Blessed is the man
who walks not in the counsel of the wicked,
nor stands in the way of sinners,
nor sits in the seat of scoffers;
2
but his delight is in the law of the Lord,
and on his law he meditates day and night.
...
1
O Lord, rebuke me not in your anger,
nor discipline me in your wrath.
2
Be gracious to me, O Lord, for I am languishing;
heal me, O Lord, for my bones are troubled.
...
1
In the Lord I take refuge;
how can you say to my soul,
"Flee like a bird to your mountain,
2
for behold, the wicked bend the bow;
they have fitted their arrow to the string
to shoot in the dark at the upright in heart;
...
1
Preserve me, O God, for in you I take refuge.
2
I say to the Lord, "You are my Lord;
I have no good apart from you."
...
1
O Lord, in your strength the king rejoices,
and in your salvation how greatly he exults!
2
You have given him his heart's desire
and have not withheld the request of his lips.
...
1
Vindicate me, O Lord,
for I have walked in my integrity,
and I have trusted in the Lord without wavering.
2
Prove me, O Lord, and try me;
test my heart and my mind.
...
1
In you, O Lord, do I take refuge;
let me never be put to shame;
in your righteousness deliver me!
2
Incline your ear to me;
rescue me speedily!
Be a rock of refuge for me,
a strong fortress to save me!
...
1
Transgression speaks to the wicked
deep in his heart;
there is no fear of God
before his eyes.
2
For he flatters himself in his own eyes
that his iniquity cannot be found out and hated.
...
1
Blessed is the one who considers the poor!
In the day of trouble the Lord delivers him;
2
the Lord protects him and keeps him alive;
he is called blessed in the land;
you do not give him up to the will of his enemies.
...
1
God is our refuge and strength,
a very present help in trouble.
2
Therefore we will not fear though the earth gives way,
though the mountains be moved into the heart of the sea,
...
