19:070:003 Let them be turned back for a reward of their shame that say,
Aha, aha.

19:070:004 Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: and
let such as love thy salvation say continually, Let God be
magnified.

19:070:005 But I am poor and needy: make haste unto me, O God: thou art
my help and my deliverer; O LORD, make no tarrying.

19:071:001 In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust: let me never be put to
confusion.

19:071:002 Deliver me in thy righteousness, and cause me to escape:
incline thine ear unto me, and save me.

19:071:003 Be thou my strong habitation, whereunto I may continually
resort: thou hast given commandment to save me; for thou art
my rock and my fortress.

19:071:004 Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of
the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.

19:071:005 For thou art my hope, O Lord GOD: thou art my trust from my
youth.

19:071:006 By thee have I been holden up from the womb: thou art he that
took me out of my mother's bowels: my praise shall be
continually of thee.

19:071:007 I am as a wonder unto many; but thou art my strong refuge.

19:071:008 Let my mouth be filled with thy praise and with thy honour all
the day.

19:071:009 Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my
strength faileth.

19:071:010 For mine enemies speak against me; and they that lay wait for
my soul take counsel together,

19:071:011 Saying, God hath forsaken him: persecute and take him; for
there is none to deliver him.

19:071:012 O God, be not far from me: O my God, make haste for my help.

19:071:013 Let them be confounded and consumed that are adversaries to my
soul; let them be covered with reproach and dishonour that
seek my hurt.

19:071:014 But I will hope continually, and will yet praise thee more and
more.

19:071:015 My mouth shall shew forth thy righteousness and thy salvation
all the day; for I know not the numbers thereof.

19:071:016 I will go in the strength of the Lord GOD: I will make mention
of thy righteousness, even of thine only.

19:071:017 O God, thou hast taught me from my youth: and hitherto have I
declared thy wondrous works.

19:071:018 Now also when I am old and greyheaded, O God, forsake me not;
until I have shewed thy strength unto this generation, and thy
power to every one that is to come.

19:071:019 Thy righteousness also, O God, is very high, who hast done
great things: O God, who is like unto thee!

19:071:020 Thou, which hast shewed me great and sore troubles, shalt
quicken me again, and shalt bring me up again from the depths
of the earth.

19:071:021 Thou shalt increase my greatness, and comfort me on every
side.

19:071:022 I will also praise thee with the psaltery, even thy truth, O
my God: unto thee will I sing with the harp, O thou Holy One
of Israel.

19:071:023 My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing unto thee; and my
soul, which thou hast redeemed.

19:071:024 My tongue also shall talk of thy righteousness all the day
long: for they are confounded, for they are brought unto
shame, that seek my hurt.

19:072:001 Give the king thy judgments, O God, and thy righteousness unto
the king's son.

19:072:002 He shall judge thy people with righteousness, and thy poor
with judgment.

19:072:003 The mountains shall bring peace to the people, and the little
hills, by righteousness.

19:072:004 He shall judge the poor of the people, he shall save the
children of the needy, and shall break in pieces the
oppressor.

19:072:005 They shall fear thee as long as the sun and moon endure,
throughout all generations.

19:072:006 He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass: as showers
that water the earth.

19:072:007 In his days shall the righteous flourish; and abundance of
peace so long as the moon endureth.

19:072:008 He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, and from the
river unto the ends of the earth.

19:072:009 They that dwell in the wilderness shall bow before him; and
his enemies shall lick the dust.

19:072:010 The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall bring presents:
the kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts.

19:072:011 Yea, all kings shall fall down before him: all nations shall
serve him.

19:072:012 For he shall deliver the needy when he crieth; the poor also,
and him that hath no helper.

19:072:013 He shall spare the poor and needy, and shall save the souls of
the needy.

19:072:014 He shall redeem their soul from deceit and violence: and
precious shall their blood be in his sight.

19:072:015 And he shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of
Sheba: prayer also shall be made for him continually; and
daily shall he be praised.

19:072:016 There shall be an handful of corn in the earth upon the top of
the mountains; the fruit thereof shall shake like Lebanon: and
they of the city shall flourish like grass of the earth.

19:072:017 His name shall endure for ever: his name shall be continued as
long as the sun: and men shall be blessed in him: all nations
shall call him blessed.

19:072:018 Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, who only doeth
wondrous things.

19:072:019 And blessed be his glorious name for ever: and let the whole
earth be filled with his glory; Amen, and Amen.

19:072:020 The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.

19:073:001 Truly God is good to Israel, even to such as are of a clean
heart.

19:073:002 But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had well
nigh slipped.

19:073:003 For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of
the wicked.

19:073:004 For there are no bands in their death: but their strength is
firm.

19:073:005 They are not in trouble as other men; neither are they plagued
like other men.

19:073:006 Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence
covereth them as a garment.

