Psalms 41:11

For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.

Therefore he says, “When he ascended on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts to people.”

Behold, Yahweh’s eye is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his loving kindness,

For Yahweh takes pleasure in his people. He crowns the humble with salvation.

Since then the children have shared in flesh and blood, he also himself in the same way partook of the same, that through death he might bring to nothing him who had the power of death, that is, the devil,

He said to him, “If now I have found favor in your sight, then show me a sign that it is you who talk with me.

I waited patiently for Yahweh. He turned to me, and heard my cry.

Therefore I will give him a portion with the great. He will divide the plunder with the strong; because he poured out his soul to death and was counted with the transgressors; yet he bore the sins of many and made intercession for the transgressors.

Or how can one enter into the house of the strong man, and plunder his goods, unless he first bind the strong man? Then he will plunder his house.

are to deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

How could one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, unless their Rock had sold them, and Yahweh had delivered them up?

He also brought me out into a large place. He delivered me, because he delighted in me.

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

He brought me out also into a large place. He delivered me, because he delighted in me.

Yahweh is their strength. He is a stronghold of salvation to his anointed.

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

Unrighteous witnesses rise up. They ask me about things that I don’t know about.

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

Let them be disappointed and confounded together who rejoice at my calamity. Let them be clothed with shame and dishonor who magnify themselves against me.

For I said, “Don’t let them gloat over me, or exalt themselves over me when my foot slips.”

Yahweh will preserve him, and keep him alive. He shall be blessed on the earth, and he will not surrender him to the will of his enemies.

For it was not an enemy who insulted me, then I could have endured it. Neither was it he who hated me who raised himself up against me, then I would have hidden myself from him.

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

a false witness who utters lies, and he who sows discord among brothers.

This is the end of the matter. All has been heard. Fear God and keep his commandments; for this is the whole duty of man.

It will happen in that day that his burden will depart from off your shoulder, and his yoke from off your neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing oil.

Hezekiah also had said, “What is the sign that I will go up to Yahweh’s house?”

Yahweh, your God, is among you, a mighty one who will save. He will rejoice over you with joy. He will calm you in his love. He will rejoice over you with singing.

Now is the judgment of this world. Now the prince of this world will be cast out.

He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. To this end the Son of God was revealed: that he might destroy the works of the devil.

If an unrighteous witness rises up against any man to testify against him of wrongdoing,

Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, with cedar trees, carpenters, and masons; and they built David a house.

Then David returned to bless his household. Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, “How glorious the king of Israel was today, who uncovered himself today in the eyes of his servants’ maids, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovers himself!”

May all my enemies be ashamed and dismayed. They shall turn back, they shall be disgraced suddenly.

Save your people, and bless your inheritance. Be their shepherd also, and bear them up forever.

This poor man cried, and Yahweh heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.

For Yahweh hears the needy, and doesn’t despise his captive people.

We see no miraculous signs. There is no longer any prophet, neither is there among us anyone who knows how long.

Let my adversaries be clothed with dishonor. Let them cover themselves with their own shame as with a robe.

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

Blessed is everyone who fears Yahweh, who walks in his ways.

Though I walk in the middle of trouble, you will revive me. You will stretch out your hand against the wrath of my enemies. Your right hand will save me.

I will exalt you, my God, the King. I will praise your name forever and ever.

All your enemies have opened their mouth wide against you. They hiss and gnash their teeth. They say, “We have swallowed her up. Certainly this is the day that we looked for. We have found it. We have seen it.”

Have I any pleasure in the death of the wicked?” says the Lord Yahweh; “and not rather that he should return from his way, and live?

Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and extol and honor the King of heaven; for all his works are truth, and his ways justice; and those who walk in pride he is able to abase.

and they found none. Even though many false witnesses came forward, they found none. But at last two false witnesses came forward,

about judgment, because the prince of this world has been judged.

He said, “Lord Yahweh, how will I know that I will inherit it?”

