23 “Oh, that my words were recorded,
that they were written on a scroll,(A)
24 that they were inscribed with an iron tool(B) on[a] lead,
or engraved in rock forever!(C)
25 I know that my redeemer[b](D) lives,(E)
and that in the end he will stand on the earth.[c]
26 And after my skin has been destroyed,
yet[d] in[e] my flesh I will see God;(F)
27 I myself will see him
with my own eyes(G)—I, and not another.
How my heart yearns(H) within me!

23 Yet if there is an angel at their side,
a messenger,(A) one out of a thousand,
sent to tell them how to be upright,(B)
24 and he is gracious to that person and says to God,
‘Spare them from going down to the pit;(C)
I have found a ransom for them(D)—
25 let their flesh be renewed(E) like a child’s;
let them be restored as in the days of their youth’(F)—
26 then that person can pray to God and find favor with him,(G)
they will see God’s face and shout for joy;(H)
he will restore them to full well-being.(I)
27 And they will go to others and say,
‘I have sinned,(J) I have perverted what is right,(K)
but I did not get what I deserved.(L)
28 God has delivered(M) me from going down to the pit,(N)
and I shall live to enjoy the light of life.’(O)

Hannah’s Prayer
2 Then Hannah prayed and said:(A)
“My heart rejoices(B) in the Lord;
in the Lord my horn[a](C) is lifted high.
My mouth boasts(D) over my enemies,(E)
for I delight in your deliverance.
2 “There is no one holy(F) like(G) the Lord;
there is no one besides you;
there is no Rock(H) like our God.
3 “Do not keep talking so proudly
or let your mouth speak such arrogance,(I)
for the Lord is a God who knows,(J)
and by him deeds(K) are weighed.(L)
4 “The bows of the warriors are broken,(M)
but those who stumbled are armed with strength.(N)
5 Those who were full hire themselves out for food,
but those who were hungry(O) are hungry no more.
She who was barren(P) has borne seven children,
but she who has had many sons pines away.
6 “The Lord brings death and makes alive;(Q)
he brings down to the grave and raises up.(R)
7 The Lord sends poverty and wealth;(S)
he humbles and he exalts.(T)
8 He raises(U) the poor(V) from the dust(W)
and lifts the needy(X) from the ash heap;
he seats them with princes
and has them inherit a throne of honor.(Y)
“For the foundations(Z) of the earth are the Lord’s;
on them he has set the world.
9 He will guard the feet(AA) of his faithful servants,(AB)
but the wicked will be silenced in the place of darkness.(AC)

1 Why do the nations conspire[a]
and the peoples plot(A) in vain?
2 The kings(B) of the earth rise up
and the rulers band together
against the Lord and against his anointed,(C) saying,
3 “Let us break their chains(D)

4 The One enthroned(F) in heaven laughs;(G)
the Lord scoffs at them.
5 He rebukes them in his anger(H)
and terrifies them in his wrath,(I) saying,
6 “I have installed my king(J)
on Zion,(K) my holy mountain.(L)”
7 I will proclaim the Lord’s decree:
He said to me, “You are my son;(M)
today I have become your father.(N)
8 Ask me,
and I will make the nations(O) your inheritance,(P)

9 You will break them with a rod of iron[b];(R)
you will dash them to pieces(S) like pottery.(T)”
10 Therefore, you kings, be wise;(U)
be warned, you rulers(V) of the earth.
11 Serve the Lord with fear(W)

