A PsalmH4210 of AsaphH623. Truly GodH430 is goodH2896 to IsraelH3478, even to such as are of a cleanH1249 heartH3824. {of: or, for} {Truly: or, Yet} {of…: Heb. clean of heart}
But as for me, my feetH7272 were almostH4592 goneH5186+H5186; my stepsH838 had well nighH369 slippedH8210.
For I was enviousH7065 at the foolishH1984, when I sawH7200 the prosperityH7965 of the wickedH7563.
For there are no bandsH2784 in their deathH4194: but their strengthH193 is firmH1277. {firm: Heb. fat}
They are not in troubleH5999 as other menH582; neither are they plaguedH5060 likeH5973 other menH120. {in…: Heb. in the trouble of other men} {like: Heb. with}
Therefore prideH1346 compasseth them about as a chainH6059; violenceH2555 coverethH5848 them as a garmentH7897.
Their eyesH5869 stand outH3318 with fatnessH2459: they have moreH5674 than heartH3824 could wishH4906. {have…: Heb. pass the thoughts of the heart}
They are corruptH4167, and speakH1696 wickedlyH7451 concerning oppressionH6233: they speakH1696 loftilyH4791.
They setH8371 their mouthH6310 against the heavensH8064, and their tongueH3956 walkethH1980 through the earthH776.
Therefore his peopleH5971 returnH7725+H7725 hitherH1988: and watersH4325 of a fullH4392 cup are wrung outH4680 to them.
And they sayH559, How doth GodH410 knowH3045? and is thereH3426 knowledgeH1844 in the most HighH5945?
Behold, these are the ungodlyH7563, who prosperH7961 in the worldH5769; they increaseH7685 in richesH2428.
Verily I have cleansedH2135 my heartH3824 in vainH7385, and washedH7364 my handsH3709 in innocencyH5356.
For all the dayH3117 long have I been plaguedH5060, and chastenedH8433 every morningH1242. {chastened: Heb. my chastisement was}
If I sayH559, I will speakH5608 thusH3644; behold, I should offendH898 against the generationH1755 of thy childrenH1121.
When I thoughtH2803 to knowH3045 this, it was too painfulH5999 for meH5869; {too…: Heb. labour in mine eyes}
Until I wentH935 into the sanctuaryH4720 of GodH410; then understoodH995 I their endH319.
Surely thou didst setH7896 them in slippery placesH2513: thou castedst them downH5307 into destructionH4876.
How are they brought into desolationH8047, as in a momentH7281! they are utterlyH5486 consumedH8552 with terrorsH1091.
As a dreamH2472 when one awakethH6974; so, O LordH136, when thou awakestH5782, thou shalt despiseH959 their imageH6754.
Thus my heartH3824 was grievedH2556, and I was prickedH8150 in my reinsH3629.
So foolishH1198 was I, and ignorantH3045: I was as a beastH929 before thee. {ignorant: Heb. I knew not} {before Heb. with}
Nevertheless I am continuallyH8548 with thee: thou hast holdenH270 me by my rightH3225 handH3027.
Thou shalt guideH5148 me with thy counselH6098, and afterwardH310 receiveH3947 me to gloryH3519.
Whom have I in heavenH8064 but thee? and there is none upon earthH776 that I desireH2654 beside thee.
My fleshH7607 and my heartH3824 failethH3615: but GodH430 is the strengthH6697 of my heartH3824, and my portionH2506 for everH5769. {strength: Heb. rock}
For, lo, they that are farH7369 from thee shall perishH6: thou hast destroyedH6789 all them that go a whoringH2181 from thee.
ButH589 it is goodH2896 for me to draw nearH7132 to GodH430: I have putH7896 my trustH4268 in the LordH136 GODH3069, that I may declareH5608 all thy worksH4399.
AndG2532 thisG5124 gospelG2098 of the kingdomG932 shall be preachedG2784 inG1722 allG3650 the worldG3625 forG1519 a witnessG3142 unto allG3956 nationsG1484; andG2532 thenG5119 shall the endG5056 comeG2240.
WhenG3752 ye thereforeG3767 shall seeG1492 the abominationG946 of desolationG2050, spoken ofG4483 byG1223 DanielG1158 the prophetG4396, standG2476 inG1722 the holyG40 placeG5117, (whoso readethG314, let him understandG3539:)
ThenG5119 let them which be inG1722 JudaeaG2449 fleeG5343 intoG1909 the mountainsG3735:
Let him which is onG1909 the housetopG1430 notG3361 come downG2597 to takeG142 any thingG5100 out ofG1537 hisG846 houseG3614:
NeitherG3361 let him which is inG1722 the fieldG68 returnG1994 backG3694 to takeG142 hisG846 clothesG2440.
AndG1161 woeG3759 unto them that areG2192 withG1722 childG1064, andG2532 to them that give suckG2337 inG1722 thoseG1565 daysG2250!
ButG1161 pray yeG4336 thatG3363 yourG5216 flightG5437 beG1096 notG3363 in the winterG5494, neitherG3366 onG1722 the sabbath dayG4521:
Until I wentH935 into the sanctuaryH4720 of GodH410; then understoodH995 I their endH319.
Therefore also now, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, turnH7725 ye even to me with all your heartH3824, and with fastingH6685, and with weepingH1065, and with mourningH4553:
And rendH7167 your heartH3824, and not your garmentsH899, and turnH7725 unto the LORDH3068 your GodH430: for he is graciousH2587 and mercifulH7349, slowH750 to angerH639, and of greatH7227 kindnessH2617, and repentethH5162 him of the evilH7451.
Who knowethH3045 if he will returnH7725 and repentH5162, and leaveH7604 a blessingH1293 behindH310 him; even a meat offeringH4503 and a drink offeringH5262 unto the LORDH3068 your GodH430?
BlowH8628 the trumpetH7782 in ZionH6726, sanctifyH6942 a fastH6685, callH7121 a solemn assemblyH6116:
GatherH622 the peopleH5971, sanctifyH6942 the congregationH6951, assembleH6908 the eldersH2205, gatherH622 the childrenH5768, and those that suckH3243 the breastsH7699: let the bridegroomH2860 go forthH3318 of his chamberH2315, and the brideH3618 out of her closetH2646.
Let the priestsH3548, the ministersH8334 of the LORDH3068, weepH1058 between the porchH197 and the altarH4196, and let them sayH559, SpareH2347 thy peopleH5971, O LORDH3068, and giveH5414 not thine heritageH5159 to reproachH2781, that the heathenH1471 should rule overH4910 them: wherefore should they sayH559 among the peopleH5971, Where is their GodH430? {rule over: or, use a byword against}
And it shall come to pass, that in all the landH776, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, twoH8147 partsH6310 therein shall be cut offH3772 and dieH1478; but the thirdH7992 shall be leftH3498 therein.
OH1945 AssyrianH804, the rodH7626 of mine angerH639, and the staffH4294 in their handH3027 is mine indignationH2195. {O…: or, Woe to the Assyrian: Heb. Asshur} {and: or, though}
OH1945 AssyrianH804, the rodH7626 of mine angerH639, and the staffH4294 in their handH3027 is mine indignationH2195. {O…: or, Woe to the Assyrian: Heb. Asshur} {and: or, though}
And at the timeH6256 of the endH7093 shall the kingH4428 of the southH5045 pushH5055 at him: and the kingH4428 of the northH6828 shall come against him like a whirlwindH8175, with chariotsH7393, and with horsemenH6571, and with manyH7227 shipsH591; and he shall enterH935 into the countriesH776, and shall overflowH7857 and pass overH5674.
Surely thou didst setH7896 them in slippery placesH2513: thou castedst them downH5307 into destructionH4876.
How are they brought into desolationH8047, as in a momentH7281! they are utterlyH5486 consumedH8552 with terrorsH1091.
MaschilH4905 of AsaphH623. O GodH430, why hast thou cast us offH2186 for everH5331? why doth thine angerH639 smokeH6225 against the sheepH6629 of thy pastureH4830? {Maschil…: or, A Psalm for Asaph to give instruction}
RememberH2142 thy congregationH5712, which thou hast purchasedH7069 of oldH6924; the rodH7626 of thine inheritanceH5159, which thou hast redeemedH1350; this mountH2022 ZionH6726, wherein thou hast dweltH7931. {rod: or, tribe}
Lift upH7311 thy feetH6471 unto the perpetualH5331 desolationsH4876; even all that the enemyH341 hath done wickedlyH7489 in the sanctuaryH6944.
Thine enemiesH6887 roarH7580 in the midstH7130 of thy congregationsH4150; they set upH7760 their ensignsH226 for signsH226.
A man was famousH3045 according as he had lifted upH935+H4605 axesH7134 upon the thickH5442 treesH6086.
But now they break downH1986 the carved workH6603 thereof at onceH3162 with axesH3781 and hammersH3597.
They have castH7971 fireH784 into thy sanctuaryH4720, they have defiledH2490 by casting down the dwelling placeH4908 of thy nameH8034 to the groundH776. {They have cast…: Heb. They have sent thy sanctuary unto the fire}
They saidH559 in their heartsH3820, Let us destroyH3238 them togetherH3162: they have burned upH8313 all the synagoguesH4150 of GodH410 in the landH776. {destroy: Heb. break}
He gaveH5462 his peopleH5971 overH5462 also unto the swordH2719; and was wrothH5674 with his inheritanceH5159.
