  Speaker 1: Lord, do not rebuke me in your anger, or discipline
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: me in your wrath. Have mercy on me, Lord, for
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: I am faint. Yield me, Lord, for my bones are
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: in agony. My soul is in deep anguish. How long, Lord,
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: How long, turn Lord and deliver me? Save me? Because
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: of your unfailing love among the dead, no one proclaims
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: your name, who praises you from the grave. I am
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: worn out from my groaning all night long, I flood
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: my bed with weeping and drench my couch with tears.
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: My eyes grow weak with sorrow. They fail because of
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: all my foes. Away from me, all you who do evil.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: For the Lord has heard my weeping. The Lord has
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: heard my cry for mercy. The Lord accepts my prayer.
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: All my enemies will be overwhelmed with shame and anguish.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: They will turn back and suddenly be put to shame.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: Blessed is the one whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: are covered. Blessed is the one whose sin the Lord
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: does not count against them, and whose spirit is no deceit.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: When I kept silent, my bones wasted away through my
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: groaning all day long, for day and night, your hand
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: was heavy on me. My strength was sapped as in
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: the heat of summer. Then I acknowledged my sin to
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: you and did not cover up my iniquity. I said,
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: I will confess my transgressions to the Lord, and you
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: forgave the guilt of my sin. Therefore, let all the
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: faithful pray to you, while you may be found. Surely
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: the rising of the mighty waters will not reach them.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: You are my hiding place. You will protect me from
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance. I will
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: instruct you and teach you in the way you should go.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: I will counsel you with my loving eye on you.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Do not be like the horse or the mule, which
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: have no understanding, but must be controlled by bit and bridle,
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: or they will not come to you. Many are the
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: woes of the wicked, But the Lord's unfailing love surrounds
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: the one who trusts in him. Rejoice in the Lord,
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: and be glad you righteous, all you who are upright
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: in heart. Lord, do not rebuke me in your anger,
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: or discipline me in your wrath. Your arrows have pierced me,
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: and your hand has come down on me. Because of
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: your wrath. There is no health in my body. There
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: is no soundness in my bones because of my sin.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: My guilt has overwhelmed me like a burden too heavy
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: to bear. My wounds fester and are loathsome. Because of
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: my sinful folly. I am bowed down and brought very low.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: All day long I go about mourning. My back is
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: filled with searing pain. There is no health in my body.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: I am feeble and utterly crushed. I groan in anguish
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: of heart. All my longings lie open before you, Lord.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: My sighing is not hidden from you. My heart pans,
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: My strength fails me. Even the light has gone from
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: my eyes. My friends and companions avoid me because of
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: my wounds. My neighbors stay far away. Those who want
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: to kill me set their traps. Those who would harm
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: me talk of my ruin all day long. They scheme
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: and lie. I am like the death who cannot hear,
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: like the mute who cannot speak. I have become like
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: one who does not hear, whose mouth can offer no reply.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: Lord. I wait for you. You will answer, Lord, my God,
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: For I said, do not let them gloat or exalt
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: themselves over me when my feet slip, for I am
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: about to fall and my pain is ever with me.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: I conf profess my iniquity. I am troubled by my sin.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: Many have become my enemies without cause. Those who hate
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: me without reason are numerous, those who repay my good
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: with evil, large accusations against me. Though I seek only
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: to do what is good. Lord, do not forsake me.
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: Do not be far from me. My God, Come quickly
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: to help me, my Lord and my savior. I waited
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: patiently for the Lord. He turned to me and heard
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: my cry. He lifted me out of the slimy pit,
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: out of the mud and mire. He set my feet
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: of praise to our God. Many will see and fear
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: the Lord and put their trust in him. Blessed is
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: the one who trusts in the Lord, who does not
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: look to the proud, to those who turn aside to
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: false gods. Many, Lord, my God, are the wonders. You
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: have done the things you planned for us. None can
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: compare with you. Were I to speak and tell of
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: your deeds, they would be too many to declare sacrifice
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: and offering. You did not desire, But my ears, you
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: have opened burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not require.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: Then I said, here I am, I have come. It
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: is written about me in the scroll. I desire to
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: do your will, My God, Your law is within my heart.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: I proclaim your saving acts in the Great Assembly. I
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: do not seal my lips. Lord, as you know, I
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: do not hide your righteousness in my heart. I speak
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: of your faithfulness and your saving help. I do not
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: conceal your love and your faithfulness from the Great Assembly.
