Chapter 39

19:118:010 All nations compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD will I destroy them.

19:118:011 They compassed me about; yea, they compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.

19:118:012 They compassed me about like bees: they are quenched as the fire of thorns: for in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.

19:118:013 Thou hast thrust sore at me that I might fall: but the LORD helped me.

19:118:014 The LORD is my strength and song, and is become my salvation.

19:118:015 The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tabernacles of the righteous: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.

19:118:016 The right hand of the LORD is exalted: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.

19:118:017 I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.

19:118:018 The LORD hath chastened me sore: but he hath not given me over unto death.

19:118:019 Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will go into them, and I will praise the LORD:

19:118:020 This gate of the LORD, into which the righteous shall enter.

19:118:021 I will praise thee: for thou hast heard me, and art become my salvation.

19:118:022 The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner.

19:118:023 This is the LORD's doing; it is marvellous in our eyes.

19:118:024 This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

19:118:025 Save now, I beseech thee, O LORD: O LORD, I beseech thee, send now prosperity.

19:118:026 Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the LORD: we have blessed you out of the house of the LORD.

19:118:027 God is the LORD, which hath shewed us light: bind the sacrifice with cords, even unto the horns of the altar.

19:118:028 Thou art my God, and I will praise thee: thou art my God, I will exalt thee.

19:118:029 O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.

19:119:001 Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the LORD.

19:119:002 Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart.

19:119:003 They also do no iniquity: they walk in his ways.

19:119:004 Thou hast commanded us to keep thy precepts diligently.

19:119:005 O that my ways were directed to keep thy statutes!

19:119:006 Then shall I not be ashamed, when I have respect unto all thy commandments.

19:119:007 I will praise thee with uprightness of heart, when I shall have learned thy righteous judgments.

19:119:008 I will keep thy statutes: O forsake me not utterly.

19:119:009 Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word.

19:119:010 With my whole heart have I sought thee: O let me not wander from thy commandments.

19:119:011 Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.

19:119:012 Blessed art thou, O LORD: teach me thy statutes.

19:119:013 With my lips have I declared all the judgments of thy mouth.

19:119:014 I have rejoiced in the way of thy testimonies, as much as in all riches.

19:119:015 I will meditate in thy precepts, and have respect unto thy ways.

19:119:016 I will delight myself in thy statutes: I will not forget thy word.

19:119:017 Deal bountifully with thy servant, that I may live, and keep thy word.

19:119:018 Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law.

19:119:019 I am a stranger in the earth: hide not thy commandments from me.

19:119:020 My soul breaketh for the longing that it hath unto thy judgments at all times.

19:119:021 Thou hast rebuked the proud that are cursed, which do err from thy commandments.

19:119:022 Remove from me reproach and contempt; for I have kept thy testimonies.

19:119:023 Princes also did sit and speak against me: but thy servant did meditate in thy statutes.

19:119:024 Thy testimonies also are my delight and my counsellors.

19:119:025 My soul cleaveth unto the dust: quicken thou me according to thy word.

19:119:026 I have declared my ways, and thou heardest me: teach me thy statutes.

19:119:027 Make me to understand the way of thy precepts: so shall I talk of thy wondrous works.

19:119:028 My soul melteth for heaviness: strengthen thou me according unto thy word.

19:119:029 Remove from me the way of lying: and grant me thy law graciously.

19:119:030 I have chosen the way of truth: thy judgments have I laid before me.

19:119:031 I have stuck unto thy testimonies: O LORD, put me not to shame.

19:119:032 I will run the way of thy commandments, when thou shalt enlarge my heart.

19:119:033 Teach me, O LORD, the way of thy statutes; and I shall keep it unto the end.

19:119:034 Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law; yea, I shall observe it with my whole heart.

19:119:035 Make me to go in the path of thy commandments; for therein do I delight.

19:119:036 Incline my heart unto thy testimonies, and not to covetousness.

19:119:037 Turn away mine eyes from beholding vanity; and quicken thou me in thy way.

19:119:038 Stablish thy word unto thy servant, who is devoted to thy fear.

19:119:039 Turn away my reproach which I fear: for thy judgments are good.

19:119:040 Behold, I have longed after thy precepts: quicken me in thy righteousness.

