+  <chapter no='1'>
+    <verse no='1'>Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the  ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of  the scornful.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law  doth he meditate day and night.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water,  that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not  wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the  wind driveth away.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor  sinners in the congregation of the righteous.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way  of the ungodly shall perish.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='2'>
+    <verse no='1'>Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain  thing?</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take  counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords  from us.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the LORD shall  have them in derision.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in  his sore displeasure.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou  art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine  inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash  them in pieces like a potter's vessel.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges  of the earth.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way,  when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put  their trust in him.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='3'>
+    <verse no='1'>Lord, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they  that rise up against me.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him  in God. Selah.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the  lifter up of mine head.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of  his holy hill. Selah.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained  me.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have  set themselves against me round about.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all  mine enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the  ungodly.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>Salvation belongeth unto the LORD: thy blessing is upon thy  people. Selah.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='4'>
+    <verse no='1'>Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness: thou hast  enlarged me when I was in distress; have mercy upon me, and hear my  prayer.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>O ye sons of men, how long will ye turn my glory into shame?  how long will ye love vanity, and seek after leasing? Selah.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for  himself: the LORD will hear when I call unto him.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon  your bed, and be still. Selah.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in  the LORD.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>There be many that say, Who will shew us any good? LORD,  lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than in the time  that their corn and their wine increased.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD,  only makest me dwell in safety.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='5'>
+    <verse no='1'>Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my meditation.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for  unto thee will I pray.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the  morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness:  neither shall evil dwell with thee.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all  workers of iniquity.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the LORD will  abhor the bloody and deceitful man.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>But as for me, I will come into thy house in the multitude  of thy mercy: and in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of mine  enemies; make thy way straight before my face.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward  part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulchre; they  flatter with their tongue.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>Destroy thou them, O God; let them fall by their own  counsels; cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for  they have rebelled against thee.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let  them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also  that love thy name be joyful in thee.</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt  thou compass him as with a shield.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='6'>
+    <verse no='1'>O LORD, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chasten me in  thy hot displeasure.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>Have mercy upon me, O LORD; for I am weak: O LORD, heal me;  for my bones are vexed.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>My soul is also sore vexed: but thou, O LORD, how long?</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>Return, O LORD, deliver my soul: oh save me for thy mercies'  sake.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave  who shall give thee thanks?</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to  swim; I water my couch with my tears.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>Mine eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because  of all mine enemies.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for the LORD  hath heard the voice of my weeping.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will receive  my prayer.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>Let all mine enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them  return and be ashamed suddenly.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='7'>