19:073:007 Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart
could wish.

19:073:008 They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression:
they speak loftily.

19:073:009 They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue
walketh through the earth.

19:073:010 Therefore his people return hither: and waters of a full cup
are wrung out to them.

19:073:011 And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the
most High?

19:073:012 Behold, these are the ungodly, who prosper in the world; they
increase in riches.

19:073:013 Verily I have cleansed my heart in vain, and washed my hands
in innocency.

19:073:014 For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every
morning.

19:073:015 If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against
the generation of thy children.

19:073:016 When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me;

19:073:017 Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I
their end.

19:073:018 Surely thou didst set them in slippery places: thou castedst
them down into destruction.

19:073:019 How are they brought into desolation, as in a moment! they are
utterly consumed with terrors.

19:073:020 As a dream when one awaketh; so, O Lord, when thou awakest,
thou shalt despise their image.

19:073:021 Thus my heart was grieved, and I was pricked in my reins.

19:073:022 So foolish was I, and ignorant: I was as a beast before thee.

19:073:023 Nevertheless I am continually with thee: thou hast holden me
by my right hand.

19:073:024 Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me
to glory.

19:073:025 Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth
that I desire beside thee.

19:073:026 My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my
heart, and my portion for ever.

19:073:027 For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish: thou hast
destroyed all them that go a whoring from thee.

19:073:028 But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust
in the Lord GOD, that I may declare all thy works.

19:074:001 O God, why hast thou cast us off for ever? why doth thine
anger smoke against the sheep of thy pasture?

19:074:002 Remember thy congregation, which thou hast purchased of old;
the rod of thine inheritance, which thou hast redeemed; this
mount Zion, wherein thou hast dwelt.

19:074:003 Lift up thy feet unto the perpetual desolations; even all that
the enemy hath done wickedly in the sanctuary.

19:074:004 Thine enemies roar in the midst of thy congregations; they set
up their ensigns for signs.

19:074:005 A man was famous according as he had lifted up axes upon the
thick trees.

19:074:006 But now they break down the carved work thereof at once with
axes and hammers.

19:074:007 They have cast fire into thy sanctuary, they have defiled by
casting down the dwelling place of thy name to the ground.

19:074:008 They said in their hearts, Let us destroy them together: they
have burned up all the synagogues of God in the land.

19:074:009 We see not our signs: there is no more any prophet: neither is
there among us any that knoweth how long.

19:074:010 O God, how long shall the adversary reproach? shall the enemy
blaspheme thy name for ever?

19:074:011 Why withdrawest thou thy hand, even thy right hand? pluck it
out of thy bosom.

19:074:012 For God is my King of old, working salvation in the midst of
the earth.

19:074:013 Thou didst divide the sea by thy strength: thou brakest the
heads of the dragons in the waters.

19:074:014 Thou brakest the heads of leviathan in pieces, and gavest him
to be meat to the people inhabiting the wilderness.

19:074:015 Thou didst cleave the fountain and the flood: thou driedst up
mighty rivers.

19:074:016 The day is thine, the night also is thine: thou hast prepared
the light and the sun.

19:074:017 Thou hast set all the borders of the earth: thou hast made
summer and winter.

19:074:018 Remember this, that the enemy hath reproached, O LORD, and
that the foolish people have blasphemed thy name.

19:074:019 O deliver not the soul of thy turtledove unto the multitude of
the wicked: forget not the congregation of thy poor for ever.

19:074:020 Have respect unto the covenant: for the dark places of the
earth are full of the habitations of cruelty.

19:074:021 O let not the oppressed return ashamed: let the poor and needy
praise thy name.

19:074:022 Arise, O God, plead thine own cause: remember how the foolish
man reproacheth thee daily.

19:074:023 Forget not the voice of thine enemies: the tumult of those
that rise up against thee increaseth continually.

19:075:001 Unto thee, O God, do we give thanks, unto thee do we give
thanks: for that thy name is near thy wondrous works declare.

19:075:002 When I shall receive the congregation I will judge uprightly.

19:075:003 The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I
bear up the pillars of it. Selah.

19:075:004 I said unto the fools, Deal not foolishly: and to the wicked,
Lift not up the horn:

19:075:005 Lift not up your horn on high: speak not with a stiff neck.

19:075:006 For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west,
nor from the south.

19:075:007 But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up
another.

19:075:008 For in the hand of the LORD there is a cup, and the wine is
red; it is full of mixture; and he poureth out of the same:
but the dregs thereof, all the wicked of the earth shall wring
them out, and drink them.

19:075:009 But I will declare for ever; I will sing praises to the God of
Jacob.

19:075:010 All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; but the horns
of the righteous shall be exalted.

19:076:001 In Judah is God known: his name is great in Israel.