19:119:041 Let thy mercies come also unto me, O LORD, even thy salvation, according to thy word.

19:119:042 So shall I have wherewith to answer him that reproacheth me: for I trust in thy word.

19:119:043 And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth; for I have hoped in thy judgments.

19:119:044 So shall I keep thy law continually for ever and ever.

19:119:045 And I will walk at liberty: for I seek thy precepts.

19:119:046 I will speak of thy testimonies also before kings, and will not be ashamed.

19:119:047 And I will delight myself in thy commandments, which I have loved.

19:119:048 My hands also will I lift up unto thy commandments, which I have loved; and I will meditate in thy statutes.

19:119:049 Remember the word unto thy servant, upon which thou hast caused me to hope.

19:119:050 This is my comfort in my affliction: for thy word hath quickened me.

19:119:051 The proud have had me greatly in derision: yet have I not declined from thy law.

19:119:052 I remembered thy judgments of old, O LORD; and have comforted myself.

19:119:053 Horror hath taken hold upon me because of the wicked that forsake thy law.

19:119:054 Thy statutes have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimage.

19:119:055 I have remembered thy name, O LORD, in the night, and have kept thy law.

19:119:056 This I had, because I kept thy precepts.

19:119:057 Thou art my portion, O LORD: I have said that I would keep thy words.

19:119:058 I intreated thy favour with my whole heart: be merciful unto me according to thy word.

19:119:059 I thought on my ways, and turned my feet unto thy testimonies.

19:119:060 I made haste, and delayed not to keep thy commandments.

19:119:061 The bands of the wicked have robbed me: but I have not forgotten thy law.

19:119:062 At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto thee because of thy righteous judgments.

19:119:063 I am a companion of all them that fear thee, and of them that keep thy precepts.

19:119:064 The earth, O LORD, is full of thy mercy: teach me thy statutes.

19:119:065 Thou hast dealt well with thy servant, O LORD, according unto thy word.

19:119:066 Teach me good judgment and knowledge: for I have believed thy commandments.

19:119:067 Before I was afflicted I went astray: but now have I kept thy word.

19:119:068 Thou art good, and doest good; teach me thy statutes.

19:119:069 The proud have forged a lie against me: but I will keep thy precepts with my whole heart.

19:119:070 Their heart is as fat as grease; but I delight in thy law.

19:119:071 It is good for me that I have been afflicted; that I might learn thy statutes.

19:119:072 The law of thy mouth is better unto me than thousands of gold and silver.

19:119:073 Thy hands have made me and fashioned me: give me understanding, that I may learn thy commandments.

19:119:074 They that fear thee will be glad when they see me; because I have hoped in thy word.

19:119:075 I know, O LORD, that thy judgments are right, and that thou in faithfulness hast afflicted me.

19:119:076 Let, I pray thee, thy merciful kindness be for my comfort, according to thy word unto thy servant.

19:119:077 Let thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may live: for thy law is my delight.

19:119:078 Let the proud be ashamed; for they dealt perversely with me without a cause: but I will meditate in thy precepts.

19:119:079 Let those that fear thee turn unto me, and those that have known thy testimonies.

19:119:080 Let my heart be sound in thy statutes; that I be not ashamed.

19:119:081 My soul fainteth for thy salvation: but I hope in thy word.

19:119:082 Mine eyes fail for thy word, saying, When wilt thou comfort me?

19:119:083 For I am become like a bottle in the smoke; yet do I not forget thy statutes.

19:119:084 How many are the days of thy servant? when wilt thou execute judgment on them that persecute me?

19:119:085 The proud have digged pits for me, which are not after thy law.

19:119:086 All thy commandments are faithful: they persecute me wrongfully; help thou me.

19:119:087 They had almost consumed me upon earth; but I forsook not thy precepts.

19:119:088 Quicken me after thy lovingkindness; so shall I keep the testimony of thy mouth.

19:119:089 For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.

19:119:090 Thy faithfulness is unto all generations: thou hast established the earth, and it abideth.

19:119:091 They continue this day according to thine ordinances: for all are thy servants.

19:119:092 Unless thy law had been my delights, I should then have perished in mine affliction.

19:119:093 I will never forget thy precepts: for with them thou hast quickened me.