Joseph found favor in his sight. He ministered to him, and Potiphar made him overseer over his house, and all that he had he put into his hand.

The officers shall speak to the people, saying, “What man is there who has built a new house, and has not dedicated it? Let him go and return to his house, lest he die in the battle, and another man dedicate it.

Then she said, “Let me find favor in your sight, my lord, because you have comforted me, and because you have spoken kindly to your servant, though I am not as one of your servants.”

the king said to Nathan the prophet, “See now, I dwell in a house of cedar, but God’s ark dwells within curtains.”

David came to his house at Jerusalem; and the king took the ten women his concubines, whom he had left to keep the house, and put them in custody, and provided them with sustenance, but didn’t go in to them. So they were shut up to the day of their death, living in widowhood.

David built an altar to Yahweh there, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings. So Yahweh was entreated for the land, and the plague was removed from Israel.

But he didn’t count Levi and Benjamin among them; for the king’s word was abominable to Joab.

God delivers me to the ungodly, and casts me into the hands of the wicked.

I broke the jaws of the unrighteous and plucked the prey out of his teeth.

Yes, he would have allured you out of distress, into a wide place, where there is no restriction. That which is set on your table would be full of fatness.

Now my head will be lifted up above my enemies around me. I will offer sacrifices of joy in his tent. I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to Yahweh.

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

Let those who favor my righteous cause shout for joy and be glad. Yes, let them say continually, “May Yahweh be magnified, who has pleasure in the prosperity of his servant!”

Let them be desolate by reason of their shame that tell me, “Aha! Aha!”

But as for me, I am like a green olive tree in God’s house. I trust in God’s loving kindness forever and ever.

Why should the nations say, “Where is their God?” Let it be known among the nations, before our eyes, that vengeance for your servants’ blood is being poured out.

Like a father has compassion on his children, so Yahweh has compassion on those who fear him.

The wicked will see it, and be grieved. He shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away. The desire of the wicked will perish.

Fulfill your promise to your servant, that you may be feared.

then they would have swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us;

Yahweh, don’t grant the desires of the wicked. Don’t let their evil plans succeed, or they will become proud.

Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain; but a woman who fears Yahweh, she shall be praised.

Kings shall be your foster fathers, and their queens your nursing mothers. They will bow down to you with their faces to the earth, and lick the dust of your feet. Then you will know that I am Yahweh; and those who wait for me shall not be disappointed.”

You will not be called Forsaken any more, nor will your land be called Desolate any more; but you will be called Hephzibah, and your land Beulah; for Yahweh delights in you, and your land will be married.

Then Jeremiah said, “That is false! I am not defecting to the Chaldeans.” But he didn’t listen to him; so Irijah seized Jeremiah, and brought him to the princes.

All that pass by clap their hands at you. They hiss and wag their head at the daughter of Jerusalem, saying, “Is this the city that men called ‘The perfection of beauty, the joy of the whole earth’?”

But Saul, still breathing threats and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest

Jacob said, “Please, no, if I have now found favor in your sight, then receive my present at my hand, because I have seen your face, as one sees the face of God, and you were pleased with me.

If indeed you will magnify yourselves against me, and plead against me my reproach,

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

Now I know that Yahweh saves his anointed. He will answer him from his holy heaven, with the saving strength of his right hand.

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

Don’t deliver me over to the desire of my adversaries, for false witnesses have risen up against me, such as breathe out cruelty.

You have not shut me up into the hand of the enemy. You have set my feet in a large place.

Don’t let them say in their heart, “Aha! That’s the way we want it!” Don’t let them say, “We have swallowed him up!”

Show me a sign of your goodness, that those who hate me may see it, and be shamed, because you, Yahweh, have helped me, and comforted me.

Blessed be Yahweh, who has not given us as a prey to their teeth.

Yahweh takes pleasure in those who fear him, in those who hope in his loving kindness.

Sing to Yahweh! Praise Yahweh, for he has delivered the soul of the needy from the hand of evildoers.

Having stripped the principalities and the powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
