Psalm 21
Verse | King James Version | Proposed Conservative Translation | Analysis |
---|---|---|---|
1 | The king shall joy in thy strength, O LORD; and in thy salvation how greatly shall he rejoice! | ||
2 | Thou hast given him his heart's desire, and hast not withholden the request of his lips. Selah. | ||
3 | For thou preventest him with the blessings of goodness: thou settest a crown of pure gold on his head. | ||
4 | He asked life of thee, and thou gavest it him, even length of days for ever and ever. | ||
5 | His glory is great in thy salvation: honour and majesty hast thou laid upon him. | ||
6 | For thou hast made him most blessed for ever: thou hast made him exceeding glad with thy countenance. | ||
7 | For the king trusteth in the LORD, and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved. | ||
8 | Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies: thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee. | ||
9 | Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven in the time of thine anger: the LORD shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them. | ||
10 | Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men. | ||
11 | For they intended evil against thee: they imagined a mischievous device, which they are not able to perform. | ||
12 | Therefore shalt thou make them turn their back, when thou shalt make ready thine arrows upon thy strings against the face of them. | ||
13 | Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength: so will we sing and praise thy power. |
Psalm 22
Verse | King James Version | Proposed Conservative Translation | Analysis |
---|---|---|---|
1 | My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring? | ||
2 | O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent. | ||
3 | But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel. | ||
4 | Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them. | ||
5 | They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded. | ||
6 | But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people. | ||
7 | All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head saying, | ||
8 | He trusted on the LORD that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him. | ||
9 | But thou art he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me hope when I was upon my mother's breasts. | ||
10 | I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother's belly. | ||
11 | Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help. | ||
12 | Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round. | ||
13 | They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion. | ||
14 | I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels. | ||
15 | My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death. | ||
16 | For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet. | ||
17 | I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me. | ||
18 | They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture. | ||
19 | But be not thou far from me, O LORD: O my strength, haste thee to help me. | ||
20 | Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog. | Deliver my soul from the sword; my life from the grip of homosexuals. | The Hebrew and Greek terms for "homosexuals" was "dogs", and translating its into "dogs" in English would change its intended meaning. See also Deuteronomy 23:18, Philippians 3:2, and Revelation 22:15.
|
21 | Save me from the lion's mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns. | ||
22 | I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee. | ||
23 | Ye that fear the LORD, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel. | ||
24 | For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard. | ||
25 | My praise shall be of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him. | ||
26 | The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the LORD that seek him: your heart shall live for ever. | ||
27 | All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee. | ||
28 | For the kingdom is the LORD's: and he is the governor among the nations. | ||
29 | All they that be fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul. | ||
30 | A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation. | ||
31 | They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done this. |

3 | He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. | He restores my soul, he leads me down paths of righteousness for his name's sake. | |
4 | Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. | even though i walk through the valley of the shadow of death, i fear no evil because you are with me, your rod and your staff comfort me. | |
5 | Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. | you prepare a table for me in the presence of my enemies, you anoint my head with oil, my cup overflows. | |
6 | Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever. | goodness and mercy shall surely follow me all the days of my life, and i will be in the house of the LORD for ever. |

1 | Unto thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul. | ||
2 | O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me. | ||
3 | Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause. | ||
4 | Shew me thy ways, O LORD; teach me thy paths. | ||
5 | Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day. | ||
6 | Remember, O LORD, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they have been ever of old. | ||
7 | Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to thy mercy remember thou me for thy goodness' sake, O LORD. | ||
8 | Good and upright is the LORD: therefore will he teach sinners in the way. | ||
9 | The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way. | ||
10 | All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies. | ||
11 | For thy name's sake, O LORD, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great. | ||
12 | What man is he that feareth the LORD? him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose. | ||
13 | His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth. | ||
14 | The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant. | ||
15 | Mine eyes are ever toward the LORD; for he shall pluck my feet out of the net. | ||
16 | Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; for I am desolate and afflicted. | ||
17 | The troubles of my heart are enlarged: O bring thou me out of my distresses. | ||
18 | Look upon mine affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins. | ||
19 | Consider mine enemies; for they are many; and they hate me with cruel hatred. | ||
20 | O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in thee. | ||

3 | For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth. | ||
4 | I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers. | ||
5 | I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked. | ||

12 | My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the LORD. |
Psalm 27
Verse | King James Version | Proposed Conservative Translation | Analysis |
---|---|---|---|
1 | The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? | ||
2 | When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell. | ||
3 | Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident. | ||
4 | One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to inquire in his temple. | ||
5 | For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock. | ||
6 | And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD. | ||
7 | Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me. | ||
8 | When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek. | ||
9 | Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation. | ||
10 | When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up. | ||
11 | Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies. | ||
12 | Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty. | ||
13 | I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. | ||
14 | Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD. |
Psalm 28
Verse | King James Version | Proposed Conservative Translation | Analysis |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Unto thee will I cry, O LORD my rock; be not silent to me: lest, if thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down into the pit. | ||
2 | Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle. | ||
3 | Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, which speak peace to their neighbours, but mischief is in their hearts. | ||
4 | Give them according to their deeds, and according to the wickedness of their endeavours: give them after the work of their hands; render to them their desert. | ||
5 | Because they regard not the works of the LORD, nor the operation of his hands, he shall destroy them, and not build them up. | ||
6 | Blessed be the LORD, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications. | ||
7 | The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him. | ||
8 | The LORD is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed. | ||
9 | Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: feed them also, and lift them up for ever. |

4 | The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is full of majesty. | ||
5 | The voice of the LORD breaketh the cedars; yea, the LORD breaketh the cedars of Lebanon. | ||
6 | He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn. | ||
7 | The voice of the LORD divideth the flames of fire. | ||
8 | The voice of the LORD shaketh the wilderness; the LORD shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh. | ||
9 | The voice of the LORD maketh the hinds to calve, and discovereth the forests: and in his temple doth every one speak of his glory. | ||
10 | The LORD sitteth upon the flood; yea, the LORD sitteth King for ever. | ||
11 | The LORD will give strength unto his people; the LORD will bless his people with peace. |
Psalm 30
Verse | King James Version | Proposed Conservative Translation | Analysis |
---|---|---|---|
1 | I will extol thee, O LORD; for thou hast lifted me up, and hast not made my foes to rejoice over me. | ||
2 | O LORD my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me. | ||
3 | O LORD, thou hast brought up my soul from the grave: thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit. | ||
4 | Sing unto the LORD, O ye saints of his, and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness. | ||
5 | For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning. | ||
6 | And in my prosperity I said, I shall never be moved. | ||
7 | LORD, by thy favour thou hast made my mountain to stand strong: thou didst hide thy face, and I was troubled. | ||
8 | I cried to thee, O LORD; and unto the LORD I made supplication. | ||
9 | What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth? | ||
10 | Hear, O LORD, and have mercy upon me: LORD, be thou my helper. | ||
11 | Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness; | ||
12 | To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever. |
