That he should still live for ever, [and] not see corruption.

For he seeth [that] wise men die, likewise the fool and the brutish person perish, and leave their wealth to others.

Their inward thought [is], [that] their houses [shall continue] for ever, [and] their dwelling places to all generations; they call [their] lands after their own names.

But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall receive me. Selah.

For when he dieth he shall carry nothing away: his glory shall not descend after him.

And the heavens shall declare his righteousness: for God [is] judge himself. Selah.

I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices or thy burnt-offerings, [to have been] continually before me.

For every beast of the forest [is] mine, [and] the cattle upon a thousand hills.

If I were hungry, I would not tell thee: for the world [is] mine, and the fullness thereof.

For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin [is] ever before me.

For thou desirest not sacrifice: else would I give [it]: thou delightest not in burnt-offering.

God shall likewise destroy thee for ever, he shall take thee away, and pluck thee out of [thy] dwelling-place, and root thee out of the land of the living. Selah.

But I [am] like a green olive tree in the house of God: I trust in the mercy of God for ever and ever.

I will praise thee for ever, because thou hast done [it]: and I will wait on thy name; for [it is] good before thy saints.

There they were in great fear, [where] no fear was: for God hath scattered the bones of him that encampeth [against] thee: thou hast put [them] to shame, because God hath despised them.

For strangers have risen up against me, and oppressors seek after my soul: they have not set God before them. Selah.

I will freely sacrifice to thee: I will praise thy name, O LORD; for [it is] good.

For he hath delivered me out of all trouble: and my eye hath seen [its desire] upon my enemies.

Because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked: for they cast iniquity upon me, and in wrath they hate me.