+    <verse no='1'>O LORD my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all  them that persecute me, and deliver me:</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces,  while there is none to deliver.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>O LORD my God, If I have done this; if there be iniquity in  my hands;</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>If I have rewarded evil unto him that was at peace with me;  (yea, I have delivered him that without cause is mine enemy:)</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>Let the enemy persecute my soul, and take it; yea, let him  tread down my life upon the earth, and lay mine honour in the dust.  Selah.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>Arise, O LORD, in thine anger, lift up thyself because of  the rage of mine enemies: and awake for me to the judgment that thou  hast commanded.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>So shall the congregation of the people compass thee about:  for their sakes therefore return thou on high.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>The LORD shall judge the people: judge me, O LORD, according  to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but  establish the just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>My defence is of God, which saveth the upright in heart.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked  every day.</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>If he turn not, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his  bow, and made it ready.</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death; he  ordaineth his arrows against the persecutors.</verse>
+    <verse no='14'>Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, and hath conceived  mischief, and brought forth falsehood.</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>He made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch  which he made.</verse>
+    <verse no='16'>His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent  dealing shall come down upon his own pate.</verse>
+    <verse no='17'>I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness: and  will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='8'>
+    <verse no='1'>O LORD, our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the  earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained  strength because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy  and the avenger.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the  moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of  man, that thou visitest him?</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and  hast crowned him with glory and honour.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy  hands; thou hast put all things under his feet:</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever  passeth through the paths of the seas.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='9'>
+    <verse no='1'>I will praise thee, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will shew  forth all thy marvellous works.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to  thy name, O thou most High.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>When mine enemies are turned back, they shall fall and  perish at thy presence.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>For thou hast maintained my right and my cause; thou satest  in the throne judging right.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>Thou hast rebuked the heathen, thou hast destroyed the  wicked, thou hast put out their name for ever and ever.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>O thou enemy, destructions are come to a perpetual end: and  thou hast destroyed cities; their memorial is perished with them.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>But the LORD shall endure for ever: he hath prepared his  throne for judgment.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall  minister judgment to the people in uprightness.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge  in times of trouble.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee:  for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>Sing praises to the LORD, which dwelleth in Zion: declare  among the people his doings.</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>When he maketh inquisition for blood, he remembereth them:  he forgetteth not the cry of the humble.</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>Have mercy upon me, O LORD; consider my trouble which I  suffer of them that hate me, thou that liftest me up from the gates of  death:</verse>
+    <verse no='14'>That I may shew forth all thy praise in the gates of the  daughter of Zion: I will rejoice in thy salvation.</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>The heathen are sunk down in the pit that they made: in the  net which they hid is their own foot taken.</verse>
+    <verse no='16'>The LORD is known by the judgment which he executeth: the  wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah.</verse>
+    <verse no='17'>The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations  that forget God.</verse>
+    <verse no='18'>For the needy shall not alway be forgotten: the expectation  of the poor shall not perish for ever.</verse>
+    <verse no='19'>Arise, O LORD; let not man prevail: let the heathen be  judged in thy sight.</verse>
+    <verse no='20'>Put them in fear, O LORD: that the nations may know  themselves to be but men. Selah.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='10'>
+    <verse no='1'>Why standest thou afar off, O LORD? why hidest thou thyself  in times of trouble?</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>The wicked in his pride doth persecute the poor: let them be  taken in the devices that they have imagined.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>For the wicked boasteth of his heart's desire, and blesseth  the covetous, whom the LORD abhorreth.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not  seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>His ways are always grievous; thy judgments are far above  out of his sight: as for all his enemies, he puffeth at them.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for I shall  never be in adversity.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his  tongue is mischief and vanity.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>He sitteth in the lurking places of the villages: in the  secret places doth he murder the innocent: his eyes are privily set  against the poor.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>He lieth in wait secretly as a lion in his den: he lieth in  wait to catch the poor: he doth catch the poor, when he draweth him  into his net.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>He croucheth, and humbleth himself, that the poor may fall  by his strong ones.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>He hath said in his heart, God hath forgotten: he hideth his  face; he will never see it.</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>Arise, O LORD; O God, lift up thine hand: forget not the  humble.</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? he hath said in his  heart, Thou wilt not require it.</verse>
