He makes a pit, digging it out, and falls into the hole that he has made.

Out of the mouth of babies and infants, you have established strength because of your foes, to still the enemy and the avenger.

You have rebuked the nations; you have made the wicked perish; you have blotted out their name forever and ever.

The enemy came to an end in everlasting ruins; their cities you rooted out; the very memory of them has perished.

His ways prosper at all times; your judgments are on high, out of his sight; as for all his foes, he puffs at them.

Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion! When the Lord restores the fortunes of his people, let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.

Taste and See That the Lord Is Good

Of David, when he changed his behavior before Abimelech, so that he drove him out, and he went away.

I will bless the Lord at all times; his praise shall continually be in my mouth.

This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him and saved him out of all his troubles.

When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears and delivers them out of all their troubles.

Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers him out of them all.

For he flatters himself in his own eyes that his iniquity cannot be found out and hated.

Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him; fret not yourself over the one who prospers in his way, over the man who carries out evil devices!

He drew me up from the pit of destruction, out of the miry bog, and set my feet upon a rock, making my steps secure.

And when one comes to see me, he utters empty words, while his heart gathers iniquity; when he goes out, he tells it abroad.

They say, “A deadly thing is poured out on him; he will not rise again from where he lies.”

These things I remember, as I pour out my soul: how I would go with the throng and lead them in procession to the house of God with glad shouts and songs of praise, a multitude keeping festival.

But you have rejected us and disgraced us and have not gone out with our armies.

Create in Me a Clean Heart, O God

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David, when Nathan the prophet went to him, after he had gone in to Bathsheba.

My companion stretched out his hand against his friends; he violated his covenant.

But you, O God, will cast them down into the pit of destruction; men of blood and treachery shall not live out half their days. But I will trust in you.

I cry out to God Most High, to God who fulfills his purpose for me.

He will send from heaven and save me; he will put to shame him who tramples on me. Selah God will send out his steadfast love and his faithfulness!

to him who rides in the heavens, the ancient heavens; behold, he sends out his voice, his mighty voice.

I am weary with my crying out; my throat is parched. My eyes grow dim with waiting for my God.

Pour out your indignation upon them, and let your burning anger overtake them.

Let them be blotted out of the book of the living; let them not be enrolled among the righteous.

Their eyes swell out through fatness; their hearts overflow with follies.

For in the hand of the Lord there is a cup with foaming wine, well mixed, and he pours out from it, and all the wicked of the earth shall drain it down to the dregs.

In the day of my trouble I seek the Lord; in the night my hand is stretched out without wearying; my soul refuses to be comforted.

The clouds poured out water; the skies gave forth thunder; your arrows flashed on every side.

He made streams come out of the rock and caused waters to flow down like rivers.

He struck the rock so that water gushed out and streams overflowed. Can he also give bread or provide meat for his people?”

He caused the east wind to blow in the heavens, and by his power he led out the south wind;

Then he led out his people like sheep and guided them in the wilderness like a flock.

He drove out nations before them; he apportioned them for a possession and settled the tribes of Israel in their tents.

They have poured out their blood like water all around Jerusalem, and there was no one to bury them.

I am the Lord your God, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt. Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it.

They say, “Come, let us wipe them out as a nation; let the name of Israel be remembered no more!”

I Cry Out Day and Night Before You

A Song. A Psalm of the Sons of Korah. To the choirmaster: according to Mahalath Leannoth. A Maskil of Heman the Ezrahite.

O Lord, God of my salvation, I cry out day and night before you.

my eye grows dim through sorrow. Every day I call upon you, O Lord; I spread out my hands to you.

The enemy shall not outwit him; the wicked shall not humble him.

Tremble at the Presence of the Lord

When Israel went out from Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language,

Out of my distress I called on the Lord; the Lord answered me and set me free.

They surrounded me like bees; they went out like a fire among thorns; in the name of the Lord I cut them off!

Open my eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of your law.

And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth, for my hope is in your rules.

Trouble and anguish have found me out, but your commandments are my delight.

The Lord will keep your going out and your coming in from this time forth and forevermore.

He who goes out weeping, bearing the seed for sowing, shall come home with shouts of joy, bringing his sheaves with him.

My Soul Waits for the Lord

A Song of Ascents.

Out of the depths I cry to you, O Lord!

to him who spread out the earth above the waters, for his steadfast love endures forever;

and brought Israel out from among them, for his steadfast love endures forever;

with a strong hand and an outstretched arm, for his steadfast love endures forever;

Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve my life; you stretch out your hand against the wrath of my enemies, and your right hand delivers me.

You search out my path and my lying down and are acquainted with all my ways.

You Are My Refuge

A Maskil of David, when he was in the cave. A Prayer.

With my voice I cry out to the Lord; with my voice I plead for mercy to the Lord.

I pour out my complaint before him; I tell my trouble before him.

Bring me out of prison, that I may give thanks to your name! The righteous will surround me, for you will deal bountifully with me.

I stretch out my hands to you; my soul thirsts for you like a parched land. Selah

For your name's sake, O Lord, preserve my life! In your righteousness bring my soul out of trouble!

Flash forth the lightning and scatter them; send out your arrows and rout them!

Stretch out your hand from on high; rescue me and deliver me from the many waters, from the hand of foreigners,

The Lord builds up Jerusalem; he gathers the outcasts of Israel.

He sends out his command to the earth; his word runs swiftly.

He sends out his word, and melts them; he makes his wind blow and the waters flow.
