Psalms Chapter 87
American Standard Version

82:1God standeth in the congregation of God; He judgeth among the gods. 82:2How long will ye judge unjustly, And respect the persons of the wicked? Selah 82:3Judge the poor and fatherless: Do justice to the afflicted and destitute. 82:4Rescue the poor and needy: Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked. 82:5They know not, neither do they understand; They walk to and fro in darkness: All the foundations of the earth are shaken. 82:6I said, Ye are gods, And all of you sons of the Most High. 82:7Nevertheless ye shall die like men, And fall like one of the princes. 82:8Arise, O God, judge the earth; For thou shalt inherit all the nations. Psalm 83 A song. A Psalm of Asaph.

83:1O God, keep not thou silence: Hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God. 83:2For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult; And they that hate thee have lifted up the head. 83:3Thy take crafty counsel against thy people, And consult together against thy hidden ones. 83:4They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; That the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance. 83:5For they have consulted together with one consent; Against thee do they make a covenant: 83:6The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab, and the Hagarenes; 83:7Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre: 83:8Assyria also is joined with them; They have helped the children of Lot. Selah 83:9Do thou unto them as unto Midian, As to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the river Kishon; 83:10Who perished at Endor, Who became as dung for the earth. 83:11Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb; Yea, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna; 83:12Who said, Let us take to ourselves in possession The habitations of God. 83:13O my God, make them like the whirling dust; As stubble before the wind. 83:14As the fire that burneth the forest, And as the flame that setteth the mountains on fire, 83:15So pursue them with thy tempest, And terrify them with thy storm. 83:16Fill their faces with confusion, That they may seek thy name, O Jehovah. 83:17Let them be put to shame and dismayed for ever; Yea, let them be confounded and perish; 83:18That they may know that thou alone, whose name is Jehovah, Art the Most High over all the earth. Psalm 84 For the Chief Musician; set to the Gittith. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.

84:1How amiable are thy tabernacles, O Jehovah of hosts! 84:2My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of Jehovah; My heart and my flesh cry out unto the living God. 84:3Yea, the sparrow hath found her a house, And the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, Even thine altars, O Jehovah of hosts, My King, and my God. 84:4Blessed are they that dwell in thy house: They will be still praising thee. Selah 84:5Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee; In whose heart are the highways [to Zion]. 84:6Passing through the valley of Weeping they make it a place of springs; Yea, the early rain covereth it with blessings. 84:7They go from strength to strength; Every one of them appeareth before God in Zion. 84:8O Jehovah God of hosts, hear my prayer; Give ear, O God of Jacob. Selah 84:9Behold, O God our shield, And look upon the face of thine anointed. 84:10For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, Than to dwell in the tents of wickedness. 84:11For Jehovah God is a sun and a shield: Jehovah will give grace and glory; No good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. 84:12O Jehovah of hosts, Blessed is the man that trusteth in thee. Psalm 85 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.

85:1Jehovah, thou hast been favorable unto thy land; Thou hast brought back the captivity of Jacob. 85:2Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people; Thou hast covered all their sin. Selah 85:3Thou hast taken away all thy wrath; Thou hast turned [thyself] from the fierceness of thine anger. 85:4Turn us, O God of our salvation, And cause thine indignation toward us to cease. 85:5Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? Wilt thou draw out thine anger to all generations? 85:6Wilt thou not quicken us again, That thy people may rejoice in thee? 85:7Show us thy lovingkindness, O Jehovah, And grant us thy salvation. 85:8I will hear what God Jehovah will speak; For he will speak peace unto his people, and to his saints: But let them not turn again to folly. 85:9Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him, That glory may dwell in our land. 85:10Mercy and truth are met together; Righteousness and peace have kissed each other. 85:11Truth springeth out of the earth; And righteousness hath looked down from heaven. 85:12Yea, Jehovah will give that which is good; And our land shall yield its increase. 85:13Righteousness shall go before him, And shall make his footsteps a way [to walk in]. Psalm 86 A Prayer of David

