Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, {even} the sure mercies of David.

Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation: {and} my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness. {bloodguiltiness: Heb. bloods}

The living, the living, he shall praise thee, as I {do} this day: the father to the children shall make known thy truth.

The LORD hath chastened me sore: but he hath not given me over unto death.

Yea, in the way of thy judgments, O LORD, have we waited for thee; the desire of {our} soul {is} to thy name, and to the remembrance of thee.

For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.

What profit {is there} in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to {his} purpose.

I know, O LORD, that thy judgments {are} right, and {that} thou in faithfulness hast afflicted me. {right: Heb. righteousness}

For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding {and} eternal weight of glory;

Have mercy upon me, O LORD; consider my trouble {which I suffer} of them that hate me, thou that liftest me up from the gates of death:

He asked life of thee, {and} thou gavest {it} him, {even} length of days for ever and ever.

The living, the living, he shall praise thee, as I {do} this day: the father to the children shall make known thy truth.

Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee.

Behold now, this city {is} near to flee unto, and it {is} a little one: Oh, let me escape thither, ({is} it not a little one?) and my soul shall live.

And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth; for I have hoped in thy judgments.

Ye shall therefore keep all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do them: that the land, whither I bring you to dwell therein, spue you not out.
