from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?
19:022:002 O my God, I cry in the day time, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent.
19:022:003 But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.
19:022:004 Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.
19:022:005 They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.
19:022:006 But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.
19:022:007 All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying,
19:022:008 He trusted on the LORD that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.
19:022:009 But thou art he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me hope when I was upon my mother’s breasts.
19:022:010 I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother’s belly.
19:022:011 Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help.
19:022:012 Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.
19:022:013 They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion.
19:022:014 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.
19:022:015 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.
19:022:016 For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet.
19:022:017 I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me.
19:022:018 They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.
19:022:019 But be not thou far from me, O LORD: O my strength, haste thee to help me.
19:022:020 Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog.
19:022:021 Save me from the lion’s mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns.
19:022:022 I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.
19:022:023 Ye that fear the LORD, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel.
19:022:024 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.
19:022:025 My praise shall be of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.
19:022:026 The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the LORD that seek him: your heart shall live for ever.
19:022:027 All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.
19:022:028 For the kingdom is the LORD’s: and he is the governor among the nations.
19:022:029 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.
19:022:030 A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation.
19:022:031 They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done this.
19:023:001 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
19:023:002 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
19:023:003 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
19:023:004 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.
19:023:005 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
19:023:006 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.
19:024:001 The earth is the LORD’s, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
19:024:002 For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.
19:024:003 Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place?
19:024:004 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.
19:024:005 He shall receive the blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
19:024:006 This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. Selah.
19:024:007 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.
19:024:008 Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle.
19:024:009 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.
19:024:010 Who is this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, he is the King of glory. Selah.
19:025:001 Unto thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul.
19:025:002 O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.
19:025:003 Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause.
19:025:004 Shew me thy ways, O LORD; teach me thy paths.
19:025:005 Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day.
19:025:006 Remember, O LORD, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they have been ever of old.
19:025:007 Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to thy mercy remember thou me for thy goodness’ sake, O LORD.
19:025:008 Good and upright is the LORD: therefore will he teach sinners in the way.
19:025:009 The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way.
19:025:010 All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.
19:025:011 For thy name’s sake, O LORD, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great.
19:025:012 What man is he that feareth the LORD? him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose.
19:025:013 His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth.
19:025:014 The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.
19:025:015 Mine eyes are ever toward the LORD; for he shall pluck my feet out of the net.
19:025:016 Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; for I am desolate and afflicted.
19:025:017 The troubles of my heart are enlarged: O bring thou me out of my distresses.
19:025:018 Look upon mine affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins.
19:025:019 Consider mine enemies; for they are many; and they hate me with cruel hatred.
19:025:020 O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in thee.
19:025:021 Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee.
19:025:022 Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.
19:026:001 Judge me, O LORD; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; therefore I shall not slide.
19:026:002 Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.
19:026:003 For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth.
19:026:004 I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers.
19:026:005 I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked.
19:026:006 I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O LORD:
19:026:007 That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy wondrous works.
19:026:008 LORD, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth.
19:026:009 Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men:
19:026:010 In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes.
19:026:011 But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful unto me.
19:026:012 My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the LORD.
19:027:001 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?
19:027:002 When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.
19:027:003 Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.
19:027:004 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 enquire in his temple.
19:027:005 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.
19:027:006 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.
19:027:007 Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me.
19:027:008 When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek.
19:027:009 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.
19:027:010 When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up.
19:027:011 Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies.
19:027:012 Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.
19:027:013 I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.
19:027:014 Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.
19:028:001 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.
19:028:002 Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle.
19:028:003 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.
19:028:004 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.
19:028:005 Because they regard not the works of the LORD, nor the operation of his hands, he shall destroy them, and not build them up.
19:028:006 Blessed be the LORD, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications.
19:028:007 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.
19:028:008 The LORD is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed.
19:028:009 Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: feed them also, and lift them up for ever.
19:029:001 Give unto the LORD, O ye mighty, give unto the LORD glory and strength.
19:029:002 Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.
19:029:003 The voice of the LORD is upon the waters: the God of glory thundereth: the LORD is upon many waters.
19:029:004 The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is full of majesty.
19:029:005 The voice of the LORD breaketh the cedars; yea, the LORD breaketh the cedars of Lebanon.
19:029:006 He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn.
19:029:007 The voice of the LORD divideth the flames of fire.
19:029:008 The voice of the LORD shaketh the wilderness; the LORD shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.
19:029:009 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.
19:029:010 The LORD sitteth upon the flood; yea, the LORD sitteth King for ever.
19:029:011 The LORD will give strength unto his people; the LORD will bless his people with peace.
19:030:001 I will extol thee, O LORD; for thou hast lifted me up, and hast not made my foes to rejoice over me.
19:030:002 O LORD my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me.
19:030:003 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.
19:030:004 Sing unto the LORD, O ye saints of his, and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.
19:030:005 For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.
19:030:006 And in my prosperity I said, I shall never be moved.
19:030:007 LORD, by thy favour thou hast made my mountain to stand strong: thou didst hide thy face, and I was troubled.
19:030:008 I cried to thee, O LORD; and unto the LORD I made supplication.
19:030:009 What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?
19:030:010 Hear, O LORD, and have mercy upon me: LORD, be thou my helper.
19:030:011 Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;
19:030:012 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.
19:031:001 In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness.
19:031:002 Bow down thine ear to me; deliver me speedily: be thou my strong rock, for an house of defence to save me.
19:031:003 For thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore for thy name’s sake lead me, and guide me.
19:031:004 Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me: for thou art my strength.
19:031:005 Into thine hand I commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O LORD God of truth.
19:031:006 I have hated them that regard lying vanities: but I trust in the LORD.
19:031:007 I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy: for thou hast considered my trouble; thou hast known my soul in adversities;
19:031:008 And hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a large room.
19:031:009 Have mercy upon me, O LORD, for I am in trouble: mine eye is consumed with grief, yea, my soul and my belly.
19:031:010 For my life is spent with grief, and my years with sighing: my strength faileth because of mine iniquity, and my bones are consumed.
19:031:011 I was a reproach among all mine enemies, but especially among my neighbours, and a fear to mine acquaintance: they that did see me without fled from me.
19:031:012 I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel.
19:031:013 For I have heard the slander of many: fear was on every side: while they took counsel together against me, they devised to take away my life.
19:031:014 But I trusted in thee, O LORD: I said, Thou art my God.
19:031:015 My times are in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me.
19:031:016 Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: save me for thy mercies’ sake.
19:031:017 Let me not be ashamed, O LORD; for I have called upon thee: let the wicked be ashamed, and let them be silent in the grave.
19:031:018 Let the lying lips be put to silence; which speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous.
19:031:019 Oh how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee; which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men!
19:031:020 Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man: thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues.
19:031:021 Blessed be the LORD: for he hath shewed me his marvellous kindness in a strong city.
19:031:022 For I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes: nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee.
19:031:023 O love the LORD, all ye his saints: for the LORD preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer.
19:031:024 Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD.
19:032:001 Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.
19:032:002 Blessed is the man unto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile.
19:032:003 When I kept silence, my bones waxed old through my roaring all the day long.
19:032:004 For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: my moisture is turned into the drought of summer. Selah.
19:032:005 I acknowledge my sin unto thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid. I said, I will confess my transgressions unto the LORD; and thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. Selah.
19:032:006 For this shall every one that is godly pray unto thee in a time when thou mayest be found: surely in the floods of great waters they shall not come nigh unto him.
19:032:007 Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah.
19:032:008 I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.
19:032:009 Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, lest they come near unto thee.
19:032:010 Many sorrows shall be to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the LORD, mercy shall compass him about.
19:032:011 Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart.
19:033:001 Rejoice in the LORD, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright.
19:033:002 Praise the LORD with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery and an instrument of ten strings.
19:033:003 Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise.
19:033:004 For the word of the LORD is right; and all his works are done in truth.
19:033:005 He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of the LORD.
19:033:006 By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.
19:033:007 He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up the depth in storehouses.
19:033:008 Let all the earth fear the LORD: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
19:033:009 For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.
19:033:010 The LORD bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect.
19:033:011 The counsel of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
19:033:012 Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.
19:033:013 The LORD looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men.
19:033:014 From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth.
19:033:015 He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works.
19:033:016 There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.
19:033:017 An horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great strength.
19:033:018 Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy;
19:033:019 To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
19:033:020 Our soul waiteth for the LORD: he is our help and our shield.
19:033:021 For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his holy name.
19:033:022 Let thy mercy, O LORD, be upon us, according as we hope in thee.
19:034:001 I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
19:034:002 My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.
19:034:003 O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together.
19:034:004 I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.
19:034:005 They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed.
19:034:006 This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.
19:034:007 The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.
19:034:008 O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him.
19:034:009 O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.
19:034:010 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the LORD shall not want any good thing.
19:034:011 Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the LORD.
19:034:012 What man is he that desireth life, and loveth many days, that he may see good?
19:034:013 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.
19:034:014 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.
19:034:015 The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.
19:034:016 The face of the LORD is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
19:034:017 The righteous cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.
19:034:018 The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.
19:034:019 Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all.
19:034:020 He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken.
19:034:021 Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.
19:034:022 The LORD redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate.
19:035:001 Plead my cause, O LORD, with them that strive with me: fight against them that fight against me.
19:035:002 Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for mine help.
19:035:003 Draw out also the spear, and stop the way against them that persecute me: say unto my soul, I am thy salvation.
19:035:004 Let them be confounded and put to shame that seek after my soul: let them be turned back and brought to confusion that devise my hurt.
19:035:005 Let them be as chaff before the wind: and let the angel of the LORD chase them.
