ASV - Psalms 110 to 114

Psalm 110

A Psalm of David.

¹Jehovah saith unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, Until I make thine enemies thy footstool. ²Jehovah will send forth the rod of thy strength out of Zion: Rule thou in the midst of thine enemies. ³Thy people offer themselves willingly In the day of thy power, in holy array: Out of the womb of the morning Thou hast the dew of thy youth. ⁴Jehovah hath sworn, and will not repent: Thou art a priest for ever After the order of Melchizedek. ⁵The Lord at thy right hand Will strike through kings in the day of his wrath. ⁶He will judge among the nations, He will fill the places with dead bodies; He will strike through the head in many countries. ⁷He will drink of the brook in the way: Therefore will he lift up the head.

Psalm 111

¹Praise ye Jehovah. I will give thanks unto Jehovah with my whole heart, In the council of the upright, and in the congregation.

²The works of Jehovah are great, Sought out of all them that have pleasure therein. ³His work is honor and majesty; And his righteousness endureth for ever. ⁴He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: Jehovah is gracious and merciful. ⁵He hath given food unto them that fear him: He will ever be mindful of his covenant. ⁶He hath showed his people the power of his works, In giving them the heritage of the nations. ⁷The works of his hands are truth and justice; All his precepts are sure. ⁸They are established for ever and ever; They are done in truth and uprightness. ⁹He hath sent redemption unto his people; He hath commanded his covenant for ever: Holy and reverend is his name. ¹⁰The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of wisdom; A good understanding have all they that do his commandments: His praise endureth for ever.

Psalm 112

¹Praise ye Jehovah. Blessed is the man that feareth Jehovah, That delighteth greatly in his commandments.

²His seed shall be mighty upon earth: The generation of the upright shall be blessed. ³Wealth and riches are in his house; And his righteousness endureth for ever. ⁴Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: He is gracious, and merciful, and righteous. ⁵Well is it with the man that dealeth graciously and lendeth; He shall maintain his cause in judgment. ⁶For he shall never be moved; The righteous shall be had in everlasting remembrance. ⁷He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: His heart is fixed, trusting in Jehovah. ⁸His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, Until he see his desire upon his adversaries. ⁹He hath dispersed, he hath given to the needy; His righteousness endureth for ever: His horn shall be exalted with honor. ¹⁰The wicked shall see it, and be grieved; He shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: The desire of the wicked shall perish.

Psalm 113

¹Praise ye Jehovah. Praise, O ye servants of Jehovah, Praise the name of Jehovah.

²Blessed be the name of Jehovah From this time forth and for evermore. ³From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same Jehovah's name is to be praised. ⁴Jehovah is high above all nations, And his glory above the heavens. ⁵Who is like unto Jehovah our God, That hath his seat on high, ⁶That humbleth himself to behold The things that are in heaven and in the earth? ⁷He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, And lifteth up the needy from the dunghill; ⁸That he may set him with princes, Even with the princes of his people. ⁹He maketh the barren woman to keep house, And to be a joyful mother of children. Praise ye Jehovah.

Psalm 114

¹When Israel went forth out of Egypt, The house of Jacob from a people of strange language;

²Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his dominion. ³The sea saw it, and fled; The Jordan was driven back. ⁴The mountains skipped like rams, The little hills like lambs. ⁵What aileth thee, O thou sea, that thou fleest? Thou Jordan, that thou turnest back? ⁶Ye mountains, that ye skip like rams; Ye little hills, like lambs? ⁷Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, At the presence of the God of Jacob, ⁸Who turned the rock into a pool of water, The flint into a fountain of waters.
