"Psalms" is one of the books of the Bible. It gets this name from the fact that it is a collection of individual poems each known as a "psalm" which was originally set to music.\n\nFor easy reference each book of the Bible is broken down into chapters and verses. Normally this is written chapter:verse so 417 could refer to 4:17 (chapter 4, verse 17) 41:7 (chapter 41 verse 7). However Psalms chapter 4 has only 8 verses so perhaps it refers to chapter 41 verse 7.\n\nPsalm 41 is a poem attributed to David, who was King over Jerusalem around 1000 B.C. You can read Psalm 41 in any Bible. A variety of translations are available online at www.gospelcom.net.\n\nIn the King James Version of the bible, Psalm 41:7 reads, "All that hate me whisper together against me: against me do they devise my hurt."

PSALM 139 :)\n\nPsalm 139\nFor the director of music. Of David. A psalm. \n 1 O LORD, you have searched me \n       and you know me. \n 2 You know when I sit and when I rise; \n       you perceive my thoughts from afar. \n\n 3 You discern my going out and my lying down; \n       you are familiar with all my ways. \n\n 4 Before a word is on my tongue \n       you know it completely, O LORD. \n\n 5 You hem me in—behind and before; \n       you have laid your hand upon me. \n\n 6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, \n       too lofty for me to attain. \n\n 7 Where can I go from your Spirit? \n       Where can I flee from your presence? \n\n 8 If I go up to the heavens, you are there; \n       if I make my bed in the depths, [a] you are there. \n\n 9 If I rise on the wings of the dawn, \n       if I settle on the far side of the sea, \n\n 10 even there your hand will guide me, \n       your right hand will hold me fast. \n\n 11 If I say, "Surely the darkness will hide me \n       and the light become night around me," \n\n 12 even the darkness will not be dark to you; \n       the night will shine like the day, \n       for darkness is as light to you. \n\n 13 For you created my inmost being; \n       you knit me together in my mother's womb. \n\n 14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; \n       your works are wonderful, \n       I know that full well. \n\n 15 My frame was not hidden from you \n       when I was made in the secret place. \n       When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, \n\n 16 your eyes saw my unformed body. \n       All the days ordained for me \n       were written in your book \n       before one of them came to be. \n\n 17 How precious to [b] me are your thoughts, O God! \n       How vast is the sum of them! \n\n 18 Were I to count them, \n       they would outnumber the grains of sand. \n       When I awake, \n       I am still with you. \n\n 19 If only you would slay the wicked, O God! \n       Away from me, you bloodthirsty men! \n\n 20 They speak of you with evil intent; \n       your adversaries misuse your name. \n\n 21 Do I not hate those who hate you, O LORD, \n       and abhor those who rise up against you? \n\n 22 I have nothing but hatred for them; \n       I count them my enemies. \n\n 23 Search me, O God, and know my heart; \n       test me and know my anxious thoughts. \n\n 24 See if there is any offensive way in me, \n       and lead me in the way everlasting

Now you're just lying. Sorry.\n\n20Behold, I have received commandment to bless: and he hath blessed; and I cannot reverse it. \n\n 21He hath not beheld iniquity in Jacob, neither hath he seen perverseness in Israel: the LORD his God is with him, and the shout of a king is among them. \n\n 22God brought them out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn. \n\n 23Surely there is no enchantment against Jacob, neither is there any divination against Israel: according to this time it shall be said of Jacob and of Israel, What hath God wrought! \n\n 24Behold, the people shall rise up as a great lion, and lift up himself as a young lion: he shall not lie down until he eat of the prey, and drink the blood of the slain.\n\n\nIn context, this means that God chose Israel. Ta-da! He chose not to see anything in them negative. That's love.

Nope,it's one of those passages that I disagree with.What you quoted was one of many unethical verses in the bible.I don't believe or follow everything I read.

First of all, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob are not dead people. They are in heaven In Matthew 22 it is said: 29Jesus replied, "You are in error because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God.....have you not read what God said to you, 32'I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob'[a]? He is not the God of the dead but of the living." \n\nSo I guess that replies to 1st part of your question. As for the second, I think you don't need a real answer, that was your funny way of asking. Isn't it?  If you would like to refer to Judah then go ahead but means you refer to their God: The Devil!!!

Nice to see you again Rev. Here is the full chapter along with my take on it.\n\nEcclesiastes 1 (New International Version)\nNew International Version (NIV)\nCopyright © 1973, 1978, 1984 by International Bible Society\nEcclesiastes 1\nEverything Is Meaningless \n 1 The words of the Teacher, [a] son of David, king in Jerusalem: \n 2 "Meaningless! Meaningless!" \n       says the Teacher. \n       "Utterly meaningless! \n       Everything is meaningless." \n\n 3 What does man gain from all his labor \n       at which he toils under the sun? \n\n 4 Generations come and generations go, \n       but the earth remains forever. \n\n 5 The sun rises and the sun sets, \n       and hurries back to where it rises. \n\n 6 The wind blows to the south \n       and turns to the north; \n       round and round it goes, \n       ever returning on its course. \n\n 7 All streams flow into the sea, \n       yet the sea is never full. \n       To the place the streams come from, \n       there they return again. \n\n 8 All things are wearisome, \n       more than one can say. \n       The eye never has enough of seeing, \n       nor the ear its fill of hearing. \n\n 9 What has been will be again, \n       what has been done will be done again; \n       there is nothing new under the sun. \n\n 10 Is there anything of which one can say, \n       "Look! This is something new"? \n       It was here already, long ago; \n       it was here before our time. \n\n 11 There is no remembrance of men of old, \n       and even those who are yet to come \n       will not be remembered \n       by those who follow.\nThe word abide has a slight range of meaning.**abide by : to act or behave in accordance with or in obedience to**\nIt helps to have the context. This passage is an emotional cry. The author is realizing his insignificance and compares his temporal life on Earth to the age and lawfulness of the Earth. This understanding is essential to saving faith. Try reading it again and try to identify with the writer.

