For if you desired sacrifice, I would have rendered it.

      In whole-burnt offerings you take no pleasure.

      17. Sacrifice for God is a contrite spirit.

      A broken and humbled heart you will not spurn, O God.

      18. Deal favorably, O Lord, with Zion

      according to your good pleasure;

      Let the walls of Jerusalem be built up.

      19. Then shall you be pleased with a sacrifice of righteousness,

      an offering and whole-burnt sacrifices,

      then shall they offer up calves upon your altar.

      Psalm 53

      1. Save me, O God, by your name,

      and judge me by your might.

      2. O God, hear my prayer;

      give ear to the words of my mouth.

      3. For strangers have risen up

      against me,

      and the mighty have sought my life;

      they have not set God before their eyes.

      4. For behold, God comes to my aid.

      The Lord is the protector of my life.

      5. The Lord will repay my enemies

      with evil.

      Utterly destroy them in your truth!

      6. Willingly I will offer you sacrifices,

      I will give thanks to your name O Lord, for it is good.

      7. For you have rescued me from all afflictions,

      and my eye has witnessed

      my enemies’ fate.

      Psalm 54

      1. Give ear, O God, to my prayer,

      and do not disregard my supplication.

      2. Attend to me and hearken to me,

      I was grieved in my meditation and troubled;

      3. because of an enemy’s voice and oppression of a sinner;

      because they brought iniquity against me, seething with rage.

      4. My heart was troubled within me,

      and the dread of death fell upon me.

      5. Fear and trembling gripped me,

      and darkness enshrouded me.

      6. And I said, “O that I had wings like those of a dove,

      that I might fly away and find rest.”

      7. Behold! I have fled far and away,

      and sought refuge in the wilderness.

      8. I waited on the one who would deliver me

      from distress of spirit and wild tempest.

      9. Overwhelm, O Lord, and divide

      their tongues,

      for I have seen iniquity and contradiction in the city.

      10. Day and night transgression keeps its rounds upon the walls;

      iniquity, sorrow and unrighteousness are in its midst,

      11. and usury and fraud have not departed from its streets.

      12. For if an enemy had reproached me,

      I would have endured it,

      and if one who hated me had spoken boastfully against me,

      I would have hid myself from him.

      13. But you, O like-minded soul, my guide, my intimate friend!

      14. Who in companionship did sweeten my meals!

      In the house of God, we used to walk in unanimity!

      15. Let death come upon them,

      and let them go down alive into Hades;

      because there was wickedness in their dwellings,

      even in the midst of them.

      16. I cried out to God,

      and the Lord hearkened to me.

      Evening, morning and noon I shall declare and proclaim,

      and the Lord shall hearken to my voice.

      Psalm 56

      1. Have mercy upon me, O God, be merciful to me,

      for my soul has trusted in you;

      and in the shadow of your wings

      I will hope,

      until this iniquity passes away.

      2. I will cry to God the Most High,

      to the God who has been kind to me . . .

      5. Be exalted above the heavens, O God,

      and let your glory be over

      all the earth . . .

      7. My heart, O God is ready,

      my heart is ready:

      I will sing, indeed, I will sing Psalms.

      8. Awake my glory;

      awake psaltery and harp:

      I will awake early.

      9. I will give thanks to you among the peoples, O Lord,

      I will sing to you in the midst

      of the nations.

      10. For your mercy has been magnified even to the heavens,

      and your truth exalted even to the clouds.

      O God,

      and let your glory be over all the earth!

      Psalm 60

      1. Hearken, O God, to my supplication,

      attend to my prayer.

      2. From the ends of the earth I have cried to you,

      when my heart was despondent, you lifted me up on a rock.

      3. You guided me because you were

      my hope,

      a tower of strength in the face

      of the enemy.

      4. I shall dwell in your tabernacle forever,

      I shall take shelter in the cover

      of your wings.

      5. For you, O God, have heard

      my prayers;

      you have granted an inheritance to those who fear your name.

      6. You will add days upon days to the king’s reign,

      and extend his years to generation after generation.

      7. He will continue forever in the presence of God.

      Who will seek out his mercy and truth?

      8. Thus I will sing to your name forever and ever,

      that I may, day after day, fulfill my vows.

      Psalm 62

      1. O God,