19:119:094 I am thine, save me: for I have sought thy precepts.

19:119:095 The wicked have waited for me to destroy me: but I will consider thy testimonies.

19:119:096 I have seen an end of all perfection: but thy commandment is exceeding broad.

19:119:097 O how I love thy law! it is my meditation all the day.

19:119:098 Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser than mine enemies: for they are ever with me.

19:119:099 I have more understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies are my meditation.

19:119:100 I understand more than the ancients, because I keep thy precepts.

19:119:101 I have refrained my feet from every evil way, that I might keep thy word.

19:119:102 I have not departed from thy judgments: for thou hast taught me.

19:119:103 How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth!

19:119:104 Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way.

19:119:105 Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

19:119:106 I have sworn, and I will perform it, that I will keep thy righteous judgments.

19:119:107 I am afflicted very much: quicken me, O LORD, according unto thy word.

19:119:108 Accept, I beseech thee, the freewill offerings of my mouth, O LORD, and teach me thy judgments.

19:119:109 My soul is continually in my hand: yet do I not forget thy law.

19:119:110 The wicked have laid a snare for me: yet I erred not from thy precepts.

19:119:111 Thy testimonies have I taken as an heritage for ever: for they are the rejoicing of my heart.

19:119:112 I have inclined mine heart to perform thy statutes alway, even unto the end.

19:119:113 I hate vain thoughts: but thy law do I love.

19:119:114 Thou art my hiding place and my shield: I hope in thy word.

19:119:115 Depart from me, ye evildoers: for I will keep the commandments of my God.

19:119:116 Uphold me according unto thy word, that I may live: and let me not be ashamed of my hope.

19:119:117 Hold thou me up, and I shall be safe: and I will have respect unto thy statutes continually.

19:119:118 Thou hast trodden down all them that err from thy statutes: for their deceit is falsehood.

19:119:119 Thou puttest away all the wicked of the earth like dross: therefore I love thy testimonies.

19:119:120 My flesh trembleth for fear of thee; and I am afraid of thy judgments.

19:119:121 I have done judgment and justice: leave me not to mine oppressors.

19:119:122 Be surety for thy servant for good: let not the proud oppress me.

19:119:123 Mine eyes fail for thy salvation, and for the word of thy righteousness.

19:119:124 Deal with thy servant according unto thy mercy, and teach me thy statutes.

19:119:125 I am thy servant; give me understanding, that I may know thy testimonies.

19:119:126 It is time for thee, LORD, to work: for they have made void thy law.

19:119:127 Therefore I love thy commandments above gold; yea, above fine gold.

19:119:128 Therefore I esteem all thy precepts concerning all things to be right; and I hate every false way.

19:119:129 Thy testimonies are wonderful: therefore doth my soul keep them.

19:119:130 The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.

19:119:131 I opened my mouth, and panted: for I longed for thy commandments.

19:119:132 Look thou upon me, and be merciful unto me, as thou usest to do unto those that love thy name.

19:119:133 Order my steps in thy word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me.

19:119:134 Deliver me from the oppression of man: so will I keep thy precepts.

19:119:135 Make thy face to shine upon thy servant; and teach me thy statutes.

19:119:136 Rivers of waters run down mine eyes, because they keep not thy law.

19:119:137 Righteous art thou, O LORD, and upright are thy judgments.

19:119:138 Thy testimonies that thou hast commanded are righteous and very faithful.

19:119:139 My zeal hath consumed me, because mine enemies have forgotten thy words.

19:119:140 Thy word is very pure: therefore thy servant loveth it.

19:119:141 I am small and despised: yet do not I forget thy precepts.

19:119:142 Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and thy law is the truth.

19:119:143 Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me: yet thy commandments are my delights.

19:119:144 The righteousness of thy testimonies is everlasting: give me understanding, and I shall live.

19:119:145 I cried with my whole heart; hear me, O LORD: I will keep thy statutes.

19:119:146 I cried unto thee; save me, and I shall keep thy testimonies.

19:119:147 I prevented the dawning of the morning, and cried: I hoped in thy word.

19:119:148 Mine eyes prevent the night watches, that I might meditate in thy word.

19:119:149 Hear my voice according unto thy lovingkindness: O LORD, quicken me according to thy judgment.

