Psalms 69:29

Compare all

27 ^aAdd iniquity to their iniquity,
^bAnd let them not come into Your righteousness.

28 Let them ^abe blotted out of the book of the living,
^bAnd not be written with the righteous.

29 But I am poor and sorrowful;
Let Your salvation, O God, set me up on high.

30 ^aI will praise the name of God with a song,
And will magnify Him with thanksgiving.

31 ^aThis also shall please the Lord better than an ox or bull,
Which has horns and hooves.

32 ^aThe humble shall see this and be glad;
And you who seek God, ^byour hearts shall live.

33 For the Lord hears the poor,
And does not despise ^aHis prisoners.

34 ^aLet heaven and earth praise Him,
The seas ^band everything that moves in them.

35 ^aFor God will save Zion
And build the cities of Judah,
That they may dwell there and possess it.
