Bible in 90 Days Plan

¹When Israel went forth from Egypt, The house of Jacob from a people of a foreign language,

²Judah became His sanctuary; Israel, His dominion.

³The sea looked and fled; The Jordan turned back.

⁴The mountains skipped like rams, The hills, like lambs.

⁵What ails you, sea, that you flee? Jordan, that you turn back?

⁶Mountains, that you skip like rams? Hills, like lambs?

⁷Tremble, earth, before the Lord, Before the God of Jacob,

⁸Who turned the rock into a pool of water, The flint into a fountain of water.

¹Not to us, LORD, not to us, But to Your name give glory, Because of Your mercy, because of Your truth.

²Why should the nations say, “Where, then, is their God?”

³But our God is in the heavens; He does whatever He pleases.

⁴Their idols are silver and gold, The work of human hands.

⁵They have mouths, but they cannot speak; They have eyes, but they cannot see;

⁶They have ears, but they cannot hear; They have noses, but they cannot smell;

⁷They have hands, but they cannot feel; They have feet, but they cannot walk; They cannot make a sound with their throat.

⁸Those who make them will become like them, Everyone who trusts in them.

⁹Israel, trust in the LORD; He is their help and their shield.

¹⁰House of Aaron, trust in the LORD; He is their help and their shield.

¹¹You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD; He is their help and their shield.

¹²The LORD has been mindful of us; He will bless us. He will bless the house of Israel; He will bless the house of Aaron.

¹³He will bless those who fear the LORD, The small together with the great.

¹⁴May the LORD increase you, You and your children.

¹⁵May you be blessed of the LORD, Maker of heaven and earth.

¹⁶The heavens are the heavens of the LORD, But the earth He has given to the sons of mankind.

¹⁷The dead do not praise the LORD, Nor do any who go down into silence;

¹⁸But as for us, we will bless the LORD From this time and forever. Praise the LORD!

¹I love the LORD, because He hears My voice and my pleas.

²Because He has inclined His ear to me, Therefore I will call upon Him as long as I live.

³The snares of death encompassed me And the terrors of Sheol came upon me; I found distress and sorrow.

⁴Then I called upon the name of the LORD: “Please, LORD, save my life!”

⁵Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; Yes, our God is compassionate.

⁶The LORD watches over the simple; I was brought low, and He saved me.

⁷Return to your rest, my soul, For the LORD has dealt generously with you.

⁸For You have rescued my soul from death, My eyes from tears, And my feet from stumbling.

⁹I shall walk before the LORD In the land of the living.

¹⁰I believed when I said, “I am greatly afflicted.”

¹¹I said in my alarm, “All people are liars.”

¹²What shall I repay to the LORD For all His benefits to me?

¹³I will lift up the cup of salvation, And call upon the name of the LORD.

¹⁴I will pay my vows to the LORD; May it be in the presence of all His people!

¹⁵Precious in the sight of the LORD Is the death of His godly ones.

¹⁶O LORD, I surely am Your slave, I am Your slave, the son of Your female slave, You have unfastened my restraints.

¹⁷I will offer You a sacrifice of thanksgiving, And call upon the name of the LORD.

¹⁸I will pay my vows to the LORD, May it be in the presence of all His people,

¹⁹In the courtyards of the LORD’S house, In the midst of you, Jerusalem! Praise the LORD!

¹Praise the LORD, all nations; Sing His praises, all peoples!

²For His mercy toward us is great, And the truth of the LORD is everlasting. Praise the LORD!

¹Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good; For His mercy is everlasting.

²Let Israel say, “His mercy is everlasting.”

³Oh let the house of Aaron say, “His mercy is everlasting.”

⁴Let those who fear the LORD say, “His mercy is everlasting.”

⁵From my distress I called upon the LORD; The LORD answered me and put me in an open space.

⁶The LORD is for me; I will not fear; What can man do to me?

⁷The LORD is for me among those who help me; Therefore I will look with satisfaction on those who hate me.

⁸It is better to take refuge in the LORD Than to trust in people.

⁹It is better to take refuge in the LORD Than to trust in noblemen.

¹⁰All nations surrounded me; In the name of the LORD I will certainly fend them off.

