{Khaf} My soul longeth for thy salvation, for my good hope is in thy word.

My soul is always in my hand, yet do I not forget thy law.

{Pe} Thy testimonies are wonderful; therefore doth my soul keep them.

My zeal hath even consumed me, because mine enemies have forgotten thy words.

My soul keepeth thy testimonies, and loveth them exceedingly.

O let my soul live, and praise thee, that thy judgments may help me.

Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips, and from a deceitful tongue!

My soul hath long dwelt among them that be enemies unto peace.

The LORD preserveth thee from all evil; yea, it is the LORD that keepeth thy soul.

Our soul is filled with the scornful reproof of the wealthy, and with the despitefulness of the proud.

Yea, the waters had drowned us, the stream had gone over our soul.

The deep waters of the proud had gone even unto our soul.

Our soul is escaped, even as a bird out of the snare of the fowler; the snare is broken and we are delivered.

I look for the LORD; my soul doth wait for him, and in his word is my trust.

My soul fleeth unto the LORD before the morning watch, I say, before the morning watch.

But I refrain my soul and keep it low, like as a child that is weaned from his mother; Yea, my soul is even as a weaned child.

He smote divers nations, and slew mighty kings -

Yea, and slew mighty kings! For his mercy endureth forever.

When I call upon thee, thou hearest me, and endowest my soul with much strength.

I will give thanks unto thee, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; marvelous are thy works, and that my soul knoweth right well!

Wilt thou not slay the wicked, O God, that the bloodthirsty might depart from me?

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

The proud have laid a snare for me, and spread a net abroad with cords, yea and set traps in my way. Selah.

Let not the ungodly have his desire, O LORD; let not his mischievous imagination prosper, lest they be too proud. Selah.

But mine eyes look unto thee, O LORD God; in thee is my trust. O cast not out my soul.

I look upon my righthand, and see there is no man that will know me. I have no place to flee unto, no man careth for my soul.

Bring my soul out of prison, that I may give thanks unto thy name - which thing if thou wilt grant me, then shall the righteous resort unto my company.

For the enemy persecuteth my soul; he smiteth my life down to the ground; he layeth me in the darkness, as the dead men of the world.

I stretch forth my hands unto thee; my soul gaspeth unto thee as a thirsty land. Selah.

O let me hear thy loving-kindness betimes in the morning; for in thee is my trust. Show thou me the way that I should walk in; for I lift up my soul unto thee.

Quicken me, O LORD, for thy name's sake; and for thy righteousness' sake bring my soul out of trouble.

And of thy goodness scatter mine enemies abroad, and destroy all them that vex my soul; for I am thy servant.

{Praise the Everlasting} Praise the LORD, O my soul.

Let us swallow them up like the hell, let us devour them quick and whole, as those that go down into the pit.

Yea, they themselves lay wait one for another's blood, and one of them would slay another.

for the turning away of the unwise shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall be their own destruction.

When wisdom entereth into thine heart, and thy soul delighteth in knowledge;

So shall it be life unto thy soul, and grace unto thy mouth.

Men do not utterly despise a thief, that stealeth to satisfy his soul, when he is hungry:

But whoso committeth adultery with a woman, he is a fool: and destroyeth his own soul.

But whoso offendeth against me, hurteth his own soul. All they that hate me, are the lovers of death."

The LORD will not let the soul of the righteous suffer hunger; but he putteth the ungodly from his desire.

The sluggard would fain have, and cannot get his desire; but the soul of the diligent shall have plenty.

When a desire is brought to pass, it delighteth the soul; but fools count it abomination to depart from evil.

He that refuseth to be reformed, despiseth his own soul; but he that submitteth himself to correction, is wise.

The path of the righteous escheweth evil; and whoso looketh well to his ways, keepeth his own soul.

A troublous soul disquieteth herself; for her own mouth hath brought her thereto.

A fool's mouth is his own destruction, and his lips are the snare for his own soul.

Where no discretion is, there the soul is not well; and whoso is swift on foot, stumbleth hastily.

He that is wise loveth his own soul; and whoso hath understanding, shall prosper.

Slothfulness bringeth sleep; and an idle soul shall suffer hunger.

Whoso keepeth the commandment, keepeth his own soul; but he that regardeth not his way, shall die.

Chasten thy son while there is hope; but let not thy soul be moved to slay him.

The king ought to be feared as the roaring of a lion; whoso provoketh him unto anger, offendeth against his own soul.

The soul of the ungodly wisheth evil; and hath no pity upon his neighbour.

Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue; the same keepeth his soul from troubles.

Spears and snares are in the way of the froward; but he that will keep his soul, let him flee from such.

lest thou learn his ways, and receive hurt unto thy soul.

Thou smitest him with the rod; but thou deliverest his soul from hell.

Labour for to get the truth, sell not away wisdom, nurture and understanding;

If thou wilt say, "I knew not of it"; Thinkest thou that he which made the hearts, doth not consider it? And that he which regardeth thy soul, seeth it not? Shall not he recompense every man according to his works?

Even so shall the knowledge of wisdom be unto thy soul, as soon as thou hast gotten it. And there is good hope; yea, thy hope shall not be in vain.

