Many say, Who shall cause us to see good? Lift up upon us the light of thy countenance, O Jehovah.

If I have rewarded evil to him that was at peace with me; (indeed I have freed him that without cause oppressed me;)

For thou hast maintained my right and my cause. Thou sittest on the throne, judging righteously.

Yea, none that wait on thee shall be ashamed: they shall be ashamed that deal treacherously without cause.

That I may cause the voice of thanksgiving to be heard, and declare all thy marvellous works.

For without cause have they hidden for me their net in a pit; without cause they have digged it for my soul.

Let not them that are wrongfully mine enemies rejoice over me; let them not wink with the eye that hate me without cause.

Stir up thyself, and awake for my right, for my cause, my God and Lord!

Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation; deliver me from the deceitful and unrighteous man.

Thou, by thy hand, didst dispossess the nations, but them thou didst plant; thou didst afflict the peoples, but them didst thou cause to spread out.

Thou didst cause men to ride over our head; we went through fire and through water: but thou hast brought us out into abundance.

{To the chief Musician. On stringed instruments. A Psalm: a Song.} God be gracious unto us, and bless us, and cause his face to shine upon us; Selah,

They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head; they that would destroy me, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty: then I restored that which I took not away.

Rise up, O God, plead thine own cause: remember how the foolish man reproacheth thee all the day;

Thou didst cause judgment to be heard from the heavens; the earth feared, and was still,

O God, restore us; and cause thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.

Restore us, O God of hosts; and cause thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.

Restore us, O Jehovah, God of hosts; cause thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.

Bring us back, O God of our salvation, and cause thine indignation toward us to cease.

And with words of hatred have they encompassed me; and they fight against me without a cause.

It is well with the man that is gracious and lendeth; he will sustain his cause in judgment.

Plead my cause, and redeem me: quicken me according to thy word.

SHIN. Princes have persecuted me without a cause; but my heart standeth in awe of thy word.

There will I cause the horn of David to bud forth; I have ordained a lamp for mine anointed.

I know that Jehovah will maintain the cause of the afflicted one, the right of the needy.

Cause me to hear thy loving-kindness in the morning, for in thee do I confide; make me to know the way wherein I should walk, for unto thee do I lift up my soul.