+    <verse no='14'>Thou hast seen it; for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to  requite it with thy hand: the poor committeth himself unto thee; thou  art the helper of the fatherless.</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>Break thou the arm of the wicked and the evil man: seek out  his wickedness till thou find none.</verse>
+    <verse no='16'>The LORD is King for ever and ever: the heathen are perished  out of his land.</verse>
+    <verse no='17'>LORD, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt  prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear:</verse>
+    <verse no='18'>To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of  the earth may no more oppress.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='11'>
+    <verse no='1'>In the LORD put I my trust: how say ye to my soul, Flee as a  bird to your mountain?</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>For, lo, the wicked bend their bow, they make ready their  arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in  heart.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>The LORD is in his holy temple, the LORD's throne is in  heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>The LORD trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that  loveth violence his soul hateth.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone,  and an horrible tempest: this shall be the portion of their cup.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>For the righteous LORD loveth righteousness; his countenance  doth behold the upright.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='12'>
+    <verse no='1'>Help, LORD; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail  from among the children of men.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: with  flattering lips and with a double heart do they speak.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>The LORD shall cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue  that speaketh proud things:</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are  our own: who is lord over us?</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the  needy, now will I arise, saith the LORD; I will set him in safety from  him that puffeth at him.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a  furnace of earth, purified seven times.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from  this generation for ever.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are  exalted.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='13'>
+    <verse no='1'>How long wilt thou forget me, O LORD? for ever? how long  wilt thou hide thy face from me?</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in  my heart daily? how long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>Consider and hear me, O LORD my God: lighten mine eyes, lest  I sleep the sleep of death;</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him; and those  that trouble me rejoice when I am moved.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>But I have trusted in thy mercy; my heart shall rejoice in  thy salvation.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>I will sing unto the LORD, because he hath dealt bountifully  with me.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='14'>
+    <verse no='1'>The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are  corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth  good.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men,  to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>They are all gone aside, they are all together become  filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my  people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>There were they in great fear: for God is in the generation  of the righteous.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>Ye have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the LORD is  his refuge.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! when  the LORD bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall  rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='15'>
+    <verse no='1'>Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in  thy holy hill?</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and  speaketh the truth in his heart.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to  his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth  them that fear the LORD. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth  not.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>He that putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh  reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be  moved.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='16'>
+    <verse no='1'>Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>O my soul, thou hast said unto the LORD, Thou art my Lord:  my goodness extendeth not to thee;</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the  excellent, in whom is all my delight.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another  god: their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take up their  names into my lips.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>The LORD is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup:  thou maintainest my lot.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have  a goodly heritage.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel: my reins  also instruct me in the night seasons.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my  right hand, I shall not be moved.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh  also shall rest in hope.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou  suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is  fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='17'>
