¹ By David. Bless, O my soul, Jehovah, And all my inward parts -- His Holy Name.

² Thou hast said to Jehovah, `My Lord Thou `art';' My good `is' not for thine own sake;

¹¹ Serve ye Jehovah with fear, And rejoice with trembling.

² I rejoice and exult in Thee, I praise Thy Name, O Most High.

²⁴ God `is' a Spirit, and those worshipping Him, in spirit and truth it doth behove to worship.'

³⁶ because of Him, and through Him, and to Him `are' the all things; to Him `is' the glory -- to the ages. Amen.

¹ Give ye thanks to Jehovah -- call ye in His name, Make known among the peoples His acts.

⁴² and God did turn, and did give them up to do service to the host of the heaven, according as it hath been written in the scroll of the prophets: Slain beasts and sacrifices did ye offer to Me forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel?

⁴³ and ye took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan -- the figures that ye made to bow before them, and I will remove your dwelling beyond Babylon.

⁴⁴ `The tabernacle of the testimony was among our fathers in the wilderness, according as He did direct, who is speaking to Moses, to make it according to the figure that he had seen;

¹¹ for it hath been written, `I live! saith the Lord -- to Me bow shall every knee, and every tongue shall confess to God;'

¹¹ What! bowest thou thyself, O my soul? And what! art thou troubled within me? Wait for God, for still I confess Him, The salvation of my countenance, and my God!

¹⁹ speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord,

¹¹ To Thee, O Jehovah, `is' the greatness, and the might, and the beauty, and the victory, and the honour, because of all in the heavens and in the earth; to Thee, O Jehovah, `is' the kingdom, and he who is lifting up himself over all for head;

⁹ wherefore, also, God did highly exalt him, and gave to him a name that `is' above every name,

¹⁰ that in the name of Jesus every knee may bow -- of heavenlies, and earthlies, and what are under the earth --

¹¹ and every tongue may confess that Jesus Christ `is' Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

¹² So that, my beloved, as ye always obey, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, with fear and trembling your own salvation work out,

¹⁸ let no one beguile you of your prize, delighting in humble-mindedness and `in' worship of the messengers, intruding into the things he hath not seen, being vainly puffed up by the mind of his flesh,

¹⁹ and not holding the head, from which all the body -- through the joints and bands gathering supply, and being knit together -- may increase with the increase of God.

²⁰ If, then, ye did die with the Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances?

³⁸ and he said, `I believe, sir,' and bowed before him.

⁴ Sing ye to God -- praise His name, Raise up a highway for Him who is riding in deserts, In Jah `is' His name, and exult before Him.

⁵ Father of the fatherless, and judge of the widows, `Is' God in His holy habitation.

⁶ God -- causing the lonely to dwell at home, Bringing out bound ones into prosperity, Only -- the refractory have inhabited a dry place.

¹¹ And they respond in praising and in giving thanks to Jehovah, for good, for to the age His kindness `is' over Israel, and all the people have shouted -- a great shout -- in giving praise to Jehovah, because the house of Jehovah hath been founded.

³⁷ `Now, I, Nebuchadnezzar, am praising and exalting and honouring the King of the heavens, for all His works `are' truth, and His paths judgment, and those walking in pride He is able to humble.'

⁹ All nations that Thou hast made Come and bow themselves before Thee, O Lord, And give honour to Thy name.

¹⁰ For great `art' Thou, and doing wonders, Thou `art' God Thyself alone.

¹¹ Show me, O Jehovah, Thy way, I walk in Thy truth, My heart doth rejoice to fear Thy name.

¹ O Jehovah, my God `art' Thou, I exalt Thee, I confess Thy name, For Thou hast done a wonderful thing, Counsels of old, stedfastness, O stedfast One.

⁸ And Jesus answering him said, `Get thee behind me, Adversary, for it hath been written, Thou shalt bow before the Lord thy God, and Him only thou shalt serve.'

¹⁶ Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing each other, in psalms, and hymns, and spiritual songs, in grace singing in your hearts to the Lord;

¹² `And ye have called Me, and have gone, and have prayed unto Me, and I have hearkened unto you,

³⁴ Give thanks to Jehovah, for good, For to the age, `is' His kindness,

³⁵ And say, Save us, O God of our salvation, And gather us, and deliver us from the nations, To give thanks to Thy holy name, To triumph in Thy praise.

