1 Those who live in the shelter of the Most High

will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty.

2 This I declare about theLord:

He alone is my refuge, my place of safety;

he is my God, and I trust him.

3 For he will rescue you from every trap

and protect you from deadly disease.

4 He will cover you with his feathers.

He will shelter you with his wings.

His faithful promises are your armor and protection.

5 Do not be afraid of the terrors of the night,

nor the arrow that flies in the day.

6 Do not dread the disease that stalks in darkness,

nor the disaster that strikes at midday.

7 Though a thousand fall at your side,

though ten thousand are dying around you,

these evils will not touch you.

8 Just open your eyes,

and see how the wicked are punished.

9 If you make theLordyour refuge,

if you make the Most High your shelter,

10 no evil will conquer you;

no plague will come near your home.

11 For he will order his angels

to protect you wherever you go.

12 They will hold you up with their hands

so you won’t even hurt your foot on a stone.

13 You will trample upon lions and cobras;

you will crush fierce lions and serpents under your feet!

14 TheLordsays, “I will rescue those who love me.

I will protect those who trust in my name.

15 When they call on me, I will answer;

I will be with them in trouble.

I will rescue and honor them.

16 I will reward them with a long life

and give them my salvation.”

A psalm. A song to be sung on the Sabbath Day.

1 It is good to give thanks to theLord,

to sing praises to the Most High.

2 It is good to proclaim your unfailing love in the morning,

your faithfulness in the evening,

3 accompanied by a ten-stringed instrument, a harp,

and the melody of a lyre.

4 You thrill me,Lord, with all you have done for me!

I sing for joy because of what you have done.

5 OLord, what great works you do!

And how deep are your thoughts.

6 Only a simpleton would not know,

and only a fool would not understand this:

7 Though the wicked sprout like weeds

and evildoers flourish,

they will be destroyed forever.

8 But you, OLord, will be exalted forever.

9 Your enemies,Lord, will surely perish;

all evildoers will be scattered.

10 But you have made me as strong as a wild ox.

You have anointed me with the finest oil.

11 My eyes have seen the downfall of my enemies;

my ears have heard the defeat of my wicked opponents.

12 But the godly will flourish like palm trees

and grow strong like the cedars of Lebanon.

13 For they are transplanted to theLord’s own house.

They flourish in the courts of our God.

14 Even in old age they will still produce fruit;

they will remain vital and green.

15 They will declare, “TheLordis just!

He is my rock!

There is no evil in him!”

1 TheLordis king! He is robed in majesty.

Indeed, theLordis robed in majesty and armed with strength.

The world stands firm

and cannot be shaken.

2 Your throne, OLord, has stood from time immemorial.

You yourself are from the everlasting past.

3 The floods have risen up, OLord.

The floods have roared like thunder;

the floods have lifted their pounding waves.

4 But mightier than the violent raging of the seas,

mightier than the breakers on the shore—

theLordabove is mightier than these!

5 Your royal laws cannot be changed.

Your reign, OLord, is holy forever and ever.

1 OLord, the God of vengeance,

O God of vengeance, let your glorious justice shine forth!

2 Arise, O Judge of the earth.

Give the proud what they deserve.

3 How long, OLord?

How long will the wicked be allowed to gloat?

4 How long will they speak with arrogance?

How long will these evil people boast?

5 They crush your people,Lord,

hurting those you claim as your own.

6 They kill widows and foreigners

and murder orphans.

7 “TheLordisn’t looking,” they say,

“and besides, the God of Israeldoesn’t care.”

8 Think again, you fools!

When will you finally catch on?

9 Is he deaf—the one who made your ears?

Is he blind—the one who formed your eyes?

10 He punishes the nations—won’t he also punish you?

He knows everything—doesn’t he also know what you are doing?

11 TheLordknows people’s thoughts;

he knows they are worthless!

12 Joyful are those you discipline,Lord,

those you teach with your instructions.

13 You give them relief from troubled times

until a pit is dug to capture the wicked.

14 TheLordwill not reject his people;

he will not abandon his special possession.

15 Judgment will again be founded on justice,

and those with virtuous hearts will pursue it.

16 Who will protect me from the wicked?

Who will stand up for me against evildoers?

17 Unless theLordhad helped me,

I would soon have settled in the silence of the grave.

18 I cried out, “I am slipping!”

but your unfailing love, OLord, supported me.

19 When doubts filled my mind,

your comfort gave me renewed hope and cheer.

20 Can unjust leaders claim that God is on their side—

leaders whose decrees permit injustice?

21 They gang up against the righteous

and condemn the innocent to death.

22 But theLordis my fortress;

my God is the mighty rock where I hide.

23 God will turn the sins of evil people back on them.

He will destroy them for their sins.

TheLordour God will destroy them.

1 Come, let us sing to theLord!

Let us shout joyfully to the Rock of our salvation.

2 Let us come to him with thanksgiving.

Let us sing psalms of praise to him.

3 For theLordis a great God,

a great King above all gods.

4 He holds in his hands the depths of the earth

and the mightiest mountains.

5 The sea belongs to him, for he made it.

His hands formed the dry land, too.

6 Come, let us worship and bow down.

Let us kneel before theLordour maker,

7 for he is our God.

We are the people he watches over,

the flock under his care.

If only you would listen to his voice today!

8 TheLordsays, “Don’t harden your hearts as Israel did at Meribah,

as they did at Massah in the wilderness.

9 For there your ancestors tested and tried my patience,

even though they saw everything I did.

10 For forty years I was angry with them, and I said,

‘They are a people whose hearts turn away from me.

They refuse to do what I tell them.’

11 So in my anger I took an oath:

‘They will never enter my place of rest.’”

and burns up all his foes.

before the Lord of all the earth.

6 The heavens proclaim his righteousness;

every nation sees his glory.

7 Those who worship idols are disgraced—

all who brag about their worthless gods—

for every god must bow to him.

8 Jerusalemhas heard and rejoiced,

and all the towns of Judah are glad

because of your justice, OLord!

9 For you, OLord, are supreme over all the earth;

you are exalted far above all gods.

10 You who love theLord, hate evil!

He protects the lives of his godly people

and rescues them from the power of the wicked.

11 Light shines on the godly,

and joy on those whose hearts are right.

12 May all who are godly rejoice in theLord

and praise his holy name!
