4905|7919-56 of Asaph.> 623 Give ear, 238-54 O my people, 5971 [to] my law: 8451 incline 5186-54 your ears 241 to the words 561 of my mouth. 6310 |
| 2 |
I will open 6605-4 my mouth 6310 in a parable: 4912 I will utter 5042-55 dark sayings 2420 of old: 6924 |
| 3 |
Which we have heard 8085-1 and known, 3045-4 and our fathers 1 have told 5608-14 us. |
| 4 |
We will not hide 3582-17 [them] from their children, 1121 shewing 5608-18 to the generation 1755 to come 314 the praises 8416 of the LORD, 3068 and his strength, 5807 and his wonderful works 6381-12 that he hath done. 6213-1 |
| 5 |
For he established 6965-55 a testimony 5715 in Jacob, 3290 and appointed 7760-1 a law 8451 in Israel, 3478 which he commanded 6680-14 our fathers, 1 that they should make them known 3045-53 to their children: 1121 |
| 6 |
That the generation 1755 to come 314 might know 3045-4 [them, even] the children 1121 [which] should be born; 3205-11 [who] should arise 6965-4 and declare 5608-17 [them] to their children: 1121 |
| 7 |
That they might set 7760-4 their hope 3689 in God, 430 and not forget 7911-4 the works 4611 of God, 410 but keep 5341-4 his commandments: 4687 |
| 8 |
And might not be as their fathers, 1 a stubborn 5637-6 and rebellious 4784-6 generation; 1755 a generation 1755 [that] set not their heart 3820 aright, 3559-52 and whose spirit 7307 was not stedfast 539-8 with God. 410 |
| 9 |
The children 1121 of Ephraim, 669 [being] armed, 5401-6 [and] carrying 7411-6 bows, 7198 turned back 2015-1 in the day 3117 of battle. 7128 |
| 10 |
They kept 8104-1 not the covenant 1285 of God, 430 and refused 3985-14 to walk 3212-2 in his law; 8451 |
| 11 |
And forgat 7911-4 his works, 5949 and his wonders 6381-12 that he had shewed 7200-52 them. |
| 12 |
Marvellous things 6382 did 6213-1 he in the sight 5048 of their fathers, 1 in the land 776 of Egypt, 4714 [in] the field 7704 of Zoan. 6814 |
| 13 |
He divided 1234-1 the sea, 3220 and caused them to pass through; 5674-55 and he made the waters 4325 to stand 5324-55 as an heap. 5067 |
| 14 |
In the daytime 3119 also he led 5148-55 them with a cloud, 6051 and all the night 3915 with a light 216 of fire. 784 |
| 15 |
He clave 1234-17 the rocks 6697 in the wilderness, 4057 and gave [them] drink 8248-55 as [out of] the great 7227 depths. 8415 |
| 16 |
He brought streams 5140-6 also out 3318-55 of the rock, 5553 and caused waters 4325 to run down 3381-55 like rivers. 5104 |
| 17 |
And they sinned 2398-2 yet more 3254-55 against him by provoking 4784-53 the most High 5945 in the wilderness. 6723 |
| 18 |
And they tempted 5254-17 God 410 in their heart 3824 by asking 7592-2 meat 400 for their lust. 5315 |
| 19 |
Yea, they spake 1696-17 against God; 430 they said, 559-1 Can 3201-4 God 410 furnish 6186-2 a table 7979 in the wilderness? 4057 |
| 20 |
Behold, he smote 5221-52 the rock, 6697 that the waters 4325 gushed out, 2100-4 and the streams 5158 overflowed; 7857-4 can 3201-4 he give 5414-2 bread 3899 also? can 518 he provide 3559-55 flesh 7607 for his people? 5971 |
| 21 |
Therefore the LORD 3068 heard 8085-1 [this], and was wroth: 5674-101 so a fire 784 was kindled 5400-8 against Jacob, 3290 and anger 639 also came up 5927-1 against Israel; 3478 |
| 22 |
Because they believed 539-52 not in God, 430 and trusted 982-1 not in his salvation: 3444 |
