Psalm 36 - To the chief Musician, A
Psalm of David the servant of the LORD.
The transgression of the wicked
saith within my heart, that there
is no fear of God before his eyes.
For he flattereth himself in his own eyes,
until his iniquity be found to be hateful.
The words of his mouth are
iniquity and deceit: he hath left
off to be wise, and to do good.
He deviseth mischief upon his bed;
he setteth himself in a way that
is not good; he abhorreth not evil.
Thy mercy, O Lord, is in the heavens; and
thy faithfulness reacheth unto the clouds.
Thy righteousness is like the great
mountains; thy judgments are a great deep:
O Lord, thou preservest man and beast.
How excellent is thy
lovingkindness, O God!
therefore the children of men put their
trust under the shadow of thy wings.
They shall be abundantly satisfied
with the fatness of thy house;
and thou shalt make them drink
of the river of thy pleasures.
For with thee is the fountain of
life: in thy light shall we see light.
O continue thy lovingkindness
unto them that know thee; and thy
righteousness to the upright in heart.
Let not the foot of pride come
against me, and let not the
hand of the wicked remove me.
There are the workers of iniquity
fallen: they are cast down,
and shall not be able to rise.
Psalm 37 - A Psalm of David.
Fret not thyself because of
evildoers, neither be thou envious
against the workers of iniquity.
For they shall soon be cut down like
the grass, and wither as the green herb.
Trust in the Lord, and do good;
so shalt thou dwell in the land,
and verily thou shalt be fed.
Delight thyself also in the
Lord: and he shall give thee
the desires of thine heart.
Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also
in him; and he shall bring it to pass.
And he shall bring forth thy
righteousness as the light, and
thy judgment as the noonday.
Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for
him: fret not thyself because of him who
prospereth in his way, because of the
man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.
Cease from anger, and forsake wrath:
fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.
For evildoers shall be cut off:
but those that wait upon the Lord,
they shall inherit the earth.
For yet a little while, and the wicked
shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently
consider his place, and it shall not be.
But the meek shall inherit the
earth; and shall delight themselves
in the abundance of peace.
The wicked plotteth against the just,
and gnasheth upon him with his teeth.
The Lord shall laugh at him: for
he seeth that his day is coming.
The wicked have drawn out the sword,
and have bent their bow, to cast
down the poor and needy, and to slay
such as be of upright conversation.
Their sword shall enter into their own
heart, and their bows shall be broken.
A little that a righteous man hath is
better than the riches of many wicked.
For the arms of the wicked
shall be broken: but the
Lord upholdeth the righteous.
The Lord knoweth the days of the upright:
and their inheritance shall be for ever.
They shall not be ashamed in the
evil time: and in the days of
famine they shall be satisfied.
But the wicked shall perish, and the
enemies of the Lord shall be as the
fat of lambs: they shall consume;
into smoke shall they consume away.
The wicked borroweth, and payeth
not again: but the righteous
sheweth mercy, and giveth.
For such as be blessed of him shall
inherit the earth; and they that
be cursed of him shall be cut off.
The steps of a good man are ordered by
the Lord: and he delighteth in his way.
Though he fall, he shall not be
utterly cast down: for the Lord
upholdeth him with his hand.
I have been young, and now am old;
yet have I not seen the righteous
forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.
He is ever merciful, and
lendeth; and his seed is blessed.
Depart from evil, and do
good; and dwell for evermore.
For the Lord loveth judgment,
and forsaketh not his saints;
they are preserved for
ever: but the seed of the
wicked shall be cut off.
The righteous shall inherit the
land, and dwell therein for ever.
The mouth of the righteous
speaketh wisdom, and his
tongue talketh of judgment.
The law of his God is in his heart;
none of his steps shall slide.
The wicked watcheth the righteous,
and seeketh to slay him.
The Lord will not leave him in his
hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.
Wait on the Lord, and keep his way, and he
shall exalt thee to inherit the land: when
the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it.
I have seen the wicked in great power, and
spreading himself like a green bay tree.
Yet he passed away, and, lo,
he was not: yea, I sought him,
but he could not be found.
Mark the perfect man, and behold the
upright: for the end of that man is peace.
But the transgressors shall be
destroyed together: the end of
the wicked shall be cut off.
But the salvation of the righteous
is of the Lord: he is their
strength in the time of trouble.
And the Lord shall help them, and
deliver them: he shall deliver
them from the wicked, and save
them, because they trust in him.
Psalm 38 - A Psalm of David,
to bring to remembrance.
O Lord, rebuke me not in thy wrath:
neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
For thine arrows stick fast in
me, and thy hand presseth me sore.
There is no soundness in my flesh because
of thine anger; neither is there any
rest in my bones because of my sin.
