Psalms 142:6

But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

You are of God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world.

Now thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and reveals through us the sweet aroma of his knowledge in every place.

I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. That life which I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.

Yahweh, my God, I take refuge in you. Save me from all those who pursue me, and deliver me,

I will extol you, Yahweh, for you have raised me up, and have not made my foes to rejoice over me.

They conspire and lurk, watching my steps. They are eager to take my life.

Don’t hide your face from your servant, for I am in distress. Answer me speedily!

Yahweh is near to all those who call on him, to all who call on him in truth.

you shall not bow yourself down to them, nor serve them, for I, Yahweh your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, on the third and on the fourth generation of those who hate me,

Now therefore, don’t let my blood fall to the earth away from the presence of Yahweh; for the king of Israel has come out to seek a flea, as when one hunts a partridge in the mountains.”

“Why aren’t times laid up by the Almighty? Why don’t those who know him see his days?

Have the gates of death been revealed to you? Or have you seen the gates of the shadow of death?

He lurks in secret as a lion in his ambush. He lies in wait to catch the helpless. He catches the helpless when he draws him in his net.

Show your marvelous loving kindness, you who save those who take refuge by your right hand from their enemies.

Yahweh’s law is perfect, restoring the soul. Yahweh’s covenant is sure, making wise the simple.

Don’t hide your face from me. Don’t put your servant away in anger. You have been my help. Don’t abandon me, neither forsake me, God of my salvation.

To you, Yahweh, I call. My rock, don’t be deaf to me, lest, if you are silent to me, I would become like those who go down into the pit.

In you, Yahweh, I take refuge. Let me never be disappointed. Deliver me in your righteousness.

Don’t let those who are my enemies wrongfully rejoice over me; neither let those who hate me without a cause wink their eyes.

By this I know that you delight in me, because my enemy doesn’t triumph over me.

Hear my cry, God. Listen to my prayer.

Don’t hold the iniquities of our forefathers against us. Let your tender mercies speedily meet us, for we are in desperate need.

Yahweh remembers us. He will bless us. He will bless the house of Israel. He will bless the house of Aaron.

Those who trust in Yahweh are as Mount Zion, which can’t be moved, but remains forever.

Yahweh’s name is a strong tower: the righteous run to him, and are safe.

Sing, you heavens, for Yahweh has done it! Shout, you lower parts of the earth! Break out into singing, you mountains, O forest, all of your trees, for Yahweh has redeemed Jacob, and will glorify himself in Israel.

Leave Babylon! Flee from the Chaldeans! With a voice of singing announce this, tell it even to the end of the earth: say, “Yahweh has redeemed his servant Jacob!”

Don’t be furious, Yahweh. Don’t remember iniquity forever. Look and see, we beg you, we are all your people.

He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Most gladly therefore I will rather glory in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest on me.

Walk in love, even as Christ also loved us and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling fragrance.

and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him who loves us, and washed us from our sins by his blood—

These will war against the Lamb, and the Lamb will overcome them, for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings, and those who are with him are called chosen and faithful.”

for Yahweh your God is he who goes with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you.”

The Philistine said to David, “Am I a dog, that you come to me with sticks?” The Philistine cursed David by his gods.

Moreover, my father, behold, yes, see the skirt of your robe in my hand; for in that I cut off the skirt of your robe, and didn’t kill you, know and see that there is neither evil nor disobedience in my hand, and I have not sinned against you, though you hunt for my life to take it.

He bowed down, and said, “What is your servant, that you should look at such a dead dog as I am?”

Someone told David, saying, “Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom.” David said, “Yahweh, please turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness.”

Then Abishai the son of Zeruiah said to the king, “Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? Please let me go over and take off his head.”

“Now, my God, let, I beg you, your eyes be open, and let your ears be attentive, to the prayer that is made in this place.

lest my enemy say, “I have prevailed against him;” lest my adversaries rejoice when I fall.

All my bones shall say, “Yahweh, who is like you, who delivers the poor from him who is too strong for him; yes, the poor and the needy from him who robs him?”

Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked, from the noisy crowd of the ones doing evil;

Those who hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head. Those who want to cut me off, being my enemies wrongfully, are mighty. I have to restore what I didn’t take away.

You have laid me in the lowest pit, in the darkest depths.

Their soul abhors all kinds of food. They draw near to the gates of death.

Yahweh preserves the simple. I was brought low, and he saved me.

