Open saved chapters

A Psalm for David, of Aggæus and Zacharias. I will give thee thanks, O Lord, with my whole heart; and I will sing psalms to thee before the angels; for thou hast heard all the words of my mouth.

I will worship toward thy holy temple, and give thanks to thy name, on account of thy mercy and thy truth; for thou hast magnified thy holy name above every thing.

In whatsoever day I shall call upon thee, hear me speedily; thou shalt abundantly provide me with thy power in my soul.

Let all the kings of the earth, O Lord, give thanks unto thee; for they have heard all the words of thy mouth.

And let them sing in the ways of the Lord; for great is the glory of the Lord.

For the Lord is high, and [yet] regards the lowly; and he knows high things from afar off.

Though I should walk in the midst of affliction, thou wilt me; thou hast stretched forth thine hands against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand has saved me.

O Lord, thou shalt [them] on my behalf: thy mercy, O Lord, [endures] for ever: overlook not the works of thine hands.

About this reading layout

Reading paragraphs add editorial spacing between unchanged verses. They do not reconstruct the original manuscript’s paragraphs. Verse numbers, supplied line breaks and citation links are retained. Books such as Psalms and Proverbs keep verses on separate lines; original-language and comparison views stay aligned by verse. Choose One verse per line in Reading settings whenever you prefer.
