Versliste
Wait for Jehovah, and keep his way,And he will exalt thee to inherit the land:When the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it.
I have seen the wicked in great power,And spreading himself like a green tree in its native soil.
{Or, Yet he passed away}But one passed by, and, lo, he was not:Yea, I sought him, but he could not be found.
Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright;For there is a happy end to the man of peace.
As for transgressors, they shall be destroyed together;The end of the wicked shall be cut off.
But the salvation of the righteous is of Jehovah;He is their stronghold in the time of trouble.
And Jehovah helpeth them, and rescueth them;He rescueth them from the wicked, and saveth them,Because they have taken refuge in him.
A Psalm of David.The earth is Jehovah's, and the fulness thereof;The world, and they that dwell therein.
Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment,Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
Until I went into the sanctuary of God,And considered their latter end.
Remember them that had the rule over you, men that spake unto you the word of God; and considering the issue of their {Greek: manner of life.}life, imitate their faith.
Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob's trouble; but he shall be saved out of it.
But who can abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap:
and he will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he will purify the sons of Levi, and refine them as gold and silver; and they shall offer unto Jehovah offerings in righteousness.