| 23 |
Though he had commanded 6680-17 the clouds 7834 from above, 4605 and opened 6605-1 the doors 1817 of heaven, 8064 |
| 24 |
And had rained 4305-55 down manna 4478 upon them to eat, 398-2 and had given 5414-1 them of the corn 1715 of heaven. 8064 |
| 25 |
Man 376 did eat 398-1 angels' 47 food: 3899 he sent 7971-1 them meat 6720 to the full. 7648 |
| 26 |
He caused an east wind 6921 to blow 5265-55 in the heaven: 8064 and by his power 5797 he brought 5090-17 in the south wind. 8486 |
| 27 |
He rained 4305-55 flesh 7607 also upon them as dust, 6083 and feathered 3671 fowls 5775 like as the sand 2344 of the sea: 3220 |
| 28 |
And he let [it] fall 5307-55 in the midst 7130 of their camp, 4264 round about 5439 their habitations. 4908 |
| 29 |
So they did eat, 398-4 and were well 3966 filled: 7646-4 for he gave 935-55 them their own desire; 8378 |
| 30 |
They were not estranged 2114-1 from their lust. 8378 But while their meat 400 [was] yet in their mouths, 6310 |
| 31 |
The wrath 639 of God 430 came 5927-1 upon them, and slew 2026-4 the fattest 4924 of them, and smote down 3766-52 the chosen 970 [men] of Israel. 3478 |
| 32 |
For all this they sinned 2398-1 still, and believed 539-52 not for his wondrous works. 6381-12 |
| 33 |
Therefore their days 3117 did he consume 3615-17 in vanity, 1892 and their years 8141 in trouble. 928 |
| 34 |
When he slew 2026-1 them, then they sought 1875-1 him: and they returned 7725-1 and enquired early 7836-14 after God. 410 |
| 35 |
And they remembered 2142-4 that God 430 [was] their rock, 6697 and the high 5945 God 410 their redeemer. 1350-6 |
| 36 |
Nevertheless they did flatter 6601-17 him with their mouth, 6310 and they lied 3576-17 unto him with their tongues. 3956 |
| 37 |
For their heart 3820 was not right 3559-12 with him, neither were they stedfast 539-8 in his covenant. 1285 |
| 38 |
But he, [being] full of compassion, 7349 forgave 3722-17 [their] iniquity, 5771 and destroyed 7843-55 [them] not: yea, many a time 7235-52 turned he his anger 639 away, 7725-53 and did not stir up 5782-55 all his wrath. 2534 |
| 39 |
For he remembered 2142-4 that they [were but] flesh; 1320 a wind 7307 that passeth away, 1980-6 and cometh not again. 7725-4 |
| 40 |
How oft 4100 did they provoke 4784-55 him in the wilderness, 4057 [and] grieve 6087-55 him in the desert! 3452 |
| 41 |
Yea, they turned back 7725-4 and tempted 5254-17 God, 410 and limited 8428-52 the Holy One 6918 of Israel. 3478 |
| 42 |
They remembered 2142-1 not his hand, 3027 [nor] the day 3117 when he delivered 6299-1 them from the enemy. 6862 |
| 43 |
How he had wrought 7760-1 his signs 226 in Egypt, 4714 and his wonders 4159 in the field 7704 of Zoan: 6814 |
| 44 |
And had turned 2015-4 their rivers 2975 into blood; 1818 and their floods, 5140-6 that they could not drink. 8354-4 |
| 45 |
He sent 7971-17 divers sorts of flies 6157 among them, which devoured 398-4 them; and frogs, 6854 which destroyed 7843-55 them. |
| 46 |
He gave 5414-4 also their increase 2981 unto the caterpiller, 2625 and their labour 3018 unto the locust. 697 |
| 47 |
He destroyed 2026-4 their vines 1612 with hail, 1259 and their sycomore trees 8256 with frost. 2602 |
| 48 |
He gave up 5462-55 their cattle 1165 also to the hail, 1259 and their flocks 4735 to hot thunderbolts. 7565 |
