Verses

• Psalm 1:1-3: How blessed is the one who does not follow the advice of the wicked, or stand in the pathway with sinners, or sit in the assembly of scoffers! Instead he finds pleasure in obeying the LORD's commands; he meditates on his commands day and night. He is like a tree planted by flowing streams; it yields its fruit at the proper time, and its leaves never fall off. He succeeds in everything he attempts.
  
  
• Psalm 1:4-6: Not so with the wicked! Instead they are like wind-driven chaff. For this reason the wicked cannot withstand judgment, nor can sinners join the assembly of the godly. Certainly the LORD guards the way of the godly, but the way of the wicked ends in destruction.
  
  
• Psalm 2:1-4: Why do the nations rebel? Why are the countries devising plots that will fail? The kings of the earth form a united front; the rulers collaborate against the LORD and his anointed king. They say, "Let's tear off the shackles they've put on us! Let's free ourselves from their ropes!" The one enthroned in heaven laughs in disgust; the Lord taunts them.
  
  
• Psalm 2:5-8: Then he angrily speaks to them and terrifies them in his rage, saying, "I myself have installed my king on Zion, my holy hill." The king says, "I will announce the Lord's decree. He said to me: 'You are my son! This very day I have become your father! Ask me, and I will give you the nations as your inheritance, the ends of the earth as your personal property.
  
  
• Psalm 2:9-12: You will break them with an iron scepter; you will smash them like a potter's jar!'" So now, you kings, do what is wise; you rulers of the earth, submit to correction! Serve the LORD in fear! Repent in terror! Give sincere homage! Otherwise he will be angry, and you will die because of your behavior, when his anger quickly ignites. How blessed are all who take shelter in him!
  
  
• Psalm 3:1-4: LORD, how numerous are my enemies! Many attack me. Many say about me, "God will not deliver him." (Selah) But you, LORD, are a shield that protects me; you are my glory and the one who restores me. To the LORD I cried out, and he answered me from his holy hill. (Selah)
  
  
• Psalm 3:5-8: I rested and slept; I awoke, for the LORD protects me. I am not afraid of the multitude of people who attack me from all directions. Rise up, LORD! Deliver me, my God! Yes, you will strike all my enemies on the jaw; you will break the teeth of the wicked. The LORD delivers; you show favor to your people. (Selah)
  
  
• Psalm 4:1-4: When I call out, answer me, O God who vindicates me! Though I am hemmed in, you will lead me into a wide, open place. Have mercy on me and respond to my prayer! You men, how long will you try to turn my honor into shame? How long will you love what is worthless and search for what is deceptive? (Selah) Realize that the LORD shows the godly special favor; the LORD responds when I cry out to him. Tremble with fear and do not sin! Meditate as you lie in bed, and repent of your ways! (Selah)
  
  
• Psalm 4:5-8: Offer the prescribed sacrifices and trust in the LORD! Many say, "Who can show us anything good?" Smile upon us, LORD! You make me happier than those who have abundant grain and wine. I will lie down and sleep peacefully, for you, LORD, make me safe and secure.
  
  
• Psalm 5:1-4: Listen to what I say, LORD! Carefully consider my complaint! Pay attention to my cry for help, my king and my God, for I am praying to you! LORD, in the morning you will hear me; in the morning I will present my case to you and then wait expectantly for an answer. Certainly you are not a God who approves of evil; evil people cannot dwell with you.
  
  
• Psalm 5:5-8: Arrogant people cannot stand in your presence; you hate all who behave wickedly. You destroy liars; the LORD despises violent and deceitful people. But as for me, because of your great faithfulness I will enter your house; I will bow down toward your holy temple as I worship you. LORD, lead me in your righteousness because of those who wait to ambush me, remove the obstacles in the way in which you are guiding me!
  
  
• Psalm 5:9-12: For they do not speak the truth; their stomachs are like the place of destruction, their throats like an open grave, their tongues like a steep slope leading into it. Condemn them, O God! May their own schemes be their downfall! Drive them away because of their many acts of insurrection, for they have rebelled against you. But may all who take shelter in you be happy! May they continually shout for joy! Shelter them so that those who are loyal to you may rejoice! Certainly you reward the godly, LORD. Like a shield you protect them in your good favor.
  