19:035:006 Let their way be dark and slippery: and let the angel of the LORD persecute them.
19:035:007 For without cause have they hid for me their net in a pit, which without cause they have digged for my soul.
19:035:008 Let destruction come upon him at unawares; and let his net that he hath hid catch himself: into that very destruction let him fall.
19:035:009 And my soul shall be joyful in the LORD: it shall rejoice in his salvation.
19:035:010 All my bones shall say, LORD, who is like unto thee, which deliverest the poor from him that is too strong for him, yea, the poor and the needy from him that spoileth him?
19:035:011 False witnesses did rise up; they laid to my charge things that I knew not.
19:035:012 They rewarded me evil for good to the spoiling of my soul.
19:035:013 But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth: I humbled my soul with fasting; and my prayer returned into mine own bosom.
19:035:014 I behaved myself as though he had been my friend or brother: I bowed down heavily, as one that mourneth for his mother.
19:035:015 But in mine adversity they rejoiced, and gathered themselves together: yea, the abjects gathered themselves together against me, and I knew it not; they did tear me, and ceased not:
19:035:016 With hypocritical mockers in feasts, they gnashed upon me with their teeth.
19:035:017 Lord, how long wilt thou look on? rescue my soul from their destructions, my darling from the lions.
19:035:018 I will give thee thanks in the great congregation: I will praise thee among much people.
19:035:019 Let not them that are mine enemies wrongfully rejoice over me: neither let them wink with the eye that hate me without a cause.
19:035:020 For they speak not peace: but they devise deceitful matters against them that are quiet in the land.
19:035:021 Yea, they opened their mouth wide against me, and said, Aha, aha, our eye hath seen it.
19:035:022 This thou hast seen, O LORD: keep not silence: O Lord, be not far from me.
19:035:023 Stir up thyself, and awake to my judgment, even unto my cause, my God and my Lord.
19:035:024 Judge me, O LORD my God, according to thy righteousness; and let them not rejoice over me.
19:035:025 Let them not say in their hearts, Ah, so would we have it: let them not say, We have swallowed him up.
19:035:026 Let them be ashamed and brought to confusion together that rejoice at mine hurt: let them be clothed with shame and dishonour that magnify themselves against me.
19:035:027 Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favour my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, Let the LORD be magnified, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant.
19:035:028 And my tongue shall speak of thy righteousness and of thy praise all the day long.
19:036:001 The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, that there is no fear of God before his eyes.
19:036:002 For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity be found to be hateful.
19:036:003 The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit: he hath left off to be wise, and to do good.
19:036:004 He deviseth mischief upon his bed; he setteth himself in a way that is not good; he abhorreth not evil.
19:036:005 Thy mercy, O LORD, is in the heavens; and thy faithfulness reacheth unto the clouds.
19:036:006 Thy righteousness is like the great mountains; thy judgments are a great deep: O LORD, thou preservest man and beast.
19:036:007 How excellent is thy lovingkindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings.
19:036:008 They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; and thou shalt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures.
19:036:009 For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light.
19:036:010 O continue thy lovingkindness unto them that know thee; and thy righteousness to the upright in heart.
19:036:011 Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of the wicked remove me.
19:036:012 There are the workers of iniquity fallen: they are cast down, and shall not be able to rise.
19:037:001 Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.
19:037:002 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.
19:037:003 Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.
19:037:004 Delight thyself also in the LORD: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
19:037:005 Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.
19:037:006 And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.
19:037:007 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.
19:037:008 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.
19:037:009 For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth.
19:037:010 For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be.
19:037:011 But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
19:037:012 The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth.
19:037:013 The LORD shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming.
19:037:014 The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, and to slay such as be of upright conversation.
19:037:015 Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.
19:037:016 A little that a righteous man hath is better than the riches of many wicked.
19:037:017 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken: but the LORD upholdeth the righteous.
19:037:018 The LORD knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall be for ever.
19:037:019 They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
19:037:020 But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD shall be as the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away.
19:037:021 The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again: but the righteous sheweth mercy, and giveth.
19:037:022 For such as be blessed of him shall inherit the earth; and they that be cursed of him shall be cut off.
19:037:023 The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.
19:037:024 Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand.
19:037:025 I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.
19:037:026 He is ever merciful, and lendeth; and his seed is blessed.
19:037:027 Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore.
19:037:028 For the LORD loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints; they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.
19:037:029 The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever.
19:037:030 The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgment.
19:037:031 The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.
19:037:032 The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him.
19:037:033 The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.
19:037:034 Wait on the LORD, and keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it.
19:037:035 I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree.
19:037:036 Yet he passed away, and, lo, he was not: yea, I sought him, but he could not be found.
19:037:037 Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the end of that man is peace.
19:037:038 But the transgressors shall be destroyed together: the end of the wicked shall be cut off.
19:037:039 But the salvation of the righteous is of the LORD: he is their strength in the time of trouble.
19:037:040 And the LORD shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him.
