Will he esteem thy riches? no, not gold, nor all the forces of strength.

He directeth it under the whole heaven, and his lightning to the ends of the earth.

After it a voice roareth: he thundereth with the voice of his excellence; and he will not stay them when his voice is heard.

He sealeth up the hand of every man; that all men may know his work.

Shall it be told him that I speak? If a man shall speak, surely he will be swallowed up.

Touching the Almighty, we cannot find him out: he is excellent in power, and in judgment, and in abundance of justice: he will not afflict.

Gird up now thy loins like a man; for I will demand of thee, and answer thou me.

When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

Hast thou perceived the breadth of the earth? declare if thou knowest it all.

Will the unicorn be willing to serve thee, or abide by thy crib?

Canst thou bind the unicorn with his band in the furrow? or will he harrow the valleys after thee?

Wilt thou believe him, that he will bring home thy seed, and gather it into thy barn?

Behold, I am vile; what shall I answer thee? I will lay my hand upon my mouth.

Once have I spoken; but I will not answer: yes, twice; but I will proceed no further.

Therefore take to you now seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer for yourselves a burnt-offering; and my servant Job shall pray for you: for him will I accept: lest I deal with you after your folly, in that ye have not spoken of me the thing which is right, like my servant Job.

Then came there to him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and ate bread with him in his house: and they condoled with him, and comforted him over all the evil that the LORD had brought upon him: every man also gave him a piece of money, and every one an ear-ring of gold.

And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.

I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said to me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.

Ask of me, and I will give thee the heathen for thy inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.

Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.

Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all my enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly.

O ye sons of men, how long will ye turn my glory into shame? how long will ye love vanity, and seek after falsehood? Selah.

I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep; for thou only, LORD, makest me dwell in safety.

Hearken to the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for to thee will I pray.

My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct my prayer to thee, and will look up.

The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.

Thou shalt destroy them that speak falsehood: the LORD will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.

But as for me, I will come into thy house in the multitude of thy mercy: and in thy fear will I worship towards thy holy temple.

But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.

For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who will give thee thanks?

I am weary with my groaning; all the night I make my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears.

My eye is consumed because of grief; it groweth old because of all my enemies.

Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for the LORD hath heard the voice of my weeping.

The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will receive my prayer.

Let all my enemies be ashamed and greatly disquieted: let them return and be suddenly ashamed.

Shiggaion of David, which he sang to the LORD, concerning the words of Cush the Benjaminite. O LORD my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me:

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

I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high.

To the chief Musician upon Gittith, A Psalm of David. O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens.

All sheep and oxen, yes, and the beasts of the field;

O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!

To the chief Musician upon Muthlabben, A Psalm of David. I will praise thee, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will show forth all thy wonderful works.

And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.

That I may show forth all thy praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion: I will rejoice in thy salvation.

The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.

The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts.

His ways are always grievous; thy judgments are far above out of his sight: as for all his enemies, he puffeth at them.

He hath said in his heart, God hath forgotten: he hideth his face; he will never see it.

The LORD shall cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things:

Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us?

Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another god: their drink-offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take their names into my lips.

I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel: my reins also instruct me in the night season.

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, the servant of the LORD, who spoke to the LORD the words of this song in the day that the LORD delivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul: And he said, I will love thee, O LORD, my strength.

The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.

I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from my enemies.

For all his judgments were before me, and I did not put away his statutes from me.

For thou wilt light my candle: the LORD my God will enlighten my darkness.

For by thee I have run through a troop; and by my God have I leaped over a wall.

As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the LORD is tried: he is a buckler to all those that trust in him.

Therefore will I give thanks to thee, O LORD, among the heathen, and sing praises to thy name.

Their line hath gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,

Remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt-sacrifice. Selah.

Grant thee according to thy own heart, and fulfill all thy counsel.

We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners: the LORD fulfill all thy petitions.

Now I know that the LORD saveth his anointed; he will hear him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.

Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the LORD our God.

Thy hand shall find out all thy enemies: thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee.

Be thou exalted, LORD, in thy own strength: so will we sing and praise thy power.

All they that see me deride me: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying,

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.

I may number all my bones: they look and stare upon me.

I will declare thy name to my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.

Ye that fear the LORD, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel.

My praise shall be of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.

All the ends of the world shall remember and turn to the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.

All they that are fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul.

Yes, though I walk through the valley of the shades of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of my enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