  
• Psalm 6:1-4: LORD, do not rebuke me in your anger! Do not discipline me in your raging fury! Have mercy on me, LORD, for I am frail! Heal me, LORD, for my bones are shaking! I am absolutely terrified, and you, LORD - how long will this continue? Relent, LORD, rescue me! Deliver me because of your faithfulness!
  
  
• Psalm 6:5-7: For no one remembers you in the realm of death, In Sheol who gives you thanks? I am exhausted as I groan; all night long I drench my bed in tears; my tears saturate the cushion beneath me. My eyes grow dim from suffering; they grow weak because of all my enemies.
  
  
• Psalm 6:8-10: Turn back from me, all you who behave wickedly, for the LORD has heard the sound of my weeping! The LORD has heard my appeal for mercy; the LORD has accepted my prayer. May all my enemies be humiliated and absolutely terrified! May they turn back and be suddenly humiliated!
  
  
• Psalm 7:1-2: O LORD my God, in you I have taken shelter. Deliver me from all who chase me! Rescue me! Otherwise they will rip me to shreds like a lion; they will tear me to bits and no one will be able to rescue me.
  
  
• Psalm 7:3-5: O LORD my God, if I have done what they say, or am guilty of unjust actions, or have wronged my ally, or helped his lawless enemy, may an enemy relentlessly chase me and catch me; may he trample me to death and leave me lying dishonored in the dust. (Selah)
  
  
• Psalm 7:6-9: Stand up angrily, LORD! Rise up with raging fury against my enemies! Wake up for my sake and execute the judgment you have decreed for them! The countries are assembled all around you; take once more your rightful place over them! The LORD judges the nations. Vindicate me, LORD, because I am innocent, because I am blameless, O Exalted One! May the evil deeds of the wicked come to an end! But make the innocent secure, O righteous God, you who examine inner thoughts and motives!
  
  
• Psalm 7:10-13: The Exalted God is my shield, the one who delivers the morally upright. God is a just judge; he is angry throughout the day. If a person does not repent, God sharpens his sword and prepares to shoot his bow. He prepares to use deadly weapons against him; he gets ready to shoot flaming arrows.
  
  
• Psalm 7:14-17: See the one who is pregnant with wickedness, who conceives destructive plans, and gives birth to harmful lies - he digs a pit and then falls into the hole he has made. He becomes the victim of his own destructive plans and the violence he intended for others falls on his own head. I will thank the LORD for his justice; I will sing praises to the sovereign LORD!
  
  
• Psalm 8:1-2: O LORD, our Lord, how magnificent is your reputation throughout the earth! You reveal your majesty in the heavens above! From the mouths of children and nursing babies you have ordained praise on account of your adversaries, so that you might put an end to the vindictive enemy.
  
  
• Psalm 8:3-4: When I look up at the heavens, which your fingers made, and see the moon and the stars, which you set in place, Of what importance is the human race, that you should notice them? Of what importance is mankind, that you should pay attention to them,
  
  
• Psalm 8:5-8: and make them a little less than the heavenly beings? You grant mankind honor and majesty; you appoint them to rule over your creation; you have placed everything under their authority, including all the sheep and cattle, as well as the wild animals, the birds in the sky, the fish in the sea and everything that moves through the currents of the seas.
  
  
• Psalm 8:9: O LORD, our Lord, how magnificent is your reputation throughout the earth!
  
  
• Psalm 9:1-4: I will thank the LORD with all my heart! I will tell about all your amazing deeds! I will be happy and rejoice in you! I will sing praises to you, O sovereign One!

• Psalm 9:5-8: You terrified the nations with your battle cry; you destroyed the wicked; you permanently wiped out all memory of them.

He judges the world fairly; he makes just legal decisions for the nations.
  
