My strength is gone, gone like water spilled on the ground. All my bones are out of joint; my heart is like melted wax.

I know that I will live to see the LORD's goodness in this present life.

I am worn out, LORD, waiting for you to save me; I place my trust in your word.

I am as useless as a discarded wineskin; yet I have not forgotten your commands.

Think of what he went through; how he put up with so much hatred from sinners! So do not let yourselves become discouraged and give up.

David was now in great trouble, because his men were all very bitter about losing their children, and they were threatening to stone him; but the LORD his God gave him courage.

Some trust in their war chariots and others in their horses, but we trust in the power of the LORD our God.

Why am I so sad? Why am I so troubled? I will put my hope in God, and once again I will praise him, my savior and my God.

Why am I so sad? Why am I so troubled? I will put my hope in God, and once again I will praise him, my savior and my God.

Why am I so sad? Why am I so troubled? I will put my hope in God, and once again I will praise him, my savior and my God.

Then I said, "What hurts me most is this--- that God is no longer powerful."

I will remember your great deeds, LORD; I will recall the wonders you did in the past.

I remember the days gone by; I think about all that you have done, I bring to mind all your deeds.

All of you that honor the LORD and obey the words of his servant, the path you walk may be dark indeed, but trust in the LORD, rely on your God.

Yet hope returns when I remember this one thing:

Fresh as the morning, as sure as the sunrise.

The LORD is good to everyone who trusts in him,

We felt that the death sentence had been passed on us. But this happened so that we should rely, not on ourselves, but only on God, who raises the dead.

From such terrible dangers of death he saved us, and will save us; and we have placed our hope in him that he will save us again,

The priests and the Levites asked the LORD's blessing on the people. In his home in heaven God heard their prayers and accepted them.

In my trouble I called to the LORD; I called to my God for help. In his temple he heard my voice; he listened to my cry for help.

I thought I had been banished from your presence and would never see your holy Temple again.

The LORD is in his holy temple; he has his throne in heaven. He watches people everywhere and knows what they are doing.

Happy are those whom you choose, whom you bring to live in your sanctuary. We shall be satisfied with the good things of your house, the blessings of your sacred Temple.

Hear this, all you nations; listen to this, all who live on earth! The Sovereign LORD will testify against you. Listen! He speaks from his heavenly temple.

The LORD is in his holy Temple; let everyone on earth be silent in his presence.