19:038:001 O lord, rebuke me not in thy wrath: neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
19:038:002 For thine arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand presseth me sore.
19:038:003 There is no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither is there any rest in my bones because of my sin.
19:038:004 For mine iniquities are gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they are too heavy for me.
19:038:005 My wounds stink and are corrupt because of my foolishness.
19:038:006 I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.
19:038:007 For my loins are filled with a loathsome disease: and there is no soundness in my flesh.
19:038:008 I am feeble and sore broken: I have roared by reason of the disquietness of my heart.
19:038:009 Lord, all my desire is before thee; and my groaning is not hid from thee.
19:038:010 My heart panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me.
19:038:011 My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore; and my kinsmen stand afar off.
19:038:012 They also that seek after my life lay snares for me: and they that seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and imagine deceits all the day long.
19:038:013 But I, as a deaf man, heard not; and I was as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth.
19:038:014 Thus I was as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no reproofs.
19:038:015 For in thee, O LORD, do I hope: thou wilt hear, O Lord my God.
19:038:016 For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.
19:038:017 For I am ready to halt, and my sorrow is continually before me.
19:038:018 For I will declare mine iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin.
19:038:019 But mine enemies are lively, and they are strong: and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.
19:038:020 They also that render evil for good are mine adversaries; because I follow the thing that good is.
19:038:021 Forsake me not, O LORD: O my God, be not far from me.
19:038:022 Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation.
19:039:001 I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me.
19:039:002 I was dumb with silence, I held my peace, even from good; and my sorrow was stirred.
19:039:003 My heart was hot within me, while I was musing the fire burned: then spake I with my tongue,
19:039:004 LORD, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is: that I may know how frail I am.
19:039:005 Behold, thou hast made my days as an handbreadth; and mine age is as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity. Selah.
19:039:006 Surely every man walketh in a vain shew: surely they are disquieted in vain: he heapeth up riches, and knoweth not who shall gather them.
19:039:007 And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope is in thee.
19:039:008 Deliver me from all my transgressions: make me not the reproach of the foolish.
19:039:009 I was dumb, I opened not my mouth; because thou didst it.
19:039:010 Remove thy stroke away from me: I am consumed by the blow of thine hand.
19:039:011 When thou with rebukes dost correct man for iniquity, thou makest his beauty to consume away like a moth: surely every man is vanity. Selah.
19:039:012 Hear my prayer, O LORD, and give ear unto my cry; hold not thy peace at my tears: for I am a stranger with thee, and a sojourner, as all my fathers were.
19:039:013 O spare me, that I may recover strength, before I go hence, and be no more.
19:040:001 I waited patiently for the LORD; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.
19:040:002 He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.
19:040:003 And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.
19:040:004 Blessed is that man that maketh the LORD his trust, and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
19:040:005 Many, O LORD my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.
19:040:006 Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.
19:040:007 Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,
19:040:008 I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.
19:040:009 I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I have not refrained my lips, O LORD, thou knowest.
19:040:010 I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy faithfulness and thy salvation: I have not concealed thy lovingkindness and thy truth from the great congregation.
19:040:011 Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O LORD: let thy lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me.
19:040:012 For innumerable evils have compassed me about: mine iniquities have taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the hairs of mine head: therefore my heart faileth me.
19:040:013 Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me: O LORD, make haste to help me.
19:040:014 Let them be ashamed and confounded together that seek after my soul to destroy it; let them be driven backward and put to shame that wish me evil.
19:040:015 Let them be desolate for a reward of their shame that say unto me, Aha, aha.
19:040:016 Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: let such as love thy salvation say continually, The LORD be magnified.
19:040:017 But I am poor and needy; yet the Lord thinketh upon me: thou art my help and my deliverer; make no tarrying, O my God.
19:041:001 Blessed is he that considereth the poor: the LORD will deliver him in time of trouble.
19:041:002 The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive; and he shall be blessed upon the earth: and thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of his enemies.
19:041:003 The LORD will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing: thou wilt make all his bed in his sickness.
19:041:004 I said, LORD, be merciful unto me: heal my soul; for I have sinned against thee.
19:041:005 Mine enemies speak evil of me, When shall he die, and his name perish?
19:041:006 And if he come to see me, he speaketh vanity: his heart gathereth iniquity to itself; when he goeth abroad, he telleth it.
19:041:007 All that hate me whisper together against me: against me do they devise my hurt.
19:041:008 An evil disease, say they, cleaveth fast unto him: and now that he lieth he shall rise up no more.
19:041:009 Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread, hath lifted up his heel against me.
19:041:010 But thou, O LORD, be merciful unto me, and raise me up, that I may requite them.
19:041:011 By this I know that thou favourest me, because mine enemy doth not triumph over me.
19:041:012 And as for me, thou upholdest me in mine integrity, and settest me before thy face for ever.
19:041:013 Blessed be the LORD God of Israel from everlasting, and to everlasting. Amen, and Amen.
