1A psalm of a canticle, at the dedication of David’s house.
1A Psalm of David. Ascribe unto the LORD, O ye sons of might, ascribe unto the LORD glory and strength.
2I will extol thee, O Lord, for thou hast upheld me: and hast not made my enemies to rejoice over me.
2Ascribe unto the LORD the glory due unto His name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.
3O Lord my God, I have cried to thee, and then hast healed me.
3The voice of the LORD is upon the waters; the God of glory thundereth, even the LORD upon many waters.
4Thou hast brought forth, O Lord, my soul from hell: thou hast saved me from them that go down into the pit.
4The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is full of majesty.
5Sing to the Lord, O ye his saints: and give praise to the memory of his holiness.
5The voice of the LORD breaketh the cedars; yea, the LORD breaketh in pieces the cedars of Lebanon.
6For wrath is in his indignation; and life in his good will. In the evening weeping shall have place, and in the morning gladness.
6He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young wild-ox.
7And in my abundance I said: I shall never be moved.
7The voice of the LORD heweth out flames of fire.
8O Lord, in thy favour, thou gavest strength to my beauty. Thou turnedst away thy face from me, and I became troubled.
8The voice of the LORD shaketh the wilderness; the LORD shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.
9To thee, O Lord, will I cry: and I will make supplication to my God.
9The voice of the LORD maketh the hinds to calve, and strippeth the forests bare; and in His temple all say: 'Glory.'
10What profit is there in my blood, whilst I go down to corruption? Shall dust confess to thee, or declare thy truth?
10The LORD sat enthroned at the flood; yea, the LORD sitteth as King for ever.
11The Lord hath heard, and hath had mercy on me: the Lord became my helper.
11The LORD will give strength unto His people; the LORD will bless his people with peace.
12Thou hast turned for me my mourning into joy: thou hast cut my sackcloth, and hast compassed me with gladness:
