29. But when you turn away your face,
they shall be troubled.
When you take away their breath,
they shall perish and return
to their dust.
30. You shall send forth your Spirit,
and they shall be created;
and you shall renew the face
of the earth.
31. Let the glory of the Lord be forever;
the Lord shall take pleasure
in his works.
32. He gazes upon the earth and makes it tremble;
He touches the mountains,
and they smoke.
33. I will sing to the Lord all my life;
I will sing praise to my God as long as I exist.
34. May my conversation be
pleasing to him,
and so I shall be glad in the Lord.
Psalm 107
1. My heart is ready, O God,
my heart is ready,
I will chant and sing psalms in my glory.
2. Awake psaltery and harp,
I will wake up early in the morning.
3. I will publicly give thanks to you,
O Lord,
I will sing praises to you among
the nations.
4. For your mercy is great above
the heavens,
and your truth soars above the clouds.
5. Be exalted above the heavens, O God,
and let your glory shine upon
all the earth.
6. So that your beloved ones
may be delivered,
save with your right hand
and hearken to me.
Psalm 109
1. The Lord said to my Lord:
Sit on my right,
until I make your enemies
your footstool.
2. The Lord will send out from Zion
a rod of power;
take up your rule in the midst
of your enemies.
3. With you is dominion in the day
of your power,
in the splendors of your holy ones.
From the womb before
the morning star,
I have begotten you.
4. The Lord swore an oath,
and will not take it back:
You are a priest forever,
according to the order of Melchizedek.
5. The Lord at your right hand
has dashed in pieces
kings in the day of his wrath.
6. He shall judge among the nations,
multiply the corpses,
crush the heads of many on the earth.
7. He shall drink from the brook
by the wayside,
therefore, he will lift up his head.
Psalm 112
1. Praise the Lord, you servants;
praise the name of the Lord!
2. Let the name of the Lord be blessed,
henceforth and forever more.
3. From the rising of the sun
to its setting,
let the name of the Lord be praised.
4. The Lord is exalted above
all the nations,
above the heavens his glory.
5. Who is like the Lord our God,
who dwells on high,
6. overseeing the things below,
in heaven and on earth,
7. who lifts up the poor from the earth,
and raises the needy from the dunghill,
8. to seat him with royalty,
even with the rulers of his people,
9. who settles the barren woman
in a home,
making her a joyful mother of children?
Psalm 113A
1. At the departure of Israel from Egypt,
of the house of Jacob from
a barbarous people,
2. Judah became his holy claim,
and Israel his dominion.
3. The sea had sight and took flight,
the Jordan turned back on its course.
4. The mountains skipped like rams,
the hills like yearling lambs.
5. What did you see O sea,
that you took flight?
6. And you, O Jordan,
that you turned back in fright?
7. You mountains that you skipped
like rams?
And you hills like yearling lambs?
8. At the presence of the Lord,
the earth trembled,
at the presence of the God of Jacob,
9. who turned the rock into pools
of water,
and the flinty rock into watery fountains.
Psalm 113B
9. Not to us, O Lord, not to us,
but to your name give the glory,
because of your mercy and truth;
10. lest the nations should say:
Where is their God?
11. But our God dwells in heaven,
and on earth;
doing whatsoever he wills.
12. The idols of the nations,
are silver and gold,
the work of human hands.
13. They have a mouth
but cannot speak;
they have eyes, but cannot see.