19:119:150 They draw nigh that follow after mischief: they are far from thy law.

19:119:151 Thou art near, O LORD; and all thy commandments are truth.

19:119:152 Concerning thy testimonies, I have known of old that thou hast founded them for ever.

19:119:153 Consider mine affliction, and deliver me: for I do not forget thy law.

19:119:154 Plead my cause, and deliver me: quicken me according to thy word.

19:119:155 Salvation is far from the wicked: for they seek not thy statutes.

19:119:156 Great are thy tender mercies, O LORD: quicken me according to thy judgments.

19:119:157 Many are my persecutors and mine enemies; yet do I not decline from thy testimonies.

19:119:158 I beheld the transgressors, and was grieved; because they kept not thy word.

19:119:159 Consider how I love thy precepts: quicken me, O LORD, according to thy lovingkindness.

19:119:160 Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever.

19:119:161 Princes have persecuted me without a cause: but my heart standeth in awe of thy word.

19:119:162 I rejoice at thy word, as one that findeth great spoil.

19:119:163 I hate and abhor lying: but thy law do I love.

19:119:164 Seven times a day do I praise thee because of thy righteous judgments.

19:119:165 Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.

19:119:166 LORD, I have hoped for thy salvation, and done thy commandments.

19:119:167 My soul hath kept thy testimonies; and I love them exceedingly.

19:119:168 I have kept thy precepts and thy testimonies: for all my ways are before thee.

19:119:169 Let my cry come near before thee, O LORD: give me understanding according to thy word.

19:119:170 Let my supplication come before thee: deliver me according to thy word.

19:119:171 My lips shall utter praise, when thou hast taught me thy statutes.

19:119:172 My tongue shall speak of thy word: for all thy commandments are righteousness.

19:119:173 Let thine hand help me; for I have chosen thy precepts.

19:119:174 I have longed for thy salvation, O LORD; and thy law is my delight.

19:119:175 Let my soul live, and it shall praise thee; and let thy judgments help me.

19:119:176 I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek thy servant; for I do not forget thy commandments.

19:120:001 In my distress I cried unto the LORD, and he heard me.

19:120:002 Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips, and from a deceitful tongue.

19:120:003 What shall be given unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue?

19:120:004 Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.

19:120:005 Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech, that I dwell in the tents of Kedar!

19:120:006 My soul hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace.

19:120:007 I am for peace: but when I speak, they are for war.

19:121:001 I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.

19:121:002 My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.

19:121:003 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.

19:121:004 Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.

19:121:005 The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.

19:121:006 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.

19:121:007 The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.

19:121:008 The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.

19:122:001 I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD.

19:122:002 Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.

19:122:003 Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact together:

19:122:004 Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, unto the testimony of Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the LORD.

19:122:005 For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David.

19:122:006 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.

19:122:007 Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.

19:122:008 For my brethren and companions' sakes, I will now say, Peace be within thee.

19:122:009 Because of the house of the LORD our God I will seek thy good.

19:123:001 Unto thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heavens.

19:123:002 Behold, as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their masters, and as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; so our eyes wait upon the LORD our God, until that he have mercy upon us.

19:123:003 Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us: for we are exceedingly filled with contempt.

19:123:004 Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at ease, and with the contempt of the proud.

19:124:001 If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, now may Israel say;

19:124:002 If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us:

19:124:003 Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us:

19:124:004 Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:

19:124:005 Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.

19:124:006 Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.

19:124:007 Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped.

19:124:008 Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.

19:125:001 They that trust in the LORD shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever.

19:125:002 As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the LORD is round about his people from henceforth even for ever.

19:125:003 For the rod of the wicked shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands unto iniquity.

19:125:004 Do good, O LORD, unto those that be good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.

19:125:005 As for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, the LORD shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity: but peace shall be upon Israel.

19:126:001 When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream.

19:126:002 Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The LORD hath done great things for them.

19:126:003 The LORD hath done great things for us; whereof we are glad.

19:126:004 Turn again our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the south.

19:126:005 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

19:126:006 He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.

19:127:001 Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.

19:127:002 It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved sleep.

19:127:003 Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.

19:127:004 As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.

19:127:005 Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.

19:128:001 Blessed is every one that feareth the LORD; that walketh in his ways.