A good report out of a far country, is like cold water to a thirsty soul.

Like as the bird, and the swallow take their flight and flee here and there; so the curse that is given in vain, shall not light upon a man.

The bloodthirsty hate the righteous, but the just seek his soul.

Whoso keepeth company with a thief, hateth his own soul; he heareth blasphemies, and telleth it not forth.

Is it not better then for a man to eat and drink, and his soul to be merry in his labour? Yea I saw that this also was a gift of God:

A time to slay, and a time to make whole; A time to break down, and a time to build up;

The sight of the eyes is better, then that the soul should so depart away. Howbeit, this is also a vain thing and a disquietness of mind.

Tell me, O thou whom my soul loveth, where thou feedest the sheep, where thou maketh the rest at the noon day: for why shall I be like him that goeth wrong about the flocks of thy companions?

By night in my bed I sought him, whom my soul loveth: yea, diligently sought I him, but I found him not.

I will get up, thought I, and go about the city, in the ways and in all the streets will I seek him whom my soul loveth: but when I sought him, I found him not.

The watchmen that go about the city found me, to whom I said: Saw ye not him whom my soul loveth?

So when I was a little past them, I found him whom my soul loveth. I have gotten hold upon him, and will not let him go, until I bring him into my mother's house, and in to her chamber that bare me.

O set me as a seal upon thine heart, and as a seal upon thine arm: for love is mighty as the death, and jealousy as the hell. Her coals are of fire, and a very flame of the LORD:

From the sole of the foot unto the head, there is no whole part in all your body: but all are wounds, botches, sores and stripes, which can neither be helped, bound up, mollified, nor eased with any ointment.

Now lay the witnesses together and seal the law with my disciples.

Yea, all the glory of his woods and fields shall be consumed with body and soul. As for himself, he shall be as one chased away.

and go over the fiord. Geba shall be their resting place; Ramah shall be afraid; Gibeah of Saul shall flee away.

But he shall judge the causes of the poor with righteousness, and shall rebuke with equity for the humble of the earth. And he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall slay the wicked.

But the poor shall feed of the best things, and the simple shall dwell in safety. Thy roots will I destroy with hunger, and it shall slay thy remnant.

Therefore, LORD, we have a respect unto the way of thy judgments; thy name and thy remembrance rejoice the soul.

My soul lusteth after thee all the night long, and my mind hasteth freely to thee. For as soon as thy judgment is known to the world, then the inhabiters of the earth learn righteousness.

In that day, the LORD with his heavy, great, and long sword shall visit Leviathan that fugitive serpent: even Leviathan that crooked serpent, and shall slay the dragon in the sea.

In conclusion: it shall be even as when a hungry man dreameth that he is eating, and when he awaketh his soul is empty; or as when a thirsty man dreameth that he is drinking, and when he awaketh he yet is faint, and his soul hath appetite. So is the multitude of all people that muster themselves against the hill of Zion.

For the glorious Majesty of the LORD shall there be present among us. In that place, where fair broad rivers and streams are, shall neither Galley row, nor great ship sail.

There are the cords so laid abroad, that they cannot be better; The mast set up of such a fashion, that no banner nor sail hangeth thereon; but there is dealt great spoil: yea, lame men run after the prey;

For the LORD is angry with all people, and his displeasure is kindled against all the multitude of them, to curse them and to slay them:

Thus the angel went forth, and slew of the Assyrians host, a hundred and eighty five thousand. And when men arose up early, at Jerusalem: Behold, all lay full of dead bodies.

Afterward it chanced, as he prayed in the temple of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer, his own sons, slew him with the sword, and fled into the land of Ararat. And Esarhaddon his son reigned after him.

Then chattered I like a swallow, and like a crane, and mourned as a dove. I lift up mine eyes to the height: 'O LORD,' say I, 'violence is done unto me, be thou surety for me.'

Behold now therefore, this is my servant whom I will keep to myself: mine elect; In whom my soul shall be pacified. I will give him my spirit, that he may show forth judgment and equity among the Gentiles.

Therefore I either suspended, or slew the chiefest princes: I did curse Jacob, and gave Israel into reproof."

And will put it in their hand that trouble thee: which have spoken to thy soul, "Stoop down, that we may go over thee: make thy body even with the ground, and as the street to go upon."

And yet the LORD determined to bruise him with infirmities. His soul giving herself for trangression, he shall see seed of long continuance; and the will of the LORD shall prosper in his hand.

Because of the labour of his soul, he shall see and be satisfied. With his knowledge, he, being just, shall justify my servants: and that a great number. And he shall bear their iniquities.

Therefore I will give him his part in many, and the spoil of the rich he shall divide: because he gave his soul to death, and was numbered with the trespassers, and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for transgressors.

Wherefore do ye lay out your money, for the thing that feedeth not, and spend your labour about the thing that satisfieth you not? But hearken rather unto me, and ye shall eat of the best, and your soul shall have her pleasure in plenteousness.

Incline your ears, and come unto me, take heed, and your soul shall live. For I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.

Should it be such a manner of fast that I should chose? A day that a man should hurt his soul in? Or to bow down his head like a bulrush? Or to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? Shouldest thou call this a fast, and a day acceptable unto the LORD?
