A king is not saved by the size of his army, a strong man not delivered by his great strength.

But Adonai 's eyes watch over those who fear him, over those who wait for his grace

For in him our hearts rejoice, because we trust in his holy name.

I will bless Adonai at all times; his praise will always be in my mouth.

Proclaim with me the greatness of Adonai ; let us exalt his name together.

This poor man cried; Adonai heard and saved him from all his troubles.

Fear Adonai , you holy ones of his, for those who fear him lack nothing.

The eyes of Adonai watch over the righteous, and his ears are open to their cry.

He protects all his bones; not one of them gets broken.

Evil will kill the wicked, and those who hate the righteous will be condemned. But Adonai redeems his servants; no one who takes refuge in him will be condemned.

Then I will be joyful in Adonai , I will rejoice in his salvation.

But may those who delight in my righteousness shout for joy and be glad! Let them say always, "How great is Adonai , who delights in the peace of his servant!"

Crime speaks to the wicked. I perceive this in my heart; before his eyes there is no fear of God.

For, the way he sees it, crime makes his life easy — that is, until his wrongs are discovered; then, he is hated.

His words are wrong and deceitful; he has stopped being wise and doing good.

He devises trouble as he lies in bed; so set is he on his own bad way that he doesn't hate evil.

Soon the wicked will be no more; you will look for his place, and he won't be there.

The wicked plots against the righteous and grinds his teeth at him;

but Adonai laughs at the wicked, knowing his day will come.

Adonai directs a person's steps, and he delights in his way.
