen ki bay lavi a. Paske ou la avè m', mwen pa manke kontan. Bò kote ou, Seyè, se yon plèzi ki p'ap janm fini.
Psalm 9-16

Psalm 9-16
New International Version
Psalm 9[a][b]
For the director of music. To the tune of “The Death of the Son.” A psalm of David.
1 I will give thanks to you, Lord, with all my heart;(A)
I will tell of all your wonderful deeds.(B)
2 I will be glad and rejoice(C) in you;
I will sing the praises(D) of your name,(E) O Most High.
3 My enemies turn back;
they stumble and perish before you.
4 For you have upheld my right(F) and my cause,(G)
sitting enthroned(H) as the righteous judge.(I)
5 You have rebuked the nations(J) and destroyed the wicked;
you have blotted out their name(K) for ever and ever.
6 Endless ruin has overtaken my enemies,
you have uprooted their cities;(L)
even the memory of them(M) has perished.
7 The Lord reigns forever;(N)
he has established his throne(O) for judgment.
8 He rules the world in righteousness(P)
and judges the peoples with equity.(Q)
9 The Lord is a refuge(R) for the oppressed,(S)
a stronghold in times of trouble.(T)
10 Those who know your name(U) trust in you,
for you, Lord, have never forsaken(V) those who seek you.(W)
11 Sing the praises(X) of the Lord, enthroned in Zion;(Y)
proclaim among the nations(Z) what he has done.(AA)
12 For he who avenges blood(AB) remembers;
he does not ignore the cries of the afflicted.(AC)
13 Lord, see how my enemies(AD) persecute me!
Have mercy(AE) and lift me up from the gates of death,(AF)
14 that I may declare your praises(AG)
in the gates of Daughter Zion,(AH)
and there rejoice in your salvation.(AI)
15 The nations have fallen into the pit they have dug;(AJ)
their feet are caught in the net they have hidden.(AK)
16 The Lord is known by his acts of justice;
the wicked are ensnared by the work of their hands.[c](AL)
17 The wicked go down to the realm of the dead,(AM)
all the nations that forget God.(AN)
18 But God will never forget the needy;
the hope(AO) of the afflicted(AP) will never perish.
19 Arise,(AQ) Lord, do not let mortals triumph;(AR)
let the nations be judged(AS) in your presence.
20 Strike them with terror,(AT) Lord;
let the nations know they are only mortal.(AU)
Psalm 10[d]
2 In his arrogance the wicked man hunts down the weak,(AX)
who are caught in the schemes he devises.
3 He boasts(AY) about the cravings of his heart;
he blesses the greedy and reviles the Lord.(AZ)
4 In his pride the wicked man does not seek him;
in all his thoughts there is no room for God.(BA)
5 His ways are always prosperous;
your laws are rejected by[e] him;
he sneers at all his enemies.
6 He says to himself, “Nothing will ever shake me.”
He swears, “No one will ever do me harm.”(BB)
7 His mouth is full(BC) of lies and threats;(BD)
trouble and evil are under his tongue.(BE)
8 He lies in wait(BF) near the villages;
from ambush he murders the innocent.(BG)
His eyes watch in secret for his victims;
9 like a lion in cover he lies in wait.
He lies in wait to catch the helpless;(BH)
he catches the helpless and drags them off in his net.(BI)
10 His victims are crushed,(BJ) they collapse;
they fall under his strength.
11 He says to himself, “God will never notice;(BK)
he covers his face and never sees.”(BL)
12 Arise,(BM) Lord! Lift up your hand,(BN) O God.
Do not forget the helpless.(BO)
13 Why does the wicked man revile God?(BP)
Why does he say to himself,
“He won’t call me to account”?(BQ)
14 But you, God, see the trouble(BR) of the afflicted;
you consider their grief and take it in hand.
The victims commit themselves to you;(BS)
you are the helper(BT) of the fatherless.
15 Break the arm of the wicked man;(BU)
call the evildoer to account for his wickedness
that would not otherwise be found out.
16 The Lord is King for ever and ever;(BV)
the nations(BW) will perish from his land.
17 You, Lord, hear the desire of the afflicted;(BX)
you encourage them, and you listen to their cry,(BY)
18 defending the fatherless(BZ) and the oppressed,(CA)
so that mere earthly mortals
will never again strike terror.
Psalm 11
For the director of music. Of David.
1 In the Lord I take refuge.(CB)
How then can you say to me:
“Flee(CC) like a bird to your mountain.(CD)
2 For look, the wicked bend their bows;(CE)
they set their arrows(CF) against the strings
to shoot from the shadows(CG)
at the upright in heart.(CH)
3 When the foundations(CI) are being destroyed,
what can the righteous do?”
4 The Lord is in his holy temple;(CJ)
the Lord is on his heavenly throne.(CK)
He observes everyone on earth;(CL)
his eyes examine(CM) them.
5 The Lord examines the righteous,(CN)
but the wicked, those who love violence,
he hates with a passion.(CO)
6 On the wicked he will rain
fiery coals and burning sulfur;(CP)
a scorching wind(CQ) will be their lot.
Psalm 12[f]
For the director of music. According to sheminith.[g] A psalm of David.
1 Help, Lord, for no one is faithful anymore;(CV)
those who are loyal have vanished from the human race.
2 Everyone lies(CW) to their neighbor;
they flatter with their lips
but harbor deception in their hearts.(CX)
3 May the Lord silence all flattering lips(CY)
and every boastful tongue—(CZ)
4 those who say,
“By our tongues we will prevail;(DA)
our own lips will defend us—who is lord over us?”
5 “Because the poor are plundered(DB) and the needy groan,(DC)
I will now arise,(DD)” says the Lord.
“I will protect them(DE) from those who malign them.”
6 And the words of the Lord are flawless,(DF)
like silver purified(DG) in a crucible,(DH)
like gold[h] refined seven times.
7 You, Lord, will keep the needy safe(DI)
and will protect us forever from the wicked,(DJ)
8 who freely strut(DK) about
when what is vile is honored by the human race.
Psalm 13[i]
For the director of music. A psalm of David.
1 How long,(DL) Lord? Will you forget me(DM) forever?
How long will you hide your face(DN) from me?
2 How long must I wrestle with my thoughts(DO)
and day after day have sorrow in my heart?
How long will my enemy triumph over me?(DP)
3 Look on me(DQ) and answer,(DR) Lord my God.
Give light to my eyes,(DS) or I will sleep in death,(DT)
4 and my enemy will say, “I have overcome him,(DU)”
and my foes will rejoice when I fall.(DV)
5 But I trust in your unfailing love;(DW)
my heart rejoices in your salvation.(DX)
6 I will sing(DY) the Lord’s praise,
for he has been good to me.
Psalm 14(DZ)
For the director of music. Of David.
1 The fool[j] says in his heart,
“There is no God.”(EA)
They are corrupt, their deeds are vile;
there is no one who does good.
2 The Lord looks down from heaven(EB)
on all mankind
to see if there are any who understand,(EC)
any who seek God.(ED)
3 All have turned away,(EE) all have become corrupt;(EF)
there is no one who does good,(EG)
not even one.(EH)
4 Do all these evildoers know nothing?(EI)
They devour my people(EJ) as though eating bread;
they never call on the Lord.(EK)
5 But there they are, overwhelmed with dread,
for God is present in the company of the righteous.
6 You evildoers frustrate the plans of the poor,
but the Lord is their refuge.(EL)
7 Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion!(EM)
When the Lord restores(EN) his people,
let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad!
Psalm 15
A psalm of David.
2 The one whose walk is blameless,(ER)
who does what is righteous,
who speaks the truth(ES) from their heart;
3 whose tongue utters no slander,(ET)
who does no wrong to a neighbor,
and casts no slur on others;
4 who despises a vile person
but honors(EU) those who fear the Lord;
who keeps an oath(EV) even when it hurts,
and does not change their mind;
5 who lends money to the poor without interest;(EW)
who does not accept a bribe(EX) against the innocent.
Whoever does these things
will never be shaken.(EY)
Psalm 16
A miktam[k] of David.
2 I say to the Lord, “You are my Lord;(FB)
apart from you I have no good thing.”(FC)
3 I say of the holy people(FD) who are in the land,(FE)
“They are the noble ones in whom is all my delight.”
4 Those who run after other gods(FF) will suffer(FG) more and more.
I will not pour out libations of blood to such gods
or take up their names(FH) on my lips.
5 Lord, you alone are my portion(FI) and my cup;(FJ)
you make my lot(FK) secure.
6 The boundary lines(FL) have fallen for me in pleasant places;
surely I have a delightful inheritance.(FM)
7 I will praise the Lord, who counsels me;(FN)
even at night(FO) my heart instructs me.
