'Head' in the Bible

But you, LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, and the one who lifts up my head.

The trouble he planned will return on his own head, and his violence will descend on his skull.

You rescued me from conflict with the people; you made me head of the nations. People who did not know me will serve me.

You go before him with wonderful blessings, and put a crown of fine gold on his head.

You prepare a table before me, even in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.

Now my head will be lifted up above my enemies, even those who surround me. I will sacrifice in his tent with shouts of joy; I will sing and make melodies to the LORD.

My iniquities loom over my head; like a cumbersome burden, they are too heavy for me.

Innumerable evils have surrounded me; my iniquities have overtaken me so that I cannot see. They are more in number than the hair on my head, and my courage has forsaken me.

Those who hate me without cause are more than the hairs of my head. My persecutors are mighty, and they want to destroy me. Must I be forced to return what I did not steal?

He will drink from a stream on the way, then hold his head high.

It is like precious oil on the head, descending to the beard even to Aaron's beard and flowing down to the edge of his robes.

LORD, my Lord, my strong deliverer, you have protected my head in the time of battle.

May those who surround me discover that the trouble they talk about falls on their own head!

Let one who is righteous strike me; It is an act of gracious love. Let him rebuke me, because it is oil for my head; do not let my head refuse it. My prayers continuously will be against their wicked activities.
