5
For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith the
L
ORD
; I will set
him
in safety
from him that
puffeth at him.
6
The words of the L
ORD
are
pure words:
as
silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven
times.
7
Thou shalt keep them, O L
ORD
, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.
8
The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted.
CHAPTER 13
How long wilt thou forget me, O L
ORD
? for ever? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me?
2
How long shall I take counsel in my soul,
having
sorrow in my heart daily? how long shall
mine enemy be exalted over me?
3
Consider
and
hear me, O L
ORD
my God: lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the
sleep of
death;
4
Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him;
and
those that trouble me rejoice when
I am moved.
5
But I have trusted in thy mercy; my heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.
6
I will sing unto the L
ORD
, because he hath dealt bountifully with me.
CHAPTER 14
The fool hath said in his heart,
There is
no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable
works,
there is
none that doeth good.
2
The L
ORD
looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any
that did understand,
and
seek God.
3
They are all gone aside, they are
all
together become filthy:
there is
none that doeth good,
no, not one.
4
Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people
as
they eat bread,
and call not upon the L
ORD
.
5
There were they in great fear: for God
is
in the generation of the righteous.
6
Ye have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the L
ORD
is
his refuge.
7
Oh that the salvation of Israel
were come
out of Zion! when the L
ORD
bringeth back the
captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice,
and
Israel shall be glad.
CHAPTER 15
L
ORD
, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?