19:128:002 For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.

19:128:003 Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy children like olive plants round about thy table.

19:128:004 Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the LORD.

19:128:005 The LORD shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.

19:128:006 Yea, thou shalt see thy children's children, and peace upon Israel.

19:129:001 Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth, may Israel now say:

19:129:002 Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth: yet they have not prevailed against me.

19:129:003 The plowers plowed upon my back: they made long their furrows.

19:129:004 The LORD is righteous: he hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked.

19:129:005 Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion.

19:129:006 Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withereth afore it groweth up:

19:129:007 Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand; nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom.

19:129:008 Neither do they which go by say, The blessing of the LORD be upon you: we bless you in the name of the LORD.

19:130:001 Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O LORD.

19:130:002 Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.

19:130:003 If thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?

19:130:004 But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.

19:130:005 I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.

19:130:006 My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning.

19:130:007 Let Israel hope in the LORD: for with the LORD there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.

19:130:008 And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.

19:131:001 Lord, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty: neither do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too high for me.

19:131:002 Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his mother: my soul is even as a weaned child.

19:131:003 Let Israel hope in the LORD from henceforth and for ever.

19:132:001 Lord, remember David, and all his afflictions:

19:132:002 How he sware unto the LORD, and vowed unto the mighty God of Jacob;

19:132:003 Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house, nor go up into my bed;

19:132:004 I will not give sleep to mine eyes, or slumber to mine eyelids,

19:132:005 Until I find out a place for the LORD, an habitation for the mighty God of Jacob.

19:132:006 Lo, we heard of it at Ephratah: we found it in the fields of the wood.

19:132:007 We will go into his tabernacles: we will worship at his footstool.

19:132:008 Arise, O LORD, into thy rest; thou, and the ark of thy strength.

19:132:009 Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness; and let thy saints shout for joy.

19:132:010 For thy servant David's sake turn not away the face of thine anointed.

19:132:011 The LORD hath sworn in truth unto David; he will not turn from it; Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne.

19:132:012 If thy children will keep my covenant and my testimony that I shall teach them, their children shall also sit upon thy throne for evermore.

19:132:013 For the LORD hath chosen Zion; he hath desired it for his habitation.

19:132:014 This is my rest for ever: here will I dwell; for I have desired it.

19:132:015 I will abundantly bless her provision: I will satisfy her poor with bread.

19:132:016 I will also clothe her priests with salvation: and her saints shall shout aloud for joy.

19:132:017 There will I make the horn of David to bud: I have ordained a lamp for mine anointed.

19:132:018 His enemies will I clothe with shame: but upon himself shall his crown flourish.

19:133:001 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!

19:133:002 It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;

19:133:003 As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.

19:134:001 Behold, bless ye the LORD, all ye servants of the LORD, which by night stand in the house of the LORD.

19:134:002 Lift up your hands in the sanctuary, and bless the LORD.

19:134:003 The LORD that made heaven and earth bless thee out of Zion.

19:135:001 Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the name of the LORD; praise him, O ye servants of the LORD.

19:135:002 Ye that stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God.

19:135:003 Praise the LORD; for the LORD is good: sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant.

19:135:004 For the LORD hath chosen Jacob unto himself, and Israel for his peculiar treasure.

19:135:005 For I know that the LORD is great, and that our Lord is above all gods.

19:135:006 Whatsoever the LORD pleased, that did he in heaven, and in earth, in the seas, and all deep places.

19:135:007 He causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; he maketh lightnings for the rain; he bringeth the wind out of his treasuries.

19:135:008 Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast.

19:135:009 Who sent tokens and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants.

19:135:010 Who smote great nations, and slew mighty kings;

19:135:011 Sihon king of the Amorites, and Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan:

19:135:012 And gave their land for an heritage, an heritage unto Israel his people.

19:135:013 Thy name, O LORD, endureth for ever; and thy memorial, O LORD, throughout all generations.

19:135:014 For the LORD will judge his people, and he will repent himself concerning his servants.

19:135:015 The idols of the heathen are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.

19:135:016 They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not;

19:135:017 They have ears, but they hear not; neither is there any breath in their mouths.

19:135:018 They that make them are like unto them: so is every one that trusteth in them.

