For mine enemies speak against me; and they that lay wait for my soul take their counsel together,

Let them be confounded and perish that are against my soul; let them be covered with shame and dishonour, that seek to do me evil.

My lips would fain sing praises unto thee; and so would my soul whom thou hast delivered.

O deliver not the soul of thy turtle dove unto the beasts, and forget not the congregation of the poor forever.

In the time of my trouble I sought the LORD, I held up mine hands to him in the night season, for my soul refused all other comfort.

My soul hath a desire and longing to enter into the courts of the LORD; my heart and my flesh rejoice in the living God.

Preserve thou my soul, for I am holy; my God, help thy servant that putteth his trust in thee.

Comfort the soul of thy servant, for unto thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul.

For great is thy mercy toward me; and thou hast delivered my soul from the nethermost hell.

O God, the proud are risen against me; and the congregation of the mighty seeketh after my soul, and have not set thee before their eyes.

For my soul is full of trouble, and my life draweth nigh unto hell.

LORD, why abhorrest thou my soul, and hidest thou thy face from me?

What man is he that liveth, and shall not see death? May a man deliver his own soul from the hand of hell? Selah.

If the LORD had not helped me, my soul had almost been put to silence.

In the multitude of the sorrows that I had in my heart, thy comforts have refreshed my soul.

They gather them together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood.

{Of David} Praise the LORD, O my soul, and all that is within me praise his holy name.

Praise the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits.

O speak good of the LORD, all ye works of his, in all places of his dominion; praise thou the LORD, O my soul.

Praise the LORD, O my soul. O LORD my God, thou art become exceedingly glorious; thou art clothed with majesty and honour.

As for the sinners, they shall be consumed out of the earth, and the ungodly shall come to an end. But praise thou the LORD, O my soul: Praise the everlasting! Hallelujah!

And he gave them their desire, but sent leanness withal into their soul.

Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.

For he satisfieth the greedy soul, and filleth the hungry soul with good.

Their soul abhorred all manner of meat, and they were even hard at death's door.

They are carried up to the heaven, and down again to the deep; their soul melteth away in the trouble.

Let it thus happen from the LORD unto mine enemies, and to those that speak evil against my soul.

for he standeth at the righthand of the poor, to save him from such as condemn his soul.

I shall find trouble and heaviness, and I will call upon the Name of the LORD, "O LORD, I beseech thee, deliver my soul."

Turn again then unto thy rest, O my soul, for the LORD hath given thee thy desire.

And why? Thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.

My soul breaketh out for the very fervent desire that it hath always unto thy judgments.

{Daleth} My soul cleaveth unto the dust; O quicken thou me, according to thy word.

My soul melteth away for very heaviness; comfort thou me according unto thy word.

{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 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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

He that is full, abhorreth a honeycomb; but unto him that is hungry, every sour thing is sweet.

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:

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.

Woe be unto them that call evil good, and good evil: which make darkness light, and light darkness, that make sour sweet, and sweet sour.

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.

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.