8 I keep my eyes always on the Lord.
With him at my right hand,(FP) I will not be shaken.(FQ)
9 Therefore my heart is glad(FR) and my tongue rejoices;
my body also will rest secure,(FS)
10 because you will not abandon me to the realm of the dead,(FT)
nor will you let your faithful[l] one(FU) see decay.(FV)
11 You make known to me the path of life;(FW)
you will fill me with joy in your presence,(FX)
with eternal pleasures(FY) at your right hand.(FZ)

Psalm 9-16
King James Version
9 I will praise thee, O Lord, with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.
2 I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O thou most High.
3 When mine enemies are turned back, they shall fall and perish at thy presence.
4 For thou hast maintained my right and my cause; thou satest in the throne judging right.
5 Thou hast rebuked the heathen, thou hast destroyed the wicked, thou hast put out their name for ever and ever.
6 O thou enemy, destructions are come to a perpetual end: and thou hast destroyed cities; their memorial is perished with them.
7 But the Lord shall endure for ever: he hath prepared his throne for judgment.
8 And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness.
9 The Lord also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.
10 And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, Lord, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.
11 Sing praises to the Lord, which dwelleth in Zion: declare among the people his doings.
12 When he maketh inquisition for blood, he remembereth them: he forgetteth not the cry of the humble.
13 Have mercy upon me, O Lord; consider my trouble which I suffer of them that hate me, thou that liftest me up from the gates of death:
14 That I may shew forth all thy praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion: I will rejoice in thy salvation.
15 The heathen are sunk down in the pit that they made: in the net which they hid is their own foot taken.
16 The Lord is known by the judgment which he executeth: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah.
17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.
18 For the needy shall not always be forgotten: the expectation of the poor shall not perish for ever.
19 Arise, O Lord; let not man prevail: let the heathen be judged in thy sight.
20 Put them in fear, O Lord: that the nations may know themselves to be but men. Selah.
10 Why standest thou afar off, O Lord? why hidest thou thyself in times of trouble?
2 The wicked in his pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined.
3 For the wicked boasteth of his heart's desire, and blesseth the covetous, whom the Lord abhorreth.
4 The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts.
5 His ways are always grievous; thy judgments are far above out of his sight: as for all his enemies, he puffeth at them.
6 He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for I shall never be in adversity.
7 His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue is mischief and vanity.
8 He sitteth in the lurking places of the villages: in the secret places doth he murder the innocent: his eyes are privily set against the poor.
9 He lieth in wait secretly as a lion in his den: he lieth in wait to catch the poor: he doth catch the poor, when he draweth him into his net.
10 He croucheth, and humbleth himself, that the poor may fall by his strong ones.
11 He hath said in his heart, God hath forgotten: he hideth his face; he will never see it.
12 Arise, O Lord; O God, lift up thine hand: forget not the humble.
13 Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? he hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require it.
14 Thou hast seen it; for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to requite it with thy hand: the poor committeth himself unto thee; thou art the helper of the fatherless.
15 Break thou the arm of the wicked and the evil man: seek out his wickedness till thou find none.
16 The Lord is King for ever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land.
17 Lord, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear:
18 To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may no more oppress.
11 In the Lord put I my trust: how say ye to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain?
2 For, lo, the wicked bend their bow, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart.
3 If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?
4 The Lord is in his holy temple, the Lord's throne is in heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men.
5 The Lord trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.
6 Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and an horrible tempest: this shall be the portion of their cup.
7 For the righteous Lord loveth righteousness; his countenance doth behold the upright.
12 Help, Lord; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men.
2 They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: with flattering lips and with a double heart do they speak.
3 The Lord shall cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things:
4 Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us?
5 For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith the Lord; I will set him in safety from him that puffeth at him.
6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
7 Thou shalt keep them, O Lord, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.
8 The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted.
13 How long wilt thou forget me, O Lord? for ever? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me?
2 How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart daily? how long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?
3 Consider and hear me, O Lord my God: lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;
4 Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him; and those that trouble me rejoice when I am moved.
5 But I have trusted in thy mercy; my heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.
6 I will sing unto the Lord, because he hath dealt bountifully with me.
14 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
2 The Lord looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God.
3 They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
4 Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon the Lord.
5 There were they in great fear: for God is in the generation of the righteous.
6 Ye have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the Lord is his refuge.
7 Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! when the Lord bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
15 Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?
2 He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.
3 He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.
4 In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth them that fear the Lord. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not.
5 He that putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.
16 Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust.
2 O my soul, thou hast said unto the Lord, Thou art my Lord: my goodness extendeth not to thee;
3 But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.
4 Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another god: their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take up their names into my lips.
5 The Lord is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot.
6 The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.
7 I will bless the Lord, who hath given me counsel: my reins also instruct me in the night seasons.
8 I have set the Lord always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope.
10 For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.
11 Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