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: Do not withhold your mercy from me. Lord.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: May your love and faithfulness always protect me for troubles
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: without numbers around me. My sins have overtaken me, and
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: I cannot see. They are more than the hairs of
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: my head, and my heart fails within me. Be pleased
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: to save me. Lord, Come quickly, Lord to help me.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: May all who want to take my life be put
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: to shame and confusion. May all who desire my ruin
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: be turned back in disgrace. May those who say to
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: me aha ha ha be appalled at their own shame.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: But may all whose seek you rejoice and be glad
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: in you. May those who long for your saving help
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: always say the Lord is great. But as for me,
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: I am poor and needy. May the Lord think of me.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: You are my help and my deliverer. You are my God,
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: do not delay. Blessed are those who have regard for
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: the weak. The Lord delivers them in times of trouble.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: The Lord protects and preserves them. They are counted among
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: the blessed in the land. He does not give them
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: over to the desire of their foes. The Lord sustains
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: them on their sick bed and restores them from their
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: bed of illness. I said, have mercy on me, Lord,
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: heal me, for I have sinned against you. My enemies
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: say of me in malice, when will he die and
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: his name perish? When one of them comes to see me,
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: he speaks falsely while his heart gathers slander. Then he
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: goes out and spreads it around. All My enemies whisper
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: together against me. They imagine the worst for me, saying
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: a vile disease has afflicted him. He will never get
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: up from the place where he lies. Even my close friend,
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: some one I trusted, one who shared my bread, has
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: turned against me. But may you have mercy on me, Lord,
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: raise me up, that I may repay them. I know
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: that you are pleased with me, for my enemy does
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: not triumph over me because of my integrity. You uphold
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: me and set me in your presence for ever.
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: Praise be to.
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: The Lord, the God of Israel, from ever lasting to
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: ever lasting. Amen and Amen. Have mascy on me, o God,
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: according to your unfailing love, according to your great compassion.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: Blot out my transgressions. Wash away all my iniquity, and
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: cleanse me from my sin. For I know my transgressions,
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: and my sin is always before me against you. You
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: only have I sinned and done what is evil in
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: your sight. So you are right in your verdict and
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: justified when you judge. Surely I was sinful of birth,
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: sinful from the time my mother conceived me. Yet you
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: desired faithfulness even in the womb. You taught me wisdom
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: in that secret place. Cleanse me with hissop and I
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: will be clean. Wash me and I will be whiter
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: than snow. Let me hear joy and gladness. If the
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: bones you have crushed, rejoice. Hide your face from my sins,
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: and blot out all my iniquity. Create in me a
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: pure heart, o God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: Do not cast me from your presence or take your
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: holy spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: your salvation and grant me a willing spirit to sustain me.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: Then I will teach transgressors your ways so that sinners
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: will turn back to you. Deliver me from the guilt
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: of bloodshed. O, God, you who are God my savior,
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: and my tongue will sing of your righteousness. Open my lips, Lord,
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: and my mouth will declare your praise. You do not
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: delight in sacrifice, or I would bring it. You do
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: not take pleasure in burnt offerings my sacric If so,
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: God is a broken spirit, a broken and contrite heart,
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: you God will not despise. May it please you to
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: prosper zion to build up the walls of Jerusalem. Then
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: you will delight in the sacrifices of the righteous, in
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: burnt offerings offered whole. Then bulls will be offered on
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: your altar. Save me, o God, for the waters have
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: come up to my neck. I sink in the miry depths,
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: where there is no foothold. I have come into the
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: deep waters. The floods engulf me. I am worn out,
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: calling for help. My throat is parched, my eyes fail
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: looking for my God. Those who hate me without reason
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: outnumber the hairs of my head. Many of my enemies
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: without cause, those who seek to destroy me. I am
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: forced to restore what I did not steal. You, God
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: know my folly. My guilt is not hidden from you, Lord,
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: the Lord Almighty. May those who hope in you not
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: be disgraced because of me, God of Israel. May those
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: who seek you not be put to shame because of me.
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: For I endure scorn for your sake, and shame covers
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: my face. I am a foreigner to my own family,
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: a stranger to my own mother's children. For zeal of
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: your house consumes me, and the insults of those who insult.
