Book I
Psalm 1
1:1Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
1:2But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
1:3And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
1:4The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.
1:5Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
1:6For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish. -

Psalm 2
2:1Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? -
2:2The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,
2:3Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.
2:4He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.
2:5Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.
2:6Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.
2:7I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.
2:8Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.
2:9Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter�s vessel.
2:10Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.
2:11Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
2:12Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him. -

Psalm 3
A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son.
3:1LORD, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.
3:2Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah.
3:3But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.
3:4I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah.
3:5I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.
3:6I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about.
3:7Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly.
3:8Salvation belongeth unto the LORD: thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah. -

Psalm 4
To the chief Musician on Neginoth, A Psalm of David.
4:1Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness: thou hast enlarged me when I was in distress; have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.
4:2O ye sons of men, how long will ye turn my glory into shame? how long will ye love vanity, and seek after leasing? Selah.
4:3But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD will hear when I call unto him.
4:4Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah.
4:5Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD.
4:6There be many that say, Who will shew us any good? LORD, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.
4:7Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than in the time that their corn and their wine increased.
4:8I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety. -

Psalm 5
To the chief Musician upon Nehiloth, A Psalm of David.
5:1Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my meditation.
5:2Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray.
5:3My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.
5:4For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee.
5:5The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
5:6Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the LORD will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.
5:7But as for me, I will come into thy house in the multitude of thy mercy: and in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.
5:8Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face.
5:9For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.
5:10Destroy thou them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against thee.
5:11But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.
5:12For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield. -

Psalm 6
To the chief Musician on Neginoth upon Sheminith, A Psalm of David.
6:1O LORD, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
6:2Have mercy upon me, O LORD; for I am weak: O LORD, heal me; for my bones are vexed.
6:3My soul is also sore vexed: but thou, O LORD, how long?
6:4Return, O LORD, deliver my soul: oh save me for thy mercies� sake.
6:5For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who shall give thee thanks?
6:6I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears.
6:7Mine eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all mine enemies.
6:8Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for the LORD hath heard the voice of my weeping.
6:9The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will receive my prayer.
6:10Let all mine enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them return and be ashamed suddenly. -

Psalm 7
Shiggaion of David, which he sang unto the LORD, concerning the words of Cush the Benjamite.
7:1O Lord my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me:
7:2Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
7:3O LORD my God, if I have done this; if there be iniquity in my hands;
7:4If I have rewarded evil unto him that was at peace with me; (yea, I have delivered him that without cause is mine enemy:)
7:5Let the enemy persecute my soul, and take it; yea, let him tread down my life upon the earth, and lay mine honour in the dust. Selah.
7:6Arise, O LORD, in thine anger, lift up thyself because of the rage of mine enemies: and awake for me to the judgment that thou hast commanded.
7:7So shall the congregation of the people compass thee about: for their sakes therefore return thou on high.
7:8The LORD shall judge the people: judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me.
7:9Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins.
7:10My defence is of God, which saveth the upright in heart.
7:11God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.
7:12If he turn not, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made it ready.
7:13He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death; he ordaineth his arrows against the persecutors.
7:14Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, and hath conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.
7:15He made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made.
7:16His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing shall come down upon his own pate.
7:17I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high. -

Psalm 8
To the chief Musician upon Gittith, A Psalm of David.
8:1O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens.
8:2Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.
8:3When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;
8:4What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?
8:5For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.
8:6Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet:
8:7All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;
8:8The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.
8:9O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! -

Psalm 9
To the chief Musician upon Muthlabben, A Psalm of David.
9:1I will praise thee, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.
9:2I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O thou most High.
9:3When mine enemies are turned back, they shall fall and perish at thy presence.
9:4For thou hast maintained my right and my cause; thou satest in the throne judging right.
9:5Thou hast rebuked the heathen, thou hast destroyed the wicked, thou hast put out their name for ever and ever.
9:6O thou enemy, destructions are come to a perpetual end: and thou hast destroyed cities; their memorial is perished with them.
9:7But the LORD shall endure for ever: he hath prepared his throne for judgment.
9:8And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness.
9:9The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.
9:10And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.
9:11Sing praises to the LORD, which dwelleth in Zion: declare among the people his doings.
9:12When he maketh inquisition for blood, he remembereth them: he forgetteth not the cry of the humble.
9:13Have 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:
9:14That I may shew forth all thy praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion: I will rejoice in thy salvation.
9:15The heathen are sunk down in the pit that they made: in the net which they hid is their own foot taken.
9:16The LORD is known by the judgment which he executeth: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah.
9:17The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.
9:18For the needy shall not alway be forgotten: the expectation of the poor shall not perish for ever.
9:19Arise, O LORD; let not man prevail: let the heathen be judged in thy sight.
9:20Put them in fear, O LORD: that the nations may know themselves to be but men. Selah. -

