Psalm 150

Psalm 150 - King James Version

 1Praise ye the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power.

 2Praise him for his mighty acts: praise him according to his excellent greatness.

 3Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: praise him with the psaltery and harp.

 4Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs.

 5Praise him upon the loud cymbals: praise him upon the high sounding cymbals.

 6Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.

Psalm 149

Psalm 149 - King James Version

 1Praise ye the LORD. Sing unto the LORD a new song, and his praise in the congregation of saints.

 2Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.

 3Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp.

 4For the LORD taketh pleasure in his people: he will beautify the meek with salvation.

 5Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their beds.

 6Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand;

 7To execute vengeance upon the heathen, and punishments upon the people;

 8To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;

 9To execute upon them the judgment written: this honour have all his saints. Praise ye the LORD.

Psalm 148

Psalm 148 - King James Version

 1Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights.

 2Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts.

 3Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light.

 4Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.

 5Let them praise the name of the LORD: for he commanded, and they were created.

 6He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass.

 7Praise the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:

 8Fire, and hail; snow, and vapours; stormy wind fulfilling his word:

 9Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:

 10Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl:

 11Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth:

 12Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:

 13Let them praise the name of the LORD: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven.

 14He also exalteth the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Praise ye the LORD.

Psalm 147

Psalm 147 - King James Version

 1Praise ye the LORD: for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for it is pleasant; and praise is comely.

 2The LORD doth build up Jerusalem: he gathereth together the outcasts of Israel.

 3He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.

 4He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.

 5Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.

 6The LORD lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground.

 7Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God:

 8Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.

 9He giveth to the beast his food, and to the young ravens which cry.

 10He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: he taketh not pleasure in the legs of a man.

 11The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy.

 12Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Zion.

 13For he hath strengthened the bars of thy gates; he hath blessed thy children within thee.

 14He maketh peace in thy borders, and filleth thee with the finest of the wheat.

 15He sendeth forth his commandment upon earth: his word runneth very swiftly.

 16He giveth snow like wool: he scattereth the hoarfrost like ashes.

 17He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who can stand before his cold?

 18He sendeth out his word, and melteth them: he causeth his wind to blow, and the waters flow.

 19He sheweth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel.

 20He hath not dealt so with any nation: and as for his judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye the LORD.

Psalm 146

Psalm 146 - King James Version

 1Praise ye the LORD. Praise the LORD, O my soul.

 2While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.

 3Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.

 4His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.

 5Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God:

 6Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth truth for ever:

 7Which executeth judgment for the oppressed: which giveth food to the hungry. The LORD looseth the prisoners:

 8The LORD openeth the eyes of the blind: the LORD raiseth them that are bowed down: the LORD loveth the righteous:

 9The LORD preserveth the strangers; he relieveth the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down.

 10The LORD shall reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise ye the LORD.

Psalm 145

Psalm 145 - King James Version

 1I will extol thee, my God, O king; and I will bless thy name for ever and ever.

 2Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.

 3Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.

 4One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts.

 5I will speak of the glorious honour of thy majesty, and of thy wondrous works.

 6And men shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and I will declare thy greatness.

 7They shall abundantly utter the memory of thy great goodness, and shall sing of thy righteousness.

 8The LORD is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy.

 9The LORD is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.

 10All thy works shall praise thee, O LORD; and thy saints shall bless thee.

 11They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom, and talk of thy power;

 12To make known to the sons of men his mighty acts, and the glorious majesty of his kingdom.

 13Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and thy dominion endureth throughout all generations.

 14The LORD upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all those that be bowed down.

 15The eyes of all wait upon thee; and thou givest them their meat in due season.

 16Thou openest thine hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing.

 17The LORD is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works.

 18The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth.

 19He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear their cry, and will save them.

 20The LORD preserveth all them that love him: but all the wicked will he destroy.

 21My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD: and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever.

Psalm 144

Psalm 144 - King James Version

 1Blessed be the LORD my strength which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight:

 2My goodness, and my fortress; my high tower, and my deliverer; my shield, and he in whom I trust; who subdueth my people under me.

 3LORD, what is man, that thou takest knowledge of him! or the son of man, that thou makest account of him!

 4Man is like to vanity: his days are as a shadow that passeth away.

 5Bow thy heavens, O LORD, and come down: touch the mountains, and they shall smoke.

 6Cast forth lightning, and scatter them: shoot out thine arrows, and destroy them.

 7Send thine hand from above; rid me, and deliver me out of great waters, from the hand of strange children;

 8Whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood.

 9I will sing a new song unto thee, O God: upon a psaltery and an instrument of ten strings will I sing praises unto thee.

 10It is he that giveth salvation unto kings: who delivereth David his servant from the hurtful sword.

 11Rid me, and deliver me from the hand of strange children, whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood:

 12That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; that our daughters may be as corner stones, polished after the similitude of a palace:

 13That our garners may be full, affording all manner of store: that our sheep may bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our streets:

 14That our oxen may be strong to labour; that there be no breaking in, nor going out; that there be no complaining in our streets.

 15Happy is that people, that is in such a case: yea, happy is that people, whose God is the LORD.