19:076:002 In Salem also is his tabernacle, and his dwelling place in
Zion.

19:076:003 There brake he the arrows of the bow, the shield, and the
sword, and the battle. Selah.

19:076:004 Thou art more glorious and excellent than the mountains of
prey.

19:076:005 The stouthearted are spoiled, they have slept their sleep: and
none of the men of might have found their hands.

19:076:006 At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, both the chariot and horse are
cast into a dead sleep.

19:076:007 Thou, even thou, art to be feared: and who may stand in thy
sight when once thou art angry?

19:076:008 Thou didst cause judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth
feared, and was still,

19:076:009 When God arose to judgment, to save all the meek of the earth.
Selah.

19:076:010 Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: the remainder of
wrath shalt thou restrain.

19:076:011 Vow, and pay unto the LORD your God: let all that be round
about him bring presents unto him that ought to be feared.

19:076:012 He shall cut off the spirit of princes: he is terrible to the
kings of the earth.

19:077:001 I cried unto God with my voice, even unto God with my voice;
and he gave ear unto me.

19:077:002 In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord: my sore ran in the
night, and ceased not: my soul refused to be comforted.

19:077:003 I remembered God, and was troubled: I complained, and my
spirit was overwhelmed. Selah.

19:077:004 Thou holdest mine eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot
speak.

19:077:005 I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times.

19:077:006 I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with
mine own heart: and my spirit made diligent search.

19:077:007 Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favourable no
more?

19:077:008 Is his mercy clean gone for ever? doth his promise fail for
evermore?

19:077:009 Hath God forgotten to be gracious? hath he in anger shut up
his tender mercies? Selah.

19:077:010 And I said, This is my infirmity: but I will remember the
years of the right hand of the most High.

19:077:011 I will remember the works of the LORD: surely I will remember
thy wonders of old.

19:077:012 I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings.

19:077:013 Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as
our God?

19:077:014 Thou art the God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy
strength among the people.

19:077:015 Thou hast with thine arm redeemed thy people, the sons of
Jacob and Joseph. Selah.

19:077:016 The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they were
afraid: the depths also were troubled.

19:077:017 The clouds poured out water: the skies sent out a sound: thine
arrows also went abroad.

19:077:018 The voice of thy thunder was in the heaven: the lightnings
lightened the world: the earth trembled and shook.

19:077:019 Thy way is in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and
thy footsteps are not known.

19:077:020 Thou leddest thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and
Aaron.

19:078:001 Give ear, O my people, to my law: incline your ears to the
words of my mouth.

19:078:002 I will open my mouth in a parable: I will utter dark sayings
of old:

19:078:003 Which we have heard and known, and our fathers have told us.

19:078:004 We will not hide them from their children, shewing to the
generation to come the praises of the LORD, and his strength,
and his wonderful works that he hath done.

19:078:005 For he established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a law
in Israel, which he commanded our fathers, that they should
make them known to their children:

19:078:006 That the generation to come might know them, even the children
which should be born; who should arise and declare them to
their children:

19:078:007 That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the
works of God, but keep his commandments:

19:078:008 And might not be as their fathers, a stubborn and rebellious
generation; a generation that set not their heart aright, and
whose spirit was not stedfast with God.

19:078:009 The children of Ephraim, being armed, and carrying bows,
turned back in the day of battle.

19:078:010 They kept not the covenant of God, and refused to walk in his
law;

19:078:011 And forgat his works, and his wonders that he had shewed them.

19:078:012 Marvellous things did he in the sight of their fathers, in the
land of Egypt, in the field of Zoan.

19:078:013 He divided the sea, and caused them to pass through; and he
made the waters to stand as an heap.

19:078:014 In the daytime also he led them with a cloud, and all the
night with a light of fire.

19:078:015 He clave the rocks in the wilderness, and gave them drink as
out of the great depths.

19:078:016 He brought streams also out of the rock, and caused waters to
run down like rivers.

19:078:017 And they sinned yet more against him by provoking the most
High in the wilderness.

19:078:018 And they tempted God in their heart by asking meat for their
lust.

19:078:019 Yea, they spake against God; they said, Can God furnish a
table in the wilderness?

19:078:020 Behold, he smote the rock, that the waters gushed out, and the
streams overflowed; can he give bread also? can he provide
flesh for his people?

19:078:021 Therefore the LORD heard this, and was wroth: so a fire was
kindled against Jacob, and anger also came up against Israel;

19:078:022 Because they believed not in God, and trusted not in his
salvation:

19:078:023 Though he had commanded the clouds from above, and opened the
doors of heaven,

19:078:024 And had rained down manna upon them to eat, and had given them
of the corn of heaven.

19:078:025 Man did eat angels' food: he sent them meat to the full.

19:078:026 He caused an east wind to blow in the heaven: and by his power
he brought in the south wind.

