1: To the Chief Musician,H5329 of David.H1732 A PsalmH4210 patientlyH6960 I waited forH6960 Yahweh-H3068 and He inclinedH5186 to meH0413 and heardH8085 my cry.H7775

2: And He brought me upH5927 out of a pit,H0953 horribleH7588 Out of clay,H2916 the miryH3121 and setH6965 uponH5921 a rock,H5553 my feetH7272 [And] establishedH3559 my steps.H0838

3: And He has putH5414 in my mouth,H6310 a songH7892 newH2319 PraiseH8416 to our God-H0430 will see [it]H7200 ManyH7227 and fear,H3372 and will trustH0982 in Yahweh.H3068

4: Blessed [is]H0835 that manH1397 whoH0834 makesH7760 YahwehH3068 his trust,H4009 and notH3808 does respectH6437 untoH0413 the proud,H7295 nor such as turn asideH7750 to lies.H3577

5: Many [are],H7227 which have done,H6213 YouH0859 YahwehH3068 my God,H0430 Your wonderful worksH6381 and Your thoughtsH4284 toward usH0413 [Can] notH0369 be recounted in orderH6186 to You-H0413 [If] I would declareH5046 and speak [of them]H1696 they are moreH6105 than can be numbered.H5608

6: SacrificeH2077 and offeringH4503 notH3808 You did desire-H2654 My earsH0241 You have opened-H3738 Burnt offeringH5930 and sin offeringH2401 notH3808 You did require.H7592

7: ThenH0227 I saidH0559 behold,H2009 I come-H0935 in the scrollH4039 of the bookH5612 [it is] writtenH3789 of me.H5921

8: To doH6213 Your will,H7522 my God-H0430 I delightH2654 and Your law [is]H8451 withinH8432 my heart.H4578

9: I have proclaimed the good newsH1319 of righteousnessH6664 in the assembly-H6951 greatH7227 indeed,H2009 my lips,H8193 notH3808 I do restrainH3607 Yahweh,H3068 YouH0859 know.H3045

10: Your righteousnessH6666 notH3808 I have hiddenH3680 withinH8432 my heart-H3820 Your faithfulnessH0530 and Your salvation-H8668 I have declaredH0559 notH3808 I have concealedH3582 Your lovingkindnessH2617 and Your truthH0571 from the assemblyH6951 great.H7227

11: YouH0859 Yahweh,H3068 notH3808 do withholdH3607 Your tender merciesH7356 from meH4480 Your lovingkindnessH2617 and Your truthH0571 continuallyH8548 let preserve me.H5341

12: ForH3588 have surroundedH0661 me-H5921 evilsH7451 innumerableH5704 elseH0369 innumerableH4557 have overtaken meH5381 My iniquitiesH5771 so that notH3808 I am ableH3201 to look up-H7200 they are moreH6105 than the hairsH8185 of my head,H7218 therefore my heartH3820 fails me.H5800

13: Be pleased,H7521 Yahweh,H3068 to deliver meH5337 Yahweh,H3068 to help meH5833 make haste.H2363

14: Let them be ashamedH0954 and brought to confusionH2659 mutualH3162 who seekH1245 my lifeH5315 to destroyH5595 let them be drivenH5472 backwardH0268 and brought to dishonorH3637 who wishH2655 me evil.H7451

15: Let them be confoundedH8074 uponH5921 becauseH6118 of their shameH1322 who sayH0559 Aha,H1889 aha.H1889

16: RejoiceH7797 and be gladH8055 allH3605 let those who seek YouH1245 let sayH0559 continually,H8548 be magnified.H1431 YahwehH3068 such as loveH0157 Your salvation.H8668

17: But I [am]H0589 poorH6041 and needy-H0034 YahwehH0136 [Yet] thinksH2803 my helpH5833 and my deliverer-H6403 You [are]H0859 my God.H0430 NotH0408 do delay,H0309
