'God' in the Bible

To You belongs silence [the submissive wonder of reverence], and [it bursts into] praise in Zion, O God;And to You the vow shall be performed.

By awesome and wondrous things You answer us in righteousness, O God of our salvation,You who are the trust and hope of all the ends of the earth and of the farthest sea;

You visit the earth and make it overflow [with water];You greatly enrich it;The stream of God is full of water;You provide their grain, when You have prepared the earth.

Shout joyfully to God, all the earth;

Say to God, “How awesome and fearfully glorious are Your works!Because of the greatness of Your power Your enemies will pretend to be obedient to You.

Come and see the works of God,He is awesome in His deeds toward the children of men.

Bless our God, O peoples,And make the sound of His praise be heard abroad,

For You have tested us, O God;You have refined us as silver is refined.

Come and hear, all who fear God [and worship Him with awe-inspired reverence and obedience],And I will tell what He has done for me.

But certainly God has heard [me];He has given heed to the voice of my prayer.

Blessed be God,Who has not turned away my prayerNor His lovingkindness from me.

God be gracious and kind-hearted to us and bless us,And make His face shine [with favor] on us— Selah.

Let the peoples praise You, O God;Let all the peoples praise You.

Let the peoples praise You, O God;Let all the peoples praise You.

The earth has yielded its harvest [as evidence of His approval];God, our God, blesses us.

God blesses us,And all the ends of the earth shall fear Him [with awe-inspired reverence and submissive wonder].

Let God arise, and His enemies be scattered;Let those who hate Him flee before Him.

As smoke is driven away, so drive them away;As wax melts before the fire,So let the wicked and guilty perish before [the presence of] God.

But let the righteous be glad; let them be in good spirits before God,Yes, let them rejoice with delight.

Sing to God, sing praises to His name;Lift up a song for Him who rides through the desert—His name is the Lord—be in good spirits before Him.

A father of the fatherless and a judge and protector of the widows,Is God in His holy habitation.

God makes a home for the lonely;He leads the prisoners into prosperity,Only the stubborn and rebellious dwell in a parched land.

O God, when You went out before Your people,When You marched through the wilderness, Selah.

The earth trembled;The heavens also poured down rain at the presence of God;Sinai itself trembled at the presence of God, the God of Israel.

You, O God, sent abroad plentiful rain;You confirmed Your inheritance when it was parched and weary.

Your flock found a dwelling place in it;O God, in Your goodness You provided for the poor.

A mountain of God is the mountain of Bashan;A [high] mountain of many summits is Mount Bashan [rising east of the Jordan].

Why do you look with envy, mountains with many peaks,At the mountain [of the city of Zion] which God has desired for His dwelling place?Yes, the Lord will dwell there forever.

The chariots of God are myriads, thousands upon thousands;The Lord is among them as He was at Sinai, in holiness.

You have ascended on high, You have led away captive Your captives;You have received gifts among men,Even from the rebellious also, that the Lord God may dwell there.

Blessed be the Lord, who bears our burden day by day,The God who is our salvation! Selah.

Ascribe strength to God;His majesty is over IsraelAnd His strength is in the skies.

O God, You are awesome and profoundly majestic from Your sanctuary;The God of Israel gives strength and power to His people.Blessed be God!

Save me, O God,For the waters have threatened my life [they have come up to my neck].

I am weary with my crying; my throat is parched;My eyes fail while I wait [with confident expectation] for my God.

O God, You know my folly;My wrongs are not hidden from You.

Do not let those who wait [confidently] for You be ashamed through me, O Lord God of hosts;Do not let those who seek You [as necessary for life itself] be dishonored through me, O God of Israel,

But as for me, my prayer is to You, O Lord, at an acceptable and opportune time;O God, in the greatness of Your favor and in the abundance of Your lovingkindness,Answer me with truth [that is, the faithfulness of Your salvation].

May they be blotted out of the book of life [and their lives come to an end]And may they not be recorded with the righteous (those in right standing with God).

But I am sorrowful and in pain;May Your salvation, O God, set me [securely] on high.

I will praise the name of God with songAnd magnify Him with thanksgiving.

The humble have seen it and are glad;You who seek God [requiring Him as your greatest need], let your heart revive and live.

But I am afflicted and needy;Come quickly to me, O God!You are my help and my rescuer;O Lord, do not delay.

Rescue me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked (godless),From the grasp of the unrighteous and ruthless man.

For You are my hope;O Lord God, You are my trust and the source of my confidence from my youth.

Saying, “God has abandoned him;Pursue and seize him, for there is no one to rescue him.”

O God, do not be far from me;O my God, come quickly to help me!

I will come with the mighty acts of the Lord God [and in His strength];I will make mention of Your righteousness, Yours alone.

O God, You have taught me from my youth,And I still declare Your wondrous works and miraculous deeds.

And even when I am old and gray-headed, O God, do not abandon me,Until I declare Your [mighty] strength to this generation,Your power to all who are to come.

Your righteousness, O God, reaches to the [height of the] heavens,You who have done great things;O God, who is like You, [who is Your equal]?

Until I came into the sanctuary of God;Then I understood [for I considered] their end.

My flesh and my heart may fail,But God is the rock and strength of my heart and my portion forever.

But as for me, it is good for me to draw near to God;I have made the Lord God my refuge and placed my trust in Him,That I may tell of all Your works.

O God, why have You rejected us forever?Why does Your anger smoke against the sheep of Your pasture?

O God, how long will the adversary scoff?Is the enemy to revile Your name forever?

Yet God is my King of old,Working salvation in the midst of the earth.

Arise, O God, plead Your own cause;Remember how the foolish man scoffs at You all day long.

We give thanks and praise to You, O God, we give thanks,For Your [wonderful works declare that Your] name is near;People declare Your wonders.

But God is the Judge;He puts down one and lifts up another.

But as for me, I will declare it and rejoice forever;I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

God is known in Judah;His name is great in Israel.

At Your rebuke, O God of Jacob,Both rider and horse were cast into a dead sleep [of death].

When God arose to [establish] judgment,To save all the humble of the earth. Selah.

Make vows to the Lord your God and fulfill them;Let all who are around Him bring gifts to Him who is to be feared [with awe-inspired reverence].

My voice rises to God, and I will cry aloud;My voice rises to God, and He will hear me.

I remember God; then I am disquieted and I groan;I sigh [in prayer], and my spirit grows faint. Selah.

Has God forgotten to be gracious?Or has He in anger withdrawn His compassion? Selah.

And I said, “This is my grief,That the right hand of the Most High has changed [and His lovingkindness is withheld].”

Your way, O God, is holy [far from sin and guilt].What god is great like our God?

You are the [awesome] God who works [powerful] wonders;You have demonstrated Your power among the people.

The waters [of the Red Sea] saw You, O God;The waters saw You, they were in anguish;The deeps also trembled.

That they should place their confidence in GodAnd not forget the works of God,But keep His commandments,

And not be like their fathers—A stubborn and rebellious generation,A generation that did not prepare its heart to know and follow God,And whose spirit was not faithful to God.

They did not keep the covenant of GodAnd refused to walk according to His law;

And in their hearts they put God to the testBy asking for food according to their [selfish] appetite.

Then they spoke against God;They said, “Can God prepare [food for] a table in the wilderness?

Because they did not believe in God [they did not rely on Him, they did not adhere to Him],And they did not trust in His salvation (His power to save).

Man ate the bread of angels;God sent them provision in abundance.

The wrath of God rose against themAnd killed some of the strongest of them,And subdued the choice young men of Israel.

When He killed [some of] them, then those remaining sought Him,And they returned [to Him] and searched diligently for God [for a time].

And they remembered that God was their rock,And the Most High God their Redeemer.

Again and again they tempted God,And distressed the Holy One of Israel.

But God led His own people forward like sheepAnd guided them in the wilderness like [a good shepherd with] a flock.

Yet they tempted and rebelled against the Most High GodAnd did not keep His testimonies (laws).
