bbe@Psalms:42:2 @My soul is dry for need of God, the living God; when may I come and see the face of God?
bbe@Psalms:42:3 @My tears have been my food day and night, while they keep saying to me, Where is your God?
bbe@Psalms:42:4 @Let my soul be overflowing with grief when these things come back to my mind, how I went in company to the house of God, with the voice of joy and praise, with the song of those who were keeping the feast.
bbe@Psalms:42:5 @Why are you crushed down, O my soul? and why are you troubled in me? put your hope in God; for I will again give him praise who is my help and my God.
bbe@Psalms:42:6 @My soul is crushed down in me, so I will keep you in mind; from the land of Jordan and of the Hermons, from the hill Mizar.
bbe@Psalms:42:7 @Deep is sounding to deep at the noise of your waterfalls; all your waves have gone rolling over me.
bbe@Psalms:42:8 @But the Lord will send his mercy in the daytime, and in the night his song will be with me, a prayer to the God of my life.
bbe@Psalms:42:9 @I will say to God my Rock, Why have you let me go from your memory? why do I go in sorrow because of the attacks of my haters?

bbe@Psalms:43:2 @You are the God of my strength; why have you put me from you? why do I go in sorrow because of the attacks of my haters?
bbe@Psalms:43:3 @O send out your light and your true word; let them be my guide: let them take me to your holy hill, and to your tents.

bbe@Psalms:44:2 @Uprooting the nations with your hand, and planting our fathers in their place; cutting down the nations, but increasing the growth of your people.
bbe@Psalms:44:3 @For they did not make the land theirs by their swords, and it was not their arms which kept them safe; but your right hand, and your arm, and the light of your face, because you had pleasure in them.
bbe@Psalms:44:4 @You are my King and my God; ordering salvation for Jacob.
bbe@Psalms:44:5 @Through you will we overcome our haters; by your name will they be crushed under our feet who are violent against us.
bbe@Psalms:44:6 @I will not put faith in my bow, my sword will not be my salvation.

bbe@Psalms:44:8 @Our pride is in God at all times, to his name we give praise for ever. (Selah.)
bbe@Psalms:44:9 @But now you have sent us away from you, and put us to shame; you do not go out with our armies.
bbe@Psalms:44:10 @Because of this we are turned back by the attacker: those who have hate for us take our goods for themselves.
bbe@Psalms:44:11 @You have made us like sheep which are taken for meat; we are put to flight among the nations.
bbe@Psalms:44:12 @You let your people go for nothing; your wealth is not increased by their price.
bbe@Psalms:44:13 @You have made us to be looked down on by our neighbours, we are laughed at and shamed by those who are round about us.
bbe@Psalms:44:14 @Our name is a word of shame among the nations, a sign for the shaking of heads among the peoples.
bbe@Psalms:44:15 @My downfall is ever before me, and I am covered with the shame of my face;
bbe@Psalms:44:16 @Because of the voice of him who says sharp and bitter words; because of the hater and him who is the instrument of punishment.
bbe@Psalms:44:17 @All this has come on us, but still we have kept you in our memory; and we have not been false to your word.
bbe@Psalms:44:18 @Our hearts have not gone back, and our steps have not been turned out of your way;
bbe@Psalms:44:19 @Though you have let us be crushed in the place of jackals, though we are covered with darkest shade.
bbe@Psalms:44:20 @If the name of our God has gone out of our minds, or if our hands have been stretched out to a strange god,
bbe@Psalms:44:21 @Will not God make search for it? for he sees the secrets of the heart.
bbe@Psalms:44:22 @Truly, because of you we are put to death every day; we are numbered like sheep for destruction.
bbe@Psalms:44:23 @Why are you sleeping, O Lord? awake! and come to our help, do not give us up for ever.
bbe@Psalms:44:24 @Why is your face covered, and why do you give no thought to our trouble and our cruel fate?
bbe@Psalms:44:25 @For our souls are crushed down to the dust: our bodies are stretched out on the earth.
bbe@Psalms:44:26 @Up! and come to our help, and give us salvation because of your mercy.

bbe@Psalms:45:3 @Put on your sword, make it ready at your side, O strong chief, with your glory and power.
bbe@Psalms:45:4 @And go nobly on in your power, because you are good and true and without pride; and your right hand will be teaching you things of fear.
bbe@Psalms:45:5 @Your arrows are sharp in the heart of the king's haters; because of them the peoples are falling under you.
bbe@Psalms:45:6 @Your seat of power, O God, is for ever and ever; the rod of your kingdom is a rod of honour.
bbe@Psalms:45:7 @You have been a lover of righteousness and a hater of evil: and so God, your God, has put the oil of joy on your head, lifting you high over all other kings.
bbe@Psalms:45:8 @Your robes are full of the smell of all sorts of perfumes and spices; music from the king's ivory houses has made you glad.
bbe@Psalms:45:9 @Kings' daughters are among your noble women: on your right is the queen in gold of Ophir.
bbe@Psalms:45:10 @O daughter, give thought and attention, and let your ear be open; no longer keep in mind your people, and your father's house;
bbe@Psalms:45:11 @So will the king have a great desire for you, seeing how beautiful you are; because he is your lord, give him honour.
bbe@Psalms:45:12 @And the daughters of Tyre will be there with an offering; those who have wealth among the people will be looking for your approval.
bbe@Psalms:45:13 @In the great house the king's daughter is all shining: her clothing is worked with gold.
bbe@Psalms:45:14 @She will come before the king in robes of needlework; the virgins in her train will come before you.
bbe@Psalms:45:15 @With joy and rapture will they come; they will go into the king's house.
bbe@Psalms:45:16 @Your children will take the place of your fathers; so that you may make them rulers over all the earth.

