Yours, Yahweh, is the greatness, the power, the glory, the victory, and the majesty! For all that is in the heavens and in the earth is yours. Yours is the kingdom, Yahweh, and you are exalted as head above all.

Save your people, and bless your inheritance. Be their shepherd also, and bear them up forever.

The righteous cry, and Yahweh hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles.

I cry with my voice to Yahweh. With my voice, I ask Yahweh for mercy.

May the high praises of God be in their mouths, and a two-edged sword in their hand,

Sing to Yahweh! Praise Yahweh, for he has delivered the soul of the needy from the hand of evildoers.

Yahweh, you have heard the desire of the humble. You will prepare their heart. You will cause your ear to hear,

For you will save the afflicted people, but the arrogant eyes you will bring down.

I speak in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh, for as you presented your members as servants to uncleanness and to wickedness upon wickedness, even so now present your members as servants to righteousness for sanctification.

Through him, then, let’s offer up a sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of lips which proclaim allegiance to his name.
