PSALMS
- When I lift up my hands toward Thy holy Sanctuary.
- 3Draw me not away with the wicked,
- And with the workers of iniquity;
- Who speak peace with their neighbours,
- But evil is in their hearts.
- 4Give them according to their deeds, and according to the evil of their endeavours;
- Give them after the work of their hands;
- Render to them their desert.
- 5Because they give no heed to the works of the Lord,
- Nor to the operation of His hands;
- He will break them down and not build them up.
- 6Blessed be the Lord,
- Because He hath heard the voice of my supplications.
- 7The Lord is my strength and my shield,
- In Him hath my heart trusted, And I am helped;
- Therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth,
- And with my song will I praise Him.
- 8The Lord is a strength unto them;
- And He is a stronghold of salvation to His anointed.
- 9Save Thy people, and bless Thine inheritance;
- And tend them, and carry them for ever.
29 A Psalm of David.
- Ascribe unto the Lord, O ye sons of might,
- Ascribe unto the Lord glory and strength.
- 2Ascribe unto the Lord the glory due unto His name;
- Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.
- 3The voice of the Lord is upon the waters;
- The God of glory thundereth,
- Even the Lord upon many waters.
- 4The voice of the Lord is powerful;
- The voice of the Lord is full of majesty.
- 5The voice of the Lord breaketh the cedars;
- Yea, the Lord breaketh in pieces the cedars of Lebanon.
- 6He maketh them also to skip like a calf;
- Lebanon and Sirion like a young wild-ox.
- 7The voice of the Lord heweth out flames of fire.
- 8The voice of the Lord shaketh the wilderness;
- The Lord shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.
- 9The voice of the Lord maketh the hinds to calve,
- And strippeth the forests bare;
- And in His temple all say: 'Glory.'
- 10The Lord sat enthroned at the flood;
- Yea, the Lord sitteth as King for ever.
- 11The Lord will give strength unto His people;
- The Lord will bless his people with peace.
30 A Psalm; a Song at the Dedication of the House; of David.
- 2I will extol thee, O Lord, for Thou hast raised me up,
- And hast not suffered mine enemies to rejoice over me.
