The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against his anointed, saying,

Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.

Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.

Let the enemy persecute my soul, and take it; yea, let him tread down my life upon the earth, and lay mine honour in the dust. Selah.

O Lord, our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens.

O Lord our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!

To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may no more oppress.

The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.

But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.

They have now compassed us in our steps: they have set their eyes bowing down to the earth;

Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations also of the hills moved and were shaken, because he was wroth.

Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,

Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.

All they that be fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul.

The earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.

His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth.

He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of the Lord.

Let all the earth fear the Lord: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.

From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth.

The face of the Lord is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.

For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the Lord, they shall inherit the earth.

But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.

For such as be blessed of him shall inherit the earth; and they that be cursed of him shall be cut off.

The Lord will preserve him, and keep him alive; and he shall be blessed upon the earth: and thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of his enemies.

For our soul is bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth unto the earth.
