-
Fill my heart with joy when their grain and new wine abound.
-
Not a word from their mouth can be trusted; their heart is filled with malice. Their throat is an open grave; with their tongues they tell lies.
-
My shield is God Most High, who saves the upright in heart.
-
Psalm 9
For the director of music. To the tune of “The Death of the Son.” A psalm of David.
I will give thanks to you, Lord, with all my heart; I will tell of all your wonderful deeds.
-
He boasts about the cravings of his heart; he blesses the greedy and reviles the Lord.
-
For look, the wicked bend their bows; they set their arrows against the strings to shoot from the shadows at the upright in heart.
-
How long must I wrestle with my thoughts and day after day have sorrow in my heart? How long will my enemy triumph over me?
-
But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation.
-
Psalm 14
For the director of music. Of David.
The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, their deeds are vile; there is no one who does good.
-
The one whose walk is blameless, who does what is righteous, who speaks the truth from their heart;
-
I will praise the Lord, who counsels me; even at night my heart instructs me.
-
Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will rest secure,
-
Though you probe my heart, though you examine me at night and test me, you will find that I have planned no evil; my mouth has not transgressed.
-
They all lose heart; they come trembling from their strongholds.
-
The precepts of the Lord are right, giving joy to the heart. The commands of the Lord are radiant, giving light to the eyes.
-
May these words of my mouth and this meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer.
-
May he give you the desire of your heart and make all your plans succeed.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