bbe@Psalms:46:2 @For this cause we will have no fear, even though the earth is changed, and though the mountains are moved in the heart of the sea;
bbe@Psalms:46:3 @Though its waters are sounding and troubled, and though the mountains are shaking with their violent motion. (Selah.)
bbe@Psalms:46:4 @There is a river whose streams make glad the resting-place of God, the holy place of the tents of the Most High.
bbe@Psalms:46:5 @God has taken his place in her; she will not be moved: he will come to her help at the dawn of morning.

bbe@Psalms:46:7 @The Lord of armies is with us; the God of Jacob is our high tower. (Selah.)
bbe@Psalms:46:8 @Come, see the works of the Lord, the destruction which he has made in the earth.

bbe@Psalms:48:2 @Beautiful in its high position, the joy of all the earth, is the mountain of Zion, the mountain of God, the town of the great King.
bbe@Psalms:48:3 @In its buildings God is seen to be a high tower.
bbe@Psalms:48:4 @For see! the kings came together by agreement, they were joined together.
bbe@Psalms:48:5 @They saw it, and so were full of wonder; they were troubled, and went quickly away in fear.
bbe@Psalms:48:6 @Shaking came on them and pain, as on a woman in childbirth.
bbe@Psalms:48:7 @By you the ships of Tarshish are broken as by an east wind.
bbe@Psalms:48:8 @As it came to our ears so have we seen it, in the town of the Lord of armies, in the town of our God; God will keep it fixed for ever. (Selah.)
bbe@Psalms:48:9 @Our thoughts were of your mercy, O God, while we were in your Temple.
bbe@Psalms:48:10 @As your name is, O God, so is your praise to the ends of the earth; your right hand is full of righteousness.
bbe@Psalms:48:11 @Let there be joy in the mountain of Zion, and let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of your wise decisions.
bbe@Psalms:48:12 @Make your way about Zion, and go round it, numbering its towers.
bbe@Psalms:48:13 @Take note of its strong walls, looking well at its fair buildings; so that you may give word of it to the generation which comes after.
bbe@Psalms:48:14 @Because this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide.

bbe@Psalms:49:2 @High and low together, the poor, and those who have wealth.
bbe@Psalms:49:3 @From my mouth will come words of wisdom; and in the thoughts of my heart will be knowledge.
bbe@Psalms:49:4 @I will put my teaching into a story; I will make my dark sayings clear with music.
bbe@Psalms:49:5 @What cause have I for fear in the days of evil, when the evil-doing of those who are working for my downfall is round about me?
bbe@Psalms:49:6 @Even of those whose faith is in their wealth, and whose hearts are lifted up because of their stores.
bbe@Psalms:49:7 @Truly, no man may get back his soul for a price, or give to God the payment for himself;
bbe@Psalms:49:8 @(Because it takes a great price to keep his soul from death, and man is not able to give it.)
bbe@Psalms:49:9 @So that he might have eternal life, and never see the underworld.
bbe@Psalms:49:10 @For he sees that wise men come to their end, and foolish persons of low behaviour come to destruction together, letting their wealth go to others.
bbe@Psalms:49:11 @The place of the dead is their house for ever, and their resting-place through all generations; those who come after them give their names to their lands.
bbe@Psalms:49:12 @But man, like the animals, does not go on for ever; he comes to an end like the beasts.
bbe@Psalms:49:13 @This is the way of the foolish; their silver is for those who come after them, and their children get the pleasure of their gold. (Selah.)
bbe@Psalms:49:14 @Death will give them their food like sheep; the underworld is their fate and they will go down into it; their flesh is food for worms; their form is wasted away; the underworld is their resting-place for ever.
bbe@Psalms:49:15 @But God will get back my soul; for he will take me from the power of death. (Selah.)
bbe@Psalms:49:16 @Have no fear when wealth comes to a man, and the glory of his house is increased;
bbe@Psalms:49:17 @For at his death, he will take nothing away; his glory will not go down after him.
bbe@Psalms:49:18 @Though he might have pride in his soul in his life-time, and men will give you praise if you do well for yourself,
bbe@Psalms:49:19 @He will go to the generation of his fathers; he will not see the light again.
bbe@Psalms:49:20 @Man, like the animals, does not go on for ever; he comes to an end like the beasts.
