The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.

Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.

Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.

Like as a lion that is greedy of his prey, and as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.

He maketh my feet like hinds' feet, and setteth me upon my high places.

I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.

My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.

{A Psalm of David.} Unto thee will I cry, O LORD my rock; be not silent to me: lest, if thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down into the pit.

He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn.

I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel.

All my bones shall say, LORD, who is like unto thee, which deliverest the poor from him that is too strong for him, yea, the poor and the needy from him that spoileth him?

Thy righteousness is like the great mountains; thy judgments are a great deep: O LORD, thou preservest man and beast.

For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.

I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree.

When thou with rebukes dost correct man for iniquity, thou makest his beauty to consume away like a moth: surely every man is vanity. Selah.

Thou hast given us like sheep appointed for meat; and hast scattered us among the heathen.

Nevertheless man being in honour abideth not: he is like the beasts that perish.

Like sheep they are laid in the grave; death shall feed on them; and the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning; and their beauty shall consume in the grave from their dwelling.

Man that is in honour, and understandeth not, is like the beasts that perish.

Thy tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp rasor, working deceitfully.

But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God: I trust in the mercy of God for ever and ever.

And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at rest.

Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: they are like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear;

As a snail which melteth, let every one of them pass away: like the untimely birth of a woman, that they may not see the sun.

They return at evening: they make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.

And at evening let them return; and let them make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.

Who whet their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows to shoot their arrows, even bitter words:

Thy righteousness also, O God, is very high, who hast done great things: O God, who is like unto thee!

He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass: as showers that water the earth.

There shall be an handful of corn in the earth upon the top of the mountains; the fruit thereof shall shake like Lebanon: and they of the city shall flourish like grass of the earth.

They are not in trouble as other men; neither are they plagued like other men.

Thou leddest thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.

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

He rained flesh also upon them as dust, and feathered fowls like as the sand of the sea:

But made his own people to go forth like sheep, and guided them in the wilderness like a flock.

But turned back, and dealt unfaithfully like their fathers: they were turned aside like a deceitful bow.

Their blood have they shed like water round about Jerusalem; and there was none to bury them.

How long, LORD? wilt thou be angry for ever? shall thy jealousy burn like fire?

{To the chief Musician upon ShoshannimEduth, A Psalm of Asaph.} Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; thou that dwellest between the cherubims, shine forth.

The hills were covered with the shadow of it, and the boughs thereof were like the goodly cedars.

But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.

Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:

O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.

Among the gods there is none like unto thee, O Lord; neither are there any works like unto thy works.

Free among the dead, like the slain that lie in the grave, whom thou rememberest no more: and they are cut off from thy hand.

They came round about me daily like water; they compassed me about together.

O LORD God of hosts, who is a strong LORD like unto thee? or to thy faithfulness round about thee?

The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

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

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.

I am like a pelican of the wilderness: I am like an owl of the desert.

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

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

They shall perish, but thou shalt endure: yea, all of them shall wax old like a garment; as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall be changed:

Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.

Like as a father pitieth his children, so the LORD pitieth them that fear him.

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

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

They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wits' end.

Yet setteth he the poor on high from affliction, and maketh him families like a flock.

As he clothed himself with cursing like as with his garment, so let it come into his bowels like water, and like oil into his bones.

I am gone like the shadow when it declineth: I am tossed up and down as the locust.

Who is like unto the LORD our God, who dwelleth on high,

The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs.

Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams; and ye little hills, like lambs?

They that make them are like unto them; so is every one that trusteth in them.

They compassed me about like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns: for in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.

For I am become like a bottle in the smoke; yet do I not forget thy statutes.

Thou puttest away all the wicked of the earth like dross: therefore I love thy testimonies.

I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek thy servant; for I do not forget thy commandments.

{A Song of degrees.} When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream.

Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy children like olive plants round about thy table.

It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;

They that make them are like unto them: so is every one that trusteth in them.

They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent; adders' poison is under their lips. Selah.

Hear me speedily, O LORD: my spirit faileth: hide not thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.

Man is like to vanity: his days are as a shadow that passeth away.

He giveth snow like wool: he scattereth the hoarfrost like ashes.

He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who can stand before his cold?
