Peshitta (Lamsa, 1933)
Pes(Lam)
1[No verse] [1]I WILL praise thee, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will show forth all thy marvelous works.
2[No verse] [2]I will be glad and rejoice in thee and I will sing praise to thy name, O thou most High.
3[No verse] [3]When mine enemies are beaten back, they shall stumble and perish before thy presence.
4[No verse] [4]For thou hast maintained my right and my cause; thou hast sat on the throne, O thou righteous judge.
5[No verse] [5]Thou hast rebuked the Gentiles and thou hast destroyed the wicked; thou hast blotted out their name for ever and ever.
6[No verse] [6]My enemies have been annihilated by the sword for ever; and thou hast destroyed the villages and their very memory hath perished.
7[No verse] [7]But the LORD shall endure for ever; he has prepared his throne for judgment.
8[No verse] [8]And he shall judge the world in righteousness and the people in uprightness.
9[No verse] [9]The LORD also will be a refuge for the poor, a refuge in times of trouble.
10[No verse] [10]And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee; for thou hast not forsaken them that seek thee, O LORD.
11[No verse] [11]Sing praises to the LORD, who dwells in Zion; declare among the people his skillful doings;
12[No verse] [12]For he has remembered to avenge their blood; he forgets not the cry of the poor.
13[No verse] [13]Have mercy upon me, O LORD, and consider my trouble which I suffer of them that hate me, O thou that removest me away from the gates of death,
14[No verse] [14]That I may declare all thy praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion; I will rejoice in thy salvation.
15[No verse] [15]The Gentiles are sunk down in the pit that they made; and their foot is caught in the net which they hid.
16[No verse] [16]The LORD makes known the judgment which he executes; the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands.
17[No verse] [17]The wicked shall be turned into Sheol, and all the peoples that forsake God.
18[No verse] [18]For the poor shall not always be forgotten; and the hope of the poor shall not perish forever.
19[No verse] [19]Arise, O LORD; let not man prevail; let the Gentiles be judged in thy sight.
20[No verse] [20]Appoint for them a lawgiver, that the Gentiles may know themselves to be but men.
