The LORD shall bless you out of Zion: and you shall see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life.

The LORD is righteous: he has cut asunder the cords of the wicked.

How he swore unto the LORD, and vowed unto the mighty God of Jacob;

Until I find out a place for the LORD, a habitation for the mighty God of Jacob.

[A song of ascents. Of David.] Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!

You that stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God,

Praise the LORD; for the LORD is good: sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant.

O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endures forever.

O give thanks unto the God of gods: for his mercy endures forever.

O give thanks unto the God of heaven: for his mercy endures forever.

How precious also are your thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!

Surely you will slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, you bloody men.

Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:

I said unto the LORD, you are my God: hear the voice of my supplications, O LORD.

O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation, you have covered my head in the day of battle.

But my eyes are unto you, O GOD the Lord: in you is my trust; leave not my soul destitute.

Teach me to do your will; for you are my God: your Spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness.

And in your mercy cut off my enemies, and destroy all them that afflict my soul: for I am your servant.

I will sing a new song unto you, O God: upon a psaltery and an instrument of ten strings will I sing praises unto you.

Happy is that people, that is in such a state: yea, happy is that people, whose God is the LORD.

[A Psalm of praise of David.] I will extol you, my God, O king; and I will bless your name forever and ever.

The LORD is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.

While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.

Happy is he that has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God:

The LORD shall reign forever, even your God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise you the LORD.

Praise you the LORD: for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for it is pleasant; and praise is fitting.

Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God:

Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise your God, O Zion.

Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand;

Praise you the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power.

Then shall you understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God.

Then shall you understand righteousness, and justice, and equity; yea, every good path.

Who forsakes the companion of her youth, and forgets the covenant of her God.

That you may walk in the way of good men, and keep the paths of the righteous.

But the wicked shall be cut off from the earth, and the transgressors shall be rooted out of it.

So shall you find favor and good understanding in the sight of God and man.

Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, when it is in the power of your hand to do it.

For I give you good doctrine, forsake not my law.

Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither turn away from the words of my mouth.

Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all your getting get understanding.

A wound and dishonor shall he get; and his reproach shall not be wiped away.

The mouth of the just brings forth wisdom: but the perverse tongue shall be cut out.

The merciful man does good to his own soul: but he that is cruel troubles his own flesh.

The desire of the righteous is only good: but the expectation of the wicked is wrath.

He that diligently seeks good procures favor: but he that seeks evil, it shall come unto him.

A good man obtains favor of the LORD: but a man of wicked intentions will he condemn.

A man shall be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth: and the recompense of a man's hands shall be rendered unto him.

Heaviness in the heart of man makes him stoop: but a good word makes him glad.

A man shall eat good by the fruit of his mouth: but the soul of the transgressors feeds on violence.

Good understanding gives favor: but the way of transgressors is hard.

Evil pursues sinners: but to the righteous good shall be repaid.

A good man leaves an inheritance to his children's children: but the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just.

The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways: and a good man shall be satisfied from above himself.

The evil bow before the good; and the wicked at the gates of the righteous.

Do they not err that devise evil? but mercy and truth shall be to them that devise good.

The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.

A man has joy by the answer of his mouth: and a word spoken in due season, how good is it!

The light of the eyes rejoices the heart: and a good report makes the bones healthy.

How much better is it to get wisdom than gold! and to get understanding rather to be chosen than silver!

He that handles a matter wisely shall find good: and whosoever trusts in the LORD, happy is he.

A violent man entices his neighbor, and leads him into the way that is not good.

Whosoever rewards evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house.

Why is there a price in the hand of a fool to get wisdom, seeing he has no heart for it?

He who loves transgression loves strife: and he who exalts his gate seeks destruction.

He that has a crooked heart finds no good: and he that has a perverse tongue falls into calamity.

A merry heart does good like a medicine: but a broken spirit dries the bones.

Also, to punish the just is not good, nor to flog princes for their integrity.

It is not good to be partial to the wicked, or to overthrow the righteous in judgment.

Whosoever finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor of the LORD.

Also, that the soul be without knowledge is not good; and he that hastens with his feet sins.

He that gets wisdom loves his own soul: he that keeps understanding shall find good.

Every purpose is established by counsel: and with good advice wage war.

Diverse weights are an abomination unto the LORD; and a false balance is not good.

The righteous man wisely considers the house of the wicked: but God overthrows the wicked for their wickedness.

A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favor rather than silver and gold.

Rob not the poor, because he is poor: neither oppress the afflicted in the gate:

Lest you learn his ways, and get a snare to your soul.

For surely there is a future hope; and your expectation shall not be cut off.

Wisdom is too lofty for a fool: he opens not his mouth in the gate.

My son, eat honey because it is good; and the honeycomb, which is sweet to your taste:

So shall the knowledge of wisdom be unto your soul: when you have found it, then there shall be a reward, and your hope shall not be cut off.

These things also belong to the wise. It is not good to have partiality in judgment.

But to them that rebuke him shall be delight, and a good blessing shall come upon them.

It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honor of kings is to search out a matter.

As cold water is to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country.

It is not good to eat much honey: so for men to search out their own glory is not glory.

The great God that formed all things gives the fool his hire, and the transgressor his wages.

Whosoever causes the righteous to go astray in an evil way, he shall fall himself into his own pit: but the upright shall have good things in possession.

To show partiality is not good: because for a piece of bread that man will transgress.

The bloodthirsty hate the upright: but the just seek his good.

Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.

Lest I be full, and deny you, and say, Who is the LORD? or lest I be poor, and steal, and take the name of my God in vain.

A greyhound; a male goat also; and a king, against whom there is no rising up.

She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.

She perceives that her merchandise is good: her lamp goes not out by night.

And I gave my heart to seek and search out by wisdom concerning all things that are done under heaven: this severe burden has God given to the sons of man to be afflicted with.

I sought in my heart to give myself unto wine, yet acquainting my heart with wisdom; and to lay hold on folly, till I might see what was good for the sons of men, which they should do under heaven all the days of their life.

I got myself male and female servants, and had servants born in my house; also I had great possessions of great and small cattle more than all that were in Jerusalem before me:

I gathered for myself also silver and gold, and the special treasures of kings and of the provinces: I got men singers and women singers, the delights of the sons of men, and musical instruments of all sorts.

There is nothing better for a man, than that he should eat and drink, and that he should make his soul enjoy good in his labor. This also I saw, that it was from the hand of God.
