'God' in the Bible

Through God, we will do valiantly. For it is he who will tread down our enemies. For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.

God of my praise, don't remain silent,

Help me, Yahweh, my God. Save me according to your loving kindness;

Who is like Yahweh, our God, who has his seat on high,

Tremble, you earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,

Why should the nations say, "Where is their God, now?"

But our God is in the heavens. He does whatever he pleases.

Yahweh is Gracious and righteous. Yes, our God is merciful.

Yahweh is God, and he has given us light. Bind the sacrifice with cords, even to the horns of the altar.

You are my God, and I will give thanks to you. You are my God, I will exalt you.

Depart from me, you evildoers, that I may keep the commandments of my God.

For the sake of the house of Yahweh our God, I will seek your good. A Song of Ascents.

Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress; so our eyes look to Yahweh, our God, until he has mercy on us.

Give thanks to the God of gods; for his loving kindness endures forever.

Oh give thanks to the God of heaven; for his loving kindness endures forever.

How precious to me are your thoughts, God! How vast is the sum of them!

If only you, God, would kill the wicked. Get away from me, you bloodthirsty men!

Search me, God, and know my heart. Try me, and know my thoughts.

I said to Yahweh, "You are my God." Listen to the cry of my petitions, Yahweh.

Teach me to do your will, for you are my God. Your Spirit is good. Lead me in the land of uprightness.

I will sing a new song to you, God. On a ten-stringed lyre, I will sing praises to you.

Happy are the people who are in such a situation. Happy are the people whose God is Yahweh. A praise psalm by David.

I will exalt you, my God, the King. I will praise your name forever and ever.

While I live, I will praise Yahweh. I will sing praises to my God as long as I exist.

Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in Yahweh, his God:

Yahweh will reign forever; your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise Yah!

Praise Yah, for it is good to sing praises to our God; for it is pleasant and fitting to praise him.

Sing to Yahweh with thanksgiving. Sing praises on the harp to our God,

Praise Yahweh, Jerusalem! Praise your God, Zion!

May the high praises of God be in their mouths, and a two-edged sword in their hand;

Praise Yah! Praise God in his sanctuary! Praise him in his heavens for his acts of power!

then you will understand the fear of Yahweh, and find the knowledge of God.

who forsakes the friend of her youth, and forgets the covenant of her God:

So you will find favor, and good understanding in the sight of God and man.

It is the glory of God to conceal a thing, but the glory of kings is to search out a matter.

"Every word of God is flawless. He is a shield to those who take refuge in him.

lest I be full, deny you, and say, 'Who is Yahweh?' or lest I be poor, and steal, and so dishonor the name of my God.

I applied my heart to seek and to search out by wisdom concerning all that is done under the sky. It is a heavy burden that God has given to the sons of men to be afflicted with.

There is nothing better for a man than that he should eat and drink, and make his soul enjoy good in his labor. This also I saw, that it is from the hand of God.

For to the man who pleases him, God gives wisdom, knowledge, and joy; but to the sinner he gives travail, to gather and to heap up, that he may give to him who pleases God. This also is vanity and a chasing after wind.

I have seen the burden which God has given to the sons of men to be afflicted with.

He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in their hearts, yet so that man can't find out the work that God has done from the beginning even to the end.

Also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy good in all his labor, is the gift of God.

I know that whatever God does, it shall be forever. Nothing can be added to it, nor anything taken from it; and God has done it, that men should fear before him.

That which is has been long ago, and that which is to be has been long ago: and God seeks again that which is passed away.

I said in my heart, "God will judge the righteous and the wicked; for there is a time there for every purpose and for every work."

I said in my heart, "As for the sons of men, God tests them, so that they may see that they themselves are like animals.

Don't be rash with your mouth, and don't let your heart be hasty to utter anything before God; for God is in heaven, and you on earth. Therefore let your words be few.

When you vow a vow to God, don't defer to pay it; for he has no pleasure in fools. Pay that which you vow.

Don't allow your mouth to lead you into sin. Don't protest before the messenger that this was a mistake. Why should God be angry at your voice, and destroy the work of your hands?

For in the multitude of dreams there are vanities, as well as in many words: but you must fear God.

Behold, that which I have seen to be good and proper is for one to eat and to drink, and to enjoy good in all his labor, in which he labors under the sun, all the days of his life which God has given him; for this is his portion.

Every man also to whom God has given riches and wealth, and has given him power to eat of it, and to take his portion, and to rejoice in his labor -- this is the gift of God.

For he shall not often reflect on the days of his life; because God occupies him with the joy of his heart.

a man to whom God gives riches, wealth, and honor, so that he lacks nothing for his soul of all that he desires, yet God gives him no power to eat of it, but an alien eats it. This is vanity, and it is an evil disease.

Consider the work of God, for who can make that straight, which he has made crooked?

In the day of prosperity be joyful, and in the day of adversity consider; yes, God has made the one side by side with the other, to the end that man should not find out anything after him.

It is good that you should take hold of this. Yes, also from that don't withdraw your hand; for he who fears God will come forth from them all.

