The moon and the stars, which YOU have ordained,
What is man that YOU are mindful of him,
And the son of man that YOU visit him?
For YOU have crowned him with glory and honor. "
Psalm 9:9-10 " The Lord also will be a refuge for the oppressed,
A refuge in times of trouble.
And those who know YOUR name
will put their trust in YOU;
For YOU, O LORD,
have not forsaken those who seek YOU. "
Psalm 10:2-4 " The wicked in his pride persecutes the poor;
Let them be caught in the plots
which they have devised. "
For the wicked boasts of his heart's desire;
He blesses the greedy and renounces the LORD.
The wicked in his proud countenance does not seek God;
God is in none of his thoughts. "
Psalm 11:5-7 " The Lord tests the righteous,
but the wicked and the one
who loves violence his soul hates.
Upon the wicked He will rain coals;
Fire and brimstone and a burning wind
Shall be the portion of their cup.
He loves righteousness;
His countenance beholds the upright."
Psalm 12:6 "The words of the Lord are pure words,
Like silver tried in a furnace of earth,
Purified seven times . "