The fireH784 consumedH398 their young menH970; and their maidensH1330 were not given to marriageH1984. {given…: Heb. praised}
Their priestsH3548 fellH5307 by the swordH2719; and their widowsH490 made no lamentationH1058.
Why hast thou then broken downH6555 her hedgesH1447, so that all they which passH5674 by the wayH1870 do pluckH717 her?
The boarH2386 out of the woodH3293 doth wasteH3765 it, and the wild beastH2123 of the fieldH7704 doth devourH7462 it.
For, lo, thine enemiesH341 make a tumultH1993: and they that hateH8130 thee have lifted upH5375 the headH7218.
They have taken craftyH6191 counselH5475 against thy peopleH5971, and consultedH3289 against thy hidden onesH6845.
They have saidH559, ComeH3212, and let us cut them offH3582 from being a nationH1471; that the nameH8034 of IsraelH3478 may be no more in remembranceH2142.
Thou hast made voidH5010 the covenantH1285 of thy servantH5650: thou hast profanedH2490 his crownH5145 by casting it to the groundH776.
Thou hast broken downH6555 all his hedgesH1448; thou hast broughtH7760 his strong holdsH4013 to ruinH4288.
All that pass byH5674 the wayH1870 spoilH8155 him: he is a reproachH2781 to his neighboursH7934.
Thou hast set upH7311 the right handH3225 of his adversariesH6862; thou hast made all his enemiesH341 to rejoiceH8055.
Thou hast also turnedH7725 the edgeH6697 of his swordH2719, and hast not made him to standH6965 in the battleH4421.
Thou hast made his gloryH2892 to ceaseH7673, and castH4048 his throneH3678 downH4048 to the groundH776. {glory: Heb. brightness}
The daysH3117 of his youthH5934 hast thou shortenedH7114: thou hast coveredH5844 him with shameH955. SelahH5542.
BecauseG1360 it is writtenG1125, Be yeG1096 holyG40; forG3754 IG1473 amG1510 holyG40.
A PsalmH4210 of AsaphH623. The mightyH410 GodH430, even the LORDH3068, hath spokenH1696, and calledH7121 the earthH776 from the risingH4217 of the sunH8121 unto the going downH3996 thereof. {of…: or, for Asaph}
Out of ZionH6726, the perfectionH4359 of beautyH3308, GodH430 hath shinedH3313.
Our GodH430 shall comeH935, and shall not keep silenceH2790: a fireH784 shall devourH398 beforeH6440 him, and it shall be veryH3966 tempestuousH8175 round aboutH5439 him.
He shall callH7121 to the heavensH8064 from aboveH5920, and to the earthH776, that he may judgeH1777 his peopleH5971.
GatherH622 my saintsH2623 together unto me; those that have madeH3772 a covenantH1285 with me by sacrificeH2077.
And the heavensH8064 shall declareH5046 his righteousnessH6664: for GodH430 is judgeH8199 himself. SelahH5542.
HearH8085, O my peopleH5971, and I will speakH1696; O IsraelH3478, and I will testifyH5749 against thee: I am GodH430, even thy GodH430.
I will not reproveH3198 thee for thy sacrificesH2077 or thy burnt offeringsH5930, to have been continuallyH8548 before me.
I will takeH3947 no bullockH6499 out of thy houseH1004, nor he goatsH6260 out of thy foldsH4356.
For every beastH2416 of the forestH3293 is mine, and the cattleH929 upon a thousandH505 hillsH2042.
I knowH3045 all the fowlsH5775 of the mountainsH2022: and the wild beastsH2123 of the fieldH7704 are mineH5978. {mine: Heb. with me}
If I were hungryH7456, I would not tellH559 thee: for the worldH8398 is mine, and the fulnessH4393 thereof.
Will I eatH398 the fleshH1320 of bullsH47, or drinkH8354 the bloodH1818 of goatsH6260?
OfferH2076 unto GodH430 thanksgivingH8426; and payH7999 thy vowsH5088 unto the most HighH5945:
And callH7121 upon me in the dayH3117 of troubleH6869: I will deliverH2502 thee, and thou shalt glorifyH3513 me.
But unto the wickedH7563 GodH430 saithH559, What hast thou to do to declareH5608 my statutesH2706, or that thou shouldest takeH5375 my covenantH1285 in thy mouthH6310?
Seeing thou hatestH8130 instructionH4148, and castestH7993 my wordsH1697 behindH310 thee.
When thou sawestH7200 a thiefH1590, then thou consentedstH7521 with him, and hast been partakerH2506 with adulterersH5003. {hast…: Heb. thy portion was with}
Thou givestH7971 thy mouthH6310 to evilH7451, and thy tongueH3956 framethH6775 deceitH4820. {givest: Heb. sendest}
Thou sittestH3427 and speakestH1696 against thy brotherH251; thouH5414 slanderestH1848 thine own mother'sH517 sonH1121.
These things hast thou doneH6213, and I kept silenceH2790; thou thoughtestH1819 that I was altogetherH1961 such an one as thyself: but I will reproveH3198 thee, and set them in orderH6186 before thine eyesH5869.
Now considerH995 this, ye that forgetH7911 GodH433, lest I tear you in piecesH2963, and there be none to deliverH5337.
Whoso offerethH2076 praiseH8426 glorifiethH3513 me: and to him that orderethH7760 his conversationH1870 aright will I shewH7200 the salvationH3468 of GodH430. {that…: Heb. that disposeth his way}
A PsalmH4210 of AsaphH623. Truly GodH430 is goodH2896 to IsraelH3478, even to such as are of a cleanH1249 heartH3824. {of: or, for} {Truly: or, Yet} {of…: Heb. clean of heart}
But as for me, my feetH7272 were almostH4592 goneH5186+H5186; my stepsH838 had well nighH369 slippedH8210.

For there are no bandsH2784 in their deathH4194: but their strengthH193 is firmH1277. {firm: Heb. fat}
They are not in troubleH5999 as other menH582; neither are they plaguedH5060 likeH5973 other menH120. {in…: Heb. in the trouble of other men} {like: Heb. with}
Therefore prideH1346 compasseth them about as a chainH6059; violenceH2555 coverethH5848 them as a garmentH7897.
Their eyesH5869 stand outH3318 with fatnessH2459: they have moreH5674 than heartH3824 could wishH4906. {have…: Heb. pass the thoughts of the heart}
They are corruptH4167, and speakH1696 wickedlyH7451 concerning oppressionH6233: they speakH1696 loftilyH4791.
They setH8371 their mouthH6310 against the heavensH8064, and their tongueH3956 walkethH1980 through the earthH776.
Therefore his peopleH5971 returnH7725+H7725 hitherH1988: and watersH4325 of a fullH4392 cup are wrung outH4680 to them.
And they sayH559, How doth GodH410 knowH3045? and is thereH3426 knowledgeH1844 in the most HighH5945?
Behold, these are the ungodlyH7563, who prosperH7961 in the worldH5769; they increaseH7685 in richesH2428.
Verily I have cleansedH2135 my heartH3824 in vainH7385, and washedH7364 my handsH3709 in innocencyH5356.
For all the dayH3117 long have I been plaguedH5060, and chastenedH8433 every morningH1242. {chastened: Heb. my chastisement was}

How are they brought into desolationH8047, as in a momentH7281! they are utterlyH5486 consumedH8552 with terrorsH1091.
As a dreamH2472 when one awakethH6974; so, O LordH136, when thou awakestH5782, thou shalt despiseH959 their imageH6754.
Thus my heartH3824 was grievedH2556, and I was prickedH8150 in my reinsH3629.

ButH589 it is goodH2896 for me to draw nearH7132 to GodH430: I have putH7896 my trustH4268 in the LordH136 GODH3069, that I may declareH5608 all thy worksH4399.

HearH8085, O my peopleH5971, and I will speakH1696; O IsraelH3478, and I will testifyH5749 against thee: I am GodH430, even thy GodH430.
I will not reproveH3198 thee for thy sacrificesH2077 or thy burnt offeringsH5930, to have been continuallyH8548 before me.

Now considerH995 this, ye that forgetH7911 GodH433, lest I tear you in piecesH2963, and there be none to deliverH5337.
Whoso offerethH2076 praiseH8426 glorifiethH3513 me: and to him that orderethH7760 his conversationH1870 aright will I shewH7200 the salvationH3468 of GodH430. {that…: Heb. that disposeth his way}
A PsalmH4210 of AsaphH623. Truly GodH430 is goodH2896 to IsraelH3478, even to such as are of a cleanH1249 heartH3824. {of: or, for} {Truly: or, Yet} {of…: Heb. clean of heart}
But as for me, my feetH7272 were almostH4592 goneH5186+H5186; my stepsH838 had well nighH369 slippedH8210.
For I was enviousH7065 at the foolishH1984, when I sawH7200 the prosperityH7965 of the wickedH7563.
For there are no bandsH2784 in their deathH4194: but their strengthH193 is firmH1277. {firm: Heb. fat}
They are not in troubleH5999 as other menH582; neither are they plaguedH5060 likeH5973 other menH120. {in…: Heb. in the trouble of other men} {like: Heb. with}
Therefore prideH1346 compasseth them about as a chainH6059; violenceH2555 coverethH5848 them as a garmentH7897.