+    <verse no='1'>Hear the right, O LORD, attend unto my cry, give ear unto my  prayer, that goeth not out of feigned lips.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>Let my sentence come forth from thy presence; let thine eyes  behold the things that are equal.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>Thou hast proved mine heart; thou hast visited me in the  night; thou hast tried me, and shalt find nothing; I am purposed that  my mouth shall not transgress.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>Concerning the works of men, by the word of thy lips I have  kept me from the paths of the destroyer.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>Hold up my goings in thy paths, that my footsteps slip not.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>I have called upon thee, for thou wilt hear me, O God:  incline thine ear unto me, and hear my speech.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>Shew thy marvellous lovingkindness, O thou that savest by  thy right hand them which put their trust in thee from those that rise  up against them.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of  thy wings,</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>From the wicked that oppress me, from my deadly enemies, who  compass me about.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>They are inclosed in their own fat: with their mouth they  speak proudly.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>They have now compassed us in our steps: they have set their  eyes bowing down to the earth;</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>Like as a lion that is greedy of his prey, and as it were a  young lion lurking in secret places.</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>Arise, O LORD, disappoint him, cast him down: deliver my  soul from the wicked, which is thy sword:</verse>
+    <verse no='14'>From men which are thy hand, O LORD, from men of the world,  which have their portion in this life, and whose belly thou fillest  with thy hid treasure: they are full of children, and leave the rest of  their substance to their babes.</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall  be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='18'>
+    <verse no='1'>I will love thee, O LORD, my strength.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my  God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my  salvation, and my high tower.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so  shall I be saved from mine enemies.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>The sorrows of death compassed me, and the floods of ungodly  men made me afraid.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>The sorrows of hell compassed me about: the snares of death  prevented me.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried unto my  God: he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him,  even into his ears.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations also of  the hills moved and were shaken, because he was wroth.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of  his mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>He bowed the heavens also, and came down: and darkness was  under his feet.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: yea, he did fly upon  the wings of the wind.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>He made darkness his secret place; his pavilion round about  him were dark waters and thick clouds of the skies.</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>At the brightness that was before him his thick clouds  passed, hail stones and coals of fire.</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>The LORD also thundered in the heavens, and the Highest gave  his voice; hail stones and coals of fire.</verse>
+    <verse no='14'>Yea, he sent out his arrows, and scattered them; and he shot  out lightnings, and discomfited them.</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>Then the channels of waters were seen, and the foundations  of the world were discovered at thy rebuke, O LORD, at the blast of the  breath of thy nostrils.</verse>
+    <verse no='16'>He sent from above, he took me, he drew me out of many  waters.</verse>
+    <verse no='17'>He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them which  hated me: for they were too strong for me.</verse>
+    <verse no='18'>They prevented me in the day of my calamity: but the LORD  was my stay.</verse>
+    <verse no='19'>He brought me forth also into a large place; he delivered  me, because he delighted in me.</verse>
+    <verse no='20'>The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness;  according to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me.</verse>
+    <verse no='21'>For I have kept the ways of the LORD, and have not wickedly  departed from my God.</verse>
+    <verse no='22'>For all his judgments were before me, and I did not put away  his statutes from me.</verse>

+    <verse no='4'>We will not hide them from their children, shewing to the  generation to come the praises of the LORD, and his strength, and his  wonderful works that he hath done.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>For he established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a law  in Israel, which he commanded our fathers, that they should make them  known to their children:</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>That the generation to come might know them, even the  children which should be born; who should arise and declare them to  their children:</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the  works of God, but keep his commandments:</verse>

+    <verse no='9'>The children of Ephraim, being armed, and carrying bows,  turned back in the day of battle.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>They kept not the covenant of God, and refused to walk in  his law;</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>And forgat his works, and his wonders that he had shewed  them.</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>Marvellous things did he in the sight of their fathers, in  the land of Egypt, in the field of Zoan.</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>He divided the sea, and caused them to pass through; and he  made the waters to stand as an heap.</verse>
+    <verse no='14'>In the daytime also he led them with a cloud, and all the  night with a light of fire.</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>He clave the rocks in the wilderness, and gave them drink as  out of the great depths.</verse>
+    <verse no='16'>He brought streams also out of the rock, and caused waters  to run down like rivers.</verse>
+    <verse no='17'>And they sinned yet more against him by provoking the most  High in the wilderness.</verse>
+    <verse no='18'>And they tempted God in their heart by asking meat for their  lust.</verse>
+    <verse no='19'>Yea, they spake against God; they said, Can God furnish a  table in the wilderness?</verse>
+    <verse no='20'>Behold, he smote the rock, that the waters gushed out, and  the streams overflowed; can he give bread also? can he provide flesh  for his people?</verse>
