When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity flourish, it is that they may be destroyed for ever.

But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.

Mine eye also shall see my desire on mine enemies, and mine ears shall hear my desire of the wicked that rise up against me.

To shew that the LORD is upright: he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.

The Lord is King; he is clothed with glory; the Lord is clothed with strength; power is the cord of his robe; the world is fixed, so that it may not be moved.

Give your mind to my words, you who are without wisdom among the people; you foolish men, when will you be wise?

That You may grant him [power to calm himself and find] peace in the days of adversity,
Until the pit is dug for the wicked and ungodly.

Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?

Unless the LORD had been my help, my soul had almost dwelt in silence.

When I said, My foot slippeth; thy mercy, O LORD, held me up.

In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my soul.

But the LORD is my defence; and my God is the rock of my refuge.

When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work.

Forty years long was I grieved with this generation, and said, It is a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known my ways:

Unto whom I sware in my wrath that they should not enter into my rest.

Say among the nations, The Lord is King; yes, the world is ordered so that it may not be moved; he will be an upright judge of the peoples.

The LORD reigns! Let the earth rejoice! May many islands be glad!

Fire, before him, proceedeth, That it may consume, round about, his adversaries.

{A Psalm of David} My song shall be of mercy and judgment, yea unto thee, O LORD, will I sing.

I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when wilt thou come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.

I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.

A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person.

Whoever secretly slanders his neighbor, him I will silence;
The one who has a haughty look and a proud (arrogant) heart I will not tolerate.

Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me.

He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.

I will early destroy all the wicked of the land; that I may cut off all wicked doers from the city of the LORD.

{A Prayer of the afflicted, when he is overwhelmed, and poureth out his complaint before the LORD.} Hear my prayer, O LORD, and let my cry come unto thee.

Hide not thy face from me in the day when I am in trouble; incline thine ear unto me: in the day when I call answer me speedily.

For my days are consumed like smoke, and my bones are burned as an hearth.

My heart is smitten, and withered like grass; so that I forget to eat my bread.

By reason of the voice of my groaning my bones cleave to my skin.

Mine enemies reproach me all the day; and they that are mad against me are sworn against me.

For I have eaten ashes like bread, and mingled my drink with weeping,

Because of thine indignation and thy wrath: for thou hast lifted me up, and cast me down.

My days are like a shadow that declineth; and I am withered like grass.

That the nations may revere thy Name, O Yahweh, And all the kings of the earth, thy glory.

Let this be written for [the] next generation, so that a people [yet] to be created may praise Yah,

that he may hear the mournings of such as be in captivity, and deliver the children that are appointed unto death,

That men may declare the name of Jehovah in Zion, And his praise in Jerusalem;

He weakened my strength in the way; he shortened my days.

I said, O my God, take me not away in the midst of my days: thy years are throughout all generations.

May the descendants of your servants live securely, and may their children be established in your presence." Davidic

{A Psalm of David.} Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.

Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:

The Lord executes righteousness
And justice for all the oppressed.

Bless the LORD, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless the LORD, O my soul.

Bless the LORD, O my soul. O LORD my God, thou art very great; thou art clothed with honour and majesty.

He has made the earth strong on its bases, so that it may not be moved for ever and ever;

Thou hast set a bound that they may not pass over; that they turn not again to cover the earth.

that all the beasts of the field may have drink, and that the wild asses may quench their thirst.

He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth;

And, wine, may rejoice the heart of man, Making radiant his well-nourished face, - And, food, may, the heart of man, sustain.

Thou makest darkness, that it may be night, wherein all the beasts of the forest do move.

There is the great, wide sea, where there are living things, great and small, more than may be numbered.

They all wait for You
To give them their food in its appointed season.

May the glory of the Lord endure forever;
May the Lord rejoice and be glad in His works—

I will sing unto the LORD as long as I live: I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.

My meditation of him shall be sweet: I will be glad in the LORD.

Let the sinners be consumed out of the earth, and let the wicked be no more. Bless thou the LORD, O my soul. Praise ye the LORD.

Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.

That they may observe His statutes, And His laws may keep. Praise ye Jehovah!

Remember me, O LORD, with the favour that thou bearest unto thy people: O visit me with thy salvation;

That I may see the good of thy chosen, that I may rejoice in the gladness of thy nation, that I may glory with thine inheritance.

Thus changed they my glory, for the similitude of an ox that eateth grass.

Save us, O Lord our God,
And gather us from among the nations,
That we may give thanks to Your holy name
And glory in praising You.

May Yahweh, the God of Israel, be praised
from everlasting to everlasting.
Let all the people say, “Amen!”
Hallelujah!

And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, that they may prepare a city for habitation;

And sow the fields, and plant vineyards, which may yield fruits of increase.

Let whoever is wise observe these things, that they may comprehend the gracious love of the LORD. A song. A Davidic psalm.

{A Song or Psalm of David.} O God, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, even with my glory.

May you be exalted above the heavens, God, and your glory be over all the earth.

That thy beloved may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer me.

God has spoken in His holiness:
“I will rejoice, I will portion out Shechem [as I divide Canaan among My people],
And measure out the Valley of Succoth.

Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;

Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe; over Philistia will I triumph.

Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?

{To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.} Hold not thy peace, O God of my praise;

For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me: they have spoken against me with a lying tongue.

They compassed me about also with words of hatred; and fought against me without a cause.

For my love they are my adversaries: but I give myself unto prayer.

And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.

Appoint an evil person over him; may an accuser stand at his right side.

When he is judged, let the decision go against him; and may his prayer become sin.

May his days be few; may another take over his position.

May his children become fatherless, and his wife a widow.

May his children roam around begging, seeking food while driven far from their ruined homes.

May creditors seize all his possessions, and may foreigners loot the property he has acquired.

May no one extend gracious love to him, or show favor to his fatherless children.

May his descendants be eliminated, and their memory be erased from the next generation.

Let the Lord keep in mind the wrongdoing of his fathers; and may the sin of his mother have no forgiveness.

Let them be before the LORD continually, that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth.

Because he loved cursing, May it have come upon him, Because he delighted not in blessing, May it have kept far from him;

Because he clothed himself in cursing as his outer garment, therefore may it have entered like water into his inward part, and like oil into his bones;

May it be for him like a garment [in which] he wraps, and a belt {he continually wears}.

Let this be the reward of mine adversaries from the LORD, and of them that speak evil against my soul.

But do thou for me, O GOD the Lord, for thy name's sake: because thy mercy is good, deliver thou me.

For I am poor and needy, and my heart is wounded within me.

I am gone like the shade when it is stretched out: I am forced out of my place like a locust.

My knees are weak through fasting; and my flesh faileth of fatness.

I became also a reproach unto them: when they looked upon me they shaked their heads.
