Lord, remember David and all his self- denial.

Lord, remember David and all the times he didn’t do what he wanted.

Remember, O Lord, in David’s favor, all the hardships he endured,

Lord, remember David and all that he suffered.

LORD, remember David and all the hardships he endured,

Remember, Lord, in David’s behalf, All his affliction;

Lord, remember David And all his afflictions;

Lord, remember David and all the hardships he endured,

A Song of degrees. LORD, remember David,[ and] all his afflictions:

O LORD, for David’s sake remember all his strenuous effort,

Yahweh, remember David and all his affliction,

I will lift up mine eyes unto the mountains: From whence shall my help come?

In my distress I cried unto Jehovah, And he answered me.

And God remembered Noah, and all the beasts, and all the cattle that were with him in the ark: and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters assuaged;

When Jehovah brought back those that returned to Zion, We were like unto them that dream.

Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth up, Let Israel now say,

Unto thee do I lift up mine eyes, O thou that sittest in the heavens.

Except Jehovah build the house, They labor in vain that build it: Except Jehovah keep the city, The watchman waketh but in vain.

Blessed is every one that feareth Jehovah, That walketh in his ways.

If it had not been Jehovah who was on our side, Let Israel now say,

Remember, O Jehovah, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindness; For they have been ever of old.Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: According to thy lovingkindness remember thou me, For thy goodness’ sake, O Jehovah.

They that trust in Jehovah Are as mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abideth for ever.

And it came to pass after this, that Absalom prepared him a chariot and horses, and fifty men to run before him.And Absalom rose up early, and stood beside the way of the gate: and it was so, that, when any man had a suit which should come to the king for judgment, then Absalom called unto him, and said, Of what city art thou? And he said, Thy servant is of one of the tribes of Israel.And Absalom said unto him, See, thy matters are good and right; but there is no man deputed of the king to hear thee.Absalom said moreover, Oh that I were made judge in the land, that every man who hath any suit or cause might come unto me, and I would do him justice!And it was so, that, when any man came nigh to do him obeisance, he put forth his hand, and took hold of him, and kissed him.And on this manner did Absalom to all Israel that came to the king for judgment: so Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel.And it came to pass at the end of forty years, that Absalom said unto the king, I pray thee, let me go and pay my vow, which I have vowed unto Jehovah, in Hebron.For thy servant vowed a vow while I abode at Geshur in Syria, saying, If Jehovah shall indeed bring me again to Jerusalem, then I will serve Jehovah.And the king said unto him, Go in peace. So he arose, and went to Hebron.But Absalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, As soon as ye hear the sound of the trumpet, then ye shall say, Absalom is king in Hebron.And with Absalom went two hundred men out of Jerusalem, that were invited, and went in their simplicity; and they knew not anything.And Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David’s counsellor, from his city, even from Giloh, while he was offering the sacrifices. And the conspiracy was strong; for the people increased continually with Absalom.And there came a messenger to David, saying, The hearts of the men of Israel are after Absalom.And David said unto all his servants that were with him at Jerusalem, Arise, and let us flee; for else none of us shall escape from Absalom: make speed to depart, lest he overtake us quickly, and bring down evil upon us, and smite the city with the edge of the sword.And the king’s servants said unto the king, Behold, thy servants are ready to do whatsoever my lord the king shall choose.And the king went forth, and all his household after him. And the king left ten women, that were concubines, to keep the house.And the king went forth, and all the people after him; and they tarried in Beth- merhak.And all his servants passed on beside him; and all the Cherethites, and all the Pelethites, and all the Gittites, six hundred men that came after him from Gath, passed on before the king.Then said the king to Ittai the Gittite, Wherefore goest thou also with us? return, and abide with the king: for thou art a foreigner, and also an exile; return to thine own place.Whereas thou camest but yesterday, should I this day make thee go up and down with us, seeing I go whither I may? return thou, and take back thy brethren; mercy and truth be with thee.

Remember, O Jehovah, what is come upon us: Behold, and see our reproach.

Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O Jehovah.

Remember mine affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall.

And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.

Jehovah, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty; Neither do I exercise myself in great matters, Or in things too wonderful for me.

And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking unto Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul.And Saul took him that day, and would let him go no more home to his father’s house.Then Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him as his own soul.And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was upon him, and gave it to David, and his apparel, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle.And David went out whithersoever Saul sent him, and behaved himself wisely: and Saul set him over the men of war, and it was good in the sight of all the people, and also in the sight of Saul’s servants.And it came to pass as they came, when David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women came out of all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet king Saul, with timbrels, with joy, and with instruments of music.And the women sang one to another as they played, and said, Saul hath slain his thousands, And David his ten thousands.And Saul was very wroth, and this saying displeased him; and he said, They have ascribed unto David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed but thousands: and what can he have more but the kingdom?And Saul eyed David from that day and forward.And it came to pass on the morrow, that an evil spirit from God came mightily upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of the house: and David played with his hand, as he did day by day. And Saul had his spear in his hand;and Saul cast the spear; for he said, I will smite David even to the wall. And David avoided out of his presence twice.And Saul was afraid of David, because Jehovah was with him, and was departed from Saul.Therefore Saul removed him from him, and made him his captain over a thousand; and he went out and came in before the people.And David behaved himself wisely in all his ways; and Jehovah was with him.And when Saul saw that he behaved himself very wisely, he stood in awe of him.But all Israel and Judah loved David; for he went out and came in before them.And Saul said to David, Behold, my elder daughter Merab, her will I give thee to wife: only be thou valiant for me, and fight Jehovah’s battles. For Saul said, Let not my hand be upon him, but let the hand of the Philistines be upon him.And David said unto Saul, Who am I, and what is my life, or my father’s family in Israel, that I should be son- in- law to the king?But it came to pass at the time when Merab, Saul’s daughter, should have been given to David, that she was given unto Adriel the Meholathite to wife.And Michal, Saul’s daughter, loved David: and they told Saul, and the thing pleased him.And Saul said, I will give him her, that she may be a snare to him, and that the hand of the Philistines may be against him. Wherefore Saul said to David, Thou shalt this day be my son- in- law a second time.And Saul commanded his servants, saying, Commune with David secretly, and say, Behold, the king hath delight in thee, and all his servants love thee: now therefore be the king’s son- in- law.And Saul’s servants spake those words in the ears of David. And David said, Seemeth it to you a light thing to be the king’s son- in- law, seeing that I am a poor man, and lightly esteemed?And the servants of Saul told him, saying, On this manner spake David.And Saul said, Thus shall ye say to David, The king desireth not any dowry, but a hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to be avenged of the king’s enemies. Now Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines.And when his servants told David these words, it pleased David well to be the king’s son- in- law. And the days were not expired;and David arose and went, he and his men, and slew of the Philistines two hundred men; and David brought their foreskins, and they gave them in full number to the king, that he might be the king’s son- in- law. And Saul gave him Michal his daughter to wife.And Saul saw and knew that Jehovah was with David; and Michal, Saul’s daughter, loved him.And Saul was yet the more afraid of David; and Saul was David’s enemy continually.Then the princes of the Philistines went forth: and it came to pass, as often as they went forth, that David behaved himself more wisely than all the servants of Saul; so that his name was much set by.

I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go unto the house of Jehovah.