86:1Bow down thine ear, O Jehovah, and answer me; For I am poor and needy. 86:2Preserve my soul; for I am godly: O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee. 86:3Be merciful unto me, O Lord; For unto thee do I cry all the day long. 86:4Rejoice the soul of thy servant; For unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul. 86:5For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive, And abundant in lovingkindness unto all them that call upon thee. 86:6Give ear, O Jehovah, unto my prayer; And hearken unto the voice of my supplications. 86:7In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee; For thou wilt answer me. 86:8There is none like unto thee among the gods, O Lord; Neither [are there any works] like unto thy works. 86:9All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O Lord; And they shall glorify thy name. 86:10For thou art great, and doest wondrous things: Thou art God alone. 86:11Teach me thy way, O Jehovah; I will walk in thy truth: Unite my heart to fear thy name. 86:12I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with my whole heart; And I will glorify thy name for evermore. 86:13For great is thy lovingkindness toward me; And thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest Sheol. 86:14O God, the proud are risen up against me, And a company of violent men have sought after my soul, And have not set thee before them. 86:15But thou, O Lord, art a God merciful and gracious, Slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness and truth. 86:16Oh turn unto me, and have mercy upon me; Give thy strength unto thy servant, And save the son of thy handmaid. 86:17Show me a token for good, That they who hate me may see it, and be put to shame, Because thou, Jehovah, hast helped me, and comforted me. Psalm 87 A Psalm of the sons of Korah; a Song.

87:1His foundation is in the holy mountains. 87:2Jehovah loveth the gates of Zion More than all the dwellings of Jacob. 87:3Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. Selah 87:4I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon as among them that know me: Behold, Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia: This one was born there. 87:5Yea, of Zion it shall be said, This one and that one was born in her; And the Most High himself will establish her. 87:6Jehovah will count, when he writeth up the peoples, This one was born there. Selah 87:7They that sing as well as they that dance [shall say], All my fountains are in thee. Psalm 88 A Song, a Psalm of the sons of Korah; for the Chief Musician; set to Mahalath Leannoth. Maschil of Heman the Ezrahite.

88:1O Jehovah, the God of my salvation, I have cried day and night before thee. 88:2Let my prayer enter into thy presence; Incline thine ear unto my cry. 88:3For my soul is full of troubles, And my life draweth nigh unto Sheol. 88:4I am reckoned with them that go down into the pit; I am as a man that hath no help, 88:5Cast off among the dead, Like the slain that lie in the grave, Whom thou rememberest no more, And they are cut off from thy hand. 88:6Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, In dark places, in the deeps. 88:7Thy wrath lieth hard upon me, And thou hast afflicted me with all thy waves. Selah 88:8Thou hast put mine acquaintance far from me; Thou hast made me an abomination unto them: I am shut up, and I cannot come forth. 88:9Mine eye wasteth away by reason of affliction: I have called daily upon thee, O Jehovah; I have spread forth my hands unto thee. 88:10Wilt thou show wonders to the dead? Shall they that are decreased arise and praise thee? Selah 88:11Shall thy lovingkindness be declared in the grave? Or thy faithfulness in Destruction? 88:12Shall thy wonders be known in the dark? And thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness? 88:13But unto thee, O Jehovah, have I cried; And in the morning shall my prayer come before thee. 88:14Jehovah, why castest thou off my soul? Why hidest thou thy face from me? 88:15I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up: While I suffer thy terrors I am distracted. 88:16Thy fierce wrath is gone over me; Thy terrors have cut me off. 88:17They came round about me like water all the day long; They compassed me about together. 88:18Lover and friend hast thou put far from me, And mine acquaintance into darkness. Psalm 89 Maschil of Ethan the Ezrahite.

