-
I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint. My heart has turned to wax; it has melted within me.
-
My mouth is dried up like a potsherd, and my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth; you lay me in the dust of death.
-
Rescue me from the mouth of the lions; save me from the horns of the wild oxen.
-
The poor will eat and be satisfied; those who seek the Lord will praise him— may your hearts live forever!
-
The one who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not trust in an idol or swear by a false god.
-
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!
-
By the word of the Lord the heavens were made, their starry host by the breath of his mouth.
-
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.
-
The words of their mouths are wicked and deceitful; they fail to act wisely or do good.
-
They feast on the abundance of your house; you give them drink from your river of delights.
-
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.