Psalm 143

Psalm 143 - King James Version

 1Hear my prayer, O LORD, give ear to my supplications: in thy faithfulness answer me, and in thy righteousness.

 2And enter not into judgment with thy servant: for in thy sight shall no man living be justified.

 3For the enemy hath persecuted my soul; he hath smitten my life down to the ground; he hath made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have been long dead.

 4Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me; my heart within me is desolate.

 5I remember the days of old; I meditate on all thy works; I muse on the work of thy hands.

 6I stretch forth my hands unto thee: my soul thirsteth after thee, as a thirsty land. Selah.

 7Hear me speedily, O LORD: my spirit faileth: hide not thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.

 8Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning; for in thee do I trust: cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul unto thee.

 9Deliver me, O LORD, from mine enemies: I flee unto thee to hide me.

 10Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: thy spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness.

 11Quicken me, O LORD, for thy name's sake: for thy righteousness' sake bring my soul out of trouble.

 12And of thy mercy cut off mine enemies, and destroy all them that afflict my soul: for I am thy servant.

Psalm 142

Psalm 142 - King James Version

 1I cried unto the LORD with my voice; with my voice unto the LORD did I make my supplication.

 2I poured out my complaint before him; I shewed before him my trouble.

 3When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, then thou knewest my path. In the way wherein I walked have they privily laid a snare for me.

 4I looked on my right hand, and beheld, but there was no man that would know me: refuge failed me; no man cared for my soul.

 5I cried unto thee, O LORD: I said, Thou art my refuge and my portion in the land of the living.

 6Attend unto my cry; for I am brought very low: deliver me from my persecutors; for they are stronger than I.

 7Bring my soul out of prison, that I may praise thy name: the righteous shall compass me about; for thou shalt deal bountifully with me.

Psalm 141

Psalm 141 - King James Version

 1Lord, I cry unto thee: make haste unto me; give ear unto my voice, when I cry unto thee.

 2Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.

 3Set a watch, O LORD, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.

 4Incline not my heart to any evil thing, to practise wicked works with men that work iniquity: and let me not eat of their dainties.

 5Let the righteous smite me; it shall be a kindness: and let him reprove me; it shall be an excellent oil, which shall not break my head: for yet my prayer also shall be in their calamities.

 6When their judges are overthrown in stony places, they shall hear my words; for they are sweet.

 7Our bones are scattered at the grave's mouth, as when one cutteth and cleaveth wood upon the earth.

 8But mine eyes are unto thee, O GOD the Lord: in thee is my trust; leave not my soul destitute.

 9Keep me from the snares which they have laid for me, and the gins of the workers of iniquity.

 10Let the wicked fall into their own nets, whilst that I withal escape.

Psalm 140

Psalm 140 - King James Version

 1Deliver me, O LORD, from the evil man: preserve me from the violent man;

 2Which imagine mischiefs in their heart; continually are they gathered together for war.

 3They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent; adders' poison is under their lips. Selah.

 4Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked; preserve me from the violent man; who have purposed to overthrow my goings.

 5The proud have hid a snare for me, and cords; they have spread a net by the wayside; they have set gins for me. Selah.

 6I said unto the LORD, Thou art my God: hear the voice of my supplications, O LORD.

 7O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation, thou hast covered my head in the day of battle.

 8Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked: further not his wicked device; lest they exalt themselves. Selah.

 9As for the head of those that compass me about, let the mischief of their own lips cover them.

 10Let burning coals fall upon them: let them be cast into the fire; into deep pits, that they rise not up again.

 11Let not an evil speaker be established in the earth: evil shall hunt the violent man to overthrow him.

 12I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted, and the right of the poor.

 13Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto thy name: the upright shall dwell in thy presence.

Psalm 139

Psalm 139 - King James Version

 1O lord, thou hast searched me, and known me.

 2Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off.

 3Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.

 4For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether.

 5Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.

 6Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.

 7Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?

 8If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there.

 9If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;

 10Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.

 11If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me.

 12Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee.

 13For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb.

 14I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.

 15My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.

 16Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.

 17How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!

 18If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee.

 19Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloody men.

 20For they speak against thee wickedly, and thine enemies take thy name in vain.

 21Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee?

 22I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.

 23Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:

 24And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.

Psalm 138

Psalm 138 - King James Version

 1I will praise thee with my whole heart: before the gods will I sing praise unto thee.

 2I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.

 3In the day when I cried thou answeredst me, and strengthenedst me with strength in my soul.

 4All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O LORD, when they hear the words of thy mouth.

 5Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the LORD: for great is the glory of the LORD.

 6Though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the proud he knoweth afar off.

 7Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me.

 8The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands.

Psalm 137

Psalm 137 - King James Version

 1By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion.

 2We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof.

 3For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song; and they that wasted us required of us mirth, saying, Sing us one of the songs of Zion.

 4How shall we sing the LORD's song in a strange land?

 5If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning.

 6If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.

 7Remember, O LORD, the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem; who said, Rase it, rase it, even to the foundation thereof.

 8O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy shall he be, that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us.

 9Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.

