Those

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: “May those who love you prosper.

A song of ascents. Those who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion. It cannot be moved; it abides forever.

Do good, O LORD, to those who are good, and to the upright in heart.

But those who turn to crooked ways the LORD will banish with the evildoers. Peace be upon Israel.

Those who sow in tears will reap with shouts of joy.

Those who make them become like them, as do all who trust in them.

Do I not hate those who hate You, O LORD, and detest those who rise against You?

Do I not hate those who hate You, O LORD, and detest those who rise against You?

May the heads of those who surround me be covered in the trouble their lips have caused.

For the enemy has pursued my soul, crushing my life to the ground, making me dwell in darkness like those long since dead.

Answer me quickly, O LORD; my spirit fails. Do not hide Your face from me, or I will be like those who descend to the Pit.

He fulfills the desires of those who fear Him; He hears their cry and saves them.

…the LORD opens the eyes of the blind, the LORD lifts those who are weighed down, the LORD loves the righteous.

The LORD is pleased with those who fear Him, who hope in His loving devotion.

…let us swallow them alive like Sheol, and whole like those descending into the Pit.

He stores up sound wisdom for the upright; He is a shield to those who walk with integrity,

…from those who leave the straight paths to walk in the ways of darkness,

…from those who enjoy doing evil and rejoice in the twistedness of evil,

She is a tree of life to those who embrace her, and those who lay hold of her are blessed.

She is a tree of life to those who embrace her, and those who lay hold of her are blessed.

For they are life to those who find them, and health to the whole body.

They are all plain to the discerning, and upright to those who find knowledge.

I love those who love me, and those who seek me early shall find me.

I love those who love me, and those who seek me early shall find me.

…bestowing wealth on those who love me and making their treasuries full.

Now therefore, my sons, listen to me, for blessed are those who keep my ways.

…calling out to those who pass by, who make their paths straight.

Like vinegar to the teeth and smoke to the eyes, so is the slacker to those who send him.

The way of the LORD is a refuge to the upright, but destruction awaits those who do evil.

Deceit is in the hearts of those who devise evil, but the counselors of peace have joy.

Lying lips are detestable to the LORD, but those who deal faithfully are His delight.

The poor man is hated even by his neighbor, but many are those who love the rich.

Do not those who contrive evil go astray? But those who plan goodness find loving devotion and faithfulness.

Do not those who contrive evil go astray? But those who plan goodness find loving devotion and faithfulness.

The LORD detests the way of the wicked, but He loves those who pursue righteousness.

Life and death are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.

…to show you true and reliable words, that you may soundly answer those who sent you?

…for the LORD will take up their case and will plunder those who rob them.

Do not join those who drink too much wine or gorge themselves on meat.

Those who linger over wine, who go to taste mixed drinks.

Rescue those being led away to death, and restrain those stumbling toward the slaughter.

Rescue those being led away to death, and restrain those stumbling toward the slaughter.

…but it will go well with those who convict the guilty, and rich blessing will come upon them.

Like the cold of snow in the time of harvest is a trustworthy messenger to those who send him; he refreshes the soul of his masters.

A lying tongue hates those it crushes, and a flattering mouth causes ruin.

Those who forsake the law praise the wicked, but those who keep the law resist them.

Those who forsake the law praise the wicked, but those who keep the law resist them.

Evil men do not understand justice, but those who seek the LORD comprehend fully.

Every word of God is flawless; He is a shield to those who take refuge in Him.

There is a generation of those who curse their fathers and do not bless their mothers.

There is a generation of those who are pure in their own eyes and yet unwashed of their filth.

Do not spend your strength on women or your vigor on those who ruin kings.

Open your mouth for those with no voice, for the cause of all the dispossessed.

There is no remembrance of those who came before, and those yet to come will not be remembered by those who follow after.

There is no remembrance of those who came before, and those yet to come will not be remembered by those who follow after.

There is no remembrance of those who came before, and those yet to come will not be remembered by those who follow after.

I said to myself, “Behold, I have grown and increased in wisdom beyond all those before me who were over Jerusalem, and my mind has observed a wealth of wisdom and knowledge.”

There is no limit to all the people who were before them. Yet the successor will not be celebrated by those who come even later. This too is futile and a pursuit of the wind.

When good things increase, so do those who consume them; what then is the profit to the owner, except to behold them with his eyes?

Wisdom, like an inheritance, is good, and it benefits those who see the sun.