I find more bitter than death the woman whose heart is snares and traps, whose hands are chains. Whoever pleases God shall escape from her; but the sinner will be ensnared by her.

Behold, this only have I found: that God made man upright; but they search for many schemes."

I say, "Keep the king's command!" because of the oath to God.

Though a sinner commits crimes a hundred times, and lives long, yet surely I know that it will be better with those who fear God, who are reverent before him.

But it shall not be well with the wicked, neither shall he lengthen days like a shadow; because he doesn't fear God.

Then I commended mirth, because a man has no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be joyful: for that will accompany him in his labor all the days of his life which God has given him under the sun.

then I saw all the work of God, that man can't find out the work that is done under the sun, because however much a man labors to seek it out, yet he won't find it. Yes even though a wise man thinks he can comprehend it, he won't be able to find it.

For all this I laid to my heart, even to explore all this: that the righteous, and the wise, and their works, are in the hand of God; whether it is love or hatred, man doesn't know it; all is before them.

Go your way -- eat your bread with joy, and drink your wine with a merry heart; for God has already accepted your works.

As you don't know what is the way of the wind, nor how the bones grow in the womb of her who is with child; even so you don't know the work of God who does all.

Rejoice, young man, in your youth, and let your heart cheer you in the days of your youth, and walk in the ways of your heart, and in the sight of your eyes; but know that for all these things God will bring you into judgment.

and the dust returns to the earth as it was, and the spirit returns to God who gave it.

This is the end of the matter. All has been heard. Fear God, and keep his commandments; for this is the whole duty of man.

For God will bring every work into judgment, with every hidden thing, whether it is good, or whether it is evil.

Hear the word of Yahweh, you rulers of Sodom! Listen to the law of our God, you people of Gomorrah!

Many peoples shall go and say, "Come, let's go up to the mountain of Yahweh, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths." For out of Zion the law shall go forth, and the word of Yahweh from Jerusalem.

but Yahweh of Armies is exalted in justice, and God the Holy One is sanctified in righteousness.

"Ask a sign of Yahweh your God; ask it either in the depth, or in the height above."

He said, "Listen now, house of David. Is it not enough for you to try the patience of men, that you will try the patience of my God also?

Take counsel together, and it will be brought to nothing; speak the word, and it will not stand: for God is with us."

When they tell you, "Consult with those who have familiar spirits and with the wizards, who chirp and who mutter:" shouldn't a people consult with their God? Should they consult the dead on behalf of the living?

They will pass through it, very distressed and hungry; and it will happen that when they are hungry, they will worry, and curse by their king and by their God. They will turn their faces upward,

For to us a child is born. To us a son is given; and the government will be on his shoulders. His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

A remnant will return, even the remnant of Jacob, to the mighty God.

Behold, God is my salvation. I will trust, and will not be afraid; for Yah, Yahweh, is my strength and song; and he has become my salvation."

Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldeans' pride, will be like when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.

You said in your heart, "I will ascend into heaven! I will exalt my throne above the stars of God! I will sit on the mountain of assembly, in the far north!

Yet gleanings will be left there, like the shaking of an olive tree, two or three olives in the top of the uppermost bough, four or five in the outermost branches of a fruitful tree," says Yahweh, the God of Israel.

For you have forgotten the God of your salvation, and have not remembered the rock of your strength. Therefore you plant pleasant plants, and set out foreign seedlings.

You are my threshing, and the grain of my floor!" That which I have heard from Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, I have declared to you.

and the residue of the number of the archers, the mighty men of the children of Kedar, will be few; for Yahweh, the God of Israel, has spoken it."

Therefore glorify Yahweh in the east, even the name of Yahweh, the God of Israel, in the islands of the sea!

Yahweh, you are my God. I will exalt you! I will praise your name, for you have done wonderful things, things planned long ago, in complete faithfulness and truth.

It shall be said in that day, "Behold, this is our God! We have waited for him, and he will save us! This is Yahweh! We have waited for him. We will be glad and rejoice in his salvation!"

In that day, this song will be sung in the land of Judah: "We have a strong city. God appoints salvation for walls and bulwarks.

Yahweh our God, other lords besides you have had dominion over us, but by you only will we make mention of your name.

For his God instructs him in right judgment, and teaches him.

But when he sees his children, the work of my hands, in the midst of him, they will sanctify my name. Yes, they will sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and will stand in awe of the God of Israel.

Therefore Yahweh will wait, that he may be gracious to you; and therefore he will be exalted, that he may have mercy on you, for Yahweh is a God of justice. Blessed are all those who wait for him.

Now the Egyptians are men, and not God; and their horses flesh, and not spirit. When Yahweh stretches out his hand, both he who helps shall stumble, and he who is helped shall fall, and they all shall be consumed together.

It will blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing. Lebanon's glory Lebanon will be given to it, the excellence of Carmel and Sharon. They will see Yahweh's glory, the excellence of our God.

Tell those who have a fearful heart, "Be strong. Don't be afraid. Behold, your God will come with vengeance, God's retribution. He will come and save you.
