'Things' in the Bible

O you sons of men, how long will you go on turning my glory into shame? how long will you give your love to foolish things, going after what is false? (Selah.)

You have made him ruler over the works of your hands; you have put all things under his feet;

For you go before him with the blessings of good things: you put a crown of fair gold on his head.

The poor will have a feast of good things: those who make search for the Lord will give him praise: your heart will have life for ever.

His soul will be full of good things, and his seed will have the earth for its heritage.

Because they have no respect for the works of the Lord, or for the things which his hands have made, they will be broken down and not lifted up by him.

My soul will say great things of the Lord: the poor in spirit will have knowledge of it and be glad.

For they do not say words of peace; in their deceit they are designing evil things against the quiet ones in the land.

Let my soul be overflowing with grief when these things come back to my mind, how I went in company to the house of God, with the voice of joy and praise, with the song of those who were keeping the feast.

My heart is flowing over with good things; my words are of that which I have made for a king; my tongue is the pen of a ready writer.

And go nobly on in your power, because you are good and true and without pride; and your right hand will be teaching you things of fear.

I will send up my cry to the Most High God; to God who does all things for me.

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

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.

Those whose resting-place was there, even the poor, were comforted by your good things, O God.

O God, send out your strength; the strength, O God, with which you have done great things for us,

I am on fire with passion for your house; and the hard things which are said about you have come on me.

Your righteousness, O God, is very high; you have done great things; O God, who is like you?

O God, how long will those who are against us say cruel things? will the hater go on looking down on your name for ever?

Keep this in mind, O Lord, that your haters have said cruel things, and that your name has been looked down on by a people of evil behaviour.

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.

So these things came to the Lord's ears, and he was angry; and a fire was lighted against Jacob, and wrath came up against Israel;

Noble things are said of you, O town of God. (Selah.)

I will be true to my agreement; the things which have gone out of my lips will not be changed.

You will have no fear of the evil things of the night, or of the arrow in flight by day,

Words of pride come from their lips; all the workers of evil say great things of themselves.

He makes your mouth full of good things, so that your strength is made new again like the eagle's.

O Lord, how great is the number of your works! in wisdom you have made them all; the earth is full of the things you have made.

There is the great, wide sea, where there are living things, great and small, more than may be numbered.

They take what you give them; they are full of the good things which come from your open hand.

They had no memory of God their saviour, who had done great things in Egypt;

Works of wonder in the land of Ham, and things of fear by the Red Sea.

For they made his spirit bitter, and he said unwise things.

He gives its desire to the unresting soul, so that it is full of good things.

Let the wise give thought to these things, and see the mercies of the Lord.

For the mouth of the sinner is open against me in deceit: his tongue has said false things against me.

What may I give to the Lord for all the good things which he has done for me?

The men of pride have said false things about me; but I will keep your orders in my heart.

They are ruled this day by your decisions; for all things are your servants.

Because of it I keep straight in all things by your orders; and I am a hater of every false way.

Lord, there is no pride in my heart and my eyes are not lifted up; and I have not taken part in great undertakings, or in things over-hard for me.

The Lord will make all things complete for me: O Lord, your mercy is eternal; do not give up the works of your hands.

Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all things in them; who keeps faith for ever:

He has not done these things for any other nation: and as for his laws, they have no knowledge of them. Let the Lord be praised.