89:1I will sing of the lovingkindness of Jehovah for ever: With my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations. 89:2For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever; Thy faithfulness wilt thou establish in the very heavens. 89:3I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my servant: 89:4Thy seed will I establish for ever, And build up thy throne to all generations. Selah 89:5And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O Jehovah; Thy faithfulness also in the assembly of the holy ones. 89:6For who in the skies can be compared unto Jehovah? Who among the sons of the mighty is like unto Jehovah, 89:7A God very terrible in the council of the holy ones, And to be feared above all them that are round about him? 89:8O Jehovah God of hosts, Who is a mighty one, like unto thee, O Jehovah? And thy faithfulness is round about thee. 89:9Thou rulest the pride of the sea: When the waves thereof arise, thou stillest them. 89:10Thou hast broken Rahab in pieces, as one that is slain; Thou hast scattered thine enemies with the arm of thy strength. 89:11The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine: The world and the fulness thereof, thou hast founded them. 89:12The north and the south, thou hast created them: Tabor and Hermon rejoice in thy name. 89:13Thou hast a mighty arm; Strong is thy hand, and high is thy right hand. 89:14Righteousness and justice are the foundation of thy throne: Lovingkindness and truth go before thy face. 89:15Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: They walk, O Jehovah, in the light of thy countenance. 89:16In thy name do they rejoice all the day; And in thy righteousness are they exalted. 89:17For thou art the glory of their strength; And in thy favor our horn shall be exalted. 89:18For our shield belongeth unto Jehovah; And our king to the Holy One of Israel. 89:19Then thou spakest in vision to thy saints, And saidst, I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people. 89:20I have found David my servant; With my holy oil have I anointed him: 89:21With whom my hand shall be established; Mine arm also shall strengthen him. 89:22The enemy shall not exact from him, Nor the son of wickedness afflict him. 89:23And I will beat down his adversaries before him, And smite them that hate him. 89:24But my faithfulness and my lovingkindness shall be with him; And in my name shall his horn be exalted. 89:25I will set his hand also on the sea, And his right hand on the rivers. 89:26He shall cry unto me, Thou art my Father, My God, and the rock of my salvation. 89:27I also will make him [my] first-born, The highest of the kings of the earth. 89:28My lovingkindness will I keep for him for evermore; And my covenant shall stand fast with him. 89:29His seed also will I make to endure for ever, And his throne as the days of heaven. 89:30If his children forsake my law, And walk not in mine ordinances; 89:31If they break my statutes, And keep not my commandments; 89:32Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, And their iniquity with stripes. 89:33But my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, Nor suffer my faithfulness to fail. 89:34My covenant will I not break, Nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips. 89:35Once have I sworn by my holiness: I will not lie unto David: 89:36His seed shall endure for ever, And his throne as the sun before me. 89:37It shall be established for ever as the moon, And [as] the faithful witness in the sky. Selah 89:38But thou hast cast off and rejected, Thou hast been wroth with thine anointed. 89:39Thou hast abhorred the covenant of thy servant: Thou hast profaned his crown [by casting it] to the ground. 89:40Thou hast broken down all his hedges; Thou hast brought his strongholds to ruin. 89:41All that pass by the way rob him: He is become a reproach to his neighbors. 89:42Thou hast exalted the right hand of his adversaries; Thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice. 89:43Yea, thou turnest back the edge of his sword, And hast not made him to stand in the battle. 89:44Thou hast made his brightness to cease, And cast his throne down to the ground. 89:45The days of his youth hast thou shortened: Thou hast covered him with shame. Selah 89:46How long, O Jehovah? wilt thou hide thyself for ever? [How long] shall thy wrath burn like fire? 89:47Oh remember how short my time is: For what vanity hast thou created all the children of men! 89:48What man is he that shall live and not see death, That shall deliver his soul from the power of Sheol? Selah 89:49Lord, where are thy former lovingkindnesses, Which thou swarest unto David in thy faithfulness? 89:50Remember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants; How I do bear in my bosom [the reproach of] all the mighty peoples, 89:51Wherewith thine enemies have reproached, O Jehovah, Wherewith they have reproached the footsteps of thine anointed. 89:52Blessed be Jehovah for evermore. Amen, and Amen. BOOK IV Psalm 90 A Prayer of Moses the man of God.