Psalm 10
10:1Why standest thou afar off, O LORD? why hidest thou thyself in times of trouble?
10:2The wicked in his pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined.
10:3For the wicked boasteth of his heart�s desire, and blesseth the covetous, whom the LORD abhorreth.
10:4The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts.
10:5His ways are always grievous; thy judgments are far above out of his sight: as for all his enemies, he puffeth at them.
10:6He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for I shall never be in adversity.
10:7His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue is mischief and vanity.
10:8He sitteth in the lurking places of the villages: in the secret places doth he murder the innocent: his eyes are privily set against the poor.
10:9He lieth in wait secretly as a lion in his den: he lieth in wait to catch the poor: he doth catch the poor, when he draweth him into his net.
10:10He croucheth, and humbleth himself, that the poor may fall by his strong ones.
10:11He hath said in his heart, God hath forgotten: he hideth his face; he will never see it.
10:12Arise, O LORD; O God, lift up thine hand: forget not the humble.
10:13Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? he hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require it.
10:14Thou hast seen it; for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to requite it with thy hand: the poor committeth himself unto thee; thou art the helper of the fatherless.
10:15Break thou the arm of the wicked and the evil man: seek out his wickedness till thou find none.
10:16The LORD is King for ever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land.
10:17LORD, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear:
10:18To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may no more oppress. -

Psalm 11
To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.
11:1In the LORD put I my trust: How say ye to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain?
11:2For, lo, the wicked bend their bow, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart.
11:3If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?
11:4The LORD is in his holy temple, the LORD�S throne is in heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men.
11:5The LORD trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.
11:6Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and an horrible tempest: this shall be the portion of their cup.
11:7For the righteous LORD loveth righteousness; his countenance doth behold the upright. -

Psalm 12
To the chief Musician upon Sheminith, A Psalm of David.
12:1Help, LORD; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men.
12:2They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: with flattering lips and with a double heart do they speak.
12:3The LORD shall cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things:
12:4Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us?
12:5For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith the LORD; I will set him in safety from him that puffeth at him.
12:6The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
12:7Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.
12:8The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted. -
-
Psalm 13
To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.
13:1How long wilt thou forget me, O LORD? for ever? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me?
13:2How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart daily? how long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?
13:3Consider and hear me, O LORD my God: lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;
13:4Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him; and those that trouble me rejoice when I am moved.
13:5But I have trusted in thy mercy; my heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.
13:6I will sing unto the LORD, because he hath dealt bountifully with me. -
-
Psalm 14
To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.
14:1The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
14:2The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God.
14:3They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
14:4Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD.
14:5There were they in great fear: for God is in the generation of the righteous.
14:6Ye have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the LORD is his refuge.
14:7Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! when the LORD bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad. -
-
Psalm 15
A Psalm of David.
15:1LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?
15:2He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.
15:3He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.
15:4In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth them that fear the LORD. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not.
15:5He that putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved. -
-
Psalm 16
Michtam of David.
16:1Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust.
16:2O my soul, thou hast said unto the LORD, Thou art my Lord: my goodness extendeth not to thee;
16:3But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.
16:4Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another god: their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take up their names into my lips.
16:5The LORD is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot.
16:6The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.
16:7I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel: my reins also instruct me in the night seasons.
16:8I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
16:9Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope.
16:10For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.
16:11Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore. -

Psalm 17
A Prayer of David.
17:1Hear the right, O LORD, attend unto my cry, give ear unto my prayer, that goeth not out of feigned lips.
17:2Let my sentence come forth from thy presence; let thine eyes behold the things that are equal.
17:3Thou hast proved mine heart; thou hast visited me in the night; thou hast tried me, and shalt find nothing; I am purposed that my mouth shall not transgress.
17:4Concerning the works of men, by the word of thy lips I have kept me from the paths of the destroyer.
17:5Hold up my goings in thy paths, that my footsteps slip not.
17:6I have called upon thee, for thou wilt hear me, O God: incline thine ear unto me, and hear my speech.
17:7Shew thy marvellous lovingkindness, O thou that savest by thy right hand them which put their trust in thee from those that rise up against them.
17:8Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings,
17:9From the wicked that oppress me, from my deadly enemies, who compass me about.
17:10They are inclosed in their own fat: with their mouth they speak proudly.
17:11They have now compassed us in our steps: they have set their eyes bowing down to the earth;
17:12Like as a lion that is greedy of his prey, and as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.
17:13Arise, O LORD, disappoint him, cast him down: deliver my soul from the wicked, which is thy sword:
17:14From men which are thy hand, O LORD, from men of the world, which have their portion in this life, and whose belly thou fillest with thy hid treasure: they are full of children, and leave the rest of their substance to their babes.
17:15As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness. -

