Psalms 81

1Sing aloud unto God our strength:
Make a joyful noise unto the God of Jacob.

2Raise a song, and bring hither the timbrel,
The pleasant harp with the psaltery.

3Blow the trumpet at the new moon,
At the full moon, on our feast-day.

4For it is a statute for Israel,
An ordinance of the God of Jacob.

5He appointed it in Joseph for a testimony,
When he went out over the land of Egypt,
[Where] I heard a language that I knew not.

6I removed his shoulder from the burden:
His hands were freed from the basket.

7Thou calledst in trouble, and I delivered thee;
I answered thee in the secret place of thunder;
I proved thee at the waters of Meribah.

Selah

8Hear, O my people, and I will testify unto thee:
O Israel, if thou wouldest hearken unto me!

9There shall no strange god be in thee;
Neither shalt thou worship any foreign god.

10I am Jehovah thy God,
Who brought thee up out of the land of Egypt:
Open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.

11But my people hearkened not to my voice;
And Israel would none of me.

12So I let them go after the stubbornness of their heart,
That they might walk in their own counsels.

13Oh that my people would hearken unto me,
That Israel would walk in my ways!

14I would soon subdue their enemies,
And turn my hand against their adversaries.

15The haters of Jehovah should submit themselves unto him:
But their time should endure for ever.

16He would feed them also with the finest of the wheat;
And with honey out of the rock would I satisfy thee.

Psalms 82

1God standeth in the congregation of God;
He judgeth among the gods.

2How long will ye judge unjustly,
And respect the persons of the wicked?

Selah

3Judge the poor and fatherless:
Do justice to the afflicted and destitute.

4Rescue the poor and needy:
Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.

5They know not, neither do they understand;
They walk to and fro in darkness:
All the foundations of the earth are shaken.

6I said, Ye are gods,
And all of you sons of the Most High.

7Nevertheless ye shall die like men,
And fall like one of the princes.

8Arise, O God, judge the earth;
For thou shalt inherit all the nations.

Psalms 83

1O God, keep not thou silence:
Hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.

2For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult;
And they that hate thee have lifted up the head.

3Thy take crafty counsel against thy people,
And consult together against thy hidden ones.

4They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being
a nation;
That the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.

5For they have consulted together with one consent;
Against thee do they make a covenant:

6The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites;
Moab, and the Hagarenes;

7Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek;
Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre:

8Assyria also is joined with them;
They have helped the children of Lot.

Selah

9Do thou unto them as unto Midian,
As to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the river Kishon;

10Who perished at Endor,
Who became as dung for the earth.

11Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb;
Yea, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna;

12Who said, Let us take to ourselves in possession
The habitations of God.

13O my God, make them like the whirling dust;
As stubble before the wind.

14As the fire that burneth the forest,
And as the flame that setteth the mountains on fire,

15So pursue them with thy tempest,
And terrify them with thy storm.

16Fill their faces with confusion,
That they may seek thy name, O Jehovah.

17Let them be put to shame and dismayed for ever;
Yea, let them be confounded and perish;

18That they may know that thou alone, whose name is
Jehovah,
Art the Most High over all the earth.

Psalms 84

1How amiable are thy tabernacles,
O Jehovah of hosts!

2My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of
Jehovah;
My heart and my flesh cry out unto the living God.

3Yea, the sparrow hath found her a house,
And the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young,
Even thine altars, O Jehovah of hosts,
My King, and my God.

4Blessed are they that dwell in thy house:
They will be still praising thee.

Selah

5Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee;
In whose heart are the highways [to Zion].

6Passing through the valley of Weeping they make it a
place of springs;
Yea, the early rain covereth it with blessings.

7They go from strength to strength;
Every one of them appeareth before God in Zion.

8O Jehovah God of hosts, hear my prayer;
Give ear, O God of Jacob.

Selah

9Behold, O God our shield,
And look upon the face of thine anointed.

10For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand.
I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God,
Than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.

11For Jehovah God is a sun and a shield:
Jehovah will give grace and glory;
No good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.

12O Jehovah of hosts,
Blessed is the man that trusteth in thee.

Psalms 85

1Jehovah, thou hast been favorable unto thy land;
Thou hast brought back the captivity of Jacob.

2Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people;
Thou hast covered all their sin.

Selah

3Thou hast taken away all thy wrath;
Thou hast turned [thyself] from the fierceness of thine anger.

4Turn us, O God of our salvation,
And cause thine indignation toward us to cease.

5Wilt thou be angry with us for ever?
Wilt thou draw out thine anger to all generations?

6Wilt thou not quicken us again,
That thy people may rejoice in thee?

7Show us thy lovingkindness, O Jehovah,
And grant us thy salvation.

8I will hear what God Jehovah will speak;
For he will speak peace unto his people, and to his saints:
But let them not turn again to folly.

9Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him,
That glory may dwell in our land.

10Mercy and truth are met together;
Righteousness and peace have kissed each other.

11Truth springeth out of the earth;
And righteousness hath looked down from heaven.

12Yea, Jehovah will give that which is good;
And our land shall yield its increase.

13Righteousness shall go before him,
And shall make his footsteps a way [to walk in].