19:042:001 As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God.
19:042:002 My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I come and appear before God?
19:042:003 My tears have been my meat day and night, while they continually say unto me, Where is thy God?
19:042:004 When I remember these things, I pour out my soul in me: for I had gone with the multitude, I went with them to the house of God, with the voice of joy and praise, with a multitude that kept holyday.
19:042:005 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance.
19:042:006 O my God, my soul is cast down within me: therefore will I remember thee from the land of Jordan, and of the Hermonites, from the hill Mizar.
19:042:007 Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterspouts: all thy waves and thy billows are gone over me.
19:042:008 Yet the LORD will command his lovingkindness in the day time, and in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of my life.
19:042:009 I will say unto God my rock, Why hast thou forgotten me? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
19:042:010 As with a sword in my bones, mine enemies reproach me; while they say daily unto me, Where is thy God?
19:042:011 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.
19:043:001 Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation: O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.
19:043:002 For thou art the God of my strength: why dost thou cast me off? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
19:043:003 O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.
19:043:004 Then will I go unto the altar of God, unto God my exceeding joy: yea, upon the harp will I praise thee, O God my God.
19:043:005 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.
19:044:001 We have heard with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, what work thou didst in their days, in the times of old.
19:044:002 How thou didst drive out the heathen with thy hand, and plantedst them; how thou didst afflict the people, and cast them out.
19:044:003 For they got not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them: but thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favour unto them.
19:044:004 Thou art my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob.
19:044:005 Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us.
19:044:006 For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.
19:044:007 But thou hast saved us from our enemies, and hast put them to shame that hated us.
19:044:008 In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy name for ever. Selah.
19:044:009 But thou hast cast off, and put us to shame; and goest not forth with our armies.
19:044:010 Thou makest us to turn back from the enemy: and they which hate us spoil for themselves.
19:044:011 Thou hast given us like sheep appointed for meat; and hast scattered us among the heathen.
19:044:012 Thou sellest thy people for nought, and dost not increase thy wealth by their price.
19:044:013 Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and a derision to them that are round about us.
19:044:014 Thou makest us a byword among the heathen, a shaking of the head among the people.
19:044:015 My confusion is continually before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me,
19:044:016 For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and avenger.
19:044:017 All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, neither have we dealt falsely in thy covenant.
19:044:018 Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from thy way;
19:044:019 Though thou hast sore broken us in the place of dragons, and covered us with the shadow of death.
19:044:020 If we have forgotten the name of our God, or stretched out our hands to a strange god;
19:044:021 Shall not God search this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
19:044:022 Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.
19:044:023 Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, cast us not off for ever.
19:044:024 Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and forgettest our affliction and our oppression?
19:044:025 For our soul is bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth unto the earth.
19:044:026 Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy mercies’ sake.
19:045:001 My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made touching the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready writer.
19:045:002 Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.
19:045:003 Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O most mighty, with thy glory and thy majesty.
19:045:004 And in thy majesty ride prosperously because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things.
19:045:005 Thine arrows are sharp in the heart of the king’s enemies; whereby the people fall under thee.
19:045:006 Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom is a right sceptre.
19:045:007 Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
19:045:008 All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia, out of the ivory palaces, whereby they have made thee glad.
19:045:009 Kings’ daughters were among thy honourable women: upon thy right hand did stand the queen in gold of Ophir.
19:045:010 Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father’s house;
19:045:011 So shall the king greatly desire thy beauty: for he is thy Lord; and worship thou him.
19:045:012 And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift; even the rich among the people shall intreat thy favour.
19:045:013 The king’s daughter is all glorious within: her clothing is of wrought gold.
19:045:014 She shall be brought unto the king in raiment of needlework: the virgins her companions that follow her shall be brought unto thee.
19:045:015 With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought: they shall enter into the king’s palace.
19:045:016 Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children, whom thou mayest make princes in all the earth.
19:045:017 I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations: therefore shall the people praise thee for ever and ever.
19:046:001 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
19:046:002 Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
19:046:003 Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.
19:046:004 There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.
19:046:005 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.
19:046:006 The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted.
19:046:007 The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
19:046:008 Come, behold the works of the LORD, what desolations he hath made in the earth.
19:046:009 He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire.
19:046:010 Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
19:046:011 The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
19:047:001 O clap your hands, all ye people; shout unto God with the voice of triumph.
19:047:002 For the LORD most high is terrible; he is a great King over all the earth.
19:047:003 He shall subdue the people under us, and the nations under our feet.
19:047:004 He shall choose our inheritance for us, the excellency of Jacob whom he loved. Selah.
19:047:005 God is gone up with a shout, the LORD with the sound of a trumpet.
19:047:006 Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, sing praises.
19:047:007 For God is the King of all the earth: sing ye praises with understanding.
19:047:008 God reigneth over the heathen: God sitteth upon the throne of his holiness.
