PSALMS
- 29The righteous shall inherit the land,
- And dwell therein for ever.
- פ30The mouth of the righteous uttereth wisdom,
- And his tongue speaketh justice.
- 31The law of his God is in his heart;
- None of his steps slide.
- צ32The wicked watcheth the righteous,
- And seeketh to slay him.
- 33The Lord will not leave him in his hand,
- Nor suffer him to be condemned when he is judged.
- ק34Wait for the Lord, and keep His way,
- And He will exalt thee to inherit the land;
- When the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it.
- ר35I have seen the wicked in great power,
- And spreading himself like a leafy tree in its native soil.
- 36But one passed by, and, lo, he was not;
- Yea, I sought him, but he could not be found.
- ש37Mark the man of integrity, and behold the upright;
- For there is a future for the man of peace.
- 38But transgressors shall be destroyed together;
- The future of the wicked shall be cut off.
- ת39But the salvation of the righteous is of the Lord;
- He is their stronghold in the time of trouble.
- 40And the Lord helpeth them, and delivereth them;
- He delivereth them from the wicked, and saveth them,
- Because they have taken refuge in Him.
38 A Psalm of David, to make memorial.
- 2O Lord, rebuke me not in Thine anger;
- Neither chasten me in Thy wrath.
- 3For Thine arrows are gone deep into me,
- And Thy hand is come down upon me.
- 4There is no soundness in my flesh because of Thine indignation;
- Neither is there any health in my bones because of my sin.
- 5For mine iniquities are gone over my head;
- As a heavy burden they are too heavy for me.
- 6My wounds are noisome, they fester,
- Because of my foolishness.
- 7I am bent and bowed down greatly;
- I go mourning all the day.
- 8For my loins are filled with burning;
- And there is no soundness in my flesh.
- 9I am benumbed and sore crushed;
- I groan by reason of the moaning of my heart.
- 10Lord, all my desire is before Thee;
- And my sighing is not hid from Thee.
- 11My heart fluttereth, my strength faileth me;
- As for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me.
- 12My friends and my companions stand aloof from my plague;
- And my kinsmen stand afar off.
- 13They also that seek after my life lay snares for me;