Psalm 8[a]
For the director of music. According to gittith.[b] A psalm of David.
1 Lord, our Lord,
how majestic is your name(A) in all the earth!
You have set your glory(B)
in the heavens.(C)
2 Through the praise of children and infants
you have established a stronghold(D) against your enemies,
to silence the foe(E) and the avenger.
3 When I consider your heavens,(F)
the work of your fingers,(G)
the moon and the stars,(H)
which you have set in place,
4 what is mankind that you are mindful of them,
human beings that you care for them?[c](I)
5 You have made them[d] a little lower than the angels[e](J)
and crowned them[f] with glory and honor.(K)
6 You made them rulers(L) over the works of your hands;(M)
you put everything under their[g] feet:(N)
7 all flocks and herds,(O)
and the animals of the wild,(P)
8 the birds in the sky,
and the fish in the sea,(Q)
all that swim the paths of the seas.
9 Lord, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!(R)
Psalm 9[h][i]
For the director of music. To the tune of “The Death of the Son.” A psalm of David.
1 I will give thanks to you, Lord, with all my heart;(S)
I will tell of all your wonderful deeds.(T)
2 I will be glad and rejoice(U) in you;
I will sing the praises(V) of your name,(W) O Most High.
3 My enemies turn back;
they stumble and perish before you.
4 For you have upheld my right(X) and my cause,(Y)
sitting enthroned(Z) as the righteous judge.(AA)
5 You have rebuked the nations(AB) and destroyed the wicked;
you have blotted out their name(AC) for ever and ever.
6 Endless ruin has overtaken my enemies,
you have uprooted their cities;(AD)
even the memory of them(AE) has perished.
7 The Lord reigns forever;(AF)
he has established his throne(AG) for judgment.
8 He rules the world in righteousness(AH)
and judges the peoples with equity.(AI)
9 The Lord is a refuge(AJ) for the oppressed,(AK)
a stronghold in times of trouble.(AL)
10 Those who know your name(AM) trust in you,
for you, Lord, have never forsaken(AN) those who seek you.(AO)
11 Sing the praises(AP) of the Lord, enthroned in Zion;(AQ)
proclaim among the nations(AR) what he has done.(AS)
12 For he who avenges blood(AT) remembers;
he does not ignore the cries of the afflicted.(AU)
13 Lord, see how my enemies(AV) persecute me!
Have mercy(AW) and lift me up from the gates of death,(AX)
14 that I may declare your praises(AY)
in the gates of Daughter Zion,(AZ)
and there rejoice in your salvation.(BA)
15 The nations have fallen into the pit they have dug;(BB)
their feet are caught in the net they have hidden.(BC)
16 The Lord is known by his acts of justice;
the wicked are ensnared by the work of their hands.[j](BD)
17 The wicked go down to the realm of the dead,(BE)
all the nations that forget God.(BF)
18 But God will never forget the needy;
the hope(BG) of the afflicted(BH) will never perish.
19 Arise,(BI) Lord, do not let mortals triumph;(BJ)
let the nations be judged(BK) in your presence.
20 Strike them with terror,(BL) Lord;
let the nations know they are only mortal.(BM)
Psalm 10[k]
2 In his arrogance the wicked man hunts down the weak,(BP)
who are caught in the schemes he devises.
3 He boasts(BQ) about the cravings of his heart;
he blesses the greedy and reviles the Lord.(BR)
4 In his pride the wicked man does not seek him;
in all his thoughts there is no room for God.(BS)
5 His ways are always prosperous;
your laws are rejected by[l] him;
he sneers at all his enemies.
6 He says to himself, “Nothing will ever shake me.”
He swears, “No one will ever do me harm.”(BT)
7 His mouth is full(BU) of lies and threats;(BV)
trouble and evil are under his tongue.(BW)
8 He lies in wait(BX) near the villages;
from ambush he murders the innocent.(BY)
His eyes watch in secret for his victims;
9 like a lion in cover he lies in wait.
He lies in wait to catch the helpless;(BZ)
he catches the helpless and drags them off in his net.(CA)
10 His victims are crushed,(CB) they collapse;
they fall under his strength.
11 He says to himself, “God will never notice;(CC)
he covers his face and never sees.”(CD)
12 Arise,(CE) Lord! Lift up your hand,(CF) O God.
Do not forget the helpless.(CG)
13 Why does the wicked man revile God?(CH)
Why does he say to himself,
“He won’t call me to account”?(CI)
14 But you, God, see the trouble(CJ) of the afflicted;
you consider their grief and take it in hand.
The victims commit themselves to you;(CK)
you are the helper(CL) of the fatherless.
15 Break the arm of the wicked man;(CM)
call the evildoer to account for his wickedness
that would not otherwise be found out.
16 The Lord is King for ever and ever;(CN)
the nations(CO) will perish from his land.
17 You, Lord, hear the desire of the afflicted;(CP)
you encourage them, and you listen to their cry,(CQ)
18 defending the fatherless(CR) and the oppressed,(CS)
so that mere earthly mortals
will never again strike terror.
Psalm 11
For the director of music. Of David.
1 In the Lord I take refuge.(CT)
How then can you say to me:
“Flee(CU) like a bird to your mountain.(CV)
2 For look, the wicked bend their bows;(CW)
they set their arrows(CX) against the strings
to shoot from the shadows(CY)
at the upright in heart.(CZ)
3 When the foundations(DA) are being destroyed,
what can the righteous do?”
4 The Lord is in his holy temple;(DB)
the Lord is on his heavenly throne.(DC)
He observes everyone on earth;(DD)
his eyes examine(DE) them.
5 The Lord examines the righteous,(DF)
but the wicked, those who love violence,
he hates with a passion.(DG)
6 On the wicked he will rain
fiery coals and burning sulfur;(DH)
a scorching wind(DI) will be their lot.