19:047:009 The princes of the people are gathered together, even the people of the God of Abraham: for the shields of the earth belong unto God: he is greatly exalted.
19:048:001 Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in the mountain of his holiness.
19:048:002 Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, on the sides of the north, the city of the great King.
19:048:003 God is known in her palaces for a refuge.
19:048:004 For, lo, the kings were assembled, they passed by together.
19:048:005 They saw it, and so they marvelled; they were troubled, and hasted away.
19:048:006 Fear took hold upon them there, and pain, as of a woman in travail.
19:048:007 Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish with an east wind.
19:048:008 As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God: God will establish it for ever. Selah.
19:048:009 We have thought of thy lovingkindness, O God, in the midst of thy temple.
19:048:010 According to thy name, O God, so is thy praise unto the ends of the earth: thy right hand is full of righteousness.
19:048:011 Let mount Zion rejoice, let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of thy judgments.
19:048:012 Walk about Zion, and go round about her: tell the towers thereof.
19:048:013 Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces; that ye may tell it to the generation following.
19:048:014 For this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide even unto death.
19:049:001 Hear this, all ye people; give ear, all ye inhabitants of the world:
19:049:002 Both low and high, rich and poor, together.
19:049:003 My mouth shall speak of wisdom; and the meditation of my heart shall be of understanding.
19:049:004 I will incline mine ear to a parable: I will open my dark saying upon the harp.
19:049:005 Wherefore should I fear in the days of evil, when the iniquity of my heels shall compass me about?
19:049:006 They that trust in their wealth, and boast themselves in the multitude of their riches;
19:049:007 None of them can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him:
19:049:008 (For the redemption of their soul is precious, and it ceaseth for ever:)
19:049:009 That he should still live for ever, and not see corruption.
19:049:010 For he seeth that wise men die, likewise the fool and the brutish person perish, and leave their wealth to others.
19:049:011 Their inward thought is, that their houses shall continue for ever, and their dwelling places to all generations; they call their lands after their own names.
19:049:012 Nevertheless man being in honour abideth not: he is like the beasts that perish.
19:049:013 This their way is their folly: yet their posterity approve their sayings. Selah.
19:049:014 Like sheep they are laid in the grave; death shall feed on them; and the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning; and their beauty shall consume in the grave from their dwelling.
19:049:015 But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall receive me. Selah.
19:049:016 Be not thou afraid when one is made rich, when the glory of his house is increased;
19:049:017 For when he dieth he shall carry nothing away: his glory shall not descend after him.
19:049:018 Though while he lived he blessed his soul: and men will praise thee, when thou doest well to thyself.
19:049:019 He shall go to the generation of his fathers; they shall never see light.
19:049:020 Man that is in honour, and understandeth not, is like the beasts that perish.
19:050:001 The mighty God, even the LORD, hath spoken, and called the earth from the rising of the sun unto the going down thereof.
19:050:002 Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God hath shined.
19:050:003 Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence: a fire shall devour before him, and it shall be very tempestuous round about him.
19:050:004 He shall call to the heavens from above, and to the earth, that he may judge his people.
19:050:005 Gather my saints together unto me; those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice.
19:050:006 And the heavens shall declare his righteousness: for God is judge himself. Selah.
19:050:007 Hear, O my people, and I will speak; O Israel, and I will testify against thee: I am God, even thy God.
19:050:008 I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices or thy burnt offerings, to have been continually before me.
19:050:009 I will take no bullock out of thy house, nor he goats out of thy folds.
19:050:010 For every beast of the forest is mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills.
19:050:011 I know all the fowls of the mountains: and the wild beasts of the field are mine.
19:050:012 If I were hungry, I would not tell thee: for the world is mine, and the fulness thereof.
19:050:013 Will I eat the flesh of bulls, or drink the blood of goats?
19:050:014 Offer unto God thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the most High:
19:050:015 And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me.
19:050:016 But unto the wicked God saith, What hast thou to do to declare my statutes, or that thou shouldest take my covenant in thy mouth?
19:050:017 Seeing thou hatest instruction, and casteth my words behind thee.
19:050:018 When thou sawest a thief, then thou consentedst with him, and hast been partaker with adulterers.
19:050:019 Thou givest thy mouth to evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit.
19:050:020 Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; thou slanderest thine own mother’s son.
19:050:021 These things hast thou done, and I kept silence; thou thoughtest that I was altogether such an one as thyself: but I will reprove thee, and set them in order before thine eyes.
19:050:022 Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver.
19:050:023 Whoso offereth praise glorifieth me: and to him that ordereth his conversation aright will I shew the salvation of God.
19:051:001 Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions.
19:051:002 Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
19:051:003 For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.
19:051:004 Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest.
19:051:005 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.
19:051:006 Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom.
19:051:007 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
19:051:008 Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.
19:051:009 Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.
19:051:010 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
19:051:011 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.
19:051:012 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.
19:051:013 Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.
19:051:014 Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.
19:051:015 O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise.
