For Jehovah is knowing the way of the righteous, And the way of the wicked is lost!

Worship the Lord and serve Him with reverence [with awe-inspired fear and submissive wonder];
Rejoice [yet do so] with trembling.

Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.

Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.

For not for ever is the needy forgotten, The hope of the humble lost to the age.

Consider and hear me, O LORD my God: lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;

Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him; and those that trouble me rejoice when I am moved.

Lest mine enemy shall say, I prevailed against him; mine adversaries shall exult when I shall be moved.

Foreigners lose heart,
And come trembling out of their strongholds.

Keep thy servant also from presumptuous sins, lest they get dominion over me: so shall I be undefiled and innocent from the great offense.

{A Psalm of David.} 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.

For His anger is but for a moment,
His favor is for a lifetime;
Weeping may last for the night,
But a shout of joy comes in the morning.

Have mercy on me, for I am in distress! My eyes grow dim from suffering. I have lost my strength.

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.

The Lord watches over the blameless all their days,
and their inheritance will last forever.

Keep innocency, and take heed unto the thing that is right; for that shall bring a man peace at the last.

As for the transgressors, they shall perish together; and the ungodly shall be rooted out at the last.

For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.

For I said, Lest they shall rejoice over me: in the wavering of my foot they magnified against me.

My heart was hot within me, and while I was thus musing, the fire kindled, and at the last I spoke with my tongue,

But despite his assets, man will not last;
he is like the animals that perish.

Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver.

Slay them not, lest my people forget: scatter them by thy power; and bring them down, O Lord our shield.

You will prolong the king’s life [adding days upon days];
His years will be like many generations.

The singers go in front, the players of instruments last;
Between them the maidens playing on tambourines.

Rebuke the beasts [living] among the reeds [in Egypt],
The herd of bulls (the leaders) with the calves of the peoples;
Trampling underfoot the pieces of silver;
He has scattered the peoples who delight in war.

Rescue me out of the mire, lest I sink, Let me be rescued, From my haters, and, From abysses of waters:

Draw near to my soul and redeem it;
Ransom me because of my enemies [so that they do not delight in my distress].

There will be an abundance of grain in the soil on the top of the mountains;
Its fruit will wave like [the cedars of] Lebanon,
And those of the city will flourish like grass of the earth.

May his fame endure! May his dynasty last as long as the sun remains in the sky! May they use his name when they formulate their blessings! May all nations consider him to be favored by God!

Now as for me, my feet nearly stumbled, as I almost lost my step.

Their eyes swell with fatness, and they do even what they lust.

There are no signs for us to see.
There is no longer a prophet.
And none of us knows how long this will last.

For in the hand of the Lord is a cup, and the wine is red; it is well mixed, overflowing from his hand: he will make all the sinners of the earth take of it, even to the last drop.

Valiant men lie plundered, they have slept their last sleep. None of the men of war can lift their hands.

At the last, I came to this point, that I thought, "O why art thou so foolish? the righthand of the most highest can change all!"

And they tempted God in their heart by asking meat for their lust.

They were not estranged from their lust. But while their meat was yet in their mouths,

So I gave them up unto their own hearts' lust: and they walked in their own counsels.

Those who hate the Lord
would pretend submission to Him;
their doom would last forever.

They are ashamed and troubled for ever, Yea, they are confounded and lost.

O Lord, You have [at last] shown favor to Your land [of Canaan];
You have restored [from Babylon] the captives of Jacob (Israel).

For great is thy mercy toward me: and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell.

Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in darkness, in the deeps.

His dynasty will last forever and his throne will be like the sun before me.

How long, O Lord, will this last? Will you remain hidden forever? Will your anger continue to burn like fire?

Our lives last seventy years
or, if we are strong, eighty years.
Even the best of them are struggle and sorrow;
indeed, they pass quickly and we fly away.

Turn back toward us, O Lord! How long must this suffering last? Have pity on your servants!

Because, thou, hast made Yahweh, my refuge, - The Most High, thou last made thy dwelling-place,

They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

Mine eye also shall see his lust of mine enemies, and mine ear shall hear his desire of the wicked that arise up against me.

He holds in his hand the lowest parts of the earth and the mountain peaks belong to him.

May the glory of the LORD last forever; may the LORD rejoice in his works!

And they lust greatly in a wilderness, And try God in a desert.

Therefore he said that he would destroy them, had not Moses his chosen stood before him in the breach, to turn away his wrath, lest he should destroy them.

They lost their appetite for all food, and they drew near the gates of death.

My knees are failing through fasting, and my flesh hath lost its fatness;

He sent deliverance to his people; he ordained his covenant to last forever; his name is holy and awesome.

Yes, Lord! I am indeed your servant; I am your lowest slave. You saved me from death.

O turn away mine eyes, lest they behold vanity; and quicken thou me in thy way.

I learned long ago that you ordained your rules to last.

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

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

{A song of the stairs} Except the LORD build the house, their labour is but lost that build it. Except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.

It is but lost labour that ye rise up early, and take no rest, but eat the bread of carefulness; for so he giveth his beloved sleep.

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

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

O let not mine heart be inclined to any evil thing, to be minded as the ungodly or wicked men; lest I eat of such things as please them.

Look to the right hand and see, that there is none that, for me, hath regard, - Escape is lost to me, There is no one to care for my life.

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.

He set them in place to last forever and ever; he gave the command and will not rescind it.