90:1Lord, thou hast been our dwelling-place In all generations. 90:2Before the mountains were brought forth, Or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, Even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God. 90:3Thou turnest man to destruction, And sayest, Return, ye children of men. 90:4For a thousand years in thy sight Are but as yesterday when it is past, And as a watch in the night. 90:5Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep: In the morning they are like grass which groweth up. 90:6In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth up; In the evening it is cut down, and withereth. 90:7For we are consumed in thine anger, And in thy wrath are we troubled. 90:8Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, Our secret sins in the light of thy countenance. 90:9For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: We bring our years to an end as a sigh. 90:10The days of our years are threescore years and ten, Or even by reason of strength fourscore years; Yet is their pride but labor and sorrow; For it is soon gone, and we fly away. 90:11Who knoweth the power of thine anger, And thy wrath according to the fear that is due unto thee? 90:12So teach us to number our days, That we may get us a heart of wisdom. 90:13Return, O Jehovah; how long? And let it repent thee concerning thy servants. 90:14Oh satisfy us in the morning with thy lovingkindness, That we may rejoice and be glad all our days. 90:15Make us glad according to the days wherein thou hast afflicted us, And the years wherein we have seen evil. 90:16Let thy work appear unto thy servants, And thy glory upon their children. 90:17And let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us; And establish thou the work of our hands upon us; Yea, the work of our hands establish thou it. Psalm 91

91:1He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. 91:2I will say of Jehovah, He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in whom I trust. 91:3For he will deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, And from the deadly pestilence. 91:4He will cover thee with his pinions, And under his wings shalt thou take refuge: His truth is a shield and a buckler. 91:5Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night, Nor for the arrow that flieth by day; 91:6For the pestilence that walketh in darkness, Nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. 91:7A thousand shall fall at thy side, And ten thousand at thy right hand; [But] it shall not come nigh thee. 91:8Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold, And see the reward of the wicked. 91:9For thou, O Jehovah, art my refuge! Thou hast made the Most High thy habitation; 91:10There shall no evil befall thee, Neither shall any plague come nigh thy tent. 91:11For he will give his angels charge over thee, To keep thee in all thy ways. 91:12They shall bear thee up in their hands, Lest thou dash thy foot against a stone. 91:13Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: The young lion and the serpent shalt thou trample under foot. 91:14Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name. 91:15He shall call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble: I will deliver him, and honor him. 91:16With long life will I satisfy him, And show him my salvation. Psalm 92 A Psalm, a Song for the sabbath day.

92:1It is a good thing to give thanks unto Jehovah, And to sing praises unto thy name, O Most High; 92:2To show forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, And thy faithfulness every night, 92:3With an instrument of ten strings, and with the psaltery; With a solemn sound upon the harp. 92:4For thou, Jehovah, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands. 92:5How great are thy works, O Jehovah! Thy thoughts are very deep. 92:6A brutish man knoweth not; Neither doth a fool understand this: 92:7When the wicked spring as the grass, And when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; It is that they shall be destroyed for ever. 92:8But thou, O Jehovah, art on high for evermore. 92:9For, lo, thine enemies, O Jehovah, For, lo, thine enemies shall perish; All the workers of iniquity shall be scattered. 92:10But my horn hast thou exalted like [the horn of] the wild-ox: I am anointed with fresh oil. 92:11Mine eye also hath seen [my desire] on mine enemies, Mine ears have heard [my desire] of the evil-doers that rise up against me. 92:12The righteous shall flourish like the palm-tree: He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon. 92:13They are planted in the house of Jehovah; They shall flourish in the courts of our God. 92:14They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; They shall be full of sap and green: 92:15To show that Jehovah is upright; He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him. Psalm 93

93:1Jehovah reigneth; he is clothed with majesty; Jehovah is clothed with strength; he hath girded himself therewith: The world also is established, that it cannot be moved. 93:2Thy throne is established of old: Thou art from everlasting. 93:3The floods have lifted up, O Jehovah, The floods have lifted up their voice; The floods lift up their waves. 93:4Above the voices of many waters, The mighty breakers of the sea, Jehovah on high is mighty. 93:5Thy testimonies are very sure: Holiness becometh thy house, O Jehovah, for evermore. Psalm 94

