10 ‘Thus says the Lord God: “On that day it shall come to pass that thoughts will arise in your mind, and you will make an evil plan: 11 You will say, ‘I will go up against a land of unwalled villages; I will go to a peaceful people, who dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates’— 12 to take plunder and to take booty, to stretch out your hand against the...

A Psalm of David. A Contemplation. Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven,Whose sin is covered.2 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord does not impute iniquity,And in whose spirit there is no deceit. 3 When I kept silent, my bones grew oldThrough my groaning all the day long.4 For day and night Your hand was heavy upon me;My vitality was turned into the drought of summer.
