2 Prayse the Lord with harpe: sing vnto him with viole and instrument of ten strings.

Sing to him a new song. Play skillfully with a shout of joy.
4 For the word of the Lord is righteous, and all his workes are faithfull.
For the word of Jehovah is right. All his work is done in faithfulness.
5 He loueth righteousnesse and iudgement: the earth is full of the goodnesse of the Lord.

6 By the worde of the Lord were the heauens made, and all the hoste of them by the breath of his mouth.
By the word of Jehovah the heavens were made; and all their host by the breath of his mouth.
7 He gathereth the waters of the sea together as vpon an heape, and layeth vp the depths in his treasures.
He gathers the waters of the sea together as a heap. He lays up the deeps in storehouses.
8 Let all the earth feare the Lord: let al them that dwell in the world, feare him.
Let all the earth fear Jehovah. Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
9 For he spake, and it was done: he commanded, and it stood.

10 The Lord breaketh the counsell of the heathen, and bringeth to nought the deuices of the people.
Jehovah nullifies the counsel of the nations. He makes the thoughts of the peoples to be of no effect.
11 The counsell of the Lord shall stand for euer, and the thoughts of his heart throughout all ages.
The counsel of Jehovah stands fast forever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
12 Blessed is that nation, whose God is the Lord: euen the people that he hath chosen for his inheritance.

13 The Lord looketh downe from heauen, and beholdeth all the children of men.
Jehovah looks from heaven. He sees all the descendants of Adam.
14 From the habitation of his dwelling he beholdeth all them that dwell in the earth.
From the place of his habitation he looks out on all the inhabitants of the earth,
15 He facioneth their hearts euery one, and vnderstandeth all their workes.

16 The King is not saued by the multitude of an hoste, neither is the mightie man deliuered by great strength.
There is no king saved by the multitude of an army. A mighty man is not delivered by great strength.
17 A horse is a vaine helpe, and shall not deliuer any by his great strength.
A horse is a vain thing for safety, neither does he deliver any by his great power.
18 Beholde, the eye of the Lord is vpon them that feare him, and vpon them, that trust in his mercie,
Look, Jehovah's eye is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his loving kindness;
19 To deliuer their soules from death, and to preserue them in famine.
to deliver their soul from death, to keep them alive in famine.
20 Our soule waiteth for the Lord: for he is our helpe and our shielde.
Our soul waits for Jehovah. He is our help and our shield.
21 Surely our heart shall reioyce in him, because we trusted in his holy Name.
For our heart rejoices in him, because we have trusted in his holy name.
22 Let thy mercie, O Lord, be vpon vs, as we trust in thee.
Let your loving kindness be on us, Jehovah, since we have hoped in you.