19:078:027 He rained flesh also upon them as dust, and feathered fowls
like as the sand of the sea:

19:078:028 And he let it fall in the midst of their camp, round about
their habitations.

19:078:029 So they did eat, and were well filled: for he gave them their
own desire;

19:078:030 They were not estranged from their lust. But while their meat
was yet in their mouths,

19:078:031 The wrath of God came upon them, and slew the fattest of them,
and smote down the chosen men of Israel.

19:078:032 For all this they sinned still, and believed not for his
wondrous works.

19:078:033 Therefore their days did he consume in vanity, and their years
in trouble.

19:078:034 When he slew them, then they sought him: and they returned and
enquired early after God.

19:078:035 And they remembered that God was their rock, and the high God
their redeemer.

19:078:036 Nevertheless they did flatter him with their mouth, and they
lied unto him with their tongues.

19:078:037 For their heart was not right with him, neither were they
stedfast in his covenant.

19:078:038 But he, being full of compassion, forgave their iniquity, and
destroyed them not: yea, many a time turned he his anger away,
and did not stir up all his wrath.

19:078:039 For he remembered that they were but flesh; a wind that
passeth away, and cometh not again.

19:078:040 How oft did they provoke him in the wilderness, and grieve him
in the desert!

19:078:041 Yea, they turned back and tempted God, and limited the Holy
One of Israel.

19:078:042 They remembered not his hand, nor the day when he delivered
them from the enemy.

19:078:043 How he had wrought his signs in Egypt, and his wonders in the
field of Zoan.

19:078:044 And had turned their rivers into blood; and their floods, that
they could not drink.

19:078:045 He sent divers sorts of flies among them, which devoured them;
and frogs, which destroyed them.

19:078:046 He gave also their increase unto the caterpiller, and their
labour unto the locust.

19:078:047 He destroyed their vines with hail, and their sycomore trees
with frost.

19:078:048 He gave up their cattle also to the hail, and their flocks to
hot thunderbolts.

19:078:049 He cast upon them the fierceness of his anger, wrath, and
indignation, and trouble, by sending evil angels among them.

19:078:050 He made a way to his anger; he spared not their soul from
death, but gave their life over to the pestilence;

19:078:051 And smote all the firstborn in Egypt; the chief of their
strength in the tabernacles of Ham:

19:078:052 But made his own people to go forth like sheep, and guided
them in the wilderness like a flock.

19:078:053 And he led them on safely, so that they feared not: but the
sea overwhelmed their enemies.

19:078:054 And he brought them to the border of his sanctuary, even to
this mountain, which his right hand had purchased.

19:078:055 He cast out the heathen also before them, and divided them an
inheritance by line, and made the tribes of Israel to dwell in
their tents.

19:078:056 Yet they tempted and provoked the most high God, and kept not
his testimonies:

19:078:057 But turned back, and dealt unfaithfully like their fathers:
they were turned aside like a deceitful bow.

19:078:058 For they provoked him to anger with their high places, and
moved him to jealousy with their graven images.

19:078:059 When God heard this, he was wroth, and greatly abhorred
Israel:

19:078:060 So that he forsook the tabernacle of Shiloh, the tent which he
placed among men;

19:078:061 And delivered his strength into captivity, and his glory into
the enemy's hand.

19:078:062 He gave his people over also unto the sword; and was wroth
with his inheritance.

19:078:063 The fire consumed their young men; and their maidens were not
given to marriage.

19:078:064 Their priests fell by the sword; and their widows made no
lamentation.

19:078:065 Then the LORD awaked as one out of sleep, and like a mighty
man that shouteth by reason of wine.

19:078:066 And he smote his enemies in the hinder parts: he put them to a
perpetual reproach.

19:078:067 Moreover he refused the tabernacle of Joseph, and chose not
the tribe of Ephraim:

19:078:068 But chose the tribe of Judah, the mount Zion which he loved.

19:078:069 And he built his sanctuary like high palaces, like the earth
which he hath established for ever.

19:078:070 He chose David also his servant, and took him from the
sheepfolds:

19:078:071 From following the ewes great with young he brought him to
feed Jacob his people, and Israel his inheritance.

19:078:072 So he fed them according to the integrity of his heart; and
guided them by the skilfulness of his hands.

19:079:001 O god, the heathen are come into thine inheritance; thy holy
temple have they defiled; they have laid Jerusalem on heaps.

19:079:002 The dead bodies of thy servants have they given to be meat
unto the fowls of the heaven, the flesh of thy saints unto the
beasts of the earth.

19:079:003 Their blood have they shed like water round about Jerusalem;
and there was none to bury them.

19:079:004 We are become a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and
derision to them that are round about us.

19:079:005 How long, LORD? wilt thou be angry for ever? shall thy
jealousy burn like fire?
