Psalms 39

1

To the Overseer, to Jeduthun. -- A Psalm of David. I have said, `I observe my ways, Against sinning with my tongue, I keep for my mouth a curb, while the wicked [is] before me.'

2

I was dumb [with] silence, I kept silent from good, and my pain is excited.

3

Hot [is] my heart within me, In my meditating doth the fire burn, I have spoken with my tongue.

4

`Cause me to know, O Jehovah, mine end, And the measure of my days -- what it [is],' I know how frail I [am].

5

Lo, handbreadths Thou hast made my days, And mine age [is] as nothing before Thee, Only, all vanity [is] every man set up. Selah.

6

Only, in an image doth each walk habitually, Only, [in] vain, they are disquieted, He heapeth up and knoweth not who gathereth them.

7

And, now, what have I expected? O Lord, my hope -- it [is] of Thee.

8

From all my transgressions deliver me, A reproach of the fool make me not.

9

I have been dumb, I open not my mouth, Because Thou -- Thou hast done [it].

10

Turn aside from off me Thy stroke, From the striving of Thy hand I have been consumed.

11

With reproofs against iniquity, Thou hast corrected man, And dost waste as a moth his desirableness, Only, vanity [is] every man. Selah.

12

Hear my prayer, O Jehovah, And [to] my cry give ear, Unto my tear be not silent, For a sojourner I [am] with Thee, A settler like all my fathers.

13

Look from me, and I brighten up before I go and am not!

Psalms 40

1

To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David. I have diligently expected Jehovah, And He inclineth to me, and heareth my cry,

2

And He doth cause me to come up From a pit of desolation -- from mire of mud, And He raiseth up on a rock my feet, He is establishing my steps.

3

And He putteth in my mouth a new song, `Praise to our God.' Many do see and fear, and trust in Jehovah.

4

O the happiness of the man Who hath made Jehovah his trust, And hath not turned unto the proud, And those turning aside to lies.

5

Much hast Thou done, Jehovah my God; Thy wonders and Thy thoughts toward us, There is none to arrange unto Thee, I declare and speak: They have been more than to be numbered.

6

Sacrifice and present Thou hast not desired, Ears Thou hast prepared for me, Burnt and sin-offering Thou hast not asked.

7

Then said I, `Lo, I have come,' In the roll of the book it is written of me,

8

To do Thy pleasure, my God, I have delighted, And Thy law [is] within my heart.

9

I have proclaimed tidings of righteousness In the great assembly, lo, my lips I restrain not, O Jehovah, Thou hast known.

10

Thy righteousness I have not concealed In the midst of my heart, Thy faithfulness and Thy salvation I have told, I have not hidden Thy kindness and Thy truth, To the great assembly.

11

Thou, O Jehovah, restrainest not Thy mercies from me, Thy kindness and Thy truth do continually keep me.

12

For compassed me have evils innumerable, Overtaken me have mine iniquities, And I have not been able to see; They have been more than the hairs of my head, And my heart hath forsaken me.

13

Be pleased, O Jehovah, to deliver me, O Jehovah, for my help make haste.

14

They are ashamed and confounded together, Who are seeking my soul to destroy it, They are turned backward, And are ashamed, who are desiring my evil.

15

They are desolate because of their shame, Who are saying to me, `Aha, aha.'

16

All seeking Thee rejoice and are glad in Thee, Those loving Thy salvation say continually, `Jehovah is magnified.'

17

And I [am] poor and needy, The Lord doth devise for me. My help and my deliverer [art] Thou, O my God, tarry Thou not.

Psalms 41

1

To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David. O the happiness of him Who is acting wisely unto the poor, In a day of evil doth Jehovah deliver him.

2

Jehovah doth preserve him and revive him, He is happy in the land, And Thou givest him not into the will of his enemies.

3

Jehovah supporteth on a couch of sickness, All his bed Thou hast turned in his weakness.

4

I -- I said, `O Jehovah, favour me, Heal my soul, for I did sin against Thee,'

5

Mine enemies say evil of me: When he dieth -- his name hath perished!

6

And if he came to see -- vanity he speaketh, His heart gathereth iniquity to itself, He goeth out -- at the street he speaketh.

7

All hating me whisper together against me, Against me they devise evil to me:

8

A thing of Belial is poured out on him, And because he lay down he riseth not again.

9

Even mine ally, in whom I trusted, One eating my bread, made great the heel against me,

10

And Thou, Jehovah, favour me, And cause me to rise, And I give recompence to them.

11

By this I have known, That Thou hast delighted in me, Because my enemy shouteth not over me.

12

As to me, in mine integrity, Thou hast taken hold upon me, And causest me to stand before Thee to the age.

13

Blessed [is] Jehovah, God of Israel, From the age -- and unto the age. Amen and Amen.
