King James Version
To
the
Overseer.
--
A
Psalm
of
David.
I have
diligently
expected
Jehovah,
And He inclineth
to
me, and heareth
my cry ,
I waited
patiently
for
the
LORD;
and he inclined
unto
me, and heard
my cry .
And
He doth
cause
me to
come
up From
a
pit
of desolation
--
from
mire
of mud
, And He
raiseth
up
on
a
rock
my feet, He
is
establishing
my steps
.
He brought
me up also
out
of an
horrible
pit,
out
of the
miry
clay
, and set
my feet upon
a
rock
, and
established
my goings
.
And He putteth
in
my
mouth
a new song, `
Praise to
our God .'
Many do
see and fear, and trust in Jehovah
.
And he hath
put
a new song in
my
mouth
, even
praise unto
our God :
many shall
see it,
and fear, and shall
trust in the
LORD
.
O
the
happiness
of
the
man Who
hath
made
Jehovah
his trust, And hath
not turned
unto
the proud, And
those
turning
aside to lies.
Blessed
is
that
man that
maketh
the
LORD
his trust, and respecteth
not the proud, nor
such
as
turn
aside to lies.
Much
hast
Thou
done
, Jehovah
my God ;
Thy wonders
and Thy thoughts toward
us,
There
is
none
to arrange
unto Thee ,
I declare and speak :
They have
been
more than to
be numbered.
Many
, O
LORD
my God ,
are
thy wonderful
works
which
thou
hast
done,
and thy thoughts which
are
to us-ward:
they
cannot
be
reckoned
up
in
order
unto thee :
if
I would
declare and speak of
them,
they are
more than can
be numbered.
Sacrifice and present
Thou hast
not desired,
Ears Thou
hast prepared
for
me,
Burnt and sin -
offering Thou
hast not asked
.
Sacrifice and offering
thou didst
not desire;
mine
ears hast thou
opened:
burnt offering
and sin offering hast thou
not required
.
Then said I, `
Lo, I have
come ,'
In the roll
of the book it is written of me,
Then said I, Lo, I come :
in the volume
of the book it is written of me,
To do Thy pleasure
, my God ,
I
have
delighted
, And
Thy law `
is '
within my heart.
I
delight
to do thy will
, O
my God :
yea
, thy law is within my heart.
I have proclaimed
tidings
of
righteousness In the great assembly,
lo, my
lips
I restrain
not, O Jehovah
, Thou hast
known
.
I have preached
righteousness in the great congregation:
lo, I have
not refrained
my
lips
, O LORD
, thou knowest
.
Thy
righteousness
I have not concealed
In
the
midst
of
my heart ,
Thy faithfulness and Thy salvation I
have
told,
I have not hidden
Thy kindness
and Thy truth ,
To
the great assembly
.
I have not hid
thy
righteousness
within
my heart ;
I
have
declared
thy faithfulness and thy salvation :
I have not concealed
thy lovingkindness
and thy truth from
the great congregation
.
Thou,
O
Jehovah,
restrainest
not Thy mercies from me, Thy kindness
and Thy truth do
continually keep
me.
Withhold
not thou
thy tender
mercies from me, O
LORD:
let
thy lovingkindness
and thy truth continually preserve
me.
For compassed
me
have
evils
innumerable ,
Overtaken
me
have mine iniquities, And
I have
not been
able to see
; They have
been
more than the hairs of my
head ,
And
my heart hath
forsaken
me.
For innumerable evils
have compassed
me
about:
mine iniquities have
taken
hold
upon
me
, so
that
I am
not able to look
up
; they are
more than the hairs of mine
head :
therefore
my heart faileth
me.
Be pleased, O Jehovah
, to deliver me ,
O Jehovah
, for
my
help
make haste.
Be pleased, O LORD
, to deliver me :
O LORD
, make haste to
help
me
.
They
are
ashamed and confounded together ,
Who
are
seeking
my soul to destroy it ,
They
are
turned
backward ,
And are
ashamed,
who
are
desiring
my
evil.
Let
them
be
ashamed and confounded together that
seek
after
my soul to destroy it ;
let
them
be
driven
backward and put
to
shame
that
wish
me
evil.
They
are
desolate because
of their shame ,
Who
are
saying
to
me, `
Aha, aha. '
Let
them
be
desolate for
a
reward
of their shame that
say
unto
me, Aha, aha.
All seeking
Thee rejoice and are
glad in Thee ,
Those
loving
Thy salvation say continually, `Jehovah
is
magnified. '
Let
all those
that
seek
thee rejoice and be
glad in thee :
let
such
as
love
thy salvation say continually, The
LORD
be
magnified.
And
I `
am '
poor and needy ,
The Lord doth
devise
for
me .
My help and my deliverer `art'
Thou
, O my God ,
tarry
Thou
not
.
But
I am poor and needy ;
yet
the Lord thinketh
upon
me :
thou
art
my help and my deliverer ;
make
no
tarrying
, O my God.
