'Lord' in the Bible

The Lord swore an oath to David,a promise He will not abandon:“I will set one of your descendantson your throne.

For the Lord has chosen Zion;He has desired it for His home:

It is like the dew of Hermonfalling on the mountains of Zion.For there the Lord has appointed the blessing—life forevermore.

A song of ascents.Now praise the Lord,all you servants of the Lordwho stand in the Lord’s house at night!

Lift up your hands in the holy placeand praise the Lord!

May the Lord,Maker of heaven and earth,bless you from Zion.

Hallelujah!Praise the name of Yahweh.Give praise, you servants of Yahweh

who stand in the house of Yahweh,in the courts of the house of our God.

Praise Yahweh, for Yahweh is good;sing praise to His name, for it is delightful.

For Yahweh has chosen Jacob for Himself,Israel as His treasured possession.

For I know that Yahweh is great;our Lord is greater than all gods.

Yahweh does whatever He pleasesin heaven and on earth,in the seas and all the depths.

Yahweh, Your name endures forever,Your reputation, Yahweh,through all generations.

For Yahweh will vindicate His peopleand have compassion on His servants.

House of Israel, praise Yahweh!House of Aaron, praise Yahweh!

House of Levi, praise Yahweh!You who revere the Lord, praise the Lord!

May the Lord be praised from Zion;He dwells in Jerusalem.Hallelujah!

Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good.        His love is eternal.

Give thanks to the Lord of lords.        His love is eternal.

Remember, Lord, what the Edomites saidthat day at Jerusalem:“Destroy it! Destroy itdown to its foundations!”

All the kings on earth will give You thanks, Lord,when they hear what You have promised.

Though the Lord is exalted,He takes note of the humble;but He knows the haughty from a distance.

The Lord will fulfill His purpose for me.Lord, Your love is eternal;do not abandon the work of Your hands.

For the choir director. A Davidic psalm.Lord, You have searched me and known me.

Before a word is on my tongue,You know all about it, Lord.

For the choir director. A Davidic psalm.Rescue me, Lord, from evil men.Keep me safe from violent men

Protect me, Lord,from the clutches of the wicked.Keep me safe from violent menwho plan to make me stumble.

A Davidic Maskil. When he was in the cave. A prayer.I cry aloud to the Lord;I plead aloud to the Lord for mercy.

I cry to You, Lord;I say, “You are my shelter,my portion in the land of the living.”

A Davidic psalm.Lord, hear my prayer.In Your faithfulness listen to my plea,and in Your righteousness answer me.

Answer me quickly, Lord;my spirit fails.Don’t hide Your face from me,or I will be like thosegoing down to the Pit.

Rescue me from my enemies, Lord;I come to You for protection.

Davidic.May the Lord, my rock, be praised,who trains my hands for battleand my fingers for warfare.

Lord, what is man, that You care for him,the son of man, that You think of him?

Lord, part Your heavens and come down.Touch the mountains, and they will smoke.

The fear of the Lordis the beginning of knowledge;fools despise wisdom and discipline.

Because they hated knowledge,didn’t choose to fear the Lord,

then you will understand the fear of the Lordand discover the knowledge of God.

For the Lord gives wisdom;from His mouth come knowledge and understanding.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart,and do not rely on your own understanding;

Don’t consider yourself to be wise;fear the Lord and turn away from evil.

Honor the Lord with your possessionsand with the first produce of your entire harvest;

for the Lord disciplines the one He loves,just as a father, the son he delights in.

The Lord founded the earth by wisdomand established the heavens by understanding.

for the Lord will be your confidenceand will keep your foot from a snare.

for the devious are detestable to the Lord,but He is a friend to the upright.

The Lord hates six things;in fact, seven are detestable to Him:

To fear the Lord is to hate evil.I hate arrogant pride, evil conduct,and perverse speech.

“The Lord made meat the beginning of His creation,before His works of long ago.

For the one who finds me finds lifeand obtains favor from the Lord,

“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.

The Lord will not let the righteous go hungry,but He denies the wicked what they crave.

The fear of the Lord prolongs life,but the years of the wicked are cut short.

The way of the Lord is a stronghold for the honorable,but destruction awaits the malicious.

Dishonest scales are detestable to the Lord,but an accurate weight is His delight.

Those with twisted minds are detestable to the Lord,but those with blameless conduct are His delight.

The good person obtains favor from the Lord,but He condemns a man who schemes.

Lying lips are detestable to the Lord,but faithful people are His delight.

Whoever lives with integrity fears the Lord,but the one who is devious in his ways despises Him.

In the fear of the Lord one has strong confidenceand his children have a refuge.

The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life,turning people away from the snares of death.

The eyes of the Lord are everywhere,observing the wicked and the good.

The sacrifice of the wicked is detestable to the Lord,but the prayer of the upright is His delight.