+    <verse no='21'>Therefore the LORD heard this, and was wroth: so a fire was  kindled against Jacob, and anger also came up against Israel;</verse>
+    <verse no='22'>Because they believed not in God, and trusted not in his  salvation:</verse>
+    <verse no='23'>Though he had commanded the clouds from above, and opened  the doors of heaven,</verse>
+    <verse no='24'>And had rained down manna upon them to eat, and had given  them of the corn of heaven.</verse>
+    <verse no='25'>Man did eat angels' food: he sent them meat to the full.</verse>
+    <verse no='26'>He caused an east wind to blow in the heaven: and by his  power he brought in the south wind.</verse>
+    <verse no='27'>He rained flesh also upon them as dust, and feathered fowls  like as the sand of the sea:</verse>
+    <verse no='28'>And he let it fall in the midst of their camp, round about  their habitations.</verse>
+    <verse no='29'>So they did eat, and were well filled: for he gave them  their own desire;</verse>
+    <verse no='30'>They were not estranged from their lust. But while their  meat was yet in their mouths,</verse>
+    <verse no='31'>The wrath of God came upon them, and slew the fattest of  them, and smote down the chosen men of Israel.</verse>
+    <verse no='32'>For all this they sinned still, and believed not for his  wondrous works.</verse>
+    <verse no='33'>Therefore their days did he consume in vanity, and their  years in trouble.</verse>
+    <verse no='34'>When he slew them, then they sought him: and they returned  and enquired early after God.</verse>
+    <verse no='35'>And they remembered that God was their rock, and the high  God their redeemer.</verse>
+    <verse no='36'>Nevertheless they did flatter him with their mouth, and they  lied unto him with their tongues.</verse>
+    <verse no='37'>For their heart was not right with him, neither were they  stedfast in his covenant.</verse>
+    <verse no='38'>But he, being full of compassion, forgave their iniquity,  and destroyed them not: yea, many a time turned he his anger away, and  did not stir up all his wrath.</verse>
+    <verse no='39'>For he remembered that they were but flesh; a wind that  passeth away, and cometh not again.</verse>
+    <verse no='40'>How oft did they provoke him in the wilderness, and grieve  him in the desert!</verse>
+    <verse no='41'>Yea, they turned back and tempted God, and limited the Holy  One of Israel.</verse>
+    <verse no='42'>They remembered not his hand, nor the day when he delivered  them from the enemy.</verse>
+    <verse no='43'>How he had wrought his signs in Egypt, and his wonders in  the field of Zoan.</verse>
+    <verse no='44'>And had turned their rivers into blood; and their floods,  that they could not drink.</verse>
+    <verse no='45'>He sent divers sorts of flies among them, which devoured  them; and frogs, which destroyed them.</verse>

+    <verse no='47'>He destroyed their vines with hail, and their sycomore trees  with frost.</verse>
+    <verse no='48'>He gave up their cattle also to the hail, and their flocks  to hot thunderbolts.</verse>
+    <verse no='49'>He cast upon them the fierceness of his anger, wrath, and  indignation, and trouble, by sending evil angels among them.</verse>
+    <verse no='50'>He made a way to his anger; he spared not their soul from  death, but gave their life over to the pestilence;</verse>
+    <verse no='51'>And smote all the firstborn in Egypt; the chief of their  strength in the tabernacles of Ham:</verse>
+    <verse no='52'>But made his own people to go forth like sheep, and guided  them in the wilderness like a flock.</verse>
+    <verse no='53'>And he led them on safely, so that they feared not: but the  sea overwhelmed their enemies.</verse>
+    <verse no='54'>And he brought them to the border of his sanctuary, even to  this mountain, which his right hand had purchased.</verse>
+    <verse no='55'>He cast out the heathen also before them, and divided them  an inheritance by line, and made the tribes of Israel to dwell in their  tents.</verse>
+    <verse no='56'>Yet they tempted and provoked the most high God, and kept  not his testimonies:</verse>
+    <verse no='57'>But turned back, and dealt unfaithfully like their fathers:  they were turned aside like a deceitful bow.</verse>
+    <verse no='58'>For they provoked him to anger with their high places, and  moved him to jealousy with their graven images.</verse>
+    <verse no='59'>When God heard this, he was wroth, and greatly abhorred  Israel:</verse>
+    <verse no='60'>So that he forsook the tabernacle of Shiloh, the tent which  he placed among men;</verse>
+    <verse no='61'>And delivered his strength into captivity, and his glory  into the enemy's hand.</verse>
+    <verse no='62'>He gave his people over also unto the sword; and was wroth  with his inheritance.</verse>
+    <verse no='63'>The fire consumed their young men; and their maidens were  not given to marriage.</verse>
+    <verse no='64'>Their priests fell by the sword; and their widows made no  lamentation.</verse>
+    <verse no='65'>Then the LORD awaked as one out of sleep, and like a mighty  man that shouteth by reason of wine.</verse>
+    <verse no='66'>And he smote his enemies in the hinder parts: he put them to  a perpetual reproach.</verse>
+    <verse no='67'>Moreover he refused the tabernacle of Joseph, and chose not  the tribe of Ephraim:</verse>
+    <verse no='68'>But chose the tribe of Judah, the mount Zion which he loved.</verse>
+    <verse no='69'>And he built his sanctuary like high palaces, like the earth  which he hath established for ever.</verse>

+    <verse no='15'>And he gave them their request; but sent leanness into their  soul.</verse>
+    <verse no='16'>They envied Moses also in the camp, and Aaron the saint of  the LORD.</verse>

+    <verse no='30'>Then stood up Phinehas, and executed judgment: and so the  plague was stayed.</verse>
+    <verse no='31'>And that was counted unto him for righteousness unto all  generations for evermore.</verse>
+    <verse no='32'>They angered him also at the waters of strife, so that it  went ill with Moses for their sakes:</verse>

+    <verse no='34'>They did not destroy the nations, concerning whom the LORD  commanded them:</verse>

+    <verse no='39'>Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a  whoring with their own inventions.</verse>
+    <verse no='40'>Therefore was the wrath of the LORD kindled against his  people, insomuch that he abhorred his own inheritance.</verse>
