- Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us,
according as we hope in thee. - I will bless the Lord at all times:
his praise shall continually be in my mouth. - I sought the Lord, and he heard me,
and delivered me from all my fears. - This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him,
and saved him out of all his troubles. - O taste and see that the Lord is good:
blessed is the man that trusteth in him. - The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger:
but they that seek the Lord shall not want any good thing. - Keep thy tongue from evil,
and thy lips from speaking guile. - Depart from evil, and do good;
seek peace, and pursue it. - The eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous,
and his ears are open unto their cry. - The face of the Lord is against them that do evil,
to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth. - The righteous cry, and the Lord heareth,
and delivereth them out of all their troubles.
The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart;
and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit. - Many are the afflictions of the righteous:
but the Lord delivereth him out of them all. - The Lord redeemeth the soul of his servants:
and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate. - Trust in the Lord, and do good;
so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. - Delight thyself also in the Lord:
and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. - Commit thy way unto the Lord;
trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.
And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light,
and thy judgment as the noonday. - 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. - A little that a righteous man hath
is better than the riches of many wicked.
For the arms of the wicked shall be broken:
but the Lord upholdeth the righteous. - The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again:
but the righteous sheweth mercy, and giveth. - The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord:
and he delighteth in his way. - 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. - Lord, all my desire is before thee;
and my groaning is not hid from thee. - 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. - I delight to do thy will, O my God:
yea, thy law is within my heart. - Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O Lord:
let thy lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me.
As the hart panteth after the water brooks,
so panteth my soul after thee, O God.Whither shall I go from thy spirit?
or whither shall I flee from thy presence?
If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there:
if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there.
