1 In my being afflicted I called on the name of the Lord; for help I hoped in the God of Jacob, and I was saved, because you are the hope and refuge of the poor, O God
2 For who is strong, O God, except to give thanks to you in truth? And what is man able, except to give thanks to your name?
3 A new psalm with song in gladness of heart, the fruit of lips, with a fitted instrument of a tongue, the firstfruits of lips from a holy and righteous heart
4 The one doing these things shall not be shaken forever; from evil, flame of fire, and the wrath of the unjust shall not touch him.
5 when he goes out against sinners from before the face of the Lord to destroy every substance of sinners
6 For the sign of God is upon the righteous for salvation
7 Famine and sword and death will flee far from the righteous, for they will flee as those pursued by war, from the holy ones.
8 But sinners will be pursued, and they will be overtaken, and those who do lawlessness will not escape the judgment of the Lord.
9 they will be overtaken as by experienced enemies, for the sign of destruction is upon their forehead
10 and the inheritance of sinners is destruction and darkness, and their lawless deeds will pursue them down to Hades below
11 their inheritance shall not be found for their children, for their sins will lay waste the houses of sinners
12 and sinners will perish on the day of the Lord’s judgment forever, when God visits the earth in his judgment
13 But those fearing the Lord will be shown mercy in it, and they will live by the mercy of their God, and sinners will perish forevertime
