God

to grant him relief from days of trouble, until a pit is dug for the wicked.

For the LORD will not forsake His people; He will never abandon His heritage.

Unless the LORD had been my helper, I would soon have dwelt in the abode of silence.

If I say, “My foot is slipping,” Your loving devotion, O LORD, supports me.

When anxiety overwhelms me, Your consolation delights my soul.

Can a corrupt throne be Your ally— one devising mischief by decree?

But the LORD has been my stronghold, and my God is my rock of refuge.

He will bring upon them their own iniquity and destroy them for their wickedness. The LORD our God will destroy them.

Come, let us sing for joy to the LORD; let us shout to the Rock of our salvation!

Let us enter His presence with thanksgiving; let us make a joyful noise to Him in song.

For the LORD is a great God, a great King above all gods.

In His hand are the depths of the earth, and the mountain peaks belong to Him.

The sea is His, for He made it, and His hands formed the dry land.

O come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the LORD our Maker.

For He is our God, and we are the people of His pasture, the sheep under His care. Today, if you hear His voice,

where your fathers tested and tried Me, though they had seen My work.

For forty years I was angry with that generation, and I said, “They are a people whose hearts go astray, and they have not known My ways.”

So I swore on oath in My anger, “They shall never enter My rest.”

Sing to the LORD a new song; sing to the LORD, all the earth.

Sing to the LORD, bless His name; proclaim His salvation day after day.

Declare His glory among the nations, His wonderful deeds among all peoples.

For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; He is to be feared above all gods.

For all the gods of the nations are idols, but it is the LORD who made the heavens.

Splendor and majesty are before Him; strength and beauty fill His sanctuary.

Ascribe to the LORD, O families of the nations, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.
