2:9 You will break them with an iron scepter;
you will smash them like a potter’s jar!’”
3:3 But you, Lord, are a shield that protects me;
you are my glory and the one who restores me.
9:2 I will be happy and rejoice in you!
I will sing praises to you, O sovereign One!
9:10 Your loyal followers trust in you,
for you, Lord, do not abandon those who seek your help.
10:1 Why, Lord, do you stand far off?
Why do you pay no attention during times of trouble?
16:10 You will not abandon me to Sheol;
you will not allow your faithful follower to see the Pit.
17:6 I call to you for you will answer me, O God.
Listen to me!
Hear what I say!
17:7 Accomplish awesome, faithful deeds,
you who powerfully deliver those who look to you for protection from their enemies.
18:25 You prove to be loyal to one who is faithful;
you prove to be trustworthy to one who is innocent.
18:49 So I will give you thanks before the nations, O Lord!
I will sing praises to you!
21:4 He asked you to sustain his life,
and you have granted him long life and an enduring dynasty.
21:6 For you grant him lasting blessings;
you give him great joy by allowing him into your presence.
21:9 You burn them up like a fiery furnace when you appear;
the Lord angrily devours them;
the fire consumes them.
22:5 To you they cried out, and they were saved;
in you they trusted and they were not disappointed.
22:19 But you, O Lord, do not remain far away!
You are my source of strength! Hurry and help me!
30:3 O Lord, you pulled me up from Sheol;
you rescued me from among those descending into the grave.
30:7 O Lord, in your good favor you made me secure.
Then you rejected me and I was terrified.
31:4 You will free me from the net they hid for me,
for you are my place of refuge.
32:4 For day and night you tormented me;
you tried to destroy me in the intense heat of summer. (Selah)
32:11 Rejoice in the Lord and be happy, you who are godly!
Shout for joy, all you who are morally upright!
35:18 Then I will give you thanks in the great assembly;
I will praise you before a large crowd of people!
41:12 As for me, you uphold me because of my integrity;
you allow me permanent access to your presence.
49:18 He pronounces this blessing on himself while he is alive:
“May men praise you, for you have done well!”
50:8 I am not condemning you because of your sacrifices,
or because of your burnt sacrifices that you continually offer me.
51:16 Certainly you do not want a sacrifice, or else I would offer it;
you do not desire a burnt sacrifice.
57:9 I will give you thanks before the nations, O Master!
I will sing praises to you before foreigners!
60:2 You made the earth quake; you split it open.
Repair its breaches, for it is ready to fall.
60:10 Have you not rejected us, O God?
O God, you do not go into battle with our armies.
61:5 For you, O God, hear my vows;
you grant me the reward that belongs to your loyal followers.
66:4 All the earth worships you
and sings praises to you!
They sing praises to your name!” (Selah)
67:2 Then those living on earth will know what you are like;
all nations will know how you deliver your people.
68:9 O God, you cause abundant showers to fall on your chosen people.
When they are tired, you sustain them,
68:28 God has decreed that you will be powerful.
O God, you who have acted on our behalf, demonstrate your power,
69:26 For they harass the one whom you discipline;
they spread the news about the suffering of those whom you punish.
71:5 For you give me confidence, O Lord;
O Lord, I have trusted in you since I was young.
71:23 My lips will shout for joy! Yes, I will sing your praises!
I will praise you when you rescue me!
73:20 They are like a dream after one wakes up.
O Lord, when you awake you will despise them.
73:24 You guide me by your wise advice,
and then you will lead me to a position of honor.
74:13 You destroyed the sea by your strength;
you shattered the heads of the sea monster in the water.
74:14 You crushed the heads of Leviathan;
you fed him to the people who live along the coast.
74:17 You set up all the boundaries of the earth;
you created the cycle of summer and winter.
76:10 Certainly your angry judgment upon men will bring you praise;
you reveal your anger in full measure.
80:4 O Lord God, invincible warrior!
How long will you remain angry at your people while they pray to you?
81:8 I said, ‘Listen, my people!
I will warn you!
O Israel, if only you would obey me!
83:9 Do to them as you did to Midian –
as you did to Sisera and Jabin at the Kishon River!
86:5 Certainly O Lord, you are kind and forgiving,
and show great faithfulness to all who cry out to you.
86:9 All the nations, whom you created,
will come and worship you, O Lord.
They will honor your name.
86:15 But you, O Lord, are a compassionate and merciful God.
You are patient and demonstrate great loyal love and faithfulness.
88:10 Do you accomplish amazing things for the dead?
Do the departed spirits rise up and give you thanks? (Selah)
88:13 As for me, I cry out to you, O Lord;
in the morning my prayer confronts you.
89:11 The heavens belong to you, as does the earth.
You made the world and all it contains.
90:2 Even before the mountains came into existence,
or you brought the world into being,
you were the eternal God.
91:7 Though a thousand may fall beside you,
and a multitude on your right side,
it will not reach you.
91:8 Certainly you will see it with your very own eyes –
you will see the wicked paid back.
91:12 They will lift you up in their hands,
so you will not slip and fall on a stone.
91:13 You will subdue a lion and a snake;
you will trample underfoot a young lion and a serpent.
94:12 How blessed is the one whom you instruct, O Lord,
the one whom you teach from your law,
97:9 For you, O Lord, are the sovereign king over the whole earth;
you are elevated high above all gods.
103:20 Praise the Lord, you angels of his,
you powerful warriors who carry out his decrees
and obey his orders!
103:21 Praise the Lord, all you warriors of his,
you servants of his who carry out his desires!
104:1 Praise the Lord, O my soul!
O Lord my God, you are magnificent.
You are robed in splendor and majesty.
104:28 You give food to them and they receive it;
you open your hand and they are filled with food.
104:30 When you send your life-giving breath, they are created,
and you replenish the surface of the ground.
106:4 Remember me, O Lord, when you show favor to your people!
Pay attention to me, when you deliver,
108:3 I will give you thanks before the nations, O Lord!
I will sing praises to you before foreigners!
108:11 Have you not rejected us, O God?
O God, you do not go into battle with our armies.
128:5 May the Lord bless you from Zion,
that you might see Jerusalem prosper
all the days of your life,
130:3 If you, O Lord, were to keep track of sins,
O Lord, who could stand before you?
138:4 Let all the kings of the earth give thanks to you, O Lord,
when they hear the words you speak.
139:2 You know when I sit down and when I get up;
even from far away you understand my motives.
139:13 Certainly you made my mind and heart;
you wove me together in my mother’s womb.
141:8 Surely I am looking to you, O sovereign Lord.
In you I take shelter.
Do not expose me to danger!
143:6 I spread my hands out to you in prayer;
my soul thirsts for you in a parched land.
