-
Relieve the troubles of my heart and free me from my anguish.
-
Test me, Lord, and try me, examine my heart and my mind;
-
Though an army besiege me, my heart will not fear; though war break out against me, even then I will be confident.
-
My heart says of you, “Seek his face!” Your face, Lord, I will seek.
-
Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.
-
Do not drag me away with the wicked, with those who do evil, who speak cordially with their neighbors but harbor malice in their hearts.
-
The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him.
-
that my heart may sing your praises and not be silent. Lord my God, I will praise you forever.
-
Be strong and take heart, all you who hope in the Lord.
-
Rejoice in the Lord and be glad, you righteous; sing, all you who are upright in heart!
-
But the plans of the Lord stand firm forever, the purposes of his heart through all generations.
-
he who forms the hearts of all, who considers everything they do.
-
In him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in his holy name.
-
Psalm 36
For the director of music. Of David the servant of the Lord.
I have a message from God in my heart concerning the sinfulness of the wicked: There is no fear of God before their eyes.
-
Continue your love to those who know you, your righteousness to the upright in heart.
-
Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.
-
But their swords will pierce their own hearts, and their bows will be broken.
-
The law of their God is in their hearts; their feet do not slip.
-
I am feeble and utterly crushed; I groan in anguish of heart.
-
My heart pounds, my strength fails me; even the light has gone from my eyes.
-
my heart grew hot within me. While I meditated, the fire burned; then I spoke with my tongue:
-
I desire to do your will, my God; your law is within my heart.”
-
I do not hide your righteousness in my heart; I speak of your faithfulness and your saving help. I do not conceal your love and your faithfulness from the great assembly.
-
For troubles without number surround me; my sins have overtaken me, and I cannot see. They are more than the hairs of my head, and my heart fails within me.
-
When one of them comes to see me, he speaks falsely, while his heart gathers slander; then he goes out and spreads it around.
