| Behold, God is mine helper: the Lord is with them that uphold my soul. | Surely God is my helper; the Lord is the one who sustains me. |
| Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved. | Entrust your cares to the Lord, and he will uphold you; he will never allow the righteous to waver. |
|
| What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee. | When I am terrified, I place my trust in you. |
| In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me. | In God, whose word I praise, in God I place my trust and know no fear; what can people do to me? |
| Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth. | Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let your glory shine over all the earth. |
| For thy mercy is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds. | For your kindness extends to the heavens; your faithfulness, to the skies. |
| But I will sing of thy power; yea, I will sing aloud of thy mercy in the morning: for thou hast been my defence and refuge in the day of my trouble. | But I will sing of your strength; when morning dawns, I will proclaim your kindness. For you have been my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble. |
| Truly my soul waiteth upon God: from him cometh my salvation. | In God alone is my soul at rest; it is from him that my salvation comes. |
| He only is my rock and my salvation; he is my defence; I shall not be greatly moved. | He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress, so that I stand ever unshaken. |
| My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him. | In God alone be at rest, O my soul; it is from him that my hope comes. |
| He only is my rock and my salvation: he is my defence; I shall not be moved. | He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress, so that I stand unshaken. |
| In God is my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God. | My deliverance and my glory depend on God; he is my mighty rock and my refuge. |
| Also unto thee, O Lord, belongeth mercy: for thou renderest to every man according to his work. | And so does kindness, O Lord. You reward each person in accordance with his deeds. |
| O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is. | O God, you are my God, for whom I have been searching earnestly. My soul yearns for you and my body thirsts for you, like the earth when it is parched, arid and without water. |
| Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee. Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name. | Your kindness is a greater joy than life itself; thus my lips will speak your praise. I will bless you all my life; with uplifted hands I will call on your name. |
| For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried. | For you, O God, have put us to the test; you have purified us as silver is refined. |
| I cried unto him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue. | I lifted up my voice in prayer to him; his praise was on my tongue. |
| God shall bless us; and all the ends of the earth shall fear him. | May God continue to bless us and be revered to the ends of the earth. |
| Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: extol him that rideth upon the heavens by his name Jah, and rejoice before him. A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, is God in his holy habitation. | Sing to God, sing praise to his name; exalt him who rides upon the clouds. Rejoice in the presence of this God whose name is the Lord. The Father of orphans and the defender of widows: such is God in his holy dwelling place. |
| God setteth the solitary in families: he bringeth out those which are bound with chains: but the rebellious dwell in a dry land. | He gives a home to those who are forsaken and leads out prisoners amid chants of exultation, while rebels are forced to live in an arid land. |
| Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Selah. | Blessed be the Lord, day after day, the God of our salvation, who carries our burden. Selah |
| Let my mouth be filled with thy praise and with thy honour all the day. | My mouth is filled with your praises as I relate your glory all day long. |
| My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing unto thee; and my soul, which thou hast redeemed. | When I sing to you, my lips will rejoice, and so will my soul, which you have redeemed. |
| Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee. | Whom do I have in heaven except you? And besides you there is nothing else I desire on earth. |
| My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever. | Even should my heart and my flesh fail, God is the rock of my heart and my portion forever. |
