'Man' in the Bible

Happy is the man who does not go in the company of sinners, or take his place in the way of evil-doers, or in the seat of those who do not give honour to the Lord.

You will send destruction on those whose words are false; the cruel man and the man of deceit are hated by the Lord.

For you, Lord, will send a blessing on the upright man; your grace will be round him, and you will be his strength.

If a man is not turned from his evil, he will make his sword sharp; his bow is bent and ready.

That man is a worker of evil; the seed of wrongdoing has given birth to deceit.

You have made clear your strength even out of the mouths of babies at the breast, because of those who are against you; so that you may put to shame the cruel and violent man.

What is man, that you keep him in mind? the son of man, that you take him into account?

Up! O Lord; let not man overcome you: let the nations be judged before you.

He keeps himself in a secret place like a lion in his hole, waiting to put his hands on the poor man, and pulling him into his net.

You have seen it; for your eyes are on sorrow and grief, to take it into your hand: the poor man puts his faith in you; you have been the helper of the child who has no father.

To give decision for the child without a father and for the broken-hearted, so that the man of the earth may no longer be feared.

If the bases are broken down, what is the upright man to do?

The foolish man has said in his heart, God will not do anything. They are unclean, they have done evil works; there is not one who does good.

He who is holy will see that you are holy; but to the man whose way is not straight you will be a hard judge.

He makes me free from my haters; I am lifted up over those who come up against me: you have made me free from the violent man.

Who is like a newly married man coming from his bride-tent, and is glad like a strong runner starting on his way.

But I am a worm and not a man; cursed by men, and looked down on by the people.

If a man has the fear of the Lord, the Lord will be his teacher in the way of his pleasure.

I have gone from men's minds and memory like a dead man; I am like a broken vessel.

You will keep them safe in your house from the designs of man; in the secret of your tent will you keep them from angry tongues.

Happy is the man in whom the Lord sees no evil, and in whose spirit there is no deceit.

The sinner will be full of trouble; but mercy will be round the man who has faith in the Lord.

The Lord's purpose is eternal, the designs of his heart go on through all the generations of man.

A king's salvation is not in the power of his army; a strong man does not get free by his great strength.

A horse is a false hope; his great power will not make any man free from danger.

By experience you will see that the Lord is good; happy is the man who has faith in him.

What man has a love of life, and a desire that his days may be increased so that he may see good?

All my bones will say, Lord, who is like you? The saviour of the poor man from the hands of the strong, of him who is poor and in need from him who takes his goods.

Your righteousness is like the mountains of God; your judging is like the great deep; O Lord, you give life to man and beast.

Take your rest in the Lord, waiting quietly for him; do not be angry because of the man who does well in his evil ways, and gives effect to his bad designs.

The little which the good man has is better than the wealth of evil-doers.

The sinner takes money and does not give it back; but the upright man has mercy, and gives to others.

The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, and he takes delight in his way.

I have been young, and now am old, but I have not seen the good man without help, or his children looking for bread.

The mouth of the good man says words of wisdom; the talk of his tongue is of righteousness.

The sinners are watching the upright man, desiring to put him to death.

Give attention to the good man, and take note of the upright; because the end of that man is peace.

You have made my days no longer than a hand's measure; and my years are nothing in your eyes; truly, every man is but a breath. (Selah.)

Truly, every man goes on his way like an image; he is troubled for no purpose: he makes a great store of wealth, and has no knowledge of who will get it.

Make me free from all my sins; do not let me be shamed by the man of evil behaviour.

By the weight of your wrath against man's sin, the glory of his form is wasted away; truly every man is but a breath. (Selah.)

Happy is the man who has faith in the Lord, and does not give honour to the men of pride or to those who are turned away to deceit.

Happy is the man who gives thought to the poor; the Lord will be his saviour in the time of trouble.

Be my judge, O God, supporting my cause against a nation without religion; O keep me from the false and evil man.

Truly, no man may get back his soul for a price, or give to God the payment for himself;

(Because it takes a great price to keep his soul from death, and man is not able to give it.)

But man, like the animals, does not go on for ever; he comes to an end like the beasts.

