I rashly declared, “All men are liars.”

How can I repay the Lord for all his acts of kindness to me?

With my lips I proclaim all the regulations you have revealed.

I rejoice in the lifestyle prescribed by your rules as if they were riches of all kinds.

All your commands are reliable. I am pursued without reason. Help me!

May all who hate Zion be humiliated and turned back!

All he has made will give thanks to the Lord. Your loyal followers will praise you.

Let everything that has breath praise the Lord! Praise the Lord!

You loyal followers of the Lord, praise him! All you descendants of Jacob, honor him! All you descendants of Israel, stand in awe of him!

Let all the people of the earth acknowledge the Lord and turn to him! Let all the nations worship you!

All of the thriving people of the earth will join the celebration and worship; all those who are descending into the grave will bow before him, including those who cannot preserve their lives.

Look, you make my days short-lived, and my life span is nothing from your perspective. Surely all people, even those who seem secure, are nothing but vapor.

You, O Lord God, the invincible warrior, the God of Israel, rouse yourself and punish all the nations! Have no mercy on any treacherous evildoers! (Selah)

you appoint them to rule over your creation; you have placed everything under their authority,

The wicked are turned back and sent to Sheol; this is the destiny of all the nations that ignore God,

As for God’s chosen people who are in the land, and the leading officials I admired so much –

May he take notice of your offerings; may he accept your burnt sacrifice! (Selah)

I can count all my bones; my enemies are gloating over me in triumph.

Certainly none who rely on you will be humiliated. Those who deal in treachery will be thwarted and humiliated.

The Lord always proves faithful and reliable to those who follow the demands of his covenant.
