For the music director; according to the sheminith style; a psalm of David.
12:1 Deliver, Lord!
For the godly have disappeared;
people of integrity have vanished.
33:1 You godly ones, shout for joy because of the Lord!
It is appropriate for the morally upright to offer him praise.
37:14 Evil men draw their swords
and prepare their bows,
to bring down the oppressed and needy,
and to slaughter those who are godly.
37:25 I was once young, now I am old.
I have never seen a godly man abandoned,
or his children forced to search for food.
58:10 The godly will rejoice when they see vengeance carried out;
they will bathe their feet in the blood of the wicked.
58:11 Then observers will say,
“Yes indeed, the godly are rewarded!
Yes indeed, there is a God who judges in the earth!”
69:28 May their names be deleted from the scroll of the living!
Do not let their names be listed with the godly!
111:1 Praise the Lord!
I will give thanks to the Lord with my whole heart,
in the assembly of the godly and the congregation.
141:5 May the godly strike me in love and correct me!
May my head not refuse choice oil!
Indeed, my prayer is a witness against their evil deeds.
142:7 Free me from prison,
that I may give thanks to your name.
Because of me the godly will assemble,
for you will vindicate me.
146:8 The Lord gives sight to the blind.
The Lord lifts up all who are bent over.
The Lord loves the godly.
