19:13 Moreover, keep me from committing flagrant sins;
do not allow such sins to control me.
Then I will be blameless,
and innocent of blatant rebellion.
25:7 Do not hold against me the sins of my youth or my rebellious acts!
Because you are faithful to me, extend to me your favor, O Lord!
28:3 Do not drag me away with evil men,
with those who behave wickedly,
who talk so friendly to their neighbors,
while they plan to harm them!
28:5 For they do not understand the Lord’s actions,
or the way he carries out justice.
The Lord will permanently demolish them.
31:8 You do not deliver me over to the power of the enemy;
you enable me to stand in a wide open place.
31:17 O Lord, do not let me be humiliated,
for I call out to you!
May evil men be humiliated!
May they go wailing to the grave!
32:9 Do not be like an unintelligent horse or mule,
which will not obey you
unless they are controlled by a bridle and bit.
37:7 Wait patiently for the Lord!
Wait confidently for him!
Do not fret over the apparent success of a sinner,
a man who carries out wicked schemes!
38:20 They repay me evil for the good I have done;
though I have tried to do good to them, they hurl accusations at me.
40:6 Receiving sacrifices and offerings are not your primary concern.
You make that quite clear to me!
You do not ask for burnt sacrifices and sin offerings.
40:17 I am oppressed and needy!
May the Lord pay attention to me!
You are my helper and my deliverer!
O my God, do not delay!
41:2 May the Lord protect him and save his life!
May he be blessed in the land!
Do not turn him over to his enemies!
42:9 I will pray to God, my high ridge:
“Why do you ignore me?
Why must I walk around mourning
because my enemies oppress me?”
43:2 For you are the God who shelters me.
Why do you reject me?
Why must I walk around mourning
because my enemies oppress me?
46:2 For this reason we do not fear when the earth shakes,
and the mountains tumble into the depths of the sea,
55:19 God, the one who has reigned as king from long ago,
will hear and humiliate them. (Selah)
They refuse to change,
and do not fear God.
56:4 In God – I boast in his promise –
in God I trust, I am not afraid.
What can mere men do to me?
68:16 Why do you look with envy, O mountains with many peaks,
at the mountain where God has decided to live?
Indeed the Lord will live there permanently!
69:28 May their names be deleted from the scroll of the living!
Do not let their names be listed with the godly!
70:5 I am oppressed and needy!
O God, hurry to me!
You are my helper and my deliverer!
O Lord, do not delay!
79:8 Do not hold us accountable for the sins of earlier generations!
Quickly send your compassion our way,
for we are in serious trouble!
95:8 He says, “Do not be stubborn like they were at Meribah,
like they were that day at Massah in the wilderness,
95:10 For forty years I was continually disgusted with that generation,
and I said, ‘These people desire to go astray;
they do not obey my commands.’
102:2 Do not ignore me in my time of trouble!
Listen to me!
When I call out to you, quickly answer me!
102:24 I say, “O my God, please do not take me away in the middle of my life!
You endure through all generations.
125:3 Indeed, the scepter of a wicked king will not settle
upon the allotted land of the godly.
Otherwise the godly might
do what is wrong.
139:3 You carefully observe me when I travel or when I lie down to rest;
you are aware of everything I do.
141:4 Do not let me have evil desires,
or participate in sinful activities
with men who behave wickedly.
I will not eat their delicacies.
143:7 Answer me quickly, Lord!
My strength is fading.
Do not reject me,
or I will join those descending into the grave.
143:10 Teach me to do what pleases you,
for you are my God.
May your kind presence
lead me into a level land.
