He trusted on the LORD that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.

Let them not say in their hearts, Ah, so would we have it: let them not say, We have swallowed him up.

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.

If I were hungry, I would not tell thee: for the world is mine, and the fulness thereof.

For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: thou delightest not in burnt offering.

And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at rest.

Lo, then would I wander far off, and remain in the wilderness. Selah.

I would hasten my escape from the windy storm and tempest.

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:

{To the chief Musician upon Jonathelemrechokim, Michtam of David, when the Philistines took him in Gath.} Be merciful unto me, O God: for man would swallow me up; he fighting daily oppresseth me.

Mine enemies would daily swallow me up: for they be many that fight against me, O thou most High.

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.

They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of mine head: they that would destroy me, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty: then I restored that which I took not away.

But my people would not hearken to my voice; and Israel would none of me.

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.

Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!

Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!

Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!

Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!

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

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.
