Then they will not be like their ancestors, who were a stubborn and rebellious generation, a generation that was not committed and faithful to God.

Rise up, Lord! Deliver me, my God! Yes, you will strike all my enemies on the jaw; you will break the teeth of the wicked.

May the evil deeds of the wicked come to an end! But make the innocent secure, O righteous God, you who examine inner thoughts and motives!

For the music director; by David. Fools say to themselves, “There is no God.” They sin and commit evil deeds; none of them does what is right.

The Lord looks down from heaven at the human race, to see if there is anyone who is wise and seeks God.

For the music director; a psalm of David. May the Lord answer you when you are in trouble; may the God of Jacob make you secure!

Then we will shout for joy over your victory; we will rejoice in the name of our God! May the Lord grant all your requests!

Guide me into your truth and teach me. For you are the God who delivers me; on you I rely all day long.

So now my heart will sing to you and not be silent; O Lord my God, I will always give thanks to you.

I am oppressed and needy! May the Lord pay attention to me! You are my helper and my deliverer! O my God, do not delay!

By day the Lord decrees his loyal love, and by night he gives me a song, a prayer to the living God.

For you are the God who shelters me. Why do you reject me? Why must I walk around mourning because my enemies oppress me?

For the music director; by the Korahites; according to the alamoth style; a song. God is our strong refuge; he is truly our helper in times of trouble.

A song, a psalm by the Korahites. The Lord is great and certainly worthy of praise in the city of our God, his holy hill.

“Look, here is the man who would not make God his protector! He trusted in his great wealth and was confident about his plans to destroy others.”

I wish the deliverance of Israel would come from Zion! When God restores the well-being of his people, may Jacob rejoice, may Israel be happy!

when you deliver my life from death. You keep my feet from stumbling, so that I might serve God as I enjoy life.

May he send help from heaven and deliver me from my enemies who hurl insults! (Selah) May God send his loyal love and faithfulness!

As smoke is driven away by the wind, so you drive them away. As wax melts before fire, so the wicked are destroyed before God.

Sing to God! Sing praises to his name! Exalt the one who rides on the clouds! For the Lord is his name! Rejoice before him!