For mine iniquities are gone
over mine head: as an heavy
burden they are too heavy for me.
My wounds stink and are corrupt
because of my foolishness.
I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly;
I go mourning all the day long.
For my loins are filled with
a loathsome disease: and there
is no soundness in my flesh.
I am feeble and sore broken: I have roared
by reason of the disquietness of my heart.
Lord, all my desire is before thee;
and my groaning is not hid from thee.
My heart panteth, my strength
faileth me: as for the light of
mine eyes, it also is gone from me.
My lovers and my friends stand aloof from
my sore; and my kinsmen stand afar off.
They also that seek after my life lay
snares for me: and they that seek my
hurt speak mischievous things, and
imagine deceits all the day long.
But I, as a deaf man, heard not; and I was
as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth.
Thus I was as a man that heareth not,
and in whose mouth are no reproofs.
For in thee, O Lord, do I hope:
thou wilt hear, O Lord my God.
For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise
they should rejoice over me:
when my foot slippeth, they
magnify themselves against me.
For I am ready to halt, and my
sorrow is continually before me.
For I will declare mine iniquity;
I will be sorry for my sin.
But mine enemies are lively, and
they are strong: and they that
hate me wrongfully are multiplied.
They also that render evil for
good are mine adversaries; because
I follow the thing that good is.
Forsake me not, O Lord: O
my God, be not far from me.
Make haste to help me,
O Lord my salvation.
Psalm 39.
To the chief musician.
Even to Jonathan, a Psalm of David.
Psalm 39 - To the chief Musician,
even to Jeduthun, A Psalm of David.
I said, I will take heed to my ways,
that I sin not with my tongue: I
will keep my mouth with a bridle,
while the wicked is before me.
I was dumb with silence, I held my peace,
even from good; and my sorrow was stirred.
My heart was hot within me, while
I was musing the fire burned:
then spake I with my tongue,
Lord, make me to know mine end,
and the measure of my days, what it
is: that I may know how frail I am.
Behold, thou hast made my days as
an handbreadth; and mine age is as
nothing before thee: verily every man
at his best state is altogether vanity.
Selah.
Surely every man walketh in a vain
shew: surely they are disquieted
in vain: he heapeth up riches, and
knoweth not who shall gather them.
And now, Lord, what wait I for?
my hope is in thee.
Deliver me from all my transgressions:
make me not the reproach of the foolish.
I was dumb, I opened not my
mouth; because thou didst it.
Remove thy stroke away from me: I am
consumed by the blow of thine hand.
When thou with rebukes dost correct
man for iniquity, thou makest
his beauty to consume away like a
moth: surely every man is vanity.
Selah.
Hear my prayer, O Lord, and give ear
unto my cry; hold not thy peace at my
tears: for I am a stranger with thee,
and a sojourner, as all my fathers were.
O spare me, that I may recover strength,
before I go hence, and be no more.
Psalm 40 - To the chief
Musician, A Psalm of David.
I waited patiently for the Lord; and
he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.
He brought me up also out of an horrible
pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet
upon a rock, and established my goings.
And he hath put a new song in my mouth,
even praise unto our God: many shall see
it, and fear, and shall trust in the Lord.
Blessed is that man that maketh the
Lord his trust, and respecteth not the
proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
Many, O Lord my God, are thy wonderful
works which thou hast done, and thy
thoughts which are to us-ward: they
cannot be reckoned up in order unto
thee: if I would declare and speak of
them, they are more than can be numbered.
Sacrifice and offering thou didst
not desire; mine ears hast thou
opened: burnt offering and sin
offering hast thou not required.
Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume
of the book it is written of me,
I delight to do thy will, O my God:
yea, thy law is within my heart.
I have preached righteousness in the
great congregation: lo, I have not
refrained my lips, O Lord, thou knowest.
I have not hid thy righteousness
within my heart; I have declared thy
faithfulness and thy salvation: I have
not concealed thy lovingkindness and
thy truth from the great congregation.
Withhold not thou thy tender mercies
from me, O Lord: let thy lovingkindness
and thy truth continually preserve me.
For innumerable evils have compassed me
about: mine iniquities have taken hold
upon me, so that I am not able to look
up; they are more than the hairs of mine
head: therefore my heart faileth me.
Be pleased, O Lord, to deliver
me: O Lord, make haste to help me.
Let them be ashamed and confounded
together that seek after my soul to
destroy it; let them be driven backward
and put to shame that wish me evil.
Let them be desolate for a reward of
their shame that say unto me, Aha, aha.
Let all those that seek thee
rejoice and be glad in thee: let
such as love thy salvation say
continually, The Lord be magnified.
But I am poor and needy; yet the Lord
thinketh upon me: thou art my help and
my deliverer; make no tarrying, O my God.