  
• Psalm 9:9-12: Consequently the LORD provides safety for the oppressed; he provides safety in times of trouble. Your loyal followers trust in you, for you, LORD, do not abandon those who seek your help. Sing praises to the LORD, who rules in Zion! Tell the nations what he has done! For the one who takes revenge against murderers took notice of the oppressed; he did not overlook their cry for help
  
  
• Psalm 9:13-16: when they prayed: "Have mercy on me, LORD! See how I am oppressed by those who hate me, O one who can snatch me away from the gates of death! Then I will tell about all your praiseworthy acts; in the gates of Daughter Zion I will rejoice because of your deliverance." The nations fell into the pit they had made; their feet were caught in the net they had hidden. The LORD revealed himself; he accomplished justice; the wicked were ensnared by their own actions. (Higgaion. Selah)
  
  
• Psalm 9:17-20: The wicked are turned back and sent to Sheol; this is the destiny of all the nations that ignore God, for the needy are not permanently ignored, the hopes of the oppressed are not forever dashed. Rise up, LORD! Don't let men be defiant! May the nations be judged in your presence! Terrify them, LORD! Let the nations know they are mere mortals! (Selah)
  
  
• Psalm 10:1-4: Why, LORD, do you stand far off? Why do you pay no attention during times of trouble? The wicked arrogantly chase the oppressed; the oppressed are trapped by the schemes the wicked have dreamed up. Yes, the wicked man boasts because he gets what he wants; the one who robs others curses and rejects the LORD. The wicked man is so arrogant he always thinks, "God won't hold me accountable; he doesn't care."
  
  
• Psalm 10:5-6: He is secure at all times. He has no regard for your commands; he disdains all his enemies. He says to himself, "I will never be upended, because I experience no calamity."
  
  
• Psalm 10:7-9: His mouth is full of curses and deceptive, harmful words; his tongue injures and destroys. He waits in ambush near the villages; in hidden places he kills the innocent. His eyes look for some unfortunate victim. He lies in ambush in a hidden place, like a lion in a thicket; he lies in ambush, waiting to catch the oppressed; he catches the oppressed by pulling in his net.
  
  
• Psalm 10:10-13: His victims are crushed and beaten down; they are trapped in his sturdy nets. He says to himself, "God overlooks it; he does not pay attention; he never notices." Rise up, LORD!

• Psalm 10:14-16: You have taken notice, for you always see one who inflicts pain and suffering. The unfortunate victim entrusts his cause to you; you deliver the fatherless.

When the foundations are destroyed, what can the godly accomplish?"
  
  
• Psalm 11:4-7: The LORD is in his holy temple; the LORD's throne is in heaven. His eyes watch; his eyes examine all people.

Certainly the LORD is just; he rewards godly deeds; the upright will experience his favor.
  
  
• Psalm 12:1-4: Deliver, LORD! For the godly have disappeared; people of integrity have vanished. People lie to one another; they flatter and deceive.

• Psalm 12:5-8: "Because of the violence done to the oppressed, because of the painful cries of the needy, I will spring into action," says the LORD. "I will provide the safety they so desperately desire." The LORD's words are absolutely reliable. They are as untainted as silver purified in a furnace on the ground, where it is thoroughly refined. You, LORD, will protect them; you will continually shelter each one from these evil people, for the wicked seem to be everywhere, when people promote evil.
  
  
• Psalm 13:1-2: How long, LORD, will you continue to ignore me? How long will you pay no attention to me? How long must I worry, and suffer in broad daylight? How long will my enemy gloat over me?
  
  
• Psalm 13:3-6: Look at me! Answer me, O LORD my God! Revive me, or else I will die! Then my enemy will say, "I have defeated him!" Then my foes will rejoice because I am upended. But I trust in your faithfulness. May I rejoice because of your deliverance! I will sing praises to the LORD when he vindicates me.
  
  
• Psalm 14:1-4: Fools say to themselves, "There is no God." They sin and commit evil deeds; none of them does what is right. The LORD looks down from heaven at the human race, to see if there is anyone who is wise and seeks God. Everyone rejects God; they are all morally corrupt. None of them does what is right, not even one! All those who behave wickedly do not understand - those who devour my people as if they were eating bread, and do not call out to the LORD.
  
  
• Psalm 14:5-7: They are absolutely terrified, for God defends the godly. You want to humiliate the oppressed, even though the LORD is their shelter. I wish the deliverance of Israel would come from Zion! When the LORD restores the well-being of his people, may Jacob rejoice, may Israel be happy!
  