³⁶ Blessed `is' Jehovah, God of Israel, From the age and unto the age;' And all the people say, `Amen,' and have given praise to Jehovah.

³⁷ And he leaveth there before the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, for Asaph and for his brethren, to minister before the ark continually, according to the matter of a day in its day,

⁴ who may not fear Thee, O Lord, and glorify Thy name? because Thou alone `art' kind, because all the nations shall come and bow before Thee, because Thy righteous acts were manifested.'

³ that which we have seen and heard declare we to you, that ye also may have fellowship with us, and our fellowship `is' with the Father, and with His Son Jesus Christ;

¹⁷ Unto Him `with' my mouth I have called, And exaltation `is' under my tongue.

⁶ Come in, we bow ourselves, and we bend, We kneel before Jehovah our Maker.

¹⁷ Though the fig-tree doth not flourish, And there is no produce among vines, Failed hath the work of the olive, And fields have not yielded food, Cut off from the fold hath been the flock, And there is no herd in the stalls.

¹⁸ Yet I, in Jehovah I exult, I do joy in the God of my salvation.

¹⁹ Jehovah the Lord `is' my strength, And He doth make my feet like hinds, And on my high-places causeth me to tread. To the overseer with my stringed instruments!

¹¹ `Worthy art Thou, O Lord, to receive the glory, and the honour, and the power, because Thou -- Thou didst create the all things, and because of Thy will are they, and they were created.'

²³ but, there cometh an hour, and it now is, when the true worshippers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father also doth seek such to worship him;

²⁴ God `is' a Spirit, and those worshipping Him, in spirit and truth it doth behove to worship.'

²⁵ The woman saith to him, `I have known that Messiah doth come, who is called Christ, when that one may come, he will tell us all things;'

⁴ Enter ye His gates with thanksgiving, His courts with praise, Give ye thanks to Him, bless ye His Name.

¹ I call upon you, therefore, brethren, through the compassions of God, to present your bodies a sacrifice -- living, sanctified, acceptable to God -- your intelligent service;

²² Therefore Thou hast been great, Jehovah God, for there is none like Thee, and there is no God save Thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.

³ Because better `is' Thy kindness than life, My lips do praise Thee.

⁴ So I bless Thee in my life, in Thy name I lift up my hands.

⁵ As `with' milk and fatness is my soul satisfied, And `with' singing lips doth my mouth praise.

² Ascribe to Jehovah the honour of His name, Bow yourselves to Jehovah, In the beauty of holiness.

¹⁵ through him, then, we may offer up a sacrifice of praise always to God, that is, the fruit of lips, giving thanks to His name;

⁹ Sing ye to Him, sing psalms to Him, Meditate on all His wonders.

¹ To the Overseer. -- A Song, a Psalm. Shout ye to God, all the earth.

² Praise ye the honour of His name, Make ye honourable His praise.

³ Say to God, `How fearful `are' Thy works, By the abundance of Thy strength, Thine enemies feign obedience to Thee.

⁴ All the earth do bow to Thee, They sing praise to Thee, they praise Thy name.' Selah.

⁵ Come ye, and see the works of God, Fearful acts toward the sons of men.

¹ Praise ye Jah! Praise ye God in His holy place, Praise Him in the expanse of His strength.

² Praise Him in His mighty acts, Praise Him according to the abundance of His greatness.

³ Praise Him with blowing of trumpet, Praise Him with psaltery and harp.

⁴ Praise Him with timbrel and dance, Praise Him with stringed instruments and organ.

⁵ Praise Him with cymbals of sounding, Praise Him with cymbals of shouting.

⁶ All that doth breathe doth praise Jah! Praise ye Jah!

⁷ saying in a great voice, `Fear ye God, and give to Him glory, because come did the hour of His judgment, and bow ye before Him who did make the heaven, and the land, and sea, and fountains of waters.'

¹³ And the Lord saith: Because drawn near hath this people, with its mouth, And with its lips they have honoured Me, And its heart it hath put far off from Me, And their fear of Me is -- A precept of men is taught!