19:051:016 For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: thou delightest not in burnt offering.
19:051:017 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
19:051:018 Do good in thy good pleasure unto Zion: build thou the walls of Jerusalem.
19:051:019 Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon thine altar.
19:052:001 Why boastest thou thyself in mischief, O mighty man? the goodness of God endureth continually.
19:052:002 The tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.
19:052:003 Thou lovest evil more than good; and lying rather than to speak righteousness. Selah.
19:052:004 Thou lovest all devouring words, O thou deceitful tongue.
19:052:005 God shall likewise destroy thee for ever, he shall take thee away, and pluck thee out of thy dwelling place, and root thee out of the land of the living. Selah.
19:052:006 The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him:
19:052:007 Lo, this is the man that made not God his strength; but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness.
19:052:008 But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God: I trust in the mercy of God for ever and ever.
19:052:009 I will praise thee for ever, because thou hast done it: and I will wait on thy name; for it is good before thy saints.
19:053:001 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good.
19:053:002 God looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God.
19:053:003 Every one of them is gone back: they are altogether become filthy; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
19:053:004 Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread: they have not called upon God.
19:053:005 There were they in great fear, where no fear was: for God hath scattered the bones of him that encampeth against thee: thou hast put them to shame, because God hath despised them.
19:053:006 Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When God bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
19:054:001 Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me by thy strength.
19:054:002 Hear my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth.
19:054:003 For strangers are risen up against me, and oppressors seek after my soul: they have not set God before them. Selah.
19:054:004 Behold, God is mine helper: the Lord is with them that uphold my soul.
19:054:005 He shall reward evil unto mine enemies: cut them off in thy truth.
19:054:006 I will freely sacrifice unto thee: I will praise thy name, O LORD; for it is good.
19:054:007 For he hath delivered me out of all trouble: and mine eye hath seen his desire upon mine enemies.
19:055:001 Give ear to my prayer, O God; and hide not thyself from my supplication.
19:055:002 Attend unto me, and hear me: I mourn in my complaint, and make a noise;
19:055:003 Because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked: for they cast iniquity upon me, and in wrath they hate me.
19:055:004 My heart is sore pained within me: and the terrors of death are fallen upon me.
19:055:005 Fearfulness and trembling are come upon me, and horror hath overwhelmed me.
19:055:006 And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at rest.
19:055:007 Lo, then would I wander far off, and remain in the wilderness. Selah.
19:055:008 I would hasten my escape from the windy storm and tempest.
19:055:009 Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongues: for I have seen violence and strife in the city.
19:055:010 Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof: mischief also and sorrow are in the midst of it.
19:055:011 Wickedness is in the midst thereof: deceit and guile depart not from her streets.
19:055:012 For it was not an enemy that reproached me; then I could have borne it: neither was it he that hated me that did magnify himself against me; then I would have hid myself from him:
19:055:013 But it was thou, a man mine equal, my guide, and mine acquaintance.
19:055:014 We took sweet counsel together, and walked unto the house of God in company.
19:055:015 Let death seize upon them, and let them go down quick into hell: for wickedness is in their dwellings, and among them.
19:055:016 As for me, I will call upon God; and the LORD shall save me.
19:055:017 Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice.
19:055:018 He hath delivered my soul in peace from the battle that was against me: for there were many with me.
19:055:019 God shall hear, and afflict them, even he that abideth of old. Selah. Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not God.
19:055:020 He hath put forth his hands against such as be at peace with him: he hath broken his covenant.
19:055:021 The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was in his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet were they drawn swords.
19:055:022 Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.
19:055:023 But thou, O God, shalt bring them down into the pit of destruction: bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days; but I will trust in thee.
19:056:001 Be merciful unto me, O God: for man would swallow me up; he fighting daily oppresseth me.
19:056:002 Mine enemies would daily swallow me up: for they be many that fight against me, O thou most High.
19:056:003 What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.
19:056:004 In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me.
19:056:005 Every day they wrest my words: all their thoughts are against me for evil.
19:056:006 They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my steps, when they wait for my soul.
19:056:007 Shall they escape by iniquity? in thine anger cast down the people, O God.
19:056:008 Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: are they not in thy book?
19:056:009 When I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know; for God is for me.
19:056:010 In God will I praise his word: in the LORD will I praise his word.
19:056:011 In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto me.
19:056:012 Thy vows are upon me, O God: I will render praises unto thee.
19:056:013 For thou hast delivered my soul from death: wilt not thou deliver my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living?
19:057:001 Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge, until these calamities be overpast.
19:057:002 I will cry unto God most high; unto God that performeth all things for me.
19:057:003 He shall send from heaven, and save me from the reproach of him that would swallow me up. Selah. God shall send forth his mercy and his truth.
19:057:004 My soul is among lions: and I lie even among them that are set on fire, even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.
19:057:005 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth.
19:057:006 They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul is bowed down: they have digged a pit before me, into the midst whereof they are fallen themselves. Selah.
