And dig for it more than for hidden treasures,

Whose foundation is in the dust,
Who are crushed before the moth!

“I have not departed from the command of His lips;
I have treasured the words of His mouth more than my necessary food.

“Do you think this is according to justice?
Do you say, ‘My righteousness is more than God’s’?

What profit will I have, more than if I had sinned?’

And makes us wiser than the birds of the heavens?’

More than when their grain and new wine abound.

They are more desirable than gold, yes, than much fine gold;
Sweeter also than honey and the drippings of the honeycomb.

Yet a little while and the wicked man will be no more;
And you will look carefully for his place and he will not be there.

I sought for him, but he could not be found.

Before I depart and am no more.”

They are more numerous than the hairs of my head,
And my heart has failed me.

Falsehood more than speaking what is right. Selah.

That men may know that God rules in Jacob
To the ends of the earth. Selah.

Those who hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head;

And abundance of peace till the moon is no more.

More majestic than the mountains of prey.

Like the slain who lie in the grave,
Whom You remember no more,
And they are cut off from Your hand.

Than the mighty breakers of the sea,
The Lord on high is mighty.

And let the wicked be no more.

Praise the Lord!

For Your testimonies are my meditation.

I understand more than the aged,

More than the watchmen for the morning;
Indeed, more than the watchmen for the morning.

But the righteous has an everlasting foundation.

There is one who scatters, and yet increases all the more,
And there is one who withholds what is justly due, and yet it results only in want.

If the righteous will be rewarded in the earth,
How much more the wicked and the sinner!

The wicked are overthrown and are no more,
But the house of the righteous will stand.

And remember his trouble no more.

Let us hear no more about the Holy One of Israel.”

The Lord in the land of the living;

So His appearance was marred more than any man
And His form more than the sons of men.

And do not feel humiliated, for you will not be disgraced;

And all my ropes are broken;

And let us cut him off from the land of the living,
That his name be remembered no more.”
