O God, the proud have risen up against me, and a company of violent men have sought after my soul, and have not set thee before them.

I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon as among those who know me. Behold, Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia: This [man] was born there.

Yea, of Zion it shall be said, this and that man was born in her, and the Most High himself will establish her.

LORD will count when he writes up the peoples: This [man] was born there. Selah.

I am reckoned with those who go down into the pit. I am as a man who has no help,

Thou have broken Rahab in pieces, as a wounded man. Thou have scattered thine enemies with the arm of thy strength.

Then thou spoke in a vision to thy sanctified, and said, I have laid help upon a mighty [man]. I have exalted a chosen [man] out of the people.

It shall be established forever as the moon, and [as] the faithful witness in the sky. Selah.

O remember how short my time is, for what vanity thou have created all the sons of men!

What man is he who shall live and not see death, who shall deliver his soul from the power of Sheol? Selah.

Thou turn man to destruction, and say, Return, ye sons of men.

A brutish man knows not, nor does a fool understand this.

A righteous man shall flourish like the palm tree. He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

Men who are planted in the house of LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God.

He who chastises the nations, shall he not correct, [even] he who teaches man knowledge?

LORD knows the thoughts of man, that they are vanity.

Blessed is the man whom thou chasten, O LORD, and teach out of thy law,

that thou may give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit is dug for a wicked man.

They gather themselves together against the soul of a righteous man, and condemn innocent blood.

Light is sown for the righteous man, and gladness for the upright in heart.

that men may declare the name of LORD in Zion, and his praise in Jerusalem,

As for man, his days are as grass, as a flower of the field, so he flourishes.

He causes the grass to grow for the cattle, and herbage for the service of man, that he may bring forth food out of the earth,

and wine that makes glad the heart of man, [and] oil to make his face to shine, and bread that strengthens man's heart.

He appointed the moon for seasons. The sun knows his going down.

Man goes forth to his work and to his labor until the evening.

when they were but a few men in number, yea, very few, and sojourners in it.

He allowed no man to do them wrong. Yea, he reproved kings for their sakes,

[saying], Touch not my anointed men, and do my prophets no harm.

He sent a man before them. Joseph was sold for a servant.

And a fire was kindled in their company. The flame burned up the wicked [men].

O that men would praise LORD for his loving kindness, and for his wonderful works to the sons of men!

O that men would praise LORD for his loving kindness, and for his wonderful works to the sons of men!

O that men would praise LORD for his loving kindness, and for his wonderful works to the sons of men!

these [men] see the works of LORD, and his wonders in the deep.

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

O that men would praise LORD for his loving kindness, and for his wonderful works to the sons of men!

Yet he sets a needy man on high from affliction, and makes [him] families like a flock.

Gilead is mine. Manasseh is mine. Ephraim also is the defense of my head. Judah is my scepter.

Give us help against the adversary, for vain is the help of man.

Set thou a wicked man over him, and let an adversary stand at his right hand.

because he did not remember to show kindness, but persecuted the poor and needy man, and the broken in heart, to kill.

Praise ye LORD. Blessed is the man who fears LORD, who delights greatly in his commandments.

It is well with the man who deals graciously and lends. He shall maintain his cause in judgment,

for he shall never be moved. A righteous man shall be had in everlasting remembrance.

A wicked man shall see it, and be grieved. He shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away. The desire of wicked men shall perish.

He raises up a poor man out of the dust, and lifts up a needy man from the dunghill,

Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.

The heavens are the heavens of LORD, but the earth he has given to the sons of men.

I said in my haste, All men are liars.

LORD is on my side, I will not fear. What can man do to me?

It is better to take refuge in LORD than to put confidence in man.

With what shall a young man cleanse his way? By taking heed according to thy word.

Redeem me from the oppression of man, so I will observe thy precepts.

The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.

if it had not been LORD who was on our side when men rose up against us,

As arrows in the hand of a mighty man, so are the sons of youth.

Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them. They shall not be put to shame when they speak with their enemies in the gate.

Behold, thus shall the man be blessed who fears LORD.

who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast,

The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.

the moon and stars to rule by night, for his loving kindness [is] forever,

Surely thou will kill the wicked, O God. Depart from me therefore, ye bloodthirsty men.

Deliver me, O LORD, from the evil man. Preserve me from the violent man,

[and men] who devise mischievous things in their heart. They gather themselves continually together for war.

Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of a wicked man. Preserve me from violent men, who have purposed to thrust aside my steps.

Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked man. Do not further his evil device. They exalt themselves. Selah.

An evil speaker shall not be established in the earth. Evil shall hunt the violent man to overthrow him.

I know that LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted man, and justice for the needy.

Incline not my heart to any evil thing, to practice deeds of wickedness with men who work iniquity. And let me not eat of their dainties.

Let a righteous man smite me, [as] a kindness. And let him reprove me, [as] oil upon the head. Let not my head refuse it. For even in their wickedness my prayer shall continue.

Look on [my] right hand, and see, for there is no man who knows me. Refuge has failed me. No man cares for my soul.

And enter not into judgment with thy servant. For in thy sight no man living is righteous.

LORD, what is man, that thou take knowledge of him? Or the son of man, that thou make account of him?

Man is like vanity. His days are as a shadow that passes away.

And men shall speak of the might of thy fearful acts, and I will declare thy greatness.

to make known to the sons of men his mighty acts, and the glory of the majesty of his kingdom.

Put not your trust in rulers, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.

He does not delight in the strength of the horse. He takes no pleasure in the legs of a man.

Praise ye him, sun and moon. Praise him, all ye stars of light.

both young men and virgins, old men and sons.

to bind their kings with chains, and their ranking men with fetters of iron,

to give prudence to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion,

that the wise man may hear, and increase in learning, and that the man of understanding may attain to sound counsels,

Because I have called, and ye have refused, I have stretched out my hand, and no man has regarded,

to deliver thee from the way of evil, from the men who speak perverse things,

that thou may walk in the way of good men, and keep the paths of the righteous.

so thou shall find favor and good understanding in the sight of God and man.

Happy is the man who finds wisdom, and the man who gets understanding.

Do not strive with a man without cause, if he has done thee no harm.

Do not envy thou the man of violence, and choose none of his ways.

For the perverse man is an abomination to LORD, but his friendship is with the upright.

The curse of LORD is in the house of a wicked man, but he blesses the habitation of the righteous.

Enter not into the path of the wicked, and walk not in the way of evil men.

For the ways of man are before the eyes of LORD, and he makes level all his paths.

His own iniquities shall take a wicked man, and he shall be held with the cords of his sin.

so thy poverty shall come as a robber, and thy want as an armed man.

A worthless person, a man of iniquity, is he who walks with a perverse mouth,

Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned?

Or can a man walk upon hot coals, and his feet not be scorched?
