For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.

Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart could wish.

Therefore his people return hither: and waters of a full cup are wrung out to them.

When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me;

But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, that I may declare all thy works.

But now they break down the carved work of it at once with axes and hammers.

Why withdrawest thou thy hand, even thy right hand? pluck it out of thy bosom.

The earth and all its inhabitants are dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. Selah.

For in the hand of the LORD there is a cup, and the wine is red; it is full of mixture, and he poureth out of the same: but the dregs of it all the wicked of the earth shall wring them out, and drink them.

At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, both the chariot and horse are cast into a dead sleep.

The clouds poured out water: the skies sent out a sound: thy arrows also went abroad.

He cleaved the rocks in the wilderness, and gave them drink as out of the great depths.

He brought streams also out of the rock, and caused waters to run down like rivers.

And they sinned yet more against him by provoking the Most High in the wilderness.

Behold, he smote the rock, that the waters gushed out, and the streams overflowed; can he give bread also? can he provide flesh for his people?

And had rained down manna upon them to eat, and had given them of the corn of heaven.

Man ate angels' food: he sent them food to the full.

And he let it fall in the midst of their camp, around their habitations.

So they ate, and were well filled: for he gave them their own desire;

They were not estranged from their desire: but while their meat was yet in their mouths,

He cast out the heathen also before them, and divided them an inheritance by line, and made the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tents.

Yet they tempted and provoked the most high God, and kept not his testimonies:

Then the Lord awaked as one out of sleep, and like a mighty man that shouteth by reason of wine.

Pour out thy wrath upon the heathen that have not known thee, and upon the kingdoms that have not called upon thy name.

Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt: thou hast cast out the heathen, and planted it.

Thou preparedst room before it, and didst cause it to take deep root, and it filled the land.

The hills were covered with the shade of it, and its boughs were like the goodly cedars.

She sent out her boughs to the sea, and her branches to the river.

The boar from the wood doth waste it, and the wild beast of the field doth devour it.

It is burnt with fire, it is cut down: they perish at the rebuke of thy countenance.

This he ordained in Joseph for a testimony, when he went out through the land of Egypt: where I heard a language that I understood not.

Thou calledst in trouble, and I delivered thee; I answered thee in the secret place of thunder: I proved thee at the waters of Meribah. Selah.

I am the LORD thy God who brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.

He would have fed them also with the finest of the wheat: and with honey out of the rock I should have satisfied thee.

They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course.

Do to them as to the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:

Who perished at En-dor: they became as dung for the earth.

As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;

My soul longeth, and even fainteth for the courts of the LORD: my heart and my flesh crieth out for the living God.

Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well; the rain also filleth the pools.

Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? wilt thou draw out thy anger to all generations?

I will hear what God the LORD will speak: for he will speak peace to his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn again to folly.

Truth shall spring out of the earth; and righteousness shall look down from heaven.

Show me a token for good; that they who hate me may see it, and be ashamed: because thou, LORD, hast helped me, and comforted me.

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

My eye mourneth by reason of affliction: LORD, I have called daily upon thee, I have stretched out my hands to thee.

The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine: as for the world, and the fullness of it, thou hast founded them.

Then thou didst speak in vision to thy holy one, and say, I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people.

My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that hath gone out of my lips.

It shall be established for ever as the moon, and as a faithful witness in heaven. Selah.

Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned his crown by casting it to the ground.

What man is he that liveth, and shall not see death? shall he deliver his soul from the hand of the grave? Selah.

For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.

In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth; in the evening it is cut down, and withereth.

The days of our years are seventy years; and if by reason of strength they are eighty years, yet is their strength labor and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.

And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us: and establish thou the work of our hands upon us; yes, the work of our hands establish thou it.

Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noon-day.

A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

A Psalm or Song for the sabbath day. It is a good thing to give thanks to the LORD, and to sing praises to thy name, O Most High.

When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is that they shall be destroyed for ever:

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

They slay the widow and the stranger, and murder the fatherless.

Yet they say, The LORD will not see, neither will the God of Jacob regard it.

Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O LORD, and teachest him out of thy law;

But judgment shall return to righteousness: and all the upright in heart shall follow it.

The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land.

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:

Say among the heathen that the LORD reigneth: the world also shall be established that it shall not be moved: he will judge the people righteously.

Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; let the sea roar, and the fullness of it.

Let the field be joyful, and all that is in it: then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice before the LORD:

The hills melted like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.

Ye that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.

Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.

Let the sea roar, and the fullness of it, the world, and they that dwell therein.

Let them praise thy great and terrible name; for it is holy.

Exalt ye the LORD our God, and worship at his footstool; for he is holy.

Exalt the LORD our God, and worship at his holy hill; for the LORD our God is holy.

Know ye that the LORD he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

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

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 to thee.

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

For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and its place shall know it no more.

Who coverest thyself with light as with a garment: who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain:

Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever.

Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a garment: the waters stood above the mountains.

At thy rebuke they fled; at the voice of thy thunder they hasted away.

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;

Thou makest darkness, and it is night: in which all the beasts of the forest do creep forth.

So is this great and wide sea, in which are creeping animals innumerable, both small and great beasts.

These wait all upon thee; that thou mayest give them their food in due season.

He looketh on the earth, and it trembleth: he toucheth the hills, and they smoke.

Let 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.

When they were a few men in number; yes, very few, and strangers in it.

To bind his princes at his pleasure; and teach his senators wisdom.

He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against his word.

And ate up all the herbs in their land, and devoured the fruit of their ground.

He opened the rock, and the waters gushed out; they ran in the dry places like a river.

Blessed are they that keep judgment, and he that doeth righteousness at all times.

Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt; they remembered not the multitude of thy mercies; but provoked him at the sea, even at the Red sea.

He rebuked the Red sea also, and it was dried up: so he led them through the depths, as through the wilderness.
