Psalms 1

¹Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the

wicked,

Nor standeth in the way of sinners,

Nor sitteth in the seat of scoffers:

²But his delight is in the law of Jehovah;

And on his law doth he meditate day and night.

³And he shall be like a tree planted by the streams of

water,

That bringeth forth its fruit in its season,

Whose leaf also doth not wither;

And whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

⁴The wicked are not so,

But are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.

⁵Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment,

Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

⁶For Jehovah knoweth the way of the righteous;

But the way of the wicked shall perish.

Psalms 2

¹Why do the nations rage,

And the peoples meditate a vain thing?

²The kings of the earth set themselves,

And the rulers take counsel together,

Against Jehovah, and against his anointed, [saying],

³Let us break their bonds asunder,

And cast away their cords from us.

⁴He that sitteth in the heavens will laugh:

The Lord will have them in derision.

⁵Then will he speak unto them in his wrath,

And vex them in his sore displeasure:

⁶Yet I have set my king

Upon my holy hill of Zion.

⁷I will tell of the decree:

Jehovah said unto me, Thou art my son;

This day have I begotten thee.

⁸Ask of me, and I will give [thee] the nations for thine

inheritance,

And the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.

⁹Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron;

Thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.

¹⁰Now therefore be wise, O ye kings:

Be instructed, ye judges of the earth.

¹¹Serve Jehovah with fear,

And rejoice with trembling.

¹²Kiss the son, lest he be angry, and ye perish in the way,

For his wrath will soon be kindled.

Blessed are all they that take refuge in him.

Psalms 3

¹Jehovah, how are mine adversaries increased!

Many are they that rise up against me.

²Many there are that say of my soul,

There is no help for him in God.

Selah

³But thou, O Jehovah, art a shield about me;

My glory and the lifter up of my head.

⁴I cry unto Jehovah with my voice,

And he answereth me out of his holy hill.

Selah

⁵I laid me down and slept;

I awaked; for Jehovah sustaineth me.

⁶I will not be afraid of ten thousands of the people

That have set themselves against me round about.

⁷Arise, O Jehovah; save me, O my God:

For thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone;

Thou hast broken the teeth of the wicked.

⁸Salvation belongeth unto Jehovah:

Thy blessing be upon thy people.

Selah

Psalms 4

¹Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness;

Thou hast set me at large [when I was] in distress:

Have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.

²O ye sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into

dishonor?

[How long] will ye love vanity, and seek after falsehood?

Selah

³But know that Jehovah hath set apart for himself him that

is godly:

Jehovah will hear when I call unto him.

⁴Stand in awe, and sin not:

Commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still.

Selah

⁵Offer the sacrifices of righteousness,

And put your trust in Jehovah.

⁶Many there are that say, Who will show us [any] good?

Jehovah, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.

⁷Thou hast put gladness in my heart,

More than [they have] when their grain and their new wine are

increased.

⁸In peace will I both lay me down and sleep;

For thou, Jehovah, alone makest me dwell in safety.

Psalms 5

¹Give ear to my words, O Jehovah,

Consider my meditation.

²Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God;

For unto thee do I pray.

³O Jehovah, in the morning shalt thou hear my voice;

In the morning will I order [my prayer] unto thee, and will keep

watch.

⁴For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness:

Evil shall not sojourn with thee.

⁵The arrogant shall not stand in thy sight:

Thou hatest all workers of iniquity.

⁶Thou wilt destroy them that speak lies:

Jehovah abhorreth the blood-thirsty and deceitful man.

⁷But as for me, in the abundance of thy lovingkindness will

I come into thy house:

In thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.

⁸Lead me, O Jehovah, in thy righteousness because of mine

enemies;

Make thy way straight before my face.

⁹For there is no faithfulness in their mouth;

Their inward part is very wickedness;

Their throat is an open sepulchre;

They flatter with their tongue.

¹⁰Hold them guilty, O God;

Let them fall by their own counsels;

Thrust them out in the multitude of their transgressions;

For they have rebelled against thee.

¹¹But let all those that take refuge in thee rejoice,

Let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them:

Let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.

¹²For thou wilt bless the righteous;

O Jehovah, thou wilt compass him with favor as with a shield.
