Chapter 8

19:089:013 Thou hast a mighty arm: strong is thy hand, and high is thy right hand.

19:089:014 Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face.

19:089:015 Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O LORD, in the light of thy countenance.

19:089:016 In thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness shall they be exalted.

19:089:017 For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy favour our horn shall be exalted.

19:089:018 For the LORD is our defence; and the Holy One of Israel is our king.

19:089:019 Then thou spakest in vision to thy holy one, and saidst, I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people.

19:089:020 I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him:

19:089:021 With whom my hand shall be established: mine arm also shall strengthen him.

19:089:022 The enemy shall not exact upon him; nor the son of wickedness afflict him.

19:089:023 And I will beat down his foes before his face, and plague them that hate him.

19:089:024 But my faithfulness and my mercy shall be with him: and in my name shall his horn be exalted.

19:089:025 I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.

19:089:026 He shall cry unto me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.

19:089:027 Also I will make him my firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth.

19:089:028 My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him.

19:089:029 His seed also will I make to endure for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.

19:089:030 If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;

19:089:031 If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments;

19:089:032 Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.

19:089:033 Nevertheless my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail.

19:089:034 My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.

19:089:035 Once have I sworn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David.

19:089:036 His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me.

19:089:037 It shall be established for ever as the moon, and as a faithful witness in heaven. Selah.

19:089:038 But thou hast cast off and abhorred, thou hast been wroth with thine anointed.

19:089:039 Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned his crown by casting it to the ground.

19:089:040 Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast brought his strong holds to ruin.

19:089:041 All that pass by the way spoil him: he is a reproach to his neighbours.

19:089:042 Thou hast set up the right hand of his adversaries; thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice.

19:089:043 Thou hast also turned the edge of his sword, and hast not made him to stand in the battle.

19:089:044 Thou hast made his glory to cease, and cast his throne down to the ground.

19:089:045 The days of his youth hast thou shortened: thou hast covered him with shame. Selah.

19:089:046 How long, LORD? wilt thou hide thyself for ever? shall thy wrath burn like fire?

19:089:047 Remember how short my time is: wherefore hast thou made all men in vain?

19:089:048 What man is he that liveth, and shall not see death? shall he deliver his soul from the hand of the grave? Selah.

19:089:049 Lord, where are thy former lovingkindnesses, which thou swarest unto David in thy truth?

19:089:050 Remember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants; how I do bear in my bosom the reproach of all the mighty people;

19:089:051 Wherewith thine enemies have reproached, O LORD; wherewith they have reproached the footsteps of thine anointed.

19:089:052 Blessed be the LORD for evermore. Amen, and Amen.

19:090:001 Lord, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations.

19:090:002 Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.

19:090:003 Thou turnest man to destruction; and sayest, Return, ye children of men.

19:090:004 For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.

19:090:005 Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep: in the morning they are like grass which groweth up.

19:090:006 In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth up; in the evening it is cut down, and withereth.

19:090:007 For we are consumed by thine anger, and by thy wrath are we troubled.

19:090:008 Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, our secret sins in the light of thy countenance.

19:090:009 For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: we spend our years as a tale that is told.

19:090:010 The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.

19:090:011 Who knoweth the power of thine anger? even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath.

19:090:012 So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.

19:090:013 Return, O LORD, how long? and let it repent thee concerning thy servants.

19:090:014 O satisfy us early with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.

19:090:015 Make us glad according to the days wherein thou hast afflicted us, and the years wherein we have seen evil.

19:090:016 Let thy work appear unto thy servants, and thy glory unto their children.

19:090:017 And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us: and establish thou the work of our hands upon us; yea, the work of our hands establish thou it.

19:091:001 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

19:091:002 I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

19:091:003 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.

19:091:004 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

19:091:005 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;

19:091:006 Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.

19:091:007 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

19:091:008 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.

19:091:009 Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;

19:091:010 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

19:091:011 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

19:091:012 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

19:091:013 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

19:091:014 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

19:091:015 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.

19:091:016 With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

19:092:001 IT IS A GOOD THING TO GIVE THANKS UNTO THE LORD, AND TO SING PRAISES UNTO THY NAME, O MOST HIGH:

19:092:002 To shew forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night,

19:092:003 Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; upon the harp with a solemn sound.

19:092:004 For thou, LORD, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands.

19:092:005 O LORD, how great are thy works! and thy thoughts are very deep.

19:092:006 A brutish man knoweth not; neither doth a fool understand this.