Psalm 136

Psalm 136 - King James Version

 1O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.

 2O give thanks unto the God of gods: for his mercy endureth for ever.

 3O give thanks to the Lord of lords: for his mercy endureth for ever.

 4To him who alone doeth great wonders: for his mercy endureth for ever.

 5To him that by wisdom made the heavens: for his mercy endureth for ever.

 6To him that stretched out the earth above the waters: for his mercy endureth for ever.

 7To him that made great lights: for his mercy endureth for ever:

 8The sun to rule by day: for his mercy endureth for ever:

 9The moon and stars to rule by night: for his mercy endureth for ever.

 10To him that smote Egypt in their firstborn: for his mercy endureth for ever:

 11And brought out Israel from among them: for his mercy endureth for ever:

 12With a strong hand, and with a stretched out arm: for his mercy endureth for ever.

 13To him which divided the Red sea into parts: for his mercy endureth for ever:

 14And made Israel to pass through the midst of it: for his mercy endureth for ever:

 15But overthrew Pharaoh and his host in the Red sea: for his mercy endureth for ever.

 16To him which led his people through the wilderness: for his mercy endureth for ever.

 17To him which smote great kings: for his mercy endureth for ever:

 18And slew famous kings: for his mercy endureth for ever:

 19Sihon king of the Amorites: for his mercy endureth for ever:

 20And Og the king of Bashan: for his mercy endureth for ever:

 21And gave their land for an heritage: for his mercy endureth for ever:

 22Even an heritage unto Israel his servant: for his mercy endureth for ever.

 23Who remembered us in our low estate: for his mercy endureth for ever:

 24And hath redeemed us from our enemies: for his mercy endureth for ever.

 25Who giveth food to all flesh: for his mercy endureth for ever.

 26O give thanks unto the God of heaven: for his mercy endureth for ever.

Psalm 135

Psalm 135 - King James Version

 1Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the name of the LORD; praise him, O ye servants of the LORD.

 2Ye that stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God.

 3Praise the LORD; for the LORD is good: sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant.

 4For the LORD hath chosen Jacob unto himself, and Israel for his peculiar treasure.

 5For I know that the LORD is great, and that our Lord is above all gods.

 6Whatsoever the LORD pleased, that did he in heaven, and in earth, in the seas, and all deep places.

 7He causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; he maketh lightnings for the rain; he bringeth the wind out of his treasuries.

 8Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast.

 9Who sent tokens and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants.

 10Who smote great nations, and slew mighty kings;

 11Sihon king of the Amorites, and Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan:

 12And gave their land for an heritage, an heritage unto Israel his people.

 13Thy name, O LORD, endureth for ever; and thy memorial, O LORD, throughout all generations.

 14For the LORD will judge his people, and he will repent himself concerning his servants.

 15The idols of the heathen are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.

 16They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not;

 17They have ears, but they hear not; neither is there any breath in their mouths.

 18They that make them are like unto them: so is every one that trusteth in them.

 19Bless the LORD, O house of Israel: bless the LORD, O house of Aaron:

 20Bless the LORD, O house of Levi: ye that fear the LORD, bless the LORD.

 21Blessed be the LORD out of Zion, which dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise ye the LORD.

Psalm 134

Psalm 134 - King James Version

 1Behold, bless ye the LORD, all ye servants of the LORD, which by night stand in the house of the LORD.

 2Lift up your hands in the sanctuary, and bless the LORD.

 3The LORD that made heaven and earth bless thee out of Zion.

Psalm 133

Psalm 133 - King James Version

 1Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!

 2It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;

 3As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.

Psalm 132

Psalm 132 - King James Version

 1Lord, remember David, and all his afflictions:

 2How he sware unto the LORD, and vowed unto the mighty God of Jacob;

 3Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house, nor go up into my bed;

 4I will not give sleep to mine eyes, or slumber to mine eyelids,

 5Until I find out a place for the LORD, an habitation for the mighty God of Jacob.

 6Lo, we heard of it at Ephratah: we found it in the fields of the wood.

 7We will go into his tabernacles: we will worship at his footstool.

 8Arise, O LORD, into thy rest; thou, and the ark of thy strength.

 9Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness; and let thy saints shout for joy.

 10For thy servant David's sake turn not away the face of thine anointed.

 11The LORD hath sworn in truth unto David; he will not turn from it; Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne.

 12If thy children will keep my covenant and my testimony that I shall teach them, their children shall also sit upon thy throne for evermore.

 13For the LORD hath chosen Zion; he hath desired it for his habitation.

 14This is my rest for ever: here will I dwell; for I have desired it.

 15I will abundantly bless her provision: I will satisfy her poor with bread.

 16I will also clothe her priests with salvation: and her saints shall shout aloud for joy.

 17There will I make the horn of David to bud: I have ordained a lamp for mine anointed.

 18His enemies will I clothe with shame: but upon himself shall his crown flourish.

Psalm 131

Psalm 131 - King James Version

 1Lord, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty: neither do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too high for me.

 2Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his mother: my soul is even as a weaned child.

 3Let Israel hope in the LORD from henceforth and for ever.
