Bible. Psalms
19:139:015 My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret,
and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.
19:139:016 Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in
thy book all my members were written, which in continuance
were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.
19:139:017 How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great
is the sum of them!
19:139:018 If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand:
when I awake, I am still with thee.
19:139:019 Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me
therefore, ye bloody men.
19:139:020 For they speak against thee wickedly, and thine enemies take
thy name in vain.
19:139:021 Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I
grieved with those that rise up against thee?
19:139:022 I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.
19:139:023 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my
thoughts:
19:139:024 And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the
way everlasting.
19:140:001 Deliver me, O LORD, from the evil man: preserve me from the
violent man;
19:140:002 Which imagine mischiefs in their heart; continually are they
gathered together for war.
19:140:003 They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent; adders'
poison is under their lips. Selah.
19:140:004 Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked; preserve me
from the violent man; who have purposed to overthrow my
goings.
19:140:005 The proud have hid a snare for me, and cords; they have spread
a net by the wayside; they have set gins for me. Selah.
19:140:006 I said unto the LORD, Thou art my God: hear the voice of my
supplications, O LORD.
19:140:007 O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation, thou hast
covered my head in the day of battle.
19:140:008 Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked: further not his
wicked device; lest they exalt themselves. Selah.
19:140:009 As for the head of those that compass me about, let the
mischief of their own lips cover them.
19:140:010 Let burning coals fall upon them: let them be cast into the
fire; into deep pits, that they rise not up again.
19:140:011 Let not an evil speaker be established in the earth: evil
shall hunt the violent man to overthrow him.
19:140:012 I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted,
and the right of the poor.
19:140:013 Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto thy name: the
upright shall dwell in thy presence.
19:141:001 Lord, I cry unto thee: make haste unto me; give ear unto my
voice, when I cry unto thee.