19:092:007 When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is that they shall be destroyed for ever:

19:092:008 But thou, LORD, art most high for evermore.

19:092:009 For, lo, thine enemies, O LORD, for, lo, thine enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.

19:092:010 But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.

19:092:011 Mine eye also shall see my desire on mine enemies, and mine ears shall hear my desire of the wicked that rise up against me.

19:092:012 The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

19:092:013 Those that be planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God.

19:092:014 They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing;

19:092:015 To shew that the LORD is upright: he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.

19:093:001 The LORD reigneth, he is clothed with majesty; the LORD is clothed with strength, wherewith he hath girded himself: the world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved.

19:093:002 Thy throne is established of old: thou art from everlasting.

19:093:003 The floods have lifted up, O LORD, the floods have lifted up their voice; the floods lift up their waves.

19:093:004 The LORD on high is mightier than the noise of many waters, yea, than the mighty waves of the sea.

19:093:005 Thy testimonies are very sure: holiness becometh thine house, O LORD, for ever.

19:094:001 O Lord God, to whom vengeance belongeth; O God, to whom vengeance belongeth, shew thyself.

19:094:002 Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth: render a reward to the proud.

19:094:003 LORD, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked triumph?

19:094:004 How long shall they utter and speak hard things? and all the workers of iniquity boast themselves?

19:094:005 They break in pieces thy people, O LORD, and afflict thine heritage.

19:094:006 They slay the widow and the stranger, and murder the fatherless.

19:094:007 Yet they say, The LORD shall not see, neither shall the God of Jacob regard it.

19:094:008 Understand, ye brutish among the people: and ye fools, when will ye be wise?

19:094:009 He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? he that formed the eye, shall he not see?

19:094:010 He that chastiseth the heathen, shall not he correct? he that teacheth man knowledge, shall not he know?

19:094:011 The LORD knoweth the thoughts of man, that they are vanity.

19:094:012 Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O LORD, and teachest him out of thy law;

19:094:013 That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit be digged for the wicked.

19:094:014 For the LORD will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.

19:094:015 But judgment shall return unto righteousness: and all the upright in heart shall follow it.

19:094:016 Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?

19:094:017 Unless the LORD had been my help, my soul had almost dwelt in silence.

19:094:018 When I said, My foot slippeth; thy mercy, O LORD, held me up.

19:094:019 In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my soul.

19:094:020 Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with thee, which frameth mischief by a law?

19:094:021 They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood.

19:094:022 But the LORD is my defence; and my God is the rock of my refuge.

19:094:023 And he shall bring upon them their own iniquity, and shall cut them off in their own wickedness; yea, the LORD our God shall cut them off.

19:095:001 O come, let us sing unto the LORD: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation.

19:095:002 Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.

19:095:003 For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods.

19:095:004 In his hand are the deep places of the earth: the strength of the hills is his also.

19:095:005 The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land.

19:095:006 O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our maker.

19:095:007 For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. To day if ye will hear his voice,

19:095:008 Harden not your heart, as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness:

19:095:009 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work.

19:095:010 Forty years long was I grieved with this generation, and said, It is a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known my ways:

19:095:011 Unto whom I sware in my wrath that they should not enter into my rest.

19:096:001 O sing unto the LORD a new song: sing unto the LORD, all the earth.

19:096:002 Sing unto the LORD, bless his name; shew forth his salvation from day to day.

19:096:003 Declare his glory among the heathen, his wonders among all people.

19:096:004 For the LORD is great, and greatly to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods.

19:096:005 For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the LORD made the heavens.

19:096:006 Honour and majesty are before him: strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.

19:096:007 Give unto the LORD, O ye kindreds of the people, give unto the LORD glory and strength.

19:096:008 Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and come into his courts.

19:096:009 O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, all the earth.

19:096:010 Say among the heathen that the LORD reigneth: the world also shall be established that it shall not be moved: he shall judge the people righteously.

19:096:011 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof.

19:096:012 Let the field be joyful, and all that is therein: then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice

19:096:013 Before the LORD: for he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth: he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.

19:097:001 The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad thereof.

19:097:002 Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and judgment are the habitation of his throne.

19:097:003 A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about.

19:097:004 His lightnings enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled.

19:097:005 The hills melted like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.

19:097:006 The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory.

19:097:007 Confounded be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols: worship him, all ye gods.

19:097:008 Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced because of thy judgments, O LORD.

19:097:009 For thou, LORD, art high above all the earth: thou art exalted far above all gods.