Their eyesH5869 stand outH3318 with fatnessH2459: they have moreH5674 than heartH3824 could wishH4906. {have…: Heb. pass the thoughts of the heart}
They are corruptH4167, and speakH1696 wickedlyH7451 concerning oppressionH6233: they speakH1696 loftilyH4791.
They setH8371 their mouthH6310 against the heavensH8064, and their tongueH3956 walkethH1980 through the earthH776.
Therefore his peopleH5971 returnH7725+H7725 hitherH1988: and watersH4325 of a fullH4392 cup are wrung outH4680 to them.
And they sayH559, How doth GodH410 knowH3045? and is thereH3426 knowledgeH1844 in the most HighH5945?
Behold, these are the ungodlyH7563, who prosperH7961 in the worldH5769; they increaseH7685 in richesH2428.
Verily I have cleansedH2135 my heartH3824 in vainH7385, and washedH7364 my handsH3709 in innocencyH5356.
For all the dayH3117 long have I been plaguedH5060, and chastenedH8433 every morningH1242. {chastened: Heb. my chastisement was}
If I sayH559, I will speakH5608 thusH3644; behold, I should offendH898 against the generationH1755 of thy childrenH1121.
When I thoughtH2803 to knowH3045 this, it was too painfulH5999 for meH5869; {too…: Heb. labour in mine eyes}
Until I wentH935 into the sanctuaryH4720 of GodH410; then understoodH995 I their endH319.
Surely thou didst setH7896 them in slippery placesH2513: thou castedst them downH5307 into destructionH4876.
How are they brought into desolationH8047, as in a momentH7281! they are utterlyH5486 consumedH8552 with terrorsH1091.
As a dreamH2472 when one awakethH6974; so, O LordH136, when thou awakestH5782, thou shalt despiseH959 their imageH6754.
Thus my heartH3824 was grievedH2556, and I was prickedH8150 in my reinsH3629.
So foolishH1198 was I, and ignorantH3045: I was as a beastH929 before thee. {ignorant: Heb. I knew not} {before Heb. with}
Nevertheless I am continuallyH8548 with thee: thou hast holdenH270 me by my rightH3225 handH3027.
Thou shalt guideH5148 me with thy counselH6098, and afterwardH310 receiveH3947 me to gloryH3519.
Whom have I in heavenH8064 but thee? and there is none upon earthH776 that I desireH2654 beside thee.
My fleshH7607 and my heartH3824 failethH3615: but GodH430 is the strengthH6697 of my heartH3824, and my portionH2506 for everH5769. {strength: Heb. rock}
For, lo, they that are farH7369 from thee shall perishH6: thou hast destroyedH6789 all them that go a whoringH2181 from thee.
ButH589 it is goodH2896 for me to draw nearH7132 to GodH430: I have putH7896 my trustH4268 in the LordH136 GODH3069, that I may declareH5608 all thy worksH4399.
A PsalmH4210 of AsaphH623. Truly GodH430 is goodH2896 to IsraelH3478, even to such as are of a cleanH1249 heartH3824. {of: or, for} {Truly: or, Yet} {of…: Heb. clean of heart}

MoreoverG1161, brethrenG80, I wouldG2309 notG3756 that yeG5209 should be ignorantG50, how thatG3754 allG3956 ourG2257 fathersG3962 wereG2258 underG5259 the cloudG3507, andG2532 allG3956 passedG1330 throughG1223 the seaG2281;
AndG2532 wereG907 allG3956 baptizedG907 untoG1519 MosesG3475 inG1722 the cloudG3507 andG2532 inG1722 the seaG2281;
AndG2532 didG5315 allG3956 eatG5315 the sameG846 spiritualG4152 meatG1033;
AndG2532 didG4095 allG3956 drinkG4095 the sameG846 spiritualG4152 drinkG4188: forG1063 they drankG4095 ofG1537 that spiritualG4152 RockG4073 that followed themG190: andG1161 that RockG4073 wasG2258 ChristG5547. {followed…: or, went with them}
ButG235 withG1722 manyG4119 of themG846 GodG2316 wasG2106 notG3756 well pleasedG2106: forG1063 they were overthrownG2693 inG1722 the wildernessG2048.
NowG1161 these thingsG5023 wereG1096 ourG2257 examplesG5179, to the intentG1519 weG2248 shouldG1511 notG3361 lust after evilG2556 thingsG1938, asG2531 they alsoG2548 lustedG1937. {our…: Gr. our figures}
NeitherG3366 be yeG1096 idolatersG1496, asG2531 were someG5100 of themG846; asG5613 it is writtenG1125, The peopleG2992 sat downG2523 to eatG5315 andG2532 drinkG4095, andG2532 rose upG450 to playG3815.
NeitherG3366 let us commit fornicationG4203, asG2531 someG5100 of themG846 committedG4203, andG2532 fellG4098 inG1722 oneG3391 dayG2250 threeG5140 and twentyG1501 thousandG5505.
NeitherG3366 let us temptG1598 ChristG5547, asG2531 someG5100 of themG846 alsoG2532 temptedG3985, andG2532 were destroyedG622 ofG5259 serpentsG3789.
NeitherG3366 murmur yeG1111, asG2531 someG5100 of themG846 alsoG2532 murmuredG1111, andG2532 were destroyedG622 ofG5259 the destroyerG3644.
NowG1161 allG3956 these thingsG5023 happenedG4819 unto themG1565 for ensamplesG5179: andG1161 they are writtenG1125 forG4314 ourG2257 admonitionG3559, uponG1519 whomG3739 the endsG5056 of the worldG165 are comeG2658. {ensamples: or, types}
WhereforeG5620 letG991 him that thinkethG1380 he standethG2476 take heedG991 lestG3361 he fallG4098.
There hathG2983 noG3756 temptationG3986 takenG2983 youG5209 butG1508 such as is common to manG442: butG1161 GodG2316 is faithfulG4103, whoG3739 willG1439 notG3756 sufferG1439 youG5209 to be temptedG3985 aboveG5228 thatG3739 ye are ableG1410; butG235 willG4160 withG4862 the temptationG3986 alsoG2532 makeG4160 a way to escapeG1545, that yeG5209 may be ableG1410 to bearG5297 it. {common…: or, moderate}
WhereforeG1355, myG3450 dearly belovedG27, fleeG5343 fromG575 idolatryG1495.
I speakG3004 asG5613 to wise menG5429; judgeG2919 yeG5210 whatG3739 I sayG5346.
The cupG4221 of blessingG2129 whichG3739 we blessG2127, is itG2076 notG3780 the communionG2842 of the bloodG129 of ChristG5547? The breadG740 whichG3739 we breakG2806, is itG2076 notG3780 the communionG2842 of the bodyG4983 of ChristG5547?
ForG3754 weG2070 being manyG4183 areG2070 oneG1520 breadG740, and oneG1520 bodyG4983: forG1063 we areG3348 allG3956 partakersG3348 ofG1537 that oneG1520 breadG740.
BeholdG991 IsraelG2474 afterG2596 the fleshG4561: areG1526 notG3780 theyG1526 which eatG2068 of the sacrificesG2378 partakersG2844 of the altarG2379?
WhatG5101 say IG5346 thenG3767? thatG3754 the idolG1497 isG2076 any thingG5100, orG2228 thatG3754 which is offered in sacrifice to idolsG1494 isG2076 any thingG5100?
ButG235 I say, thatG3754 the things whichG3739 the GentilesG1484 sacrificeG2380, they sacrificeG2380 to devilsG1140, andG2532 notG3756 to GodG2316: andG1161 I wouldG2309 notG3756 that yeG5209 should haveG1096 fellowshipG2844 with devilsG1140.
Ye cannotG3756+G1410 drinkG4095 the cupG4221 of the LordG2962, andG2532 the cupG4221 of devilsG1140: ye cannotG3756+G1410 be partakersG3348 of the Lord'sG2962 tableG5132, andG2532 of the tableG5132 of devilsG1140.
Do we provokeG2228+G3863 the LordG2962 to jealousyG3863? are weG2070 stronger thanG3361+G2478 heG846?
All thingsG3956 are lawfulG1832 for meG3427, butG235 all thingsG3956 areG4851 notG3756 expedientG4851: all thingsG3956 are lawfulG1832 for meG3427, butG235 all thingsG3956 edifyG3618 notG3756.
LetG2212 no manG3367 seekG2212 his ownG1438, butG235 every manG1538 another'sG2087 wealth.
WhatsoeverG3956 is soldG4453 inG1722 the shamblesG3111, that eatG2068, askingG350 noG3367 questionG350 forG1223 conscienceG4893 sakeG1223:
ForG1063 the earthG1093 is the Lord'sG2962, andG2532 the fulnessG4138 thereofG846.
If anyG1536 of them that believe notG571 bidG2564 youG5209 to a feast, andG2532 ye be disposedG2309 to goG4198; whatsoeverG3956 is set beforeG3908 youG5213, eatG2068, askingG350 noG3367 questionG350 forG1223 conscienceG4893 sakeG1223.
