Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I [myself] will awake early.
I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing unto thee among the nations.
For thy mercy [is] great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds.
Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: [let] thy glory [be] above all the earth.
To the chief Musician, Altaschith, Michtam of David. Do ye indeed speak righteousness, O congregation? do ye judge uprightly, O ye sons of men?
Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh the violence of your hands in the earth.
The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they be born, speaking lies.
Their poison [is] like the poison of a serpent: [they are] like the deaf adder [that] stoppeth her ear;
Which will not hearken to the voice of charmers, charming never so wisely.
Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth: break out the great teeth of the young lions, O LORD.