94:1O Jehovah, thou God to whom vengeance belongeth, Thou God to whom vengeance belongeth, shine forth. 94:2Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth: Render to the proud [their] desert. 94:3Jehovah, how long shall the wicked, How long shall the wicked triumph? 94:4They prate, they speak arrogantly: All the workers of iniquity boast themselves. 94:5They break in pieces thy people, O Jehovah, And afflict thy heritage. 94:6They slay the widow and the sojourner, And murder the fatherless. 94:7And they say, Jehovah will not see, Neither will the God of Jacob consider. 94:8Consider, ye brutish among the people; And ye fools, when will ye be wise? 94:9He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? He that formed the eye, shall he not see? 94:10He that chastiseth the nations, shall not he correct, [Even] he that teacheth man knowledge? 94:11Jehovah knoweth the thoughts of man, That they are vanity. 94:12Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O Jehovah, And teachest out of thy law; 94:13That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity, Until the pit be digged for the wicked. 94:14For Jehovah will not cast off his people, Neither will he forsake his inheritance. 94:15For judgment shall return unto righteousness; And all the upright in heart shall follow it. 94:16Who will rise up for me against the evil-doers? Who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity? 94:17Unless Jehovah had been my help, My soul had soon dwelt in silence. 94:18When I said, My foot slippeth; Thy lovingkindness, O Jehovah, held me up. 94:19In the multitude of my thoughts within me Thy comforts delight my soul. 94:20Shall the throne of wickedness have fellowship with thee, Which frameth mischief by statute? 94:21They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, And condemn the innocent blood. 94:22But Jehovah hath been my high tower, And my God the rock of my refuge. 94:23And he hath brought upon them their own iniquity, And will cut them off in their own wickedness; Jehovah our God will cut them off. Psalm 95

95:1Oh come, let us sing unto Jehovah; Let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation. 95:2Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving; Let us make a joyful noise unto him with psalms. 95:3For Jehovah is a great God, And a great King above all gods. 95:4In his hand are the deep places of the earth; The heights of the mountains are his also. 95:5The sea is his, and he made it; And his hands formed the dry land. 95:6Oh come, let us worship and bow down; Let us kneel before Jehovah our Maker: 95:7For he is our God, And we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. To-day, oh that ye would hear his voice! 95:8Harden not your heart, as at Meribah, As in the day of Massah in the wilderness; 95:9When your fathers tempted me, Proved me, and saw my work. 95:10Forty years long was I grieved with [that] generation, And said, It is a people that do err in their heart, And they have not known my ways: 95:11Wherefore I sware in my wrath, That they should not enter into my rest. Psalm 96

96:1Oh sing unto Jehovah a new song: Sing unto Jehovah, all the earth. 96:2Sing unto Jehovah, bless his name; Show forth his salvation from day to day. 96:3Declare his glory among the nations, His marvellous works among all the peoples. 96:4For great is Jehovah, and greatly to be praised: He is to be feared above all gods. 96:5For all the gods of the peoples are idols; But Jehovah made the heavens. 96:6Honor and majesty are before him: Strength and beauty are in his sanctuary. 96:7Ascribe unto Jehovah, ye kindreds of the peoples, Ascribe unto Jehovah glory and strength. 96:8Ascribe unto Jehovah the glory due unto his name: Bring an offering, and come into his courts. 96:9Oh worship Jehovah in holy array: Tremble before him, all the earth. 96:10Say among the nations, Jehovah reigneth: The world also is established that it cannot be moved: He will judge the peoples with equity. 96:11Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof; 96:12Let the field exult, and all that is therein; Then shall all the trees of the wood sing for joy 96:13Before Jehovah; for he cometh, For he cometh to judge the earth: He will judge the world with righteousness, And the peoples with his truth. Psalm 97