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: You fall on me.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: When I weep and fast, I must endure scorn. When
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: I put on sackloth people make sport of me, those
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: who at the gate mock me, and I am the
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: song of the drunkards. But I pray to you, Lord,
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: in the time of your favor, in your great love
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: of God, answer me with your sure salvation. Rescue me
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: from the mire. Do not let me sink. Deliver me
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: from those who hate me, from the deep waters. Do
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: not let the flood waters engulf me, or the depths
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: swallow me up, or the pit close its mouth over me.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: Answer me, Lord, out of the goodness of your love,
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: in your great mercy, turn to me. Do not hide
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: your face from your servant. Answer me quickly, for I
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: am in trouble. Come near and rescue me. Deliver me
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: because of my foes. You know how I am scorned, disgraced,
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: and shamed. All my enemy before you, scorn has broken
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: my heart and has left me helpless. I looked for sympathy,
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: that there was none, for comforters, that I found none.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: They put gall in my food and gave me vinegar
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: for my thirst. May the table set before them become
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: a snare. May it become retribution and a trap. May
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: their eyes be darkened so they cannot see, and their
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: backs be bent forever. Pour out your wrath on them.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: Let your fierce anger overtake them. May their place be deserted.
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: Let there be no one to dwell in their tents.
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: For they persecute those you wound, and talk about the
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: pain of those you hurt. Charge them with crime upon crime.
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: Do not let them share in your salvation. May they
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: be blotted out of the book of life and not
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: be listed with the righteous. But as for me, afflicted
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: and in pain, may your salvation God protect me. I
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: will praise God's name and song and glorify him with thanksgiving.
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: This will please the Lord more than an ox, more
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: than a bull with its horns and hoofs. The poor
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: will see and be glad. You who seek God, May
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: your hearts live. The Lord hears the needy and does
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: not despise his captive people. Let heaven and earth praise him.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: The seas and all that move in them. For God
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: will save Zion and rebuild the cities of Judah. Then
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: people will settle there and possess it. The children of
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: his servants will inherit it, and those who love His
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: name will dwell there, O, God, The nations have invaded
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: your inheritance. They have defiled your holy temple. They have
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: reduced Jerusalem to rubble. They have left the dead bodies
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: of your servants as food for the birds of the sky,
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: the flesh of your own people for the animals of
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: the wild. They have poured out blood like water all
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: around Jerusalem, and there is no one to bury the dead.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: We are objects of contempt to our neighbors, have scorn
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: and derision to those around us. How long, Lord, will
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: you be angry forever? How long will your jealousy burn
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: like fire? Pour out your wrath on the nations that
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: do not acknowledge you, and the kingdoms that do not
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: call on your name, for they have devoured Jacob and
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: devastated his homeland. Do not hold against us the sins
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: of past generations. May your mercy come quickly to meet us,
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: for we are in desperate need. Help us, God, our savior,
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: for the glory of your name, Deliver us and forgive
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: our sins for your name's sake. Why should the nations
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: say where is their God? Before our eyes? Make known
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: among the nations that you avenge the outpoured blood of
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: your servants. May the groans of the prisoners come before
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: you with your strong arm, preserve those condemned to die.
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: Pay back into the lapse of our neighbors seven times
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: the contempt.
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: They have hurled at you. Lord.
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: Then we your people, the sheep of your pasture, will
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: praise you forever. From generation to generation, we will proclaim
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: your praise out of the depths to you, Lord, Lord,
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to my
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: cry for mercy. If you, Lord kept a record of sins, Lord,
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: who could stand? But with you there is forgiveness, so
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: that we can with reverence serve you. I wait for
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: the Lord, my whole being waits, and in his word
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: I put my hope. I wait for the Lord more
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: than watchmen wait for the morning, more than watchman wait
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: for the morning. Israel, put your hope in the Lord,
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: for with the Lord is unfailing love, and with him
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: his full redemption. He himself will redeem Israel from all
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: their sins. Lord, hear my prayer, listen to my cry
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: for mercy. When your faithfulness and righteousness come to my relief,
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: do not bring your servant into judgment, for no one
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: living is righteous before you. The enemy pursues me. He
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: crushes me to the ground. He makes me dwell in
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: the darkness like those long dead. So my spirit grows
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: faint within me. My heart within me is dismayed. I
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: remember the days of long ago. I meditate on all
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: your works and consider what your hands have done. I
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: spread out my hands to you. I thirst for you
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: like a parched land. Answer me quickly, Lord, my spirit fails.
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: Do not hide your face from me, or I will
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: be like those who go down to the pit. Let
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: the morning Bring me word of your unfailing love, for
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: I have put my trust in you. Show me the
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: way I should go, for to you I intrust my life.
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: Rescue me from my enemy's lord, for I hide myself
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: in you. Teach me to do your will, for you
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: are my God. May your good spirit lead me on
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: level ground. For your name's sake, Lord, preserve my life
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: in your righteousness. Bring me out of trouble. In your
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: unfailing love. Silence my enemies, Destroy all my foes, for
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: I am your servant.
