In the Lord put I my trust: how say ye to my soul, as a bird to your mountains, swiftly flee; and escape the secret snare that is laid for thy destruction?
Lo, the ungodly bend their bow, they fix their arrow upon the bowstring, that they may privily shoot at them which are true of heart.
When the foundations are destroyed, what will remain for the righteous man to do?
The Lord Jehovah is in his holy temple, in Heaven hath Jehovah fix’d his holy seat.
His eyes consider the poor and his eyelids try the children of men.
He alloweth the righteous, he exploreth the wicked; but the ungodly he hateth, and him that loveth mischief his soul abhoreth.
On the ungodly he raineth snares, on him that delighteth in wickedness he raineth snares.
And this shall be the portion of their cup: fire and brimstone, hot burning coals, storm and tempest; this shall be the portion of their cup.
Jehovah is righteous; and he will be the protector of the innocent, for he delighteth in just and upright actions.

Blessed is he whose wickedness is forgiven and whose transgressions are covered.
Blessed is the man to whom the Lord imputeth no sin and in whose spirit there is no guile.
For when I kept silence, my bones consumed away through my daily complaining.
For day and night thy hand is heavy upon me and my moisture is like the drought in summer.
I acknowledge my sin unto thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid.
I said, I will confess my sins unto the Lord Jehovah: and thou, O Lord, didst pardon mine iniquity, thou forgavest my sin and wickedness.
For this shall ev’ry one that is godly pray unto thee in a time when thou mayest be found.
But in the floods of great waters they shall not come nigh him.
Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble and adversity, thou shalt encompass me about with song of deliverance.
I will inform thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: and I will guide thee with mine eye.
Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle lest they come near unto thee.
Many sorrows remain for the ungodly.
But whoso puteth his trust in the Lord Jehovah, blessings of mercy shall him encompass him on ev’ry side.
Be glad in the Lord, and rejoice, O ye righteous: and be merry and joyful, ye that are true of heart.

God is our refuge and our strength, a very present help in trouble.
Therefore though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea, we will not be afraid.
Though the sea lift up its waves and though the mountains are shaken by the tempest of the same.
There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy pavillion of the tabernacle, the dwelling of the Highest.
God is in the midst of her; therefore she shall not be removed: God shall help her, and that right early.
The heathen raged furiously together and the kingdoms were moved: but God hath showed his voice and the earth shall be melted.
The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge.
O come hither and behold the works of the Lord, what destruction he has brought upon the earth.
He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the arrows of the bow, the shield, the sword and the battle, he burns the chariots in the fire.
Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, and I will be exalted throughout the earth.
The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge forever.

The Lord Jehovah, ev’n the most mighty God hath spoken, and called all the world from the rising of the sun to the going down thereof.
Out of Zion hath God hath appeared in perfect beauty.
Our God shall come and shall not keep silence: a fire shall go before him and shall devour his foes on ev’ry side.
A mighty tempest shall rage around him.
He shall call the heav’n from above, and to the earth, that he may judge his people.
Come, gather together my saints together unto me: those that have made a covenant with me with sacrifice.
The heavens shall declare his righteousness: for God is judge himself.
Thus said the Lord: Hear, O my people, and I will speak; I myself will testify against thee, O Israel, for I am thy God.
I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices or thy burnt off’rings, because they were not alway before me.
I will take no bullock out of thine house, nor the goats out of thy folds.
For all the beasts of the field are mine, and so are all the cattle upon a thousand hills.
I know all the fowls of the mountains, and the wild beasts of the forest are in my sight.
If I be hungry, I will not tell thee, for the world is mine, and all that is therein.
Thinkest thou that I will eat the flesh of bulls, and drink the blood of goats?
Offer praise and thanks unto Jehovah, pay thy vows unto the most High.
And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, thou shalt glorify me.
But to the wicked this saith the Lord: What hast thou to do to declare my statutes, or to take my cov’nant in thy mouth?
Whereas thou hatest to be reformed and casteth my words behind thee.
When thou sawest a thief and thou consentedst with him, and thou hast been partaker with adulterers.
Thou lettest thy mouth to evil, and with thy tongue thou hast set forth deceit.
Thou art continually speaking against thy brother, thou hast slander’d thine own mother’s son.
These things thou hast done, and I kept silence; thou thoughtest wickedly that I am even such a one as thyself: but I will reprove thee, and set before thine eyes the things thou hast done.
O consider this, ye that forget the Lord God, lest I pluck you you away and none can help you.
Whoso offereth me thanks and the sacrifice of praise he glorifieth me: and to the juts and upright in his way I will shew the salvation of God.

In omnem terram exivit sonus eorum;
et in fines orbis terrae verba eorum.