  
• Psalm 15:1: LORD, who may be a guest in your home? Who may live on your holy hill?
  
  
• Psalm 15:2-5: Whoever lives a blameless life, does what is right, and speaks honestly. He does not slander, or do harm to others, or insult his neighbor.

He does not take bribes to testify against the innocent. The one who lives like this will never be upended.
  
  
• Psalm 16:1-3: Protect me, O God, for I have taken shelter in you. I say to the LORD, "You are the Lord, my only source of well-being." As for God's chosen people who are in the land, and the leading officials I admired so much -
  
  
• Psalm 16:4-6: their troubles multiply, they desire other gods. I will not pour out drink offerings of blood to their gods, nor will I make vows in the name of their gods. LORD, you give me stability and prosperity; you make my future secure. It is as if I have been given fertile fields or received a beautiful tract of land.
  
  
• Psalm 16:7-8: I will praise the LORD who guides me; yes, during the night I reflect and learn. I constantly trust in the LORD; because he is at my right hand, I will not be upended.
  
  
• Psalm 16:9-11: So my heart rejoices and I am happy; My life is safe. You will not abandon me to Sheol; you will not allow your faithful follower to see the Pit. You lead me in the path of life; I experience absolute joy in your presence; you always give me sheer delight.

• Psalm 17:6-9: I call to you for you will answer me, O God. Listen to me! Hear what I say! Accomplish awesome, faithful deeds, you who powerfully deliver those who look to you for protection from their enemies. Protect me as you would protect the pupil of your eye! Hide me in the shadow of your wings! Protect me from the wicked men who attack me, my enemies who crowd around me for the kill.
  
  
• Psalm 17:10-12: They are calloused; they speak arrogantly. They attack me, now they surround me; they intend to throw me to the ground. He is like a lion that wants to tear its prey to bits, like a young lion crouching in hidden places.
  
  
• Psalm 17:13-15: Rise up, LORD! Confront him! Knock him down! Use your sword to rescue me from the wicked man! LORD, use your power to deliver me from these murderers, from the murderers of this world! They enjoy prosperity; you overwhelm them with the riches they desire. They have many children, and leave their wealth to their offspring. As for me, because I am innocent I will see your face; when I awake you will reveal yourself to me.
  
  
• Psalm 18:1-3: He said: "I love you, LORD, my source of strength! The LORD is my high ridge, my stronghold, my deliverer.

• Psalm 18:4-6: The waves of death engulfed me, the currents of chaos overwhelmed me. The ropes of Sheol tightened around me, the snares of death trapped me. In my distress I called to the LORD; I cried out to my God. From his heavenly temple he heard my voice; he listened to my cry for help.
  
  
• Psalm 18:7-9: The earth heaved and shook; the roots of the mountains trembled; they heaved because he was angry. Smoke ascended from his nose; fire devoured as it came from his mouth; he hurled down fiery coals. He made the sky sink as he descended; a thick cloud was under his feet.

• Psalm 18:16-19: He reached down from above and took hold of me; he pulled me from the surging water. He rescued me from my strong enemy, from those who hate me, for they were too strong for me.

• Psalm 18:28-30: Indeed, you are my lamp, LORD. My God illuminates the darkness around me. Indeed, with your help I can charge against an army; by my God's power I can jump over a wall.

• Psalm 18:31-34: Indeed, who is God besides the LORD? Who is a protector besides our God? The one true God gives me strength; he removes the obstacles in my way.

• Psalm 18:35-38: You give me your protective shield; your right hand supports me; your willingness to help enables me to prevail. You widen my path; my feet do not slip. I chase my enemies and catch them; I do not turn back until I wipe them out. I beat them to death; they fall at my feet.
  
  
• Psalm 18:39-42: You give me strength for battle; you make my foes kneel before me. You make my enemies retreat; I destroy those who hate me.

• Psalm 18:43-45: You rescue me from a hostile army; you make me a leader of nations; people over whom I had no authority are now my subjects. When they hear of my exploits, they submit to me.
