Psalms Words of Wisdom
Blessed is the man Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly For the LORD knows the way of the righteous, But the way of the ungodly
shall perish Serve the LORD with fear, And rejoice with trembling. Blessed are all those who put their trust in Him. But know that the LORD has set apart[a] for Himself him who is godly; The boastful shall not stand in Your sight; You hate all workers of iniquity.
You shall destroy those who speak falsehood; The LORD abhors the bloodthirsty
and deceitful man. But let all those rejoice who put their trust in You For You, O LORD, will bless the righteous; With favor You will surround
him as with a shield. The LORD has heard my supplication; The LORD will receive my prayer.
The LORD shall judge the peoples; Judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness,
And according to my integrity within me. God is a just judge, And God is angry with the wicked every day. Behold, the wicked brings forth iniquity But the LORD shall endure forever; He has prepared His throne for judgment He shall judge the world in righteousness, And He shall administer judgment
for the peoples in uprightness The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed, A refuge in times of
trouble And those who know Your name will put their trust in You; For You, LORD,
have not forsaken those who seek You The wicked is snared in the work of his own hands The wicked shall be turned into hell, And all the nations that forget
God For the wicked boasts of his heart’s desire; He blesses the greedy and
renounces the LORD. But You have seen, for You observe trouble and grief, To repay it by
Your hand. The helpless commits himself to You; You are the helper of
the fatherless The LORD is King forever and ever The LORD tests the righteous, But the wicked and the one who loves violence
His soul hates Upon the wicked He will rain coals; Fire and brimstone and a burning
wind For the LORD is righteous, He loves righteousness The words of the LORD are pure words I will sing to the LORD, Because He has dealt bountifully with me The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” For God is with the generation of the righteous. I have set the LORD always before me; Because He is at my right hand
I shall not be moved. The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer With the merciful You will show Yourself merciful; With a blameless man
You will show Yourself blameless With the pure You will show Yourself pure; And with the devious You will
show Yourself shrewd It is God who avenges me, And subdues the peoples under me