| 49 |
He cast 7971-17 upon them the fierceness 2740 of his anger, 639 wrath, 5678 and indignation, 2195 and trouble, 6869 by sending 4917 evil 7451 angels 4397 [among them]. |
| 50 |
He made 6424-17 a way 5410 to his anger; 639 he spared 2820-1 not their soul 5315 from death, 4194 but gave their life 2416 over 5462-52 to the pestilence; 1698 |
| 51 |
And smote 5221-55 all the firstborn 1060 in Egypt; 4714 the chief 7225 of [their] strength 202 in the tabernacles 168 of Ham: 2526 |
| 52 |
But made his own people 5971 to go forth 5265-55 like sheep, 6629 and guided 5090-17 them in the wilderness 4057 like a flock. 5739 |
| 53 |
And he led 5148-55 them on safely, 983 so that they feared 6342-1 not: but the sea 3220 overwhelmed 3680-14 their enemies. 341-6 |
| 54 |
And he brought 935-55 them to the border 1366 of his sanctuary, 6944 [even to] this mountain, 2022 [which] his right hand 3225 had purchased. 7069-1 |
| 55 |
He cast out 1644-17 the heathen 1471 also before 6440 them, and divided 5307-55 them an inheritance 5159 by line, 2256 and made the tribes 7626 of Israel 3478 to dwell 7931-55 in their tents. 168 |
| 56 |
Yet they tempted 5254-17 and provoked 4784-55 the most high 5945 God, 430 and kept 8104-1 not his testimonies: 5713 |
| 57 |
But turned back, 5472-11 and dealt unfaithfully 898-4 like their fathers: 1 they were turned aside 2015-8 like a deceitful 7423 bow. 7198 |
| 58 |
For they provoked him to anger 3707-55 with their high places, 1116 and moved him to jealousy 7065-55 with their graven images. 6456 |
| 59 |
When God 430 heard 8085-1 [this], he was wroth, 5674-101 and greatly 3966 abhorred 3988-4 Israel: 3478 |
| 60 |
So that he forsook 5203-4 the tabernacle 4908 of Shiloh, 7887 the tent 168 [which] he placed 7931-14 among men; 120 |
| 61 |
And delivered 5414-4 his strength 5797 into captivity, 7628 and his glory 8597 into the enemy's 6862 hand. 3027 |
| 62 |
He gave his people 5971 over 5462-55 also unto the sword; 2719 and was wroth 5674-98 with his inheritance. 5159 |
| 63 |
The fire 784 consumed 398-1 their young men; 970 and their maidens 1330 were not given to marriage. 1984-27 |
| 64 |
Their priests 3548 fell 5307-1 by the sword; 2719 and their widows 490 made no lamentation. 1058-4 |
| 65 |
Then the Lord 136 awaked 3364-4 as one out of sleep, 3463 [and] like a mighty man 1368 that shouteth 7442-114 by reason of wine. 3196 |
| 66 |
And he smote 5221-55 his enemies 6862 in the hinder parts: 268 he put 5414-1 them to a perpetual 5769 reproach. 2781 |
| 67 |
Moreover he refused 3988-4 the tabernacle 168 of Joseph, 3130 and chose 977-1 not the tribe 7626 of Ephraim: 669 |
| 68 |
But chose 977-4 the tribe 7626 of Judah, 3063 the mount 2022 Zion 6726 which he loved. 157-1 |
| 69 |
And he built 1129-4 his sanctuary 4720 like high 7311-6 [palaces], like the earth 776 which he hath established 3245-1 for ever. 5769 |
| 70 |
He chose 977-4 David 1732 also his servant, 5650 and took 3947-4 him from the sheepfolds: 4356 6629 |
| 71 |
From following 310 the ewes great with young 5763-6 he brought 935-52 him to feed 7462-2 Jacob 3290 his people, 5971 and Israel 3478 his inheritance. 5159 |
| 72 |
So he fed 7462-55 them according to the integrity 8537 of his heart; 3824 and guided 5148-55 them by the skilfulness 8394 of his hands. 3709 |