ButG1161 ifG1437 any manG5100 sayG2036 unto youG5213, ThisG5124 isG2076 offered in sacrifice unto idolsG1494, eatG2068 notG3361 forG1223 his sakeG1565 that shewed itG3377, andG2532 for conscience sakeG4893: forG1063 the earthG1093 is the Lord'sG2962, andG2532 the fulnessG4138 thereofG846:
ConscienceG4893+G1161, I sayG3004, notG3780 thine ownG1438, butG235 of the otherG2087: forG1063 whyG2444 isG2919 myG3450 libertyG1657 judgedG2919 ofG5259 anotherG243 man's conscienceG4893?
ForG1161 ifG1487 IG1473 by graceG5485 be a partakerG3348, whyG5101 am I evil spoken ofG987 for thatG5228 for whichG3739 IG1473 give thanksG2168? {grace: or, thanksgiving}
WhetherG1535 thereforeG3767 ye eatG2068, orG1535 drinkG4095, orG1535 whatsoeverG5100 ye doG4160, doG4160 allG3956 toG1519 the gloryG1391 of GodG2316.
GiveG1096 none offenceG677, neitherG2532 to the JewsG2453, norG2532 to the GentilesG1672, norG2532 to the churchG1577 of GodG2316: {Gentiles: Gr. Greeks}
Even asG2531 IG2504 pleaseG700 allG3956 men in allG3956 things, notG3361 seekingG2212 mine ownG1683 profitG4851, butG235 the profitG3588 of manyG4183, thatG2443 they may be savedG4982.
DareG5111 anyG5100 of youG5216, havingG2192 a matterG4229 againstG4314 anotherG2087, go to lawG2919 beforeG1909 the unjustG94, andG2532 notG3780 beforeG1909 the saintsG40?
Do yeG1492 notG3756 knowG1492 thatG3754 the saintsG40 shall judgeG2919 the worldG2889? andG2532 ifG1487 the worldG2889 shall be judgedG2919 byG1722 youG5213, are yeG2075 unworthyG370 to judgeG2922 the smallest mattersG1646?
Know yeG1492 notG3756 thatG3754 we shall judgeG2919 angelsG32? how much moreG3386+G1065 things that pertain to this lifeG982?
IfG1437 thenG3303+G3767 ye haveG2192 judgmentsG2922 of things pertaining to this lifeG982, setG2523 themG5128 to judge who are least esteemedG1848 inG1722 the churchG1577.
I speakG3004 toG4314 yourG5213 shameG1791. Is it soG3779, that thereG2076 is notG3756 a wise manG4680 amongG1722 youG5213? no, notG3761 oneG1520 thatG3739 shall be ableG1410 to judgeG1252 betweenG303+G3319 hisG846 brethrenG80?
ButG235 brotherG80 goeth to lawG2919 withG3326 brotherG80, andG2532 thatG5124 beforeG1909 the unbelieversG571.
NowG2235 thereforeG3303+G3767 there isG2076 utterlyG3654 a faultG2275 amongG1722 youG5213, becauseG3754 ye goG2192 to lawG2917 one withG3326 anotherG1438. WhyG1302 do yeG91 notG3780 ratherG3123 take wrongG91? whyG1302 do yeG650 notG3780 ratherG3123 suffer yourselves to be defraudedG650?
NayG235, yeG5210 do wrongG91, andG2532 defraudG650, andG2532 thatG5023 your brethrenG80.
Know yeG1492 notG3756 thatG3754 the unrighteousG94 shallG2816 notG3756 inheritG2816 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316? BeG4105 notG3361 deceivedG4105: neitherG3777 fornicatorsG4205, norG3777 idolatersG1496, norG3777 adulterersG3432, norG3777 effeminateG3120, norG3777 abusers of themselves with mankindG733,
NorG3777 thievesG2812, norG3777 covetousG4123, norG3777 drunkardsG3183, norG3756 revilersG3060, norG3756 extortionersG727, shall inheritG3756+G2816 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316.
AndG2532 suchG5023 wereG2258 some of youG5100: butG235 ye are washedG628, butG235 ye are sanctifiedG37, butG235 ye are justifiedG1344 inG1722 the nameG3686 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424, andG2532 byG1722 the SpiritG4151 of ourG2257 GodG2316.
All thingsG3956 are lawfulG1832 unto meG3427, butG235 all thingsG3956 areG4851 notG3756 expedientG4851: all thingsG3956 are lawfulG1832 for meG3427, butG235 IG1473 willG1850 notG3756 be brought under the powerG1850 ofG5259 anyG5100. {expedient: or, profitable}
MeatsG1033 for the bellyG2836, andG2532 the bellyG2836 for meatsG1033: butG1161 GodG2316 shall destroyG2673 bothG2532 itG5026 andG2532 themG5023. NowG1161 the bodyG4983 is notG3756 for fornicationG4202, butG235 for the LordG2962; andG2532 the LordG2962 for the bodyG4983. {Meats: not flesh only, but food of any kind}
AndG1161 GodG2316 hathG1453 bothG2532 raised upG1453 the LordG2962, andG2532 willG1825 alsoG2532 raise upG1825 usG2248 byG1223 his ownG846 powerG1411.
Know yeG1492 notG3756 thatG3754 yourG5216 bodiesG4983 areG2076 the membersG3196 of ChristG5547? shall IG142 thenG3767 takeG142 the membersG3196 of ChristG5547, and makeG4160 them the membersG3196 of an harlotG4204? God forbidG3361+G1096.
WhatG2228? know yeG1492 notG3756 thatG3754 he which is joinedG2853 to an harlotG4204 isG2076 oneG1520 bodyG4983? forG1063 twoG1417, saith heG5346, shall beG2071 oneG1519+G3391 fleshG4561.
ButG1161 he that is joinedG2853 unto the LordG2962 isG2076 oneG1520 spiritG4151.
FleeG5343 fornicationG4202. EveryG3956 sinG265 thatG3739+G1437 a manG444 doethG4160 isG2076 withoutG1622 the bodyG4983; butG1161 he that committeth fornicationG4203 sinnethG264 againstG1519 his ownG2398 bodyG4983.
WhatG2228? know yeG1492 notG3756 thatG3754 yourG5216 bodyG4983 isG2076 the templeG3485 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151 which is inG1722 youG5213, whichG3739 ye haveG2192 ofG575 GodG2316, andG2532 ye areG2075 notG3756 your ownG1438?
ForG1063 ye are boughtG59 with a priceG5092: thereforeG1211 glorifyG1392 GodG2316 inG1722 yourG5216 bodyG4983, andG2532 inG1722 yourG5216 spiritG4151, whichG3748 areG2076 God'sG2316.
BeG1096 ye followersG3402 of meG3450, even asG2531 I alsoG2504 am of ChristG5547.
NowG1161 I praiseG1867 youG5209, brethrenG80, thatG3754 ye rememberG3415 meG3450 in all thingsG3956, andG2532 keepG2722 the ordinancesG3862, asG2531 I deliveredG3860 them to youG5213. {ordinances: or, traditions}
ButG1161 I would haveG2309 youG5209 knowG1492, thatG3754 the headG2776 of everyG3956 manG435 isG2076 ChristG5547; andG1161 the headG2776 of the womanG1135 is the manG435; andG1161 the headG2776 of ChristG5547 is GodG2316.
EveryG3956 manG435 prayingG4336 orG2228 prophesyingG4395, havingG2192 his headG2776 coveredG2596, dishonourethG2617 hisG846 headG2776.
ButG1161 everyG3956 womanG1135 that prayethG4336 orG2228 prophesiethG4395 with her headG2776 uncoveredG177 dishonourethG2617 herG1438 headG2776: forG1063 that isG2076 evenG2532 all oneG1520 as ifG846 she were shavenG3587.
ForG1063 ifG1487 the womanG1135 beG2619 notG3756 coveredG2619, let herG2751 alsoG2532 be shornG2751: butG1161 ifG1487 it be a shameG149 for a womanG1135 to be shornG2751 orG2228 shavenG3587, let her be coveredG2619.
ForG1063 a manG435 indeedG3303 oughtG3784 notG3756 to coverG2619 his headG2776, forasmuch as he isG5225 the imageG1504 andG2532 gloryG1391 of GodG2316: butG1161 the womanG1135 isG2076 the gloryG1391 of the manG435.
ForG1063 the manG435 isG2076 notG3756 ofG1537 the womanG1135; butG235 the womanG1135 ofG1537 the manG435.
NeitherG3756 wasG2936 the manG435 createdG2936 forG1223 the womanG1135; butG235 the womanG1135 forG1223 the manG435.
For thisG5124 causeG1223 oughtG3784 the womanG1135 to haveG2192 powerG1849 onG1909 her headG2776 becauseG1223 of the angelsG32. {power: that is a covering in sign that she is under the power of her husband}
NeverthelessG4133 neitherG3777 is the manG435 withoutG5565 the womanG1135, neitherG3777 the womanG1135 withoutG5565 the manG435, inG1722 the LordG2962.
ForG1063 asG5618 the womanG1135 is ofG1537 the manG435, even soG3779 is the manG435 alsoG2532 byG1223 the womanG1135; butG1161 all thingsG3956 ofG1537 GodG2316.
JudgeG2919 inG1722 yourselvesG5213+G846: is itG2076 comelyG4241 that a womanG1135 prayG4336 unto GodG2316 uncoveredG177?