Psalm 89[a]
A maskil[b] of Ethan the Ezrahite.
1 I will sing(A) of the Lord’s great love forever;
with my mouth I will make your faithfulness known(B)
through all generations.
2 I will declare that your love stands firm forever,
that you have established your faithfulness in heaven itself.(C)
3 You said, “I have made a covenant with my chosen one,
I have sworn to David my servant,
4 ‘I will establish your line forever
and make your throne firm through all generations.’”[c](D)
5 The heavens(E) praise your wonders, Lord,
your faithfulness too, in the assembly(F) of the holy ones.
6 For who in the skies above can compare with the Lord?
Who is like the Lord among the heavenly beings?(G)
7 In the council(H) of the holy ones(I) God is greatly feared;
he is more awesome than all who surround him.(J)
8 Who is like you,(K) Lord God Almighty?(L)
You, Lord, are mighty, and your faithfulness surrounds you.
9 You rule over the surging sea;
when its waves mount up, you still them.(M)
10 You crushed Rahab(N) like one of the slain;
with your strong arm you scattered(O) your enemies.
11 The heavens are yours,(P) and yours also the earth;(Q)
you founded the world and all that is in it.(R)
12 You created the north and the south;
Tabor(S) and Hermon(T) sing for joy(U) at your name.
13 Your arm is endowed with power;
your hand is strong, your right hand exalted.(V)
14 Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne;(W)
love and faithfulness go before you.(X)
15 Blessed are those who have learned to acclaim you,
who walk(Y) in the light(Z) of your presence, Lord.
16 They rejoice in your name(AA) all day long;
they celebrate your righteousness.
17 For you are their glory and strength,(AB)
and by your favor you exalt our horn.[d](AC)
18 Indeed, our shield[e](AD) belongs to the Lord,
our king(AE) to the Holy One of Israel.
19 Once you spoke in a vision,
to your faithful people you said:
“I have bestowed strength on a warrior;
I have raised up a young man from among the people.
20 I have found David(AF) my servant;(AG)
with my sacred oil(AH) I have anointed(AI) him.
21 My hand will sustain him;
surely my arm will strengthen him.(AJ)
22 The enemy will not get the better of him;(AK)
the wicked will not oppress(AL) him.
23 I will crush his foes before him(AM)
and strike down his adversaries.(AN)
24 My faithful love will be with him,(AO)
and through my name his horn[f] will be exalted.
25 I will set his hand over the sea,
his right hand over the rivers.(AP)
26 He will call out to me, ‘You are my Father,(AQ)
my God, the Rock(AR) my Savior.’(AS)
27 And I will appoint him to be my firstborn,(AT)
the most exalted(AU) of the kings(AV) of the earth.
28 I will maintain my love to him forever,
and my covenant with him will never fail.(AW)
29 I will establish his line forever,
his throne as long as the heavens endure.(AX)
30 “If his sons forsake my law
and do not follow my statutes,
31 if they violate my decrees
and fail to keep my commands,
32 I will punish their sin with the rod,
their iniquity with flogging;(AY)
33 but I will not take my love from him,(AZ)
nor will I ever betray my faithfulness.
34 I will not violate my covenant
or alter what my lips have uttered.(BA)
35 Once for all, I have sworn by my holiness—
and I will not lie to David—
36 that his line will continue forever
and his throne endure before me like the sun;(BB)
37 it will be established forever like the moon,
the faithful witness in the sky.”(BC)
38 But you have rejected,(BD) you have spurned,
you have been very angry with your anointed one.
39 You have renounced the covenant with your servant
and have defiled his crown in the dust.(BE)
40 You have broken through all his walls(BF)
and reduced his strongholds(BG) to ruins.
41 All who pass by have plundered(BH) him;
he has become the scorn of his neighbors.(BI)
42 You have exalted the right hand of his foes;
you have made all his enemies rejoice.(BJ)
43 Indeed, you have turned back the edge of his sword
and have not supported him in battle.(BK)
44 You have put an end to his splendor
and cast his throne to the ground.
45 You have cut short(BL) the days of his youth;
you have covered him with a mantle of shame.(BM)
46 How long, Lord? Will you hide yourself forever?
How long will your wrath burn like fire?(BN)
47 Remember how fleeting is my life.(BO)
For what futility you have created all humanity!
48 Who can live and not see death,
or who can escape the power of the grave?(BP)
49 Lord, where is your former great love,
which in your faithfulness you swore to David?
50 Remember, Lord, how your servant has[g] been mocked,(BQ)
how I bear in my heart the taunts of all the nations,
51 the taunts with which your enemies, Lord, have mocked,
with which they have mocked every step of your anointed one.(BR)
52 Praise be to the Lord forever!
Amen and Amen.(BS)