97:1Jehovah reigneth; let the earth rejoice; Let the multitude of isles be glad. 97:2Clouds and darkness are round about him: Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne. 97:3A fire goeth before him, And burneth up his adversaries round about. 97:4His lightnings lightened the world: The earth saw, and trembled. 97:5The mountains melted like wax at the presence of Jehovah, At the presence of the Lord of the whole earth. 97:6The heavens declare his righteousness, And all the peoples have seen his glory. 97:7Let all them be put to shame that serve graven images, That boast themselves of idols: Worship him, all ye gods. 97:8Zion heard and was glad, And the daughters of Judah rejoiced, Because of thy judgments, O Jehovah. 97:9For thou, Jehovah, art most high above all the earth: Thou art exalted far above all gods. 97:10O ye that love Jehovah, hate evil: He preserveth the souls of his saints; He delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked. 97:11Light is sown for the righteous, And gladness for the upright in heart. 97:12Be glad in Jehovah, ye righteous; And give thanks to his holy memorial [name]. Psalm 98 A Psalm.

98:1Oh sing unto Jehovah a new song; For he hath done marvellous things: His right hand, and his holy arm, hath wrought salvation for him. 98:2Jehovah hath made known his salvation: His righteousness hath he openly showed in the sight of the nations. 98:3He hath remembered his lovingkindness and his faithfulness toward the house of Israel: All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God. 98:4Make a joyful noise unto Jehovah, all the earth: Break forth and sing for joy, yea, sing praises. 98:5Sing praises unto Jehovah with the harp; With the harp and the voice of melody. 98:6With trumpets and sound of cornet Make a joyful noise before the King, Jehovah. 98:7Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof; The world, and they that dwell therein; 98:8Let the floods clap their hands; Let the hills sing for joy together 98:9Before Jehovah; for he cometh to judge the earth: He will judge the world with righteousness, And the peoples with equity. Psalm 99

99:1Jehovah reigneth; let the peoples tremble: He sitteth [above] the cherubim; let the earth be moved. 99:2Jehovah is great in Zion; And he is high above all the peoples. 99:3Let them praise thy great and terrible name: Holy is he. 99:4The king`s strength also loveth justice; Thou dost establish equity; Thou executest justice and righteousness in Jacob. 99:5Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And worship at his footstool: Holy is he. 99:6Moses and Aaron among his priests, And Samuel among them that call upon his name; They called upon Jehovah, and he answered them. 99:7He spake unto them in the pillar of cloud: They kept his testimonies, And the statute that he gave them. 99:8Thou answeredst them, O Jehovah our God: Thou wast a God that forgavest them, Though thou tookest vengeance of their doings. 99:9Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And worship at his holy hill; For Jehovah our God is holy. Psalm 100 A Psalm of thanksgiving.

100:1Make a joyful noise unto Jehovah, all ye lands. 100:2Serve Jehovah with gladness: Come before his presence with singing. 100:3Know ye that Jehovah, he is God: It is he that hath made us, and we are his; We are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. 100:4Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, And into his courts with praise: Give thanks unto him, and bless his name. 100:5For Jehovah is good; his lovingkindness [endureth] for ever, And his faithfulness unto all generations. Psalm 101 A Psalm of David.

101:1I will sing of lovingkindness and justice: Unto thee, O Jehovah, will I sing praises. 101:2I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way: Oh when wilt thou come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart. 101:3I will set no base thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; It shall not cleave unto me. 101:4A perverse heart shall depart from me: I will know no evil thing. 101:5Whoso privily slandereth his neighbor, him will I destroy: Him that hath a high look and a proud heart will I not suffer. 101:6Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: He that walketh in a perfect way, he shall minister unto me. 101:7He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: He that speaketh falsehood shall not be established before mine eyes. 101:8Morning by morning will I destroy all the wicked of the land; To cut off all the workers of iniquity from the city of Jehovah. Psalm 102 A Prayer of the afflicted, when he is overwhelmed, and poureth out his complaint before Jehovah.