19:057:007 My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise.
19:057:008 Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.
19:057:009 I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing unto thee among the nations.
19:057:010 For thy mercy is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds.
19:057:011 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: let thy glory be above all the earth.
19:058:001 Do ye indeed speak righteousness, O congregation? do ye judge uprightly, O ye sons of men?
19:058:002 Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh the violence of your hands in the earth.
19:058:003 The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they be born, speaking lies.
19:058:004 Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: they are like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear;
19:058:005 Which will not hearken to the voice of charmers, charming never so wisely.
19:058:006 Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth: break out the great teeth of the young lions, O LORD.
19:058:007 Let them melt away as waters which run continually: when he bendeth his bow to shoot his arrows, let them be as cut in pieces.
19:058:008 As a snail which melteth, let every one of them pass away: like the untimely birth of a woman, that they may not see the sun.
19:058:009 Before your pots can feel the thorns, he shall take them away as with a whirlwind, both living, and in his wrath.
19:058:010 The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: he shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.
19:058:011 So that a man shall say, Verily there is a reward for the righteous: verily he is a God that judgeth in the earth.
19:059:001 Deliver me from mine enemies, O my God: defend me from them that rise up against me.
19:059:002 Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from bloody men.
19:059:003 For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul: the mighty are gathered against me; not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O LORD.
19:059:004 They run and prepare themselves without my fault: awake to help me, and behold.
19:059:005 Thou therefore, O LORD God of hosts, the God of Israel, awake to visit all the heathen: be not merciful to any wicked transgressors. Selah.
19:059:006 They return at evening: they make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.
19:059:007 Behold, they belch out with their mouth: swords are in their lips: for who, say they, doth hear?
19:059:008 But thou, O LORD, shalt laugh at them; thou shalt have all the heathen in derision.
19:059:009 Because of his strength will I wait upon thee: for God is my defence.
19:059:010 The God of my mercy shall prevent me: God shall let me see my desire upon mine enemies.
19:059:011 Slay them not, lest my people forget: scatter them by thy power; and bring them down, O Lord our shield.
19:059:012 For the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips let them even be taken in their pride: and for cursing and lying which they speak.
19:059:013 Consume them in wrath, consume them, that they may not be: and let them know that God ruleth in Jacob unto the ends of the earth. Selah.
19:059:014 And at evening let them return; and let them make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.
19:059:015 Let them wander up and down for meat, and grudge if they be not satisfied.
19:059:016 But I will sing of thy power; yea, I will sing aloud of thy mercy in the morning: for thou hast been my defence and refuge in the day of my trouble.
19:059:017 Unto thee, O my strength, will I sing: for God is my defence, and the God of my mercy.
19:060:001 O God, thou hast cast us off, thou hast scattered us, thou hast been displeased; O turn thyself to us again.
19:060:002 Thou hast made the earth to tremble; thou hast broken it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh.
19:060:003 Thou hast shewed thy people hard things: thou hast made us to drink the wine of astonishment.
19:060:004 Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee, that it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah.
19:060:005 That thy beloved may be delivered; save with thy right hand, and hear me.
19:060:006 God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.
19:060:007 Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;
19:060:008 Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe: Philistia, triumph thou because of me.
19:060:009 Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?
19:060:010 Wilt not thou, O God, which hadst cast us off? and thou, O God, which didst not go out with our armies?
19:060:011 Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.
19:060:012 Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.
19:061:001 Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.
19:061:002 From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
19:061:003 For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy.
19:061:004 I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings. Selah.
19:061:005 For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear thy name.
19:061:006 Thou wilt prolong the king’s life: and his years as many generations.
19:061:007 He shall abide before God for ever: O prepare mercy and truth, which may preserve him.
19:061:008 So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.
19:062:001 Truly my soul waiteth upon God: from him cometh my salvation.
19:062:002 He only is my rock and my salvation; he is my defence; I shall not be greatly moved.
19:062:003 How long will ye imagine mischief against a man? ye shall be slain all of you: as a bowing wall shall ye be, and as a tottering fence.
19:062:004 They only consult to cast him down from his excellency: they delight in lies: they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah.
19:062:005 My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him.
19:062:006 He only is my rock and my salvation: he is my defence; I shall not be moved.
19:062:007 In God is my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God.
19:062:008 Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. Selah.
19:062:009 Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie: to be laid in the balance, they are altogether lighter than vanity.
19:062:010 Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery: if riches increase, set not your heart upon them.
19:062:011 God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power belongeth unto God.
19:062:012 Also unto thee, O Lord, belongeth mercy: for thou renderest to every man according to his work.
19:063:001 O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;
19:063:002 To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.
19:063:003 Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.
19:063:004 Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.
19:063:005 My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips:
19:063:006 When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches.
19:063:007 Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.
19:063:008 My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.
19:063:009 But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth.
19:063:010 They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.
19:063:011 But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall
