אֶרֶץ

For the enemy hath persecuted my soul; he hath smitten my life down to the ground; he hath made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have been long dead.

I stretch forth my hands unto thee: my soul thirsteth after thee, as a thirsty land. Selah.

Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: thy spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness.

Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth truth for ever:

The LORD lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground.

Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.

He sendeth forth his commandment upon earth: his word runneth very swiftly.

Praise the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:

Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth:

Let them praise the name of the LORD: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven.

For the upright shall dwell in the land, and the perfect shall remain in it.

But the wicked shall be cut off from the earth, and the transgressors shall be rooted out of it.

The LORD by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heavens.

By me princes rule, and nobles, even all the judges of the earth.

I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.

While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world.

When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth:

Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men.

The righteous shall never be removed: but the wicked shall not inhabit the earth.

Behold, the righteous shall be recompensed in the earth: much more the wicked and the sinner.

Wisdom is before him that hath understanding; but the eyes of a fool are in the ends of the earth.

It is better to dwell in the wilderness, than with a contentious and an angry woman.

The heaven for height, and the earth for depth, and the heart of kings is unsearchable.

As cold waters to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country.
