'Thing' in the Bible

Why do the nations rage, And the peoples meditate a vain thing?

One thing have I asked of Jehovah, that will I seek after; That I may dwell in the house of Jehovah all the days of my life, To behold the beauty of Jehovah, And to inquire in his temple.

A horse is a vain thing for safety; Neither doth he deliver any by his great power.

The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger; But they that seek Jehovah shall not want any good thing.

They also that render evil for good Are adversaries unto me, because I follow the thing that is good.

For Jehovah God is a sun and a shield: Jehovah will give grace and glory; No good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.

My covenant will I not break, Nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.

It is a good thing to give thanks unto Jehovah, And to sing praises unto thy name, O Most High;

I will set no base thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; It shall not cleave unto me.

A perverse heart shall depart from me: I will know no evil thing.

Incline not my heart to any evil thing, To practise deeds of wickedness With men that work iniquity: And let me not eat of their dainties.

Thou openest thy hand, And satisfiest the desire of every living thing.
