The Bible, King James version, Book 19: Psalms. Unknown
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.
