| With the faithful You show Yourself faithful; With the blameless You prove Yourself blameless. | With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful; with an upright man thou wilt shew thyself upright. |
| For You light my lamp; The Lord my God illumines my darkness. | For thou wilt light my candle: the Lord my God will enlighten my darkness. |
| As for God, His way is blameless; The word of the Lord is refined; He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him. | As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the Lord is tried: he is a buckler to all those that trust in him. |
| For who is God, but the Lord? And who is a rock, except our God? | For who is God save the Lord? or who is a rock save our God? |
| You have also given me the shield of Your salvation, And Your right hand upholds me; And Your gentleness makes me great. You enlarge my steps under me, And my feet have not slipped. | Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy right hand hath holden me up, and thy gentleness hath made me great. Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, that my feet did not slip. |

Day to day pours forth speech, And night to night reveals knowledge. | The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge. |

| The precepts of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; The commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes. | The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes. |
| May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart Be acceptable in Your sight, Lord, my rock and my Redeemer. | Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer. |
| May He grant you your heart’s desire And fulfill your whole plan! | Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel. |
| Some praise their chariots and some their horses, But we will praise the name of the Lord, our God. | Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the Lord our God. |