As no man has power over the wind to contain it, so no one has authority over his day of death. As no one can be discharged in wartime, so wickedness will not release those who practice it.

Although a sinner does evil a hundred times and still lives long, yet I also know that it will go well with those who fear God, who are reverent in His presence.

…on the day the keepers of the house tremble and the strong men stoop, when those grinding cease because they are few and those watching through windows see dimly,

…on the day the keepers of the house tremble and the strong men stoop, when those grinding cease because they are few and those watching through windows see dimly,

I encountered the watchmen on their rounds of the city. They beat me and bruised me; they took away my cloak, those guardians of the walls.

But my own vineyard is mine to give; the thousand shekels are for you, O Solomon, and two hundred are for those who tend its fruit.

But rebels and sinners will together be shattered, and those who forsake the LORD will perish.

Woe to those who rise early in the morning in pursuit of strong drink, who linger into the evening, to be inflamed by wine.

Woe to those who draw iniquity with cords of deceit and pull sin along with cart ropes,

…to those who say, “Let Him hurry and hasten His work so that we may see it! Let the plan of the Holy One of Israel come so that we may know it!”

Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who turn darkness to light and light to darkness, who replace bitter with sweet and sweet with bitter.

Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes and clever in their own sight.

Woe to those who are heroes in drinking wine and champions in mixing strong drink,

He lifts a banner for the distant nations and whistles for those at the ends of the earth. Behold—how speedily and swiftly they come!

Nevertheless, there will be no more gloom for those in distress. In the past He humbled the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, but in the future He will honor the Way of the Sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations:

The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of the shadow of death, a light has dawned.

For those who guide this people mislead them, and those they mislead are swallowed up.

For those who guide this people mislead them, and those they mislead are swallowed up.

Woe to those who enact unjust statutes and issue oppressive decrees,

As my hand seized the idolatrous kingdoms whose images surpassed those of Jerusalem and Samaria,

Those who see you will stare; they will ponder your fate: “Is this the man who shook the earth and made the kingdoms tremble,

But you are cast out of your grave like a rejected branch, covered by those slain with the sword, and dumped into a rocky pit like a carcass trampled underfoot.

And now the LORD says, “In three years, as a hired worker counts the years, Moab’s splendor will become an object of contempt, with all her many people. And those who are left will be few and feeble.”

In the evening, there is sudden terror! Before morning, they are no more! This is the portion of those who loot us and the lot of those who plunder us.

In the evening, there is sudden terror! Before morning, they are no more! This is the portion of those who loot us and the lot of those who plunder us.

Then the fishermen will mourn, all who cast a hook into the Nile will lament, and those who spread nets on the waters will pine away.

Those who made Cush their hope and Egypt their boast will be dismayed and ashamed.

And on that day the dwellers of this coastland will say, ‘See what has happened to our source of hope, those to whom we fled for help and deliverance from the king of Assyria! How then can we escape?’”

Yet her profits and wages will be set apart to the LORD; they will not be stored or saved, for her profit will go to those who live before the LORD, for abundant food and fine clothing.

They no longer sing and drink wine; strong drink is bitter to those who consume it.

For He has humbled those who dwell on high; He lays the lofty city low. He brings it down to the ground; He casts it into the dust.

Has the LORD struck Israel as He struck her oppressors? Was she killed like those who slayed her?

And in that day a great ram’s horn will sound, and those who were perishing in Assyria will come forth with those who were exiles in Egypt. And they will worship the LORD on the holy mountain in Jerusalem.

And in that day a great ram’s horn will sound, and those who were perishing in Assyria will come forth with those who were exiles in Egypt. And they will worship the LORD on the holy mountain in Jerusalem.

Woe to the majestic crown of Ephraim’s drunkards, to the fading flower of his glorious splendor, set on the summit above the fertile valley, the pride of those overcome by wine.

…a spirit of justice to him who sits in judgment, and a strength to those who repel the onslaught at the gate.

Woe to those who dig deep to hide their plans from the LORD. In darkness they do their works and say, “Who sees us, and who will know?”

…those who indict a man with a word, who ensnare the mediator at the gate, and who with false charges deprive the innocent of justice.

Then the wayward in spirit will come to understanding, and those who grumble will accept instruction.”

“Woe to the rebellious children,” declares the LORD, “to those who carry out a plan that is not Mine, who form an alliance, but against My will, heaping up sin upon sin.
