He is wise in heart, and mighty in strength: who has hardened himself against him, and has prospered?

For he stretches out his hand against God, and strengthens himself against the Almighty.

Upright men shall be astonished at this, and the innocent shall stir up himself against the hypocrite.

He tears himself in his anger: shall the earth be forsaken for you? and shall the rock be removed out of its place?

Can a man be profitable unto God, as he that is wise may be profitable unto himself?

On the left hand, where he does work, but I cannot behold him: he hides himself on the right hand, that I cannot see him:

Will he delight himself in the Almighty? will he always call upon God?

Then was kindled the wrath of Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the family of Ram: against Job was his wrath aroused, because he justified himself rather than God.

For he has said, It profits a man nothing that he should delight himself with God.

If he should set his heart upon man, if he should gather unto himself his spirit and his breath;

When he raises up himself, the mighty are afraid: because of his crashings they are beside themselves.

But know that the LORD has set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD will hear when I call unto him.

He has also prepared for himself the instruments of death; he makes ready his arrows against the persecutors.

He devises mischief upon his bed; he sets himself in a way that is not good; he abhors not evil.

I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree.

And the heavens shall declare his righteousness: for God is judge himself. Selah.

Lo, this is the man that made not God his strength; but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness.

[To the Chief Musician on neginoth. A maschil, a Psalm of David, when the Ziphites came and said to Saul, Does not David hide himself with us?] Save me, O God, by your name, and judge me by your strength.

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:

Rebuke the company of spearmen, the multitude of the bulls, with the calves of the people, till every one submits himself with pieces of silver: scatter you the people that delight in war.

And of Zion it shall be said, This and that man was born in her: and the highest himself shall establish her.

The LORD reigns, he is clothed with majesty; the LORD is clothed with strength, with which he has girded himself: the world also is established, that it cannot be moved.

As he clothed himself with cursing as with his garment, so let it come into his body like water, and like oil into his bones.

Who humbles himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth!

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

For the LORD has chosen Jacob unto himself, and Israel for his peculiar treasure.

His own iniquities shall take the wicked himself, and he shall be held with the cords of his sins.

There is one that makes himself rich, yet has nothing: there is one that makes himself poor, yet has great riches.

The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways: and a good man shall be satisfied from above himself.

The LORD has made all things for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil.

He that labors labors for himself; for his mouth craves it of him.

A man that has friends must show himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticks closer than a brother.

Whosoever stops his ears at the cry of the poor, he also shall cry himself, but shall not be heard.

A prudent man foresees the evil, and hides himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished.

Debate your cause with your neighbor himself; and disclose not a secret to another:

Whosoever boasts about himself of a gift not given is like clouds and wind without rain.

He that hates disguises it with his lips, and lays up deceit within himself;

A prudent man foresees the evil, and hides himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished.

Whosoever causes the righteous to go astray in an evil way, he shall fall himself into his own pit: but the upright shall have good things in possession.

The rod and reproof give wisdom: but a child left to himself brings his mother to shame.

Moreover the profit of the earth is for all: the king himself is served from the field.

My beloved is like a gazelle or a young stag: behold, he stands behind our wall, he looks forth through the windows, showing himself through the lattice.

King Solomon made himself a chariot of the wood of Lebanon.

I opened to my beloved; but my beloved had withdrawn himself, and was gone: my soul failed when he spoke: I sought him, but I could not find him; I called him, but he gave me no answer.

And man bows down, and the great man humbles himself: therefore forgive them not.

In that day a man shall cast away his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which they made, each for himself to worship, to the moles and to the bats;

And the people shall be oppressed, everyone by another, and everyone by his neighbor: the child shall behave himself proudly against the elder, and the base against the honorable.

Neither let the son of the foreigner, that has joined himself to the LORD, speak, saying, The LORD has utterly separated me from his people: neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree.

Yea, truth fails; and he that departs from evil makes himself a prey: and the LORD saw it, and it displeased him that there was no justice.

I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation, he has covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decks himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.

That led them by the right hand of Moses with his glorious arm, dividing the water before them, to make himself an everlasting name?

And there is none that calls upon your name, that stirs up himself to take hold of you: for you have hid your face from us, and have consumed us, because of our iniquities.

For every one of the house of Israel, or of the stranger that sojourns in Israel, who separates himself from me, and sets up his idols in his heart, and puts the stumblingblock of his iniquity before his face, and comes to a prophet to inquire of him concerning me; I the LORD will answer him by myself:

Son of man, write you the name of the day, even of this same day: the king of Babylon set himself against Jerusalem this same day.

And upon that day shall the prince prepare for himself and for all the people of the land a bullock for a sin offering.

But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king's food, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself.
