How long, O you sons of men, Will you turn my glory to shame? How long will you love worthlessness And seek falsehood? Selah

But let all those rejoice who put their trust in You; Let them ever shout for joy, because You defend them; Let those also who love Your name Be joyful in You.

The Lord tests the righteous, But the wicked and the one who loves violence His soul hates.

For the Lord is righteous, He loves righteousness; His countenance beholds the upright.

God the Sovereign Savior

To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David the servant of the Lord, who spoke to the Lord the words of this song on the day that the Lord delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul. And he said:

I will love You, O Lord, my strength.

Lord, I have loved the habitation of Your house, And the place where Your glory dwells.

Oh, love the Lord, all you His saints! For the Lord preserves the faithful, And fully repays the proud person.

He loves righteousness and justice; The earth is full of the goodness of the Lord.

Who is the man who desires life, And loves many days, that he may see good?

For the Lord loves justice, And does not forsake His saints; They are preserved forever, But the descendants of the wicked shall be cut off.

My loved ones and my friends stand aloof from my plague, And my relatives stand afar off.

Let all those who seek You rejoice and be glad in You; Let such as love Your salvation say continually, “The Lord be magnified!”

The Glories of the Messiah and His Bride

To the Chief Musician. Set to “The Lilies.” A Contemplation of the sons of Korah. A Song of Love.

My heart is overflowing with a good theme; I recite my composition concerning the King; My tongue is the pen of a ready writer.

You love righteousness and hate wickedness; Therefore God, Your God, has anointed You With the oil of gladness more than Your companions.

He will choose our inheritance for us, The excellence of Jacob whom He loves. Selah

You love evil more than good, Lying rather than speaking righteousness. Selah

You love all devouring words, You deceitful tongue.

Also, the descendants of His servants shall inherit it, And those who love His name shall dwell in it.

Let all those who seek You rejoice and be glad in You; And let those who love Your salvation say continually, “Let God be magnified!”

But chose the tribe of Judah, Mount Zion which He loved.

The Blessedness of Dwelling in the House of God

To the Chief Musician. On an instrument of Gath. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.

How lovely is Your tabernacle, O Lord of hosts!

The Lord loves the gates of Zion More than all the dwellings of Jacob.

Loved one and friend You have put far from me, And my acquaintances into darkness.

“Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him; I will set him on high, because he has known My name.

Praise to the Lord for His Love and Faithfulness

A Psalm. A Song for the Sabbath day.

It is good to give thanks to the Lord, And to sing praises to Your name, O Most High;