DothG2228 not evenG3761 natureG5449 itselfG846 teachG1321 youG5209, thatG3754, ifG1437+G3303 a manG435 have long hairG2863, it isG2076 a shameG819 unto himG846?
ButG1161 ifG1437 a womanG1135 have long hairG2863, it isG2076 a gloryG1391 to herG846: forG3754 her hairG2864 is givenG1325 herG846 forG473 a coveringG4018. {covering: or, veil}
ButG1161 if any manG1536 seemG1380 to beG1511 contentiousG5380, weG2249 haveG2192 noG3756 suchG5108 customG4914, neitherG3761 the churchesG1577 of GodG2316.
NowG1161 in thisG5124 that I declareG3853 unto you I praiseG1867 you notG3756, thatG3754 ye come togetherG4905 notG3756 forG1519 the betterG2909, butG235 forG1519 the worseG2276.
ForG1063+G3303 first of allG4412, when yeG5216 come togetherG4905 inG1722 the churchG1577, I hearG191 that there beG5225 divisionsG4978 amongG1722 youG5213; andG2532 I partlyG3313 believeG4100 itG5100. {divisions: or, schisms}
ForG1063 there mustG1163 beG1511 alsoG2532 heresiesG139 amongG1722 youG5213, thatG2443 they which are approvedG1384 may be madeG1096 manifestG5318 amongG1722 youG5213. {heresies: or, sects}
When yeG5216 come togetherG4905 thereforeG3767 intoG1909 one placeG846, this isG2076 notG3756 to eatG5315 the Lord'sG2960 supperG1173. {this…: or, ye cannot eat}
ForG1063 inG1722 eatingG5315 every oneG1538 taketh beforeG4301 other his ownG2398 supperG1173: andG2532 oneG3739+G3303 is hungryG3983, andG1161 anotherG3739 is drunkenG3184.
WhatG1063? have yeG2192 notG3378 housesG3614 to eatG2068 andG2532 to drinkG4095 inG1519? orG2228 despise yeG2706 the churchG1577 of GodG2316, andG2532 shameG2617 them that haveG2192 notG3361? WhatG5101 shall I sayG2036 to youG5213? shall I praiseG1867 youG5209 inG1722 thisG5129? I praiseG1867 you notG3756. {have not: or, are poor?}
ForG1063 IG1473 have receivedG3880 ofG575 the LordG2962 that whichG3739 alsoG2532 I deliveredG3860 unto youG5213, ThatG3754 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 the same nightG3571 inG1722 whichG3739 he was betrayedG3860 tookG2983 breadG740:
AndG2532 when he had given thanksG2168, he brakeG2806 it, andG2532 saidG2036, TakeG2983, eatG5315: thisG5124 isG2076 myG3450 bodyG4983, whichG3588 is brokenG2806 forG5228 youG5216: thisG5124 doG4160 inG1519 remembranceG364 of meG1699. {in…: or, for a remembrance}
After the same mannerG5615 alsoG2532 he took the cupG4221, whenG3326 he had suppedG1172, sayingG3004, ThisG5124 cupG4221 isG2076 the newG2537 testamentG1242 inG1722 myG1699 bloodG129: thisG5124 do yeG4160, as oft asG3740+G302 ye drinkG4095 it, inG1519 remembranceG364 of meG1699.
ForG1063 as often asG302+G3740 ye eatG2068 thisG5126 breadG740, andG2532 drinkG4095 thisG5124 cupG4221, ye do shewG2605 the Lord'sG2962 deathG2288 tillG891+G302 heG3739 comeG2064. {ye do…: or, shew ye}
WhereforeG5620 whosoeverG3739+G302 shall eatG2068 thisG5126 breadG740, andG2228 drinkG4095 this cupG4221 of the LordG2962, unworthilyG371, shall beG2071 guiltyG1777 of the bodyG4983 andG2532 bloodG129 of the LordG2962.
ButG1161 letG1381 a manG444 examineG1381 himselfG1438, andG2532 soG3779 let him eatG2068 ofG1537 that breadG740, andG2532 drinkG4095 ofG1537 that cupG4221.
ForG1063 he that eatethG2068 andG2532 drinkethG4095 unworthilyG371, eatethG2068 andG2532 drinkethG4095 damnationG2917 to himselfG1438, notG3361 discerningG1252 the Lord'sG2962 bodyG4983. {damnation: or, judgment}
ForG1223 thisG5124 causeG1223 manyG4183 are weakG772 andG2532 sicklyG732 amongG1722 youG5213, andG2532 manyG2425 sleepG2837.
ForG1063 ifG1487 we would judgeG1252 ourselvesG1438, we shouldG302 notG3756 be judgedG2919.
ButG1161 when we are judgedG2919, we are chastenedG3811 ofG5259 the LordG2962, thatG3363 we shouldG2632 notG3363 be condemnedG2632 withG4862 the worldG2889.
WhereforeG5620, myG3450 brethrenG80, when ye come togetherG4905 toG1519 eatG5315, tarryG1551 one for anotherG240.
AndG1161 if any manG1536 hungerG3983, let him eatG2068 atG1722 homeG3624; thatG3363 ye comeG4905 notG3363 togetherG4905 untoG1519 condemnationG2917. AndG1161 the restG3062 will I set in orderG1299 whenG5613+G302 I comeG2064. {condemnation: or, judgment}
A PrayerH8605 of DavidH1732. Bow downH5186 thine earH241, O LORDH3068, hearH6030 me: for I am poorH6041 and needyH34. {A Prayer…: or, A Prayer, being a Psalm of David}
PreserveH8104 my soulH5315; for I am holyH2623: O thou my GodH430, saveH3467 thy servantH5650 that trustethH982 in thee. {holy: or, one whom thou favourest}
Be mercifulH2603 unto me, O LordH136: for I cryH7121 unto thee dailyH3117. {daily: or, all the day}
RejoiceH8055 the soulH5315 of thy servantH5650: for unto thee, O LordH136, do I lift upH5375 my soulH5315.
For thou, LordH136, art goodH2896, and ready to forgiveH5546; and plenteousH7227 in mercyH2617 unto all them that callH7121 upon thee.
Give earH238, O LORDH3068, unto my prayerH8605; and attendH7181 to the voiceH6963 of my supplicationsH8469.
In the dayH3117 of my troubleH6869 I will callH7121 upon thee: for thou wilt answerH6030 me.
Among the godsH430 there is none like unto thee, O LordH136; neither are there any works like unto thy worksH4639.
All nationsH1471 whom thou hast madeH6213 shall comeH935 and worshipH7812 beforeH6440 thee, O LordH136; and shall glorifyH3513 thy nameH8034.
For thou art greatH1419, and doestH6213 wondrous thingsH6381: thou art GodH430 alone.
TeachH3384 me thy wayH1870, O LORDH3068; I will walkH1980 in thy truthH571: uniteH3161 my heartH3824 to fearH3372 thy nameH8034.
I will praiseH3034 thee, O LordH136 my GodH430, with all my heartH3824: and I will glorifyH3513 thy nameH8034 for evermoreH5769.
For greatH1419 is thy mercyH2617 toward me: and thou hast deliveredH5337 my soulH5315 from the lowestH8482 hellH7585. {hell: or, grave}
O GodH430, the proudH2086 are risenH6965 against me, and the assembliesH5712 of violentH6184 men have soughtH1245 after my soulH5315; and have not setH7760 thee before them. {violent: Heb. terrible}
But thou, O LordH136, art a GodH410 full of compassionH7349, and graciousH2587, longsufferingH750+H639, and plenteousH7227 in mercyH2617 and truthH571.
O turnH6437 unto me, and have mercyH2603 upon me; giveH5414 thy strengthH5797 unto thy servantH5650, and saveH3467 the sonH1121 of thine handmaidH519.
ShewH6213 me a tokenH226 for goodH2896; that they which hateH8130 me may seeH7200 it, and be ashamedH954: because thou, LORDH3068, hast holpenH5826 me, and comfortedH5162 me.
MaschilH4905 of EthanH387 the EzrahiteH250. I will singH7891 of the merciesH2617 of the LORDH3068 for everH5769: with my mouthH6310 will I make knownH3045 thy faithfulnessH530 to allH1755 generationsH1755. {Maschil…: or, A Psalm for Ethan the Ezrahite, to give instruction} {to all…: Heb. to generation and generation}
For I have saidH559, MercyH2617 shall be built upH1129 for everH5769: thy faithfulnessH530 shalt thou establishH3559 in the very heavensH8064.
I have madeH3772 a covenantH1285 with my chosenH972, I have swornH7650 unto DavidH1732 my servantH5650,
Thy seedH2233 will I establishH3559 forH5704 everH5769, and build upH1129 thy throneH3678 to allH1755 generationsH1755. SelahH5542.
And the heavensH8064 shall praiseH3034 thy wondersH6382, O LORDH3068: thy faithfulnessH530 also in the congregationH6951 of the saintsH6918.
For who in the heavenH7834 can be comparedH6186 unto the LORDH3068? who among the sonsH1121 of the mightyH410 can be likenedH1819 unto the LORDH3068?
GodH410 is greatlyH7227 to be fearedH6206 in the assemblyH5475 of the saintsH6918, and to be had in reverenceH3372 of all them that are aboutH5439 him.