19:135:019 Bless the LORD, O house of Israel: bless the LORD, O house of Aaron:

19:135:020 Bless the LORD, O house of Levi: ye that fear the LORD, bless the LORD.

19:135:021 Blessed be the LORD out of Zion, which dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise ye the LORD.

19:136:001 O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.

19:136:002 O give thanks unto the God of gods: for his mercy endureth for ever.

19:136:003 O give thanks to the Lord of lords: for his mercy endureth for ever.

19:136:004 To him who alone doeth great wonders: for his mercy endureth for ever.

19:136:005 To him that by wisdom made the heavens: for his mercy endureth for ever.

19:136:006 To him that stretched out the earth above the waters: for his mercy endureth for ever.

19:136:007 To him that made great lights: for his mercy endureth for ever:

19:136:008 The sun to rule by day: for his mercy endureth for ever:

19:136:009 The moon and stars to rule by night: for his mercy endureth for ever.

19:136:010 To him that smote Egypt in their firstborn: for his mercy endureth for ever:

19:136:011 And brought out Israel from among them: for his mercy endureth for ever:

19:136:012 With a strong hand, and with a stretched out arm: for his mercy endureth for ever.

19:136:013 To him which divided the Red sea into parts: for his mercy endureth for ever:

19:136:014 And made Israel to pass through the midst of it: for his mercy endureth for ever:

19:136:015 But overthrew Pharaoh and his host in the Red sea: for his mercy endureth for ever.

19:136:016 To him which led his people through the wilderness: for his mercy endureth for ever.

19:136:017 To him which smote great kings: for his mercy endureth for ever:

19:136:018 And slew famous kings: for his mercy endureth for ever:

19:136:019 Sihon king of the Amorites: for his mercy endureth for ever:

19:136:020 And Og the king of Bashan: for his mercy endureth for ever:

19:136:021 And gave their land for an heritage: for his mercy endureth for ever:

19:136:022 Even an heritage unto Israel his servant: for his mercy endureth for ever.

19:136:023 Who remembered us in our low estate: for his mercy endureth for ever:

19:136:024 And hath redeemed us from our enemies: for his mercy endureth for ever.

19:136:025 Who giveth food to all flesh: for his mercy endureth for ever.

19:136:026 O give thanks unto the God of heaven: for his mercy endureth for ever.

19:137:001 By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion.

19:137:002 We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof.

19:137:003 For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song; and they that wasted us required of us mirth, saying, Sing us one of the songs of Zion.

19:137:004 How shall we sing the LORD's song in a strange land?

19:137:005 If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning.

19:137:006 If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.

19:137:007 Remember, O LORD, the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem; who said, Rase it, rase it, even to the foundation thereof.

19:137:008 O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy shall he be, that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us.

19:137:009 Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.

19:138:001 I will praise thee with my whole heart: before the gods will I sing praise unto thee.

19:138:002 I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.

19:138:003 In the day when I cried thou answeredst me, and strengthenedst me with strength in my soul.

19:138:004 All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O LORD, when they hear the words of thy mouth.

19:138:005 Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the LORD: for great is the glory of the LORD.

19:138:006 Though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the proud he knoweth afar off.

19:138:007 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me.

19:138:008 The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands.

19:139:001 O lord, thou hast searched me, and known me.

19:139:002 Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off.

19:139:003 Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.

19:139:004 For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether.

19:139:005 Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.

19:139:006 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.

19:139:007 Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?

19:139:008 If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there.

19:139:009 If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;

19:139:010 Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.

19:139:011 If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me.

19:139:012 Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee.

19:139:013 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb.

19:139:014 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.

19:139:015 My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.

19:139:016 Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.

19:139:017 How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!

19:139:018 If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee.

19:139:019 Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloody men.

19:139:020 For they speak against thee wickedly, and thine enemies take thy name in vain.

19:139:021 Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee?

19:139:022 I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.

19:139:023 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:

19:139:024 And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.

19:140:001 Deliver me, O LORD, from the evil man: preserve me from the violent man;

19:140:002 Which imagine mischiefs in their heart; continually are they gathered together for war.

19:140:003 They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent; adders' poison is under their lips. Selah.

19:140:004 Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked; preserve me from the violent man; who have purposed to overthrow my goings.

