Look, you desire integrity in the inner man; you want me to possess wisdom.

During the evening, morning, and noontime I will lament and moan, and he will hear me.

He attacks his friends; he breaks his solemn promises to them.

Throw your burden upon the Lord, and he will sustain you. He will never allow the godly to be upended.

I will give you thanks before the nations, O Master! I will sing praises to you before foreigners!

The wicked turn aside from birth; liars go astray as soon as they are born.

May he reign forever before God! Decree that your loyal love and faithfulness should protect him.

You crown the year with your good blessings, and you leave abundance in your wake.

He rules by his power forever; he watches the nations. Stubborn rebels should not exalt themselves. (Selah)

I will enter your temple with burnt sacrifices; I will fulfill the vows I made to you,

I sink into the deep mire where there is no solid ground; I am in deep water, and the current overpowers me.

Don’t let the current overpower me! Don’t let the deep swallow me up! Don’t let the pit devour me!

O God, you have taught me since I was young, and I am still declaring your amazing deeds.

His glorious name deserves praise forevermore! May his majestic splendor fill the whole earth! We agree! We agree!

They are like a dream after one wakes up. O Lord, when you awake you will despise them.

Rise up, O God! Defend your honor! Remember how fools insult you all day long!

Has God forgotten to be merciful? Has his anger stifled his compassion?”

You are the God who does amazing things; you have revealed your strength among the nations.

The clouds poured down rain; the skies thundered. Yes, your arrows flashed about.

When he struck them down, they sought his favor; they turned back and longed for God.
