O LORD, how manifold are thy works! in wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches.

He looketh on the earth, and it trembleth: he toucheth the hills, and they smoke.

Let the sinners be consumed out of the earth, and let the wicked be no more. Bless thou the LORD, O my soul. Praise ye the LORD.

He is the LORD our God: his judgments are in all the earth.

Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance:

Moreover he called for a famine upon the land: he brake the whole staff of bread.

Israel also came into Egypt; and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.

They shewed his signs among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.

Their land brought forth frogs in abundance, in the chambers of their kings.

He gave them hail for rain, and flaming fire in their land.

And did eat up all the herbs in their land, and devoured the fruit of their ground.

He smote also all the firstborn in their land, the chief of all their strength.

And gave them the lands of the heathen: and they inherited the labour of the people;

The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram.

Wondrous works in the land of Ham, and terrible things by the Red sea.

Yea, they despised the pleasant land, they believed not his word:

To overthrow their seed also among the nations, and to scatter them in the lands.

And shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan: and the land was polluted with blood.

And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west, from the north, and from the south.

A fruitful land into barrenness, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein.

He turneth the wilderness into a standing water, and dry ground into watersprings.

Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory above all the earth;

Let them be before the LORD continually, that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth.

He shall judge among the heathen, he shall fill the places with the dead bodies; he shall wound the heads over many countries.