Psalm 18
To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, the servant of the LORD, who spake unto the LORD the words of this song in the day that the LORD delivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul: And he said,
18:1I will love thee, O LORD, my strength.
18:2The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.
18:3I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.
18:4The sorrows of death compassed me, and the floods of ungodly men made me afraid.
18:5The sorrows of hell compassed me about: the snares of death prevented me.
18:6In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried unto my God: he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him, even into his ears.
18:7Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations also of the hills moved and were shaken, because he was wroth.
18:8There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it.
18:9He bowed the heavens also, and came down: and darkness was under his feet.
18:10And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: yea, he did fly upon the wings of the wind.
18:11He made darkness his secret place; his pavilion round about him were dark waters and thick clouds of the skies.
18:12At the brightness that was before him his thick clouds passed, hail stones and coals of fire.
18:13The LORD also thundered in the heavens, and the Highest gave his voice; hail stones and coals of fire.
18:14Yea, he sent out his arrows, and scattered them; and he shot out lightnings, and discomfited them.
18:15Then the channels of waters were seen, and the foundations of the world were discovered at thy rebuke, O LORD, at the blast of the breath of thy nostrils.
18:16He sent from above, he took me, he drew me out of many waters.
18:17He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them which hated me: for they were too strong for me.
18:18They prevented me in the day of my calamity: but the LORD was my stay.
18:19He brought me forth also into a large place; he delivered me, because he delighted in me.
18:20The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness; according to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me.
18:21For I have kept the ways of the LORD, and have not wickedly departed from my God.
18:22For all his judgments were before me, and I did not put away his statutes from me.
18:23I was also upright before him, and I kept myself from mine iniquity.
18:24Therefore hath the LORD recompensed me according to my righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands in his eyesight.
18:25With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful; with an upright man thou wilt shew thyself upright;
18:26With the pure thou wilt shew thyself pure; and with the froward thou wilt shew thyself froward.
18:27For thou wilt save the afflicted people; but wilt bring down high looks.
18:28For thou wilt light my candle: the LORD my God will enlighten my darkness.
18:29For by thee I have run through a troop; and by my God have I leaped over a wall.
18:30As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the LORD is tried: he is a buckler to all those that trust in him.
18:31For who is God save the LORD? or who is a rock save our God?
18:32It is God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect.
18:33He maketh my feet like hinds� feet, and setteth me upon my high places.
18:34He teacheth my hands to war, so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms.
18:35Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy right hand hath holden me up, and thy gentleness hath made me great.
18:36Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, that my feet did not slip.
18:37I have pursued mine enemies, and overtaken them: neither did I turn again till they were consumed.
18:38I have wounded them that they were not able to rise: they are fallen under my feet.
18:39For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle: thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me.
18:40Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies; that I might destroy them that hate me.
18:41They cried, but there was none to save them: even unto the LORD, but he answered them not.
18:42Then did I beat them small as the dust before the wind: I did cast them out as the dirt in the streets.
18:43Thou hast delivered me from the strivings of the people; and thou hast made me the head of the heathen: a people whom I have not known shall serve me.
18:44As soon as they hear of me, they shall obey me: the strangers shall submit themselves unto me.
18:45The strangers shall fade away, and be afraid out of their close places.
18:46The LORD liveth; and blessed be my rock; and let the God of my salvation be exalted.
18:47It is God that avengeth me, and subdueth the people under me.
18:48He delivereth me from mine enemies: yea, thou liftest me up above those that rise up against me: thou hast delivered me from the violent man.
18:49Therefore will I give thanks unto thee, O LORD, among the heathen, and sing praises unto thy name.
18:50Great deliverance giveth he to his king; and sheweth mercy to his anointed, to David, and to his seed for evermore. -

Psalm 19
To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.
19:1The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
19:2Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.
19:3There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.
19:4Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,
19:5Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.
19:6His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.
19:7The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.
19:8The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.
19:9The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether.
19:10More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.
19:11Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward.
19:12Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults.
19:13Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great transgression.
19:14Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer. -

Psalm 20
To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.
20:1The LORD hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend thee;
20:2Send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion;
20:3Remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt sacrifice; Selah.
20:4Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.
20:5We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners: the LORD fulfil all thy petitions.
20:6Now know I that the LORD saveth his anointed; he will hear him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.
20:7Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the LORD our God.
20:8They are brought down and fallen: but we are risen, and stand upright.
20:9Save, LORD: let the king hear us when we call. -

Psalm 21
To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.
21:1The king shall joy in thy strength, O LORD; and in thy salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!
21:2Thou hast given him his heart�s desire, and hast not withholden the request of his lips. Selah.
21:3For thou preventest him with the blessings of goodness: thou settest a crown of pure gold on his head.
21:4He asked life of thee, and thou gavest it him, even length of days for ever and ever.
21:5His glory is great in thy salvation: honour and majesty hast thou laid upon him.
