The Bible (Old and New Testaments)

Neither shall the wicked dwell near thee: nor shall the unjust abide before thy eyes.

Thou hatest all the workers of iniquity: thou wilt destroy all that speak a lie. The bloody and the deceitful man the Lord will abhor.

But as for me in the multitude of thy mercy, I will come into thy house; I will worship towards thy holy temple, in thy fear.

Conduct me, O Lord, in thy justice: because of my enemies, direct my way in thy sight.

For there is no truth in their mouth: their heart is vain.

Their throat is an open sepulchre: they dealt deceitfully with their tongues: judge them, O God. Let them fall from their devices: according to the multitude of their wickednesses cast them out: for they have provoked thee, O Lord.

But let all them be glad that hope in thee: they shall rejoice for ever, and thou shalt dwell in them. And all they that love thy name shall glory in thee.

For thou wilt bless the just. O Lord, thou hast crowned us, as with a shield of thy good will.

Unto the end, in verses, a psalm for David, for the octave.

O Lord, rebuke me not in thy indignation, nor chastise me in thy wrath.

Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am weak: heal me, O Lord, for my bones are troubled.

And my soul is troubled exceedingly: but thou, O Lord, how long?

Turn to me, O Lord, and deliver my soul: O save me for thy mercy's sake.

For there is no one in death, that is mindful of thee: and who shall confess to thee in hell?

I have laboured in my groanings, every night I will wash my bed: I will water my couch with my tears.

My eye is troubled through indignation: I have grown old amongst all my enemies.

Depart from em, all ye workers of iniquity: for the Lord hath heard the voice of my weeping.

The Lord hath heard my supplication: the Lord hath received my prayer.

Let all my enemies be ashamed, and be very much troubled: let them be turned back, and be ashamed very speedily.

The psalm of David, which he sung to the Lord, for the words of Chusi, the son of Jemini.

O Lord, my God, in thee have I put my trust; same me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me.

Lest at any time he seize upon my soul like a lion, while there is no one to redeem me, nor to save.

O Lord, my God, if I have done this thing, if there be iniquity in my hands:

If I have rendered to them that repaid me evils, let me deservedly fall empty before my enemies.

Let the enemy pursue my soul, and take it, and tread down my life, on the earth, and bring down my glory to the dust.

Rise up, O Lord, in thy anger: and be thou exalted in the borders of my enemies. And arise, O Lord, my God, in the precept which thou hast commanded:

And a congregation of people shall surround thee. And for their sakes return thou on high.

The Lord judgeth the people. Judge me, O Lord, according to my justice, and according to my innocence in me.

The wickedness of sinners shall be brought to nought; and thou shalt direct the just: the searcher of hearts and reins is God.

Just is my help from the Lord; who saveth the upright of heart.

God is a just judge, strong and patient: is he angry every day?

Except you will be converted, he will brandish his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made it ready.

And in it he hath prepared to instruments of death, he hath made ready his arrows for them that burn.

Behold he hath been in labour with injustice: he hath conceived sorrow, and brought forth iniquity.

He hath opened a pit and dug it: and he is fallen into the hole he made.

His sorrow shall be turned on his own head: and his iniquity shall come down upon his crown.

I will give glory to the Lord according to his justice: and will sing to the name of the Lord the most high.

Unto the end, for the presses: a psalm for David.

O Lord, our Lord, how admirable is thy name in the whole earth! For thy magnificence is elevated above the heavens.

Out of the mouth of infants and of sucklings thou hast perfected praise, because of thy enemies, that thou mayst destroy the enemy and the avenger.

For I will behold thy heavens, the works of thy fingers: the moon and the stars which thou hast founded.

What is man, that thou art mindful of him? or the son of man, that thou visitest him?

Thou hast made him a little less than the angels, thou hast crowned him with glory and honour:

And hast set him over the works of thy hands.

Thou hast subjected all things under his feet, all sheep and oxen: moreover, the beasts also of the fields.

The birds of the air, and the fishes of the sea, that pass through the paths of the sea.

O Lord, our Lord, how admirable is thy name in the whole earth!

Unto the end, for the hidden things of the Son. A psalm for David.

I will give praise to thee, O Lord, with my whole heart: I will relate all thy wonders.

I will be glad, and rejoice in thee: I will sing to thy name, O thou most high.

When my enemy shall be turned back: they shall be weakened, and perish before thy face.

For thou hast maintained my judgment and my cause: thou hast sat on the throne, who judgest justice.

