You are holy; you sit as king receiving the praises of Israel.

For you hate instruction and reject my words.

But it is you, a man like me, my close friend in whom I confided.

Many are appalled when they see me, but you are my secure shelter.

But you, O Lord, reign forever!

But you remain; your years do not come to an end.

But you, Lord, are a shield that protects me; you are my glory and the one who restores me.

But you, O Lord, do not remain far away! You are my source of strength! Hurry and help me!

As for you, O Lord, have mercy on me and raise me up, so I can pay them back!”

But you, O Lord, laugh in disgust at them; you taunt all the nations.

But you have spurned and rejected him; you are angry with your chosen king.

But you, O Lord, rule forever, and your reputation endures.

They curse, but you will bless. When they attack, they will be humiliated, but your servant will rejoice.

I am absolutely terrified, and you, Lord – how long will this continue?

But you, O Lord, are a compassionate and merciful God. You are patient and demonstrate great loyal love and faithfulness.

They will perish, but you will endure. They will wear out like a garment; like clothes you will remove them and they will disappear.

O sovereign Lord, intervene on my behalf for the sake of your reputation! Because your loyal love is good, deliver me!

Everything looks to you in anticipation, and you provide them with food on a regular basis.

Then I confessed my sin; I no longer covered up my wrongdoing. I said, “I will confess my rebellious acts to the Lord.” And then you forgave my sins. (Selah)

But you, O God, will bring them down to the deep Pit. Violent and deceitful people will not live even half a normal lifespan. But as for me, I trust in you.