O LORDH3068 GodH430 of hostsH6635, who is a strongH2626 LORDH3050 like unto thee? or to thy faithfulnessH530 round aboutH5439 thee?
Thou rulestH4910 the ragingH1348 of the seaH3220: when the wavesH1530 thereof ariseH7721, thou stillestH7623 them.
Thou hast brokenH1792 RahabH7294 in piecesH1792, as one that is slainH2491; thou hast scatteredH6340 thine enemiesH341 with thy strongH5797 armH2220. {Rahab: or, Egypt} {thy…: Heb. the arm of thy strength}
The heavensH8064 are thine, the earthH776 also is thine: as for the worldH8398 and the fulnessH4393 thereof, thou hast foundedH3245 them. {the fulness…: or, all it containeth}
The northH6828 and the southH3225 thou hast createdH1254 them: TaborH8396 and HermonH2768 shall rejoiceH7442 in thy nameH8034.
Thou hast a mightyH1369 armH2220: strongH5810 is thy handH3027, and highH7311 is thy right handH3225. {a…: Heb. an arm with might}
JusticeH6664 and judgmentH4941 are the habitationH4349 of thy throneH3678: mercyH2617 and truthH571 shall goH6923 before thy faceH6440. {habitation: or, establishment}
BlessedH835 is the peopleH5971 that knowH3045 the joyful soundH8643: they shall walkH1980, O LORDH3068, in the lightH216 of thy countenanceH6440.
In thy nameH8034 shall they rejoiceH1523 all the dayH3117: and in thy righteousnessH6666 shall they be exaltedH7311.
For thou art the gloryH8597 of their strengthH5797: and in thy favourH7522 our hornH7161 shall be exaltedH7311+H7311.
For the LORDH3068 is our defenceH4043; and the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478 is our kingH4428. {the LORD…: or, our shield is of the LORD, and our king is of the Holy One of Israel}
Then thou spakestH1696 in visionH2377 to thy holy oneH2623, and saidstH559, I have laidH7737 helpH5828 upon one that is mightyH1368; I have exaltedH7311 one chosenH977 out of the peopleH5971.
I have foundH4672 DavidH1732 my servantH5650; with my holyH6944 oilH8081 have I anointedH4886 him:
With whom my handH3027 shall be establishedH3559: mine armH2220 also shall strengthenH553 him.
The enemyH341 shall not exactH5378 upon him; nor the sonH1121 of wickednessH5766 afflictH6031 him.
And I will beat downH3807 his foesH6862 before his faceH6440, and plagueH5062 them that hateH8130 him.
But my faithfulnessH530 and my mercyH2617 shall be with him: and in my nameH8034 shall his hornH7161 be exaltedH7311.
I will setH7760 his handH3027 also in the seaH3220, and his right handH3225 in the riversH5104.
He shall cryH7121 unto me, Thou art my fatherH1, my GodH410, and the rockH6697 of my salvationH3444.
Also I will makeH5414 him my firstbornH1060, higherH5945 than the kingsH4428 of the earthH776.
My mercyH2617 will I keepH8104 for him for evermoreH5769, and my covenantH1285 shall stand fastH539 with him.
His seedH2233 also will I makeH7760 to endure for everH5703, and his throneH3678 as the daysH3117 of heavenH8064.
If his childrenH1121 forsakeH5800 my lawH8451, and walkH3212 not in my judgmentsH4941;
If they breakH2490 my statutesH2708, and keepH8104 not my commandmentsH4687; {break: Heb. profane}
Then will I visitH6485 their transgressionH6588 with the rodH7626, and their iniquityH5771 with stripesH5061.
Nevertheless my lovingkindnessH2617 will I not utterly takeH6331 from him, nor suffer my faithfulnessH530 to failH8266. {will…: Heb. I will not make void from him} {to fall: Heb. to lie}
My covenantH1285 will I not breakH2490, nor alterH8138 the thing that is gone outH4161 of my lipsH8193.
OnceH259 have I swornH7650 by my holinessH6944 that I will not lieH3576 unto DavidH1732. {that…: Heb. if I lie}
His seedH2233 shall endure for everH5769, and his throneH3678 as the sunH8121 before me.
It shall be establishedH3559 for everH5769 as the moonH3394, and as a faithfulH539 witnessH5707 in heavenH7834. SelahH5542.
But thou hast cast offH2186 and abhorredH3988, thou hast been wrothH5674 with thine anointedH4899.
Thou hast made voidH5010 the covenantH1285 of thy servantH5650: thou hast profanedH2490 his crownH5145 by casting it to the groundH776.
Thou hast broken downH6555 all his hedgesH1448; thou hast broughtH7760 his strong holdsH4013 to ruinH4288.
All that pass byH5674 the wayH1870 spoilH8155 him: he is a reproachH2781 to his neighboursH7934.
Thou hast set upH7311 the right handH3225 of his adversariesH6862; thou hast made all his enemiesH341 to rejoiceH8055.
Thou hast also turnedH7725 the edgeH6697 of his swordH2719, and hast not made him to standH6965 in the battleH4421.
Thou hast made his gloryH2892 to ceaseH7673, and castH4048 his throneH3678 downH4048 to the groundH776. {glory: Heb. brightness}
The daysH3117 of his youthH5934 hast thou shortenedH7114: thou hast coveredH5844 him with shameH955. SelahH5542.
How long, LORDH3068? wilt thou hideH5641 thyself for everH5331? shall thy wrathH2534 burnH1197 like fireH784?
RememberH2142 how shortH2465 my time is: wherefore hast thou madeH1254 all menH1121+H120 in vainH7723?
What manH1397 is he that livethH2421, and shall not seeH7200 deathH4194? shall he deliverH4422 his soulH5315 from the handH3027 of the graveH7585? SelahH5542.
LordH136, where are thy formerH7223 lovingkindnessesH2617, which thou swarestH7650 unto DavidH1732 in thy truthH530?
RememberH2142, LordH136, the reproachH2781 of thy servantsH5650; how I do bearH5375 in my bosomH2436 the reproach of all the mightyH7227 peopleH5971;
Wherewith thine enemiesH341 have reproachedH2778, O LORDH3068; wherewith they have reproachedH2778 the footstepsH6119 of thine anointedH4899.
BlessedH1288 be the LORDH3068 for evermoreH5769. AmenH543, and AmenH543.
So when DavidH1732 was oldH2204 and fullH7646 of daysH3117, he made SolomonH8010 his sonH1121 kingH4427 over IsraelH3478.
And he gathered togetherH622 all the princesH8269 of IsraelH3478, with the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881.
Now the LevitesH3881 were numberedH5608 from the ageH1121 of thirtyH7970 yearsH8141 and upwardH4605: and their numberH4557 by their pollsH1538, man by manH1397, was thirtyH7970 and eightH8083 thousandH505.
Of whichH428, twentyH6242 and fourH702 thousandH505 were to set forwardH5329 the workH4399 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068; and sixH8337 thousandH505 were officersH7860 and judgesH8199: {set…: or, oversee}
Moreover fourH702 thousandH505 were portersH7778; and fourH702 thousandH505 praisedH1984 the LORDH3068 with the instrumentsH3627 which I madeH6213, said David, to praiseH1984 therewith.
And DavidH1732 dividedH2505 them into coursesH4256 among the sonsH1121 of LeviH3878, namely, GershonH1648, KohathH6955, and MerariH4847. {courses: Heb. divisions}
Of the GershonitesH1649 were, LaadanH3936, and ShimeiH8096. {Laadan: or, Libni}
The sonsH1121 of LaadanH3936; the chiefH7218 was JehielH3171, and ZethamH2241, and JoelH3100, threeH7969.
The sonsH1121 of ShimeiH8096; ShelomithH8019+H8013, and HazielH2381, and HaranH2039, threeH7969. These were the chiefH7218 of the fathersH1 of LaadanH3936.
And the sonsH1121 of ShimeiH8096 were, JahathH3189, ZinaH2126, and JeushH3266, and BeriahH1283. These fourH702 were the sonsH1121 of ShimeiH8096. {Zina: or, Zizah}
And JahathH3189 was the chiefH7218, and ZizahH2125 the secondH8145: but JeushH3266 and BeriahH1283 had not manyH7235 sonsH1121; therefore they were in oneH259 reckoningH6486, according to their father'sH1 houseH1004. {had…: Heb. did not multiply sons}
The sonsH1121 of KohathH6955; AmramH6019, IzharH3324, HebronH2275, and UzzielH5816, fourH702.
The sonsH1121 of AmramH6019; AaronH175 and MosesH4872: and AaronH175 was separatedH914, that he should sanctifyH6942 the mostH6944 holy thingsH6944, he and his sonsH1121 forH5704 everH5769, to burn incenseH6999 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, to ministerH8334 unto him, and to blessH1288 in his nameH8034 forH5704 everH5769.
Now concerning MosesH4872 the manH376 of GodH430, his sonsH1121 were namedH7121 of the tribeH7626 of LeviH3878.
The sonsH1121 of MosesH4872 were, GershomH1647, and EliezerH461.