Thou hast rebuked the Gentiles, and the wicked one hath perished; thou hast blotted out their name for ever and ever.

The swords of the enemy have failed unto the end: and their cities thou hast destroyed. Their memory hath perished with a noise:

But the Lord remaineth for ever. He hath prepared his throne in judgment:

And he shall judge the world in equity, he shall judge the people in justice.

And the Lord is become a refuge for the poor: a helper in due time in tribulation.

And let them trust in thee who know thy name: for thou hast not forsaken them that seek thee, O Lord.

Sing ye to the Lord, who dwelleth in Sion: declare his ways among the Gentiles:

For requiring their blood, he hath remembered them: he hath not forgotten the cry of the poor.

Have mercy on me, O Lord: see my humiliation which I suffer from my enemies.

Thou that liftest me up from the gates of death, that I may declare all thy praises in the gates of the daughter of Sion.

I will rejoice in thy salvation: the Gentiles have stuck fast in the destruction which they prepared. Their foot hath been taken in the very snare which they hid.

The Lord shall be known when he executeth judgments: the sinner hath been caught in the works of his own hands.

The wicked shall be turned into hell, all the nations that forget God.

For the poor man shall not be forgotten to the end: the patience of the poor shall not perish for ever.

Arise, O Lord, let not man be strengthened: let the Gentiles be judged in thy sight.

Appoint, O Lord, a lawgiver over them: that the Gentiles may know themselves to be but men.

Why, O Lord, hast thou retired afar off? why dost thou slight us in our wants, in the time of trouble?

Whilst the wicked man is proud, the poor is set on fire: they are caught in the counsels which they devise.

For the sinner is praised in the desires of his soul: and the unjust man is blessed.

The sinner hath provoked the Lord, according to the multitude of his wrath, he will not seek him:

God is not before his eyes: his ways are filthy at all times. Thy judgments are removed form his sight: he shall rule over all his enemies.

For he hath said in his heart: I shall not be moved from generation to generation, and shall be without evil.

His mouth is full of cursing, and of bitterness, and of deceit: under his tongue are labour and sorrow.

He sitteth in ambush with the rich, in private places, that he may kill the innocent.

His eyes are upon the poor man: he lieth in wait, in secret, like a lion in his den. He lieth in ambush, that he may catch the poor man: so catch the poor, whilst he draweth him to him.

In his net he will bring him down, he will crouch and fall, when he shall have power over the poor.

For he hath said in his heart: God hath forgotten, he hath turned away his face, not to see to the end.

Arise, O Lord God, let thy hand be exalted: forget not the poor.

Wherefore hath the wicked provoked God? for he hath said in his heart: He will not require it.

Thou seest it, for thou considerest labour and sorrow: that thou mayst deliver them into thy hands. To thee is the poor man left: thou wilt be a helper to the orphan.

Break thou the arm of the sinner and of the malignant: his sin shall be sought, and shall not be found.

The Lord shall reign to eternity, yea, for ever and ever: ye Gentiles shall perish from his land.

The Lord hath heard the desire of the poor: thy ear hath heard the preparation of their heart.

To judge for the fatherless and for the humble, that man may no more presume to magnify himself upon earth.

Unto the end. A psalm to David.

In the Lord I put my trust: how then do you say to my soul: Get thee away from hence to the mountain, like a sparrow.

For, lo, the wicked have bent their bow: they have prepared their arrows in the quiver, to shoot in the dark the upright of heart.

For they have destroyed the things which thou hast made: but what has the just man done?

The Lord is in his holy temple, the Lord's throne is in heaven. His eyes look on the poor man: his eyelids examine the sons of men.

The Lord trieth the just and the wicked: but he that loveth iniquity, hateth his own soul.

He shall rain snares upon sinners: fire and brimstone, and storms of winds, shall be the portion of their cup.

For the Lord is just, and hath loved justice: his countenance hath beheld righteousness.

Unto the end: for the octave, a psalm for David.

Save me, O Lord, for there is now no saint: truths are decayed from among the children of men.

They have spoken vain things, every one to his neighbour: with deceitful lips, and with a double heart have they spoken.

May the Lord destroy all deceitful lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things.

Who have said: We will magnify our tongue: our lips are our own: who is Lord over us?

By reason of the misery of the needy, and the groans of the poor, now will I arise, saith the Lord. I will set him in safety: I will deal confidently in his regard.
