Come, ye children! hearken unto me, The reverence of Yahweh, will I teach you.

The eyes of Yahweh, are towards the righteous, And, his ears, towards their cry for help:

the face of Yahweh, is against such as do wickedness, To cut off, from the earth, their memory.

They made outcry, and Yahweh heard, And, out of all their straits, hath he rescued them.

Near is Yahweh, to the broken in heart, And, the crushed in spirit, will he save.

Many are the misfortunes of the righteous, But, out of them all, doth Yahweh rescue him.

Yahweh ransometh the soul of his servants, And none shall be held guilty, who seek refuge in him.

Contend, O Yahweh, with them who contend with me, Make war upon them who make war upon me.

Let them be as chaff before the wind, with, the messenger of Yahweh, pressing them on:

Let their way become dark and slippery, with, the messenger of Yahweh, pursuing them.

But, my soul, shall exult in Yahweh, - shall be glad in his salvation.

All my bones, shall say - O Yahweh, who is like unto thee? Rescuing the oppressed from one stronger than he, Yea the oppressed and the needy, from their spoiler.

Thou hast seen, O Yahweh, do not keep silence! O My Lord! be not far from me:

Vindicate me according to thy righteousness, O Yahweh, my God! And let them not rejoice over me:

Let them shout in triumph and rejoice, who are desiring my justification; And let them say continually, Yahweh be magnified, Who hath taken pleasure in the prosperity of his servant.

O Yahweh! in the heavens, is thy lovingkindness, Thy faithfulness, as far as the fleecy clouds:

Thy righteousness, is like mighty mountains, and, thy just decrees, are a great resounding deep, - Man and beast, thou savest, O Yahweh!

Trust in Yahweh, and do good, Dwell in the land, and feed on fidelity;

Yea, rest thy delight on Yahweh, that he may give thee the requests of thy heart.

Roll on Yahweh thy way, Trust also in him, and, he, will effectually work:
