² The one whose walk is blameless,^(D)
    who does what is righteous,
    who speaks the truth^(E) from their heart;
³ whose tongue utters no slander,^(F)
    who does no wrong to a neighbor,
    and casts no slur on others;
⁴ who despises a vile person
    but honors^(G) those who fear the Lord;
who keeps an oath^(H) even when it hurts,
    and does not change their mind;
⁵ who lends money to the poor without interest;^(I)
    who does not accept a bribe^(J) against the innocent.

Whoever does these things
    will never be shaken.^(K)

² I say to the Lord, “You are my Lord;^(C)
    apart from you I have no good thing.”^(D)
3 I say of the holy people^(E) who are in the land,^(F)
    “They are the noble ones in whom is all my delight.”
⁴ Those who run after other gods^(G) will suffer^(H) more and more.
    I will not pour out libations of blood to such gods
    or take up their names^(I) on my lips.

⁵ Lord, you alone are my portion^(J) and my cup;^(K)
    you make my lot^(L) secure.
⁶ The boundary lines^(M) have fallen for me in pleasant places;

    even at night^(P) my heart instructs me.
⁸ I keep my eyes always on the Lord.
    With him at my right hand,^(Q) I will not be shaken.^(R)

⁹ Therefore my heart is glad^(S) and my tongue rejoices;
    my body also will rest secure,^(T)
10 because you will not abandon me to the realm of the dead,^(U)
    nor will you let your faithful^[b] one^(V) see decay.^(W)
11 You make known to me the path of life;^(X)
    you will fill me with joy in your presence,^(Y)
    with eternal pleasures^(Z) at your right hand.^(AA)

² You have granted him his heart’s desire^(C)
    and have not withheld the request of his lips.^[b]
3 You came to greet him with rich blessings
    and placed a crown of pure gold^(D) on his head.^(E)
4 He asked you for life, and you gave it to him—
    length of days, for ever and ever.^(F)
5 Through the victories^(G) you gave, his glory is great;
    you have bestowed on him splendor and majesty.^(H)
6 Surely you have granted him unending blessings
    and made him glad with the joy^(I) of your presence.^(J)
7 For the king trusts in the Lord;^(K)
    through the unfailing love^(L) of the Most High^(M)
    he will not be shaken.^(N)

⁸ Your hand will lay hold^(O) on all your enemies;
    your right hand will seize your foes.
⁹ When you appear for battle,
    you will burn them up as in a blazing furnace.
The Lord will swallow them up in his wrath,
    and his fire will consume them.^(P)
10 You will destroy their descendants from the earth,
    their posterity from mankind.^(Q)
11 Though they plot evil^(R) against you
    and devise wicked schemes,^(S) they cannot succeed.
¹² You will make them turn their backs^(T)
    when you aim at them with drawn bow.

¹³ Be exalted^(U) in your strength, Lord;^(V)
    we will sing and praise your might.
