-
How long will you people turn my glory into shame? How long will you love delusions and seek false gods?
-
Those who know your name trust in you, for you, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek you.
-
Lord, see how my enemies persecute me! Have mercy and lift me up from the gates of death,
-
In his pride the wicked man does not seek him; in all his thoughts there is no room for God.
-
He says to himself, “God will never notice; he covers his face and never sees.”
-
But you, God, see the trouble of the afflicted; you consider their grief and take it in hand. The victims commit themselves to you; you are the helper of the fatherless.
-
For the Lord is righteous, he loves justice; the upright will see his face.
-
The Lord looks down from heaven on all mankind to see if there are any who understand, any who seek God.
-
because you will not abandon me to the realm of the dead, nor will you let your faithful one see decay.
-
Let my vindication come from you; may your eyes see what is right.
-
As for me, I will be vindicated and will see your face; when I awake, I will be satisfied with seeing your likeness.
-
All who see me mock me; they hurl insults, shaking their heads.
-
The poor will eat and be satisfied; those who seek the Lord will praise him— may your hearts live forever!
-
Such is the generation of those who seek him, who seek your face, God of Jacob.
-
See how numerous are my enemies and how fiercely they hate me!
-
One thing I ask from the Lord, this only do I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the Lord and to seek him in his temple.
-
My heart says of you, “Seek his face!” Your face, Lord, I will seek.
-
I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.
-
Because of all my enemies, I am the utter contempt of my neighbors and an object of dread to my closest friends— those who see me on the street flee from me.
-
From heaven the Lord looks down and sees all mankind;
-
Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.
-
The lions may grow weak and hungry, but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing.
-
Whoever of you loves life and desires to see many good days,
-
Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.
-
May those who seek my life be disgraced and put to shame; may those who plot my ruin be turned back in dismay.