Have no fear when wealth comes to a man, and the glory of his house is increased;

Man, like the animals, does not go on for ever; he comes to an end like the beasts.

Why do you take pride in wrongdoing, lifting yourself up against the upright man all the day?

See, this is the man who did not make God his strength, but had faith in his goods and his property, and made himself

The foolish man has said in his heart, God will not do anything. They are unclean, they have done evil works; there is not one who does good.

Put your cares on the Lord, and he will be your support; he will not let the upright man be moved.

Have mercy on me, O God, for man is attempting my destruction; every day he makes cruel attacks against me.

In God have I put my hope, I will have no fear of what man may do to me.

The upright man will be glad when he sees their punishment; his feet will be washed in the blood of the evil-doer.

By the power of your hand the earth is shaking and broken; make it strong again, for it is moved.

How long will you go on designing evil against a man? running against him as against a broken wall, which is on the point of falling?

And mercy, O Lord, is yours, for you give to every man the reward of his work.

Or make discovery of our secret purpose? The design is framed with care; and the inner thought of a man, and his heart, is deep.

Happy is the man of your selection, to whom you give a resting-place in your house; we will be full of the good things out of your holy place.

I have become strange to my brothers, and like a man from a far country to my mother's children.

O my God, take me out of the hand of the sinner, out of the hand of the evil and cruel man.

They are cutting down, like a man whose blade is lifted up against the thick trees.

O let not the crushed be turned back in shame; let the low man and the poor give praise to your name.

Up! O God, be the judge of your cause; keep in mind the bitter things which the man of evil behaviour says against you every day.

Man took part in the food of strong ones; he sent them meat in full measure.

But he, being full of pity, has forgiveness for sin, and does not put an end to man: frequently turning back his wrath, and not being violently angry.

Then was the Lord like one awaking from sleep, and like a strong man crying out because of wine.

Let your hand be on the man of your right hand, on the son of man whom you made strong for yourself.

Happy is the man whose strength is in you; in whose heart are the highways to Zion.

O Lord of armies, happy is the man whose hope is in you.

Rahab and Babylon will be named among those who have knowledge of me; see, Philistia and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this man had his birth there.

And of Zion it will be said, This or that man had his birth there; and the Most High will make her strong.

The Lord will keep in mind, when he is writing the records of the people, that this man had his birth there. (Selah.)

O Lord, God of my salvation, I have been crying to you for help by day and by night:

I have made an agreement with the man of my selection, I have made an oath to David my servant;

What man now living will not see death? will he be able to keep back his soul from the underworld? (Selah.)

He who is the judge of the nations, will he not give men the reward of their acts, even he who gives knowledge to man?

The Lord has knowledge of the thoughts of man, for they are only a breath.

Happy is the man who is guided by you, O Jah, and to whom you give teaching out of your law;

As for man, his days are as grass: his beautiful growth is like the flower of the field.

He makes the grass come up for the cattle, and plants for the use of man; so that bread may come out of the earth;

And wine to make glad the heart of man, and oil to make his face shining, and bread giving strength to his heart.

Man goes out to his work, and to his business, till the evening.

He sent a man before them, even Joseph, who was given as a servant for a price:

He sent Moses, his servant, and Aaron, the man of his selection.

They are turned here and there, rolling like a man who is full of wine; and all their wisdom comes to nothing.

But he puts the poor man on high from his troubles, and gives him families like a flock.

Put an evil man over him; and let one be placed at his right hand to say evil of him.

Let no man have pity on him, or give help to his children when he is dead.

Let the Lord be praised. Happy is the man who gives honour to the Lord, and has great delight in his laws.

All is well for the man who is kind and gives freely to others; he will make good his cause when he is judged.

He takes the poor man out of the dust, lifting him up from his low position;

The Lord is on my side; I will have no fear: what is man able to do to me?

It is better to have faith in the Lord than to put one's hope in man.

How may a young man make his way clean? by guiding it after your word.

So that I may have an answer for the man who would put me to shame; for I have faith in your word.

Make me free from the cruel rule of man; then I will keep your orders.

I am delighted by your saying, like a man who makes discovery of great wealth.
