Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? he hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require [it].
But the LORD is my defence; and my God [is] the rock of my refuge.
To him that stretched out the earth above the waters: for his mercy [endureth] for ever.
The Lord at thy right hand shall strike through kings in the day of his wrath.
The moon and stars to rule by night: for his mercy [endureth] for ever.
[There is] no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the LORD.
The getting of treasures by a lying tongue [is] a vanity tossed to and fro of them that seek death.
Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and a derision to them that are round about us.
While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.
Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech, [that] I dwell in the tents of Kedar!
