'Gather' in the Bible

Blessed [fortunate, prosperous, and favored by God] is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked [following their advice and example],Nor stand in the path of sinners,Nor sit [down to rest] in the seat of scoffers (ridiculers).

Do not sweep my soul away with sinners,Nor [sweep away] my life with men of bloodshed,

“Surely every man walks around like a shadow [in a charade];Surely they make an uproar for nothing;Each one builds up riches, not knowing who will receive them.

“Gather My godly ones to Me,Those who have made a covenant with Me by sacrifice.”

They attack, they hide and lurk,They watch my steps,As they have [expectantly] waited to take my life.

You give it to them, they gather it up;You open Your hand, they are filled and satisfied with good [things].

Save us, O Lord our God,And gather us from among the nations,That we may give thanks to Your holy nameAnd glory in praising You.

They devise evil things in their hearts;They continually [gather together and] stir up wars.
