¹ A Song, a Psalm, by sons of Korah, to the Overseer, `Concerning the Sickness of Afflictions.' -- An instruction, by Heman the Ezrahite. O Jehovah, God of my salvation, Daily I have cried, nightly before Thee,

⁷ and shall not God execute the justice to His choice ones, who are crying unto Him day and night -- bearing long in regard to them?

² My God, I call by day, and Thou answerest not, And by night, and there is no silence to me.

¹⁴ Deliver me from blood, O God, God of my salvation, My tongue singeth of Thy righteousness.

⁹ Hide not Thy face from me, Turn not aside in anger Thy servant, My help Thou hast been. Leave me not, nor forsake me, O God of my salvation.

³¹ and he is wiser than all men, than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman, and Chalcol, and Darda, sons of Mahol, and his name is in all the nations round about.

⁶ And sons of Zerah: Zimri, and Ethan, and Heman, and Calcol, and Dara; all of them five.

¹ To the Overseer. -- `On a disease.' -- An instruction, by David. A fool said in his heart, `There is no God.' They have done corruptly, Yea, they have done abominable iniquity, There is none doing good.

³ Favour me, O Lord, for to Thee I call all the day.

² Lo, God `is' my salvation, I trust, and fear not, For my strength and song `is' Jah Jehovah, And He is to me for salvation.

⁴ and when the kindness and the love to men of God our Saviour did appear

⁵ (not by works that `are' in righteousness that we did but according to His kindness,) He did save us, through a bathing of regeneration, and a renewing of the Holy Spirit,

⁶ which He poured upon us richly, through Jesus Christ our Saviour,

⁷ that having been declared righteous by His grace, heirs we may become according to the hope of life age-during.

¹³ waiting for the blessed hope and manifestation of the glory of our great God and Saviour Jesus Christ,

¹⁰ not purloining, but showing all good stedfastness, that the teaching of God our Saviour they may adorn in all things.

³ I am thankful to God, whom I serve from progenitors in a pure conscience, that unceasingly I have remembrance concerning thee in my supplications night and day,

¹⁰ night and day exceedingly beseeching, that we might see your face, and perfect the things lacking in your faith.

³⁷ and she `is' a widow of about eighty-four years, who did depart not from the temple, with fasts and supplications serving, night and day,

⁶ let Thine ear be, I pray Thee, attentive, and Thine eyes open, to hearken unto the prayer of Thy servant, that I am praying before Thee to-day, by day and by night, concerning the sons of Israel Thy servants, and confessing concerning the sins of the sons of Israel, that we have sinned against Thee; yea, I and the house of my father have sinned;

⁵ He beareth away a blessing from Jehovah, Righteousness from the God of his salvation.

¹ By David. Jehovah `is' my light and my salvation, Whom do I fear? Jehovah `is' the strength of my life, Of whom am I afraid?

⁷ On God `is' my salvation, and my honour, The rock of my strength, my refuge `is' in God.

⁵ By fearful things in righteousness Thou answerest us, O God of our salvation, The confidence of all far off ends of earth and sea.

¹⁹ Blessed `is' the Lord, day by day He layeth on us. God Himself `is' our salvation. Selah.

⁹ Help us, O God of our salvation, Because of the honour of Thy name, And deliver us, and cover over our sins, For Thy name's sake.

⁷ O Jehovah, my Lord, strength of my salvation, Thou hast covered my head in the day of armour.

⁶ `On thy walls, O Jerusalem, I have appointed watchmen, All the day, and all the night, Continually, they are not silent.' O ye remembrancers of Jehovah, Keep not silence for yourselves,

⁴⁷ And my spirit was glad on God my Saviour,

³⁰ because mine eyes did see Thy salvation,

¹⁸ For Thy salvation I have waited, Jehovah!