19:140:005 The proud have hid a snare for me, and cords; they have spread a net by the wayside; they have set gins for me. Selah.

19:140:006 I said unto the LORD, Thou art my God: hear the voice of my supplications, O LORD.

19:140:007 O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation, thou hast covered my head in the day of battle.

19:140:008 Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked: further not his wicked device; lest they exalt themselves. Selah.

19:140:009 As for the head of those that compass me about, let the mischief of their own lips cover them.

19:140:010 Let burning coals fall upon them: let them be cast into the fire; into deep pits, that they rise not up again.

19:140:011 Let not an evil speaker be established in the earth: evil shall hunt the violent man to overthrow him.

19:140:012 I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted, and the right of the poor.

19:140:013 Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto thy name: the upright shall dwell in thy presence.

19:141:001 Lord, I cry unto thee: make haste unto me; give ear unto my voice, when I cry unto thee.

19:141:002 Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.

19:141:003 Set a watch, O LORD, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.

19:141:004 Incline not my heart to any evil thing, to practise wicked works with men that work iniquity: and let me not eat of their dainties.

19:141:005 Let the righteous smite me; it shall be a kindness: and let him reprove me; it shall be an excellent oil, which shall not break my head: for yet my prayer also shall be in their calamities.

19:141:006 When their judges are overthrown in stony places, they shall hear my words; for they are sweet.

19:141:007 Our bones are scattered at the grave's mouth, as when one cutteth and cleaveth wood upon the earth.

19:141:008 But mine eyes are unto thee, O GOD the Lord: in thee is my trust; leave not my soul destitute.

19:141:009 Keep me from the snares which they have laid for me, and the gins of the workers of iniquity.

19:141:010 Let the wicked fall into their own nets, whilst that I withal escape.

19:142:001 I cried unto the LORD with my voice; with my voice unto the LORD did I make my supplication.

19:142:002 I poured out my complaint before him; I shewed before him my trouble.

19:142:003 When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, then thou knewest my path. In the way wherein I walked have they privily laid a snare for me.

19:142:004 I looked on my right hand, and beheld, but there was no man that would know me: refuge failed me; no man cared for my soul.

19:142:005 I cried unto thee, O LORD: I said, Thou art my refuge and my portion in the land of the living.

19:142:006 Attend unto my cry; for I am brought very low: deliver me from my persecutors; for they are stronger than I.

19:142:007 Bring my soul out of prison, that I may praise thy name: the righteous shall compass me about; for thou shalt deal bountifully with me.

19:143:001 Hear my prayer, O LORD, give ear to my supplications: in thy faithfulness answer me, and in thy righteousness.

19:143:002 And enter not into judgment with thy servant: for in thy sight shall no man living be justified.

19:143:003 For the enemy hath persecuted my soul; he hath smitten my life down to the ground; he hath made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have been long dead.

19:143:004 Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me; my heart within me is desolate.

19:143:005 I remember the days of old; I meditate on all thy works; I muse on the work of thy hands.

19:143:006 I stretch forth my hands unto thee: my soul thirsteth after thee, as a thirsty land. Selah.

19:143:007 Hear me speedily, O LORD: my spirit faileth: hide not thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.

19:143:008 Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning; for in thee do I trust: cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul unto thee.

19:143:009 Deliver me, O LORD, from mine enemies: I flee unto thee to hide me.

19:143:010 Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: thy spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness.

19:143:011 Quicken me, O LORD, for thy name's sake: for thy righteousness' sake bring my soul out of trouble.

19:143:012 And of thy mercy cut off mine enemies, and destroy all them that afflict my soul: for I am thy servant.

19:144:001 Blessed be the LORD my strength which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight:

19:144:002 My goodness, and my fortress; my high tower, and my deliverer; my shield, and he in whom I trust; who subdueth my people under me.

19:144:003 LORD, what is man, that thou takest knowledge of him! or the son of man, that thou makest account of him!

19:144:004 Man is like to vanity: his days are as a shadow that passeth away.

19:144:005 Bow thy heavens, O LORD, and come down: touch the mountains, and they shall smoke.

19:144:006 Cast forth lightning, and scatter them: shoot out thine arrows, and destroy them.