Of the sonsH1121 of GershomH1647, ShebuelH7619 was the chiefH7218. {Shebuel: or, Shubael}
And the sonsH1121 of EliezerH461 were, RehabiahH7345 the chiefH7218. And EliezerH461 had none otherH312 sonsH1121; but the sonsH1121 of RehabiahH7345 were veryH4605 manyH7235. {the chief: or, the first} {very many: Heb. were highly multiplied}
Of the sonsH1121 of IzharH3324; ShelomithH8019 the chiefH7218.
Of the sonsH1121 of HebronH2275; JeriahH3404 the firstH7218, AmariahH568 the secondH8145, JahazielH3166 the thirdH7992, and JekameamH3360 the fourthH7243.

The sonsH1121 of MerariH4847; MahliH4249, and MushiH4187. The sonsH1121 of MahliH4249; EleazarH499, and KishH7027.
And EleazarH499 diedH4191, and had no sonsH1121, but daughtersH1323: and their brethrenH251 the sonsH1121 of KishH7027 tookH5375 them. {brethren: or, kinsmen}
The sonsH1121 of MushiH4187; MahliH4249, and EderH5740, and JeremothH3406, threeH7969.
These were the sonsH1121 of LeviH3878 after the houseH1004 of their fathersH1; even the chiefH7218 of the fathersH1, as they were countedH6485 by numberH4557 of namesH8034 by their pollsH1538, that didH6213 the workH4399 for the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, from the ageH1121 of twentyH6242 yearsH8141 and upwardH4605.
For DavidH1732 saidH559, The LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 hath given restH5117 unto his peopleH5971, that they may dwellH7931 in JerusalemH3389 for everH5769: {that…: or, and he dwelleth in Jerusalem, etc}
And also unto the LevitesH3881; they shall no more carryH5375 the tabernacleH4908, nor any vesselsH3627 of it for the serviceH5656 thereof.
For by the lastH314 wordsH1697 of DavidH1732 the LevitesH3881 were numberedH4557 from twentyH6242 yearsH8141 oldH1121 and aboveH4605: {numbered: Heb. number}
Because their officeH4612 was to waitH3027 on the sonsH1121 of AaronH175 for the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, in the courtsH2691, and in the chambersH3957, and in the purifyingH2893 of all holy thingsH6944, and the workH4639 of the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of GodH430; {their…: Heb. their station was at the hand of the sons of Aaron}
Both for the shewbreadH3899+H4635, and for the fine flourH5560 for meat offeringH4503, and for the unleavenedH4682 cakesH7550, and for that which is baked in the panH4227, and for that which is friedH7246, and for all manner of measureH4884 and sizeH4060; {pan: or, flat plate}
And to standH5975 every morningH1242 to thankH3034 and praiseH1984 the LORDH3068, and likewise at evenH6153;
And to offerH5927 all burnt sacrificesH5930 unto the LORDH3068 in the sabbathsH7676, in the new moonsH2320, and on the set feastsH4150, by numberH4557, according to the orderH4941 commanded unto them, continuallyH8548 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068:
And that they should keepH8104 the chargeH4931 of the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, and the chargeH4931 of the holyH6944 place, and the chargeH4931 of the sonsH1121 of AaronH175 their brethrenH251, in the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
Now these were the sonsH1121 of DavidH1732, which were bornH3205 unto him in HebronH2275; the firstbornH1060 AmnonH550, of AhinoamH293 the JezreelitessH3159; the secondH8145 DanielH1840, of AbigailH26 the CarmelitessH3762: {Daniel: or, Chileab 2Sam.3.3.}

The fifthH2549, ShephatiahH8203 of AbitalH37: the sixthH8345, IthreamH3507 by EglahH5698 his wifeH802.
These sixH8337 were bornH3205 unto him in HebronH2275; and there he reignedH4427 sevenH7651 yearsH8141 and sixH8337 monthsH2320: and in JerusalemH3389 he reignedH4427 thirtyH7970 and threeH7969 yearsH8141.
And these were bornH3205 unto him in JerusalemH3389; ShimeaH8092, and ShobabH7727, and NathanH5416, and SolomonH8010, fourH702, of BathshuaH1340 the daughterH1323 of AmmielH5988: {Shimea: or, Shammua 2.Sam.5.14.} {Bathshua: or, Bathsheba 2Sam.11.13.} {Ammiel: or, Eliam 2.Sam.11.3.}

And the sonsH1121 of JehoiakimH3079: JeconiahH3204 his sonH1121, ZedekiahH6667 his sonH1121. {Jeconiah: also called, Jehoiachin 2kin.24.6, Zedekiah: or Coniah ier.22.24}

And the sonsH1121 of NeariahH5294; ElioenaiH454, and HezekiahH2396, and AzrikamH5840, threeH7969. {Hezekiah: Heb. Hiskijah}
And the sonsH1121 of ElioenaiH454 were, HodaiahH1939, and EliashibH475, and PelaiahH6411, and AkkubH6126, and JohananH3110, and DalaiahH1806, and AnaniH6054, sevenH7651.
And DavidH1732 assembledH6950 all the princesH8269 of IsraelH3478, the princesH8269 of the tribesH7626, and the captainsH8269 of the companiesH4256 that ministeredH8334 to the kingH4428 by courseH4256, and the captainsH8269 over the thousandsH505, and captainsH8269 over the hundredsH3967, and the stewardsH8269 over all the substanceH7399 and possessionH4735 of the kingH4428, and of his sonsH1121, with the officersH5631, and with the mighty menH1368, and with all the valiant menH2428, unto JerusalemH3389. {possession: or, cattle} {and of…: or, and his sons} {officers: or, eunuchs}
Then DavidH1732 the kingH4428 stood upH6965 upon his feetH7272, and saidH559, HearH8085 me, my brethrenH251, and my peopleH5971: As for me, I had in mine heartH3824 to buildH1129 an houseH1004 of restH4496 for the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068, and for the footstoolH1916+H7272 of our GodH430, and had made readyH3559 for the buildingH1129:
But GodH430 saidH559 unto me, Thou shalt not buildH1129 an houseH1004 for my nameH8034, because thou hast been a manH376 of warH4421, and hast shedH8210 bloodH1818. {blood: Heb. bloods}
Howbeit the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 choseH977 me before all the houseH1004 of my fatherH1 to be kingH4428 over IsraelH3478 for everH5769: for he hath chosenH977 JudahH3063 to be the rulerH5057; and of the houseH1004 of JudahH3063, the houseH1004 of my fatherH1; and among the sonsH1121 of my fatherH1 he likedH7521 me to make me kingH4427 over all IsraelH3478:
And of all my sonsH1121, (for the LORDH3068 hath givenH5414 me manyH7227 sonsH1121,) he hath chosenH977 SolomonH8010 my sonH1121 to sitH3427 upon the throneH3678 of the kingdomH4438 of the LORDH3068 over IsraelH3478.
And he saidH559 unto me, SolomonH8010 thy sonH1121, he shall buildH1129 my houseH1004 and my courtsH2691: for I have chosenH977 him to be my sonH1121, and I will be his fatherH1.
Moreover I will establishH3559 his kingdomH4438 for everH5769, if he be constantH2388 to doH6213 my commandmentsH4687 and my judgmentsH4941, as at this dayH3117. {constant: Heb. strong}
Now therefore in the sightH5869 of all IsraelH3478 the congregationH6951 of the LORDH3068, and in the audienceH241 of our GodH430, keepH8104 and seekH1875 for all the commandmentsH4687 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430: that ye may possessH3423 this goodH2896 landH776, and leave it for an inheritanceH5157 for your childrenH1121 afterH310 you forH5704 everH5769.
And thou, SolomonH8010 my sonH1121, knowH3045 thou the GodH430 of thy fatherH1, and serveH5647 him with a perfectH8003 heartH3820 and with a willingH2655 mindH5315: for the LORDH3068 searchethH1875 all heartsH3824, and understandethH995 all the imaginationsH3336 of the thoughtsH4284: if thou seekH1875 him, he will be foundH4672 of thee; but if thou forsakeH5800 him, he will cast thee offH2186 for everH5703.
Take heedH7200 now; for the LORDH3068 hath chosenH977 thee to buildH1129 an houseH1004 for the sanctuaryH4720: be strongH2388, and doH6213 it.
Then DavidH1732 gaveH5414 to SolomonH8010 his sonH1121 the patternH8403 of the porchH197, and of the housesH1004 thereof, and of the treasuriesH1597 thereof, and of the upper chambersH5944 thereof, and of the innerH6442 parloursH2315 thereof, and of the placeH1004 of the mercy seatH3727,
And the patternH8403 of all that he had by the spiritH7307, of the courtsH2691 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and of all the chambersH3957 round aboutH5439, of the treasuriesH214 of the houseH1004 of GodH430, and of the treasuriesH214 of the dedicated thingsH6944: {of all that…: Heb. of all that was with him}
Also for the coursesH4256 of the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881, and for all the workH4399 of the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and for all the vesselsH3627 of serviceH5656 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
He gave of goldH2091 by weightH4948 for things of goldH2091, for all instrumentsH3627 of all manner of serviceH5656; silver also for all instrumentsH3627 of silverH3701 by weightH4948, for all instrumentsH3627 of every kind of serviceH5656:
Even the weightH4948 for the candlesticksH4501 of goldH2091, and for their lampsH5216 of goldH2091, by weightH4948 for every candlestickH4501, and for the lampsH5216 thereof: and for the candlesticksH4501 of silverH3701 by weightH4948, both for the candlestickH4501, and also for the lampsH5216 thereof, according to the useH5656 of every candlestickH4501.
And by weightH4948 he gave goldH2091 for the tablesH7979 of shewbreadH4635, for every tableH7979; and likewise silverH3701 for the tablesH7979 of silverH3701:
Also pureH2889 goldH2091 for the fleshhooksH4207, and the bowlsH4219, and the cupsH7184: and for the goldenH2091 basonsH3713 he gave gold by weightH4948 for every basonH3713; and likewise silver by weightH4948 for every basonH3713 of silverH3701:
And for the altarH4196 of incenseH7004 refinedH2212 goldH2091 by weightH4948; and goldH2091 for the patternH8403 of the chariotH4818 of the cherubimsH3742, that spread outH6566 their wings, and coveredH5526 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068.
All this, said David, the LORDH3068 made me understandH7919 in writingH3791 by his handH3027 upon me, even all the worksH4399 of this patternH8403.
And DavidH1732 saidH559 to SolomonH8010 his sonH1121, Be strongH2388 and of good courageH553, and doH6213 it: fearH3372 not, nor be dismayedH2865: for the LORDH3068 GodH430, even my GodH430, will be with thee; he will not failH7503 thee, nor forsakeH5800 thee, until thou hast finishedH3615 all the workH4399 for the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
And, behold, the coursesH4256 of the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881, even they shall be with thee for all the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of GodH430: and there shall be with thee for all manner of workmanshipH4399 every willingH5081 skilful manH2451, for any manner of serviceH5656: also the princesH8269 and all the peopleH5971 will be wholly at thy commandmentH1697.
Moreover fourH702 thousandH505 were portersH7778; and fourH702 thousandH505 praisedH1984 the LORDH3068 with the instrumentsH3627 which I madeH6213, said David, to praiseH1984 therewith.
AsaphH623 the chiefH7218, and nextH4932 to him ZechariahH2148, JeielH3273, and ShemiramothH8070, and JehielH3171, and MattithiahH4993, and EliabH446, and BenaiahH1141, and ObededomH5654: and JeielH3273 with psalteriesH5035+H3627 and with harpsH3658; but AsaphH623 made a soundH8085 with cymbalsH4700; {with psalteries…: Heb. with instruments of psalteries and harps}
Moreover DavidH1732 and the captainsH8269 of the hostH6635 separatedH914 to the serviceH5656 of the sonsH1121 of AsaphH623, and of HemanH1968, and of JeduthunH3038, who should prophesyH5012+H5030 with harpsH3658, with psalteriesH5035, and with cymbalsH4700: and the numberH4557 of the workmenH582+H4399 according to their serviceH5656 was:
Of the sonsH1121 of AsaphH623; ZaccurH2139, and JosephH3130, and NethaniahH5418, and AsarelahH841, the sonsH1121 of AsaphH623 under the handsH3027 of AsaphH623, which prophesiedH5012 according to the orderH3027 of the kingH4428. {Asarelah: otherwise called Jesharelah} {according…: Heb. by the hands of the king}
Moreover HezekiahH3169 the kingH4428 and the princesH8269 commandedH559 the LevitesH3881 to sing praiseH1984 unto the LORDH3068 with the wordsH1697 of DavidH1732, and of AsaphH623 the seerH2374. And they sang praisesH1984 with gladnessH8057, and they bowed their headsH6915 and worshippedH7812.
And when the buildersH1129 laid the foundationH3245 of the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068, they setH5975 the priestsH3548 in their apparelH3847 with trumpetsH2689, and the LevitesH3881 the sonsH1121 of AsaphH623 with cymbalsH4700, to praiseH1984 the LORDH3068, after the ordinanceH3027 of DavidH1732 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478.
The overseerH6496 also of the LevitesH3881 at JerusalemH3389 was UzziH5813 the sonH1121 of BaniH1137, the sonH1121 of HashabiahH2811, the sonH1121 of MattaniahH4983, the sonH1121 of MichaH4316. Of the sonsH1121 of AsaphH623, the singersH7891 were overH5048 the businessH4399 of the houseH1004 of GodH430.
A PsalmH4210 of AsaphH623. The mightyH410 GodH430, even the LORDH3068, hath spokenH1696, and calledH7121 the earthH776 from the risingH4217 of the sunH8121 unto the going downH3996 thereof. {of…: or, for Asaph}
A PsalmH4210 of AsaphH623. Truly GodH430 is goodH2896 to IsraelH3478, even to such as are of a cleanH1249 heartH3824. {of: or, for} {Truly: or, Yet} {of…: Heb. clean of heart}
But as for me, my feetH7272 were almostH4592 goneH5186+H5186; my stepsH838 had well nighH369 slippedH8210.
For I was enviousH7065 at the foolishH1984, when I sawH7200 the prosperityH7965 of the wickedH7563.
For there are no bandsH2784 in their deathH4194: but their strengthH193 is firmH1277. {firm: Heb. fat}
They are not in troubleH5999 as other menH582; neither are they plaguedH5060 likeH5973 other menH120. {in…: Heb. in the trouble of other men} {like: Heb. with}
Therefore prideH1346 compasseth them about as a chainH6059; violenceH2555 coverethH5848 them as a garmentH7897.
Their eyesH5869 stand outH3318 with fatnessH2459: they have moreH5674 than heartH3824 could wishH4906. {have…: Heb. pass the thoughts of the heart}
They are corruptH4167, and speakH1696 wickedlyH7451 concerning oppressionH6233: they speakH1696 loftilyH4791.
They setH8371 their mouthH6310 against the heavensH8064, and their tongueH3956 walkethH1980 through the earthH776.
Therefore his peopleH5971 returnH7725+H7725 hitherH1988: and watersH4325 of a fullH4392 cup are wrung outH4680 to them.
And they sayH559, How doth GodH410 knowH3045? and is thereH3426 knowledgeH1844 in the most HighH5945?
Behold, these are the ungodlyH7563, who prosperH7961 in the worldH5769; they increaseH7685 in richesH2428.
Verily I have cleansedH2135 my heartH3824 in vainH7385, and washedH7364 my handsH3709 in innocencyH5356.
For all the dayH3117 long have I been plaguedH5060, and chastenedH8433 every morningH1242. {chastened: Heb. my chastisement was}
If I sayH559, I will speakH5608 thusH3644; behold, I should offendH898 against the generationH1755 of thy childrenH1121.
When I thoughtH2803 to knowH3045 this, it was too painfulH5999 for meH5869; {too…: Heb. labour in mine eyes}
Until I wentH935 into the sanctuaryH4720 of GodH410; then understoodH995 I their endH319.
Surely thou didst setH7896 them in slippery placesH2513: thou castedst them downH5307 into destructionH4876.
How are they brought into desolationH8047, as in a momentH7281! they are utterlyH5486 consumedH8552 with terrorsH1091.
As a dreamH2472 when one awakethH6974; so, O LordH136, when thou awakestH5782, thou shalt despiseH959 their imageH6754.
Thus my heartH3824 was grievedH2556, and I was prickedH8150 in my reinsH3629.
So foolishH1198 was I, and ignorantH3045: I was as a beastH929 before thee. {ignorant: Heb. I knew not} {before Heb. with}
Nevertheless I am continuallyH8548 with thee: thou hast holdenH270 me by my rightH3225 handH3027.
Thou shalt guideH5148 me with thy counselH6098, and afterwardH310 receiveH3947 me to gloryH3519.
Whom have I in heavenH8064 but thee? and there is none upon earthH776 that I desireH2654 beside thee.
My fleshH7607 and my heartH3824 failethH3615: but GodH430 is the strengthH6697 of my heartH3824, and my portionH2506 for everH5769. {strength: Heb. rock}
For, lo, they that are farH7369 from thee shall perishH6: thou hast destroyedH6789 all them that go a whoringH2181 from thee.
ButH589 it is goodH2896 for me to draw nearH7132 to GodH430: I have putH7896 my trustH4268 in the LordH136 GODH3069, that I may declareH5608 all thy worksH4399.
The statutesH6490 of the LORDH3068 are rightH3477, rejoicingH8055 the heartH3820: the commandmentH4687 of the LORDH3068 is pureH1249, enlighteningH215 the eyesH5869.
Where no oxenH504 are, the cribH18 is cleanH1249: but muchH7230 increaseH8393 is by the strengthH3581 of the oxH7794.
CreateH1254 in me a cleanH2889 heartH3820, O GodH430; and renewH2318 a rightH3559 spiritH7307 withinH7130 me. {right: or, constant}
JesusG2424 sawG1492 NathanaelG3482 comingG2064 toG4314 himG846, andG2532 saithG3004 ofG4012 himG846, BeholdG2396 an IsraeliteG2475 indeedG230, inG1722 whomG3739 isG2076 noG3756 guileG1388!
For thou, LordH136, art goodH2896, and ready to forgiveH5546; and plenteousH7227 in mercyH2617 unto all them that callH7121 upon thee.
IfG1487 we believe notG569, yet heG1565 abidethG3306 faithfulG4103: he cannotG3756+G1410 denyG720 himselfG1438.