Uphold me according to your word, that I may live. Let me not be ashamed of my hope.

The sacrifice made by the wicked is an abomination to Yahweh, but the prayer of the upright is his delight.

Put me in remembrance. Let us plead together. Declare your case, that you may be justified.

For Yahweh has ransomed Jacob, and redeemed him from the hand of him who was stronger than he.

“The incense that you burned in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, you and your fathers, your kings and your princes, and the people of the land, didn’t Yahweh remember them, and didn’t it come into his mind?

He has made me dwell in dark places, as those who have been long dead.

All the presidents of the kingdom, the deputies and the local governors, the counselors and the governors, have consulted together to establish a royal statute, and to make a strong decree, that whoever asks a petition of any god or man for thirty days, except of you, O king, he shall be cast into the den of lions.

Yahweh said to Satan, “Yahweh rebuke you, Satan! Yes, Yahweh who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you! Isn’t this a burning stick plucked out of the fire?”

We love him, because he first loved us.

They overcame him because of the Lamb’s blood, and because of the word of their testimony. They didn’t love their life, even to death.

He who overcomes, I will give him these things. I will be his God, and he will be my son.

Behold, you have driven me out today from the surface of the ground. I will be hidden from your face, and I will be a fugitive and a wanderer in the earth. Whoever finds me will kill me.”

God remembered Noah, all the animals, and all the livestock that were with him in the ship; and God made a wind to pass over the earth. The waters subsided.

Terror and dread falls on them. By the greatness of your arm they are as still as a stone, until your people pass over, Yahweh, until the people you have purchased pass over.

The foreigner who is among you will mount up above you higher and higher, and you will come down lower and lower.

For Yahweh will judge his people, and have compassion on his servants, when he sees that their power is gone; that there is no one remaining, shut up or left at large.

Hear, Yahweh, my righteous plea; Give ear to my prayer, that doesn’t go out of deceitful lips.

For you meet him with the blessings of goodness. You set a crown of fine gold on his head.

Yahweh, you have brought up my soul from Sheol. You have kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.

You, Yahweh, when you favored me, made my mountain stand strong; but when you hid your face, I was troubled.

He brought me up also out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay. He set my feet on a rock, and gave me a firm place to stand.

I am counted among those who go down into the pit. I am like a man who has no help,

Hear my prayer, Yahweh! Let my cry come to you.

He has responded to the prayer of the destitute, and has not despised their prayer.

He raises up the poor out of the dust. Lifts up the needy from the ash heap,

Ensure your servant’s well-being. Don’t let the proud oppress me.

Shall the plunder be taken from the mighty, or the lawful captives be delivered?

“I will deliver you out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem you out of the hand of the terrible.”

“Brother will deliver up brother to death, and the father his child. Children will rise up against parents, and cause them to be put to death.

for he has looked at the humble state of his servant. For behold, from now on, all generations will call me blessed.

Won’t God avenge his chosen ones who are crying out to him day and night, and yet he exercises patience with them?

There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don’t walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.

having been reminded of the sincere faith that is in you, which lived first in your grandmother Lois, and your mother Eunice, and, I am persuaded, in you also.

Flee from youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

Please deliver me from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau; for I fear him, lest he come and strike me and the mothers with the children.

Against whom has the king of Israel come out? Whom do you pursue? A dead dog? A flea?

Yahweh, how my adversaries have increased! Many are those who rise up against me.

Have mercy on me, Yahweh. See my affliction by those who hate me, and lift me up from the gates of death,

He delivered me from my strong enemy, from those who hated me; for they were too mighty for me.

My God, I have trusted in you. Don’t let me be shamed. Don’t let my enemies triumph over me.

My times are in your hand. Deliver me from the hand of my enemies, and from those who persecute me.

But my enemies are vigorous and many. Those who hate me without reason are numerous.

For, behold, they lie in wait for my soul. The mighty gather themselves together against me, not for my disobedience, nor for my sin, Yahweh.

Redeem me from the oppression of man, so I will observe your precepts.

who remembered us in our low estate; for his loving kindness endures forever;

For the enemy pursues my soul. He has struck my life down to the ground. He has made me live in dark places, as those who have been long dead.

Hurry to answer me, Yahweh. My spirit fails. Don’t hide your face from me, so that I don’t become like those who go down into the pit.

Who could bring a charge against God’s chosen ones? It is God who justifies.

No, in all these things, we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.