19:144:007 Send thine hand from above; rid me, and deliver me out of great waters, from the hand of strange children;

19:144:008 Whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood.

19:144:009 I will sing a new song unto thee, O God: upon a psaltery and an instrument of ten strings will I sing praises unto thee.

19:144:010 It is he that giveth salvation unto kings: who delivereth David his servant from the hurtful sword.

19:144:011 Rid me, and deliver me from the hand of strange children, whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood:

19:144:012 That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; that our daughters may be as corner stones, polished after the similitude of a palace:

19:144:013 That our garners may be full, affording all manner of store: that our sheep may bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our streets:

19:144:014 That our oxen may be strong to labour; that there be no breaking in, nor going out; that there be no complaining in our streets.

19:144:015 Happy is that people, that is in such a case: yea, happy is that people, whose God is the LORD.

19:145:001 I will extol thee, my God, O king; and I will bless thy name for ever and ever.

19:145:002 Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.

19:145:003 Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.

19:145:004 One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts.

19:145:005 I will speak of the glorious honour of thy majesty, and of thy wondrous works.

19:145:006 And men shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and I will declare thy greatness.

19:145:007 They shall abundantly utter the memory of thy great goodness, and shall sing of thy righteousness.

19:145:008 The LORD is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy.

19:145:009 The LORD is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.

19:145:010 All thy works shall praise thee, O LORD; and thy saints shall bless thee.

19:145:011 They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom, and talk of thy power;

19:145:012 To make known to the sons of men his mighty acts, and the glorious majesty of his kingdom.

19:145:013 Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and thy dominion endureth throughout all generations.

19:145:014 The LORD upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all those that be bowed down.

19:145:015 The eyes of all wait upon thee; and thou givest them their meat in due season.

19:145:016 Thou openest thine hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing.

19:145:017 The LORD is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works.

19:145:018 The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth.

19:145:019 He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear their cry, and will save them.

19:145:020 The LORD preserveth all them that love him: but all the wicked will he destroy.

19:145:021 My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD: and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever.

19:146:001 Praise ye the LORD. Praise the LORD, O my soul.

19:146:002 While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.

19:146:003 Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.

19:146:004 His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.

19:146:005 Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God:

19:146:006 Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth truth for ever:

19:146:007 Which executeth judgment for the oppressed: which giveth food to the hungry. The LORD looseth the prisoners:

19:146:008 The LORD openeth the eyes of the blind: the LORD raiseth them that are bowed down: the LORD loveth the righteous:

19:146:009 The LORD preserveth the strangers; he relieveth the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down.

19:146:010 The LORD shall reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise ye the LORD.

19:147:001 Praise ye the LORD: for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for it is pleasant; and praise is comely.

19:147:002 The LORD doth build up Jerusalem: he gathereth together the outcasts of Israel.

19:147:003 He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.

19:147:004 He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.

19:147:005 Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.

19:147:006 The LORD lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground.

19:147:007 Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God:

19:147:008 Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.

19:147:009 He giveth to the beast his food, and to the young ravens which cry.

19:147:010 He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: he taketh not pleasure in the legs of a man.

19:147:011 The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy.

19:147:012 Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Zion.

19:147:013 For he hath strengthened the bars of thy gates; he hath blessed thy children within thee.

19:147:014 He maketh peace in thy borders, and filleth thee with the finest of the wheat.

19:147:015 He sendeth forth his commandment upon earth: his word runneth very swiftly.

19:147:016 He giveth snow like wool: he scattereth the hoarfrost like ashes.

19:147:017 He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who can stand before his cold?

19:147:018 He sendeth out his word, and melteth them: he causeth his wind to blow, and the waters flow.

19:147:019 He sheweth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel.

19:147:020 He hath not dealt so with any nation: and as for his judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye the LORD.

19:148:001 Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights.

19:148:002 Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts.

19:148:003 Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light.

19:148:004 Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.

19:148:005 Let them praise the name of the LORD: for he commanded, and they were created.

19:148:006 He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass.

19:148:007 Praise the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:

19:148:008 Fire, and hail; snow, and vapours; stormy wind fulfilling his word:

19:148:009 Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:

19:148:010 Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl:

19:148:011 Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth:

19:148:012 Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:
