You prepare a feast before me in plain sight of my enemies. You refresh my head with oil; my cup is completely full.

All your garments are perfumed with myrrh, aloes, and cassia. From the luxurious palaces comes the music of stringed instruments that makes you happy.

For this reason we do not fear when the earth shakes, and the mountains tumble into the depths of the sea,

The godly will rejoice when they see vengeance carried out; they will bathe their feet in the blood of the wicked.

How long will you threaten a man? All of you are murderers, as dangerous as a leaning wall or an unstable fence.

For the music director; to be accompanied by stringed instruments; a psalm of Asaph, a song. God has revealed himself in Judah; in Israel his reputation is great.

For you, O Lord, have made me happy by your work. I will sing for joy because of what you have done.

The Lord God of Israel deserves praise, in the future and forevermore. Let all the people say, “We agree! Praise the Lord!”

The Lord makes this promise on oath and will not revoke it: “You are an eternal priest after the pattern of Melchizedek.”

Not to us, O Lord, not to us! But to your name bring honor, for the sake of your loyal love and faithfulness.

שׂ/שׁ (Sin/Shin) Rulers pursue me for no reason, yet I am more afraid of disobeying your instructions.

I cry out to you, O Lord; I say, “You are my shelter, my security in the land of the living.”

Let them praise the name of the Lord, for his name alone is exalted; his majesty extends over the earth and sky.

But the one who listens to me will live in security, and will be at ease from the dread of harm.

It is better for a person to meet a mother bear being robbed of her cubs, than to encounter a fool in his folly.

The name of the Lord is like a strong tower; the righteous person runs to it and is set safely on high.

There is desirable treasure and olive oil in the dwelling of the wise, but a foolish person devours all he has.

Don’t set foot too frequently in your neighbor’s house, lest he become weary of you and hate you.

It is better to live on a corner of the housetop than in a house in company with a quarrelsome wife.

The Beloved to the Maidens: I admonish you, O maidens of Jerusalem: “Do not arouse or awaken love until it pleases!”
