Psalm 147:6

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

The LORD lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground.

He leads the humble in justice,
And He teaches the humble His way.

But the humble will inherit the land
And will delight themselves in abundant prosperity.

The Lord

sustains all who fall

And raises up all who are bowed down.

The Lord

opens the eyes of the blind;

The Lord

raises up those who are bowed down;

The Lord

loves the righteous;

For the Lord

takes pleasure in His people;

He will beautify the afflicted ones with salvation.

“He raises the poor from the dust,

He lifts the needy from the ash heap

To make them sit with nobles,

And inherit a seat of honor;

For the pillars of the earth are the Lord’s,

And He set the world on them.

Seek the Lord,

All you humble of the earth
Who have carried out His ordinances;

Seek righteousness, seek humility.

Perhaps you will be hidden
In the day of the Lord’s anger.

“Blessed are the gentle, for they shall inherit the earth.

Humble yourselves in the presence of the Lord, and He will exalt you.

but let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the imperishable quality of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is precious in the sight of God.

Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you at the proper time,

But You, O God, will bring them down to the

pit of destruction;

Men of bloodshed and deceit will not live out half their days.

But I will trust in You.

Surely You set them in slippery places;
You cast them down to

destruction.

The Lord

protects the strangers;

supports the fatherless and the widow,

But He thwarts the way of the wicked.

For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell and committed them to pits of darkness, reserved for judgment;