I didn't bother reading it because I feel fairly certain that you're reading those verses out of context and without any understanding of either the author's intent or the underlying theological framwework of the ancient Israelites.\n\nUpdate: I have now read it and am entirely certain that you're reading those verses out of context and without any understanding of either the author's intent or the underlying theological framwework of the ancient Israelites.

Well friend,\nI am a christian.\nAnd this is what that verse means to me.\n\nThe main problem with christians is that they always like to read such verses from a worldy perspective ignoring the spiritual aspect of it.\n\nLook at the begining it mentions of future and hope. Thats what we should be aiming for NOT earthly fortunes or satisfactions.\n\nSeeking the Lord comes with calling upon our Lord as well as praying to Him NOT just sitting around and trying to "argue" out things in your mind. Honesty is important here.\n\nNow consider, the phrase...\n"will restore your fortunes and gather you from all the nations and all the places where I have driven you, says the LORD, and I will bring you back to the place from which I sent you into exile."\n\nSome people like to take the that and say, Hey, God will bless me!!\nIt is true but does it mention necessarily EARTHLY blessings? No. I believe its more spiritual blessings that you will inherit one day in the afterlife. For the spiritual blessings are eternal as opposed to the temporary blessings on earth.\n\nWell, dont seek after earthly things as others do, these are all vanity.\n\nAs for me,\n"Jesus is enough"\nNothing else I want.\n\nRegards

It is confusing. That is why I read my Bible everyday. I believe it is the Word of God. That is all He has given me to go on. I do feel sorry for people who do not realize this. They are easily swayed. It also keeps me on track by belonging to a church. Jesus loves the church, He is coming back for the church.

Even when I was a Pagan, I knew the Bible pretty well. I still studied it out of interest. I found it was an interesting book, and I loved the poetry aspect of it all. Of course as a Pagan, I did not believe that Jesus was the Son of God.  ( I've since turned my heart to the Lord Jesus Christ and Have a much deeper understanding of the Bible)\n\nI do understand, why the "Christians Only" thing, although I read many questions.\nIn the Beginning, when I first started on yahoo answers, I quickly learnt that many people like to bash religions on here, and people post gross, hateful and negitive things in Christian questions for no reason. I guess I've learnt to expect it on here.\n\nIf you put a question out like  " Christians, what is your favourite verse in the Bible".  Many christians will answer with genuine answers. Non-christians will answer aswell with some great heartfelt answers too.  Unfortunately some non-christians will post rude comments that have nothing to do with the question. Sexuial comments, religion bashing,off topic remarks, disrespectful posts.\nIf you leave a question open to "Whats you favourite verse in the Bible, it seems to be a magnet for even more nasty comments.\nSo I guess I can see why people post  " Christians only" \nBut I'm sure they mean " Christians Only, or Respectful people that wont bash their religion"\n\nOh and my favourite Psalm is...Psalm 19 1-9\n\nThe heavens declare the glory of God; \n the skies proclaim the work of his hands. \n Day after day they pour forth speech; \n night after night they display knowledge. \n There is no speech or language \n where their voice is not heard.

This website is just someones personal interpretation of the verses in the Bible.  Read the bible for yourself and then ask God  himself for any needed explanation. He just might answer you !\n\nGood luck with your spiritual journey!

How about taking that quotation a bit further- includsing the verses that come afterwards...\n\n"18. I will set up a prophet for them from among their brothers like you, and I will put My words into his mouth, and he will speak to them all that I command him.\n19. And it will be, that whoever does not hearken to My words that he speaks in My name, I will exact [it] of him.\n20. But the prophet who intentionally speaks a word in My name, which I did not command him to speak, or who speaks in the name of other gods, that prophet shall die.\n21. Now if you say to yourself, "How will we know the word that the Lord did not speak?"\n22. If the prophet speaks in the name of the Lord, and the thing does not occur and does not come about, that is the thing the Lord did not speak. The prophet has spoken it wantonly; you shall not be afraid of him."\n\nand let us not forget from Deuteronomy, Chapter 13\n\n"1. Everything I command you that you shall be careful to do it. You shall neither add to it, nor subtract from it.\n2. If there will arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of a dream, and he gives you a sign or a wonder,\n3. and the sign or the wonder of which he spoke to you happens, [and he] says, "Let us go after other gods which you have not known, and let us worship them,"\n4. you shall not heed the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of a dream; for the Lord, your God, is testing you, to know whether you really love the Lord, your God, with all your heart and with all your soul."\n\nYep- no prohpet can change the law of God- it is eternal and even somebody doing miraclkes is just a test- and one you pass by ignoring them!

hmmmm, this will be good!!\n\nFor: GINEVRA1WEASLEY, how is he pulling things of contexts when it's from your very own Bible? 32 (Bible) Scholars couldn't get it right and I doubt that you'll be able to get it right..