²⁰ And Job riseth, and rendeth his robe, and shaveth his head, and falleth to the earth, and doth obeisance,

²¹ and he saith, `Naked came I forth from the womb of my mother, and naked I turn back thither: Jehovah hath given and Jehovah hath taken: let the name of Jehovah be blessed.'

²² In all this Job hath not sinned, nor given folly to God.

⁶ I have spread forth my hands unto Thee, My soul `is' as a weary land for Thee. Selah.

¹⁰ Then saith Jesus to him, `Go -- Adversary, for it hath been written, The Lord thy God thou shalt bow to, and Him only thou shalt serve.'

²¹ Jesus saith to her, `Woman, believe me, that there doth come an hour, when neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, shall ye worship the Father;

²² ye worship what ye have not known; we worship what we have known, because the salvation is of the Jews;

²³ but, there cometh an hour, and it now is, when the true worshippers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father also doth seek such to worship him;

²⁴ God `is' a Spirit, and those worshipping Him, in spirit and truth it doth behove to worship.'

²⁸ wherefore, a kingdom that cannot be shaken receiving, may we have grace, through which we may serve God well-pleasingly, with reverence and religious fear;

²⁹ for also our God `is' a consuming fire.

⁸ Filled is my mouth `with' Thy praise, All the day `with' Thy beauty.

²⁵ And at midnight Paul and Silas praying, were singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were hearing them,

⁸ And I, John, am he who is seeing these things and hearing, and when I heard and beheld, I fell down to bow before the feet of the messenger who is shewing me these things;

⁹ and he saith to me, `See -- not; for fellow-servant of thee am I, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of those keeping the words of this scroll; before God bow.'

¹⁰ And he saith to me, `Thou mayest not seal the words of the prophecy of this scroll, because the time is nigh;

¹⁷ I thank Jehovah, According to His righteousness, And praise the name of Jehovah Most High!

⁵ And the Levites say, `even' Jeshua, and Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabniah, Sherebiah, Hodijah, Shebaniah, Pethahiah, `Rise, bless Jehovah your God, from the age unto the age, and they bless the name of Thine honour that `is' exalted above all blessing and praise.

³⁴ Give thanks to Jehovah, for good, For to the age, `is' His kindness,

¹ A Psalm of David, in his being in the wilderness of Judah. O God, Thou `art' my God, earnestly do I seek Thee, Thirsted for Thee hath my soul, Longed for Thee hath my flesh, In a land dry and weary, without waters.

³ Blessed `is' God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of the mercies, and God of all comfort,

⁴ who is comforting us in all our tribulation, for our being able to comfort those in any tribulation through the comfort with which we are comforted ourselves by God;

⁵ because, as the sufferings of the Christ do abound to us, so through the Christ doth abound also our comfort;

⁵ Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And bow yourselves at His footstool, holy `is' He.

³ let not any one deceive you in any manner, because -- if the falling away may not come first, and the man of sin be revealed -- the son of the destruction,

⁴ who is opposing and is raising himself up above all called God or worshipped, so that he in the sanctuary of God as God hath sat down, shewing himself off that he is God -- `the day doth not come'.

⁵ Do ye not remember that, being yet with you, these things I said to you?

¹ I call upon you, therefore, brethren, through the compassions of God, to present your bodies a sacrifice -- living, sanctified, acceptable to God -- your intelligent service;

² and be not conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, for your proving what `is' the will of God -- the good, and acceptable, and perfect.

³ For I say, through the grace that was given to me, to every one who is among you, not to think above what it behoveth to think; but to think so as to think wisely, as to each God did deal a measure of faith,

²² I declare Thy name to my brethren, In the midst of the assembly I praise Thee.

²³ Ye who fear Jehovah, praise ye Him, All the seed of Jacob, honour ye Him, And be afraid of Him, all ye seed of Israel.

²⁴ For He hath not despised, nor abominated, The affliction of the afflicted, Nor hath He hidden His face from him, And in his crying unto Him He heareth.

⁶ All that doth breathe doth praise Jah! Praise ye Jah!

⁸ draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you; cleanse hands, ye sinners! and purify hearts, ye two-souled!