19:097:010 Ye that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.

19:097:011 Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.

19:097:012 Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.

19:098:001 O sing unto the LORD a new song; for he hath done marvellous things: his right hand, and his holy arm, hath gotten him the victory.

19:098:002 The LORD hath made known his salvation: his righteousness hath he openly shewed in the sight of the heathen.

19:098:003 He hath remembered his mercy and his truth toward the house of Israel: all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

19:098:004 Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise.

19:098:005 Sing unto the LORD with the harp; with the harp, and the voice of a psalm.

19:098:006 With trumpets and sound of cornet make a joyful noise before the LORD, the King.

19:098:007 Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.

19:098:008 Let the floods clap their hands: let the hills be joyful together

19:098:009 Before the LORD; for he cometh to judge the earth: with righteousness shall he judge the world, and the people with equity.

19:099:001 The LORD reigneth; let the people tremble: he sitteth between the cherubims; let the earth be moved.

19:099:002 The LORD is great in Zion; and he is high above all the people.

19:099:003 Let them praise thy great and terrible name; for it is holy.

19:099:004 The king's strength also loveth judgment; thou dost establish equity, thou executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob.

19:099:005 Exalt ye the LORD our God, and worship at his footstool; for he is holy.

19:099:006 Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call upon his name; they called upon the LORD, and he answered them.

19:099:007 He spake unto them in the cloudy pillar: they kept his testimonies, and the ordinance that he gave them.

19:099:008 Thou answeredst them, O LORD our God: thou wast a God that forgavest them, though thou tookest vengeance of their inventions.

19:099:009 Exalt the LORD our God, and worship at his holy hill; for the LORD our God is holy.

19:100:001 Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands.

19:100:002 Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with singing.

19:100:003 Know ye that the LORD he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

19:100:004 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.

19:100:005 For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.

19:101:001 I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto thee, O LORD, will I sing.

19:101:002 I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when wilt thou come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.

19:101:003 I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.

19:101:004 A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person.

19:101:005 Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.

19:101:006 Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me.

19:101:007 He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.

19:101:008 I will early destroy all the wicked of the land; that I may cut off all wicked doers from the city of the LORD.

19:102:001 Hear my prayer, O LORD, and let my cry come unto thee.

19:102:002 Hide not thy face from me in the day when I am in trouble; incline thine ear unto me: in the day when I call answer me speedily.

19:102:003 For my days are consumed like smoke, and my bones are burned as an hearth.

19:102:004 My heart is smitten, and withered like grass; so that I forget to eat my bread.

19:102:005 By reason of the voice of my groaning my bones cleave to my skin.

19:102:006 I am like a pelican of the wilderness: I am like an owl of the desert.

19:102:007 I watch, and am as a sparrow alone upon the house top.

19:102:008 Mine enemies reproach me all the day; and they that are mad against me are sworn against me.

19:102:009 For I have eaten ashes like bread, and mingled my drink with weeping.

19:102:010 Because of thine indignation and thy wrath: for thou hast lifted me up, and cast me down.

19:102:011 My days are like a shadow that declineth; and I am withered like grass.

19:102:012 But thou, O LORD, shall endure for ever; and thy remembrance unto all generations.

19:102:013 Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favour her, yea, the set time, is come.

19:102:014 For thy servants take pleasure in her stones, and favour the dust thereof.

19:102:015 So the heathen shall fear the name of the LORD, and all the kings of the earth thy glory.

19:102:016 When the LORD shall build up Zion, he shall appear in his glory.

19:102:017 He will regard the prayer of the destitute, and not despise their prayer.

19:102:018 This shall be written for the generation to come: and the people which shall be created shall praise the LORD.

19:102:019 For he hath looked down from the height of his sanctuary; from heaven did the LORD behold the earth;

19:102:020 To hear the groaning of the prisoner; to loose those that are appointed to death;

19:102:021 To declare the name of the LORD in Zion, and his praise in Jerusalem;

19:102:022 When the people are gathered together, and the kingdoms, to serve the LORD.

19:102:023 He weakened my strength in the way; he shortened my days.

19:102:024 I said, O my God, take me not away in the midst of my days: thy years are throughout all generations.

19:102:025 Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the work of thy hands.

19:102:026 They shall perish, but thou shalt endure: yea, all of them shall wax old like a garment; as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall be changed:

19:102:027 But thou art the same, and thy years shall have no end.

19:102:028 The children of thy servants shall continue, and their seed shall be established before thee.

19:103:001 Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