¹¹They surrounded me, yes, they surrounded me; In the name of the LORD I will certainly fend them off.

¹²They surrounded me like bees; They were extinguished like a fire of thorn bushes; In the name of the LORD I will certainly fend them off.

¹³You pushed me violently so that I was falling, But the LORD helped me.

¹⁴The LORD is my strength and song, And He has become my salvation.

¹⁵The sound of joyful shouting and salvation is in the tents of the righteous; The right hand of the LORD performs valiantly.

¹⁶The right hand of the LORD is exalted; The right hand of the LORD performs valiantly.

¹⁷I will not die, but live, And tell of the works of the LORD.

¹⁸The LORD has disciplined me severely, But He has not turned me over to death.

¹⁹Open the gates of righteousness to me; I will enter through them, I will give thanks to the LORD.

²⁰This is the gate of the LORD; The righteous will enter through it.

²¹I will give thanks to You, for You have answered me, And You have become my salvation.

²²A stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone.

²³This came about from the LORD; It is marvelous in our eyes.

²⁴This is the day which the LORD has made; Let’s rejoice and be glad in it.

²⁵Please, O LORD, do save us; Please, O LORD, do send prosperity!

²⁶Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the LORD; We have blessed you from the house of the LORD.

²⁷The LORD is God, and He has given us light; Bind the festival sacrifice to the horns of the altar with cords.

²⁸You are my God, and I give thanks to You; You are my God, I exalt You.

²⁹Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good; For His mercy is everlasting.

¹Blessed are those whose way is blameless, Who walk in the Law of the LORD.

⁴Sharp arrows of the warrior, With the burning coals of the broom tree!

⁵Woe to me, for I reside in Meshech, For I have settled among the tents of Kedar!

⁶Too long has my soul had its dwelling With those who hate peace.

⁷I am for peace, but when I speak, They are for war.

¹I will raise my eyes to the mountains; From where will my help come?

²My help comes from the LORD, Who made heaven and earth.

³He will not allow your foot to slip; He who watches over you will not slumber.

⁴Behold, He who watches over Israel Will neither slumber nor sleep.

⁵The LORD is your protector; The LORD is your shade on your right hand.

⁶The sun will not beat down on you by day, Nor the moon by night.

⁷The LORD will protect you from all evil; He will keep your soul.

⁸The LORD will guard your going out and your coming in From this time and forever.

¹I was glad when they said to me, “Let’s go to the house of the LORD.”

²Our feet are standing Within your gates, Jerusalem,

³Jerusalem, that has been built As a city that is firmly joined together;

⁴To which the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD— An ordinance for Israel— To give thanks to the name of the LORD.

⁵For thrones were set there for judgment, The thrones of the house of David.

⁶Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: “May they prosper who love you.

⁷May peace be within your walls, And prosperity within your palaces.”

⁸For the sake of my brothers and my friends, I will now say, “May peace be within you.”

⁹For the sake of the house of the LORD our God, I will seek your good.

¹To You I have raised my eyes, You who are enthroned in the heavens!

²Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master, As the eyes of a female servant to the hand of her mistress, So our eyes look to the LORD our God, Until He is gracious to us.

³Be gracious to us, LORD, be gracious to us, For we have had much more than enough of contempt.

⁴Our soul has had much more than enough Of the scoffing of those who are at ease, And with the contempt of the proud.

¹“Had it not been the LORD who was on our side,” Let Israel say,

²“Had it not been the LORD who was on our side When people rose up against us,

³Then they would have swallowed us alive, When their anger was kindled against us;

⁴Then the waters would have flooded over us, The stream would have swept over our souls;

⁵Then the raging waters would have swept over our souls.”

⁶Blessed be the LORD, Who has not given us to be torn by their teeth.

⁷Our souls have escaped like a bird from the trapper’s snare; The snare is broken and we have escaped.

⁸Our help is in the name of the LORD, Who made heaven and earth.

¹Those who trust in the LORD Are like Mount Zion, which cannot be moved but remains forever.

²As the mountains surround Jerusalem, So the LORD surrounds His people From this time and forever.

³For the scepter of wickedness will not rest upon the land of the righteous, So that the righteous will not extend their hands to do wrong.

⁴Do good, LORD, to those who are good And to those who are upright in their hearts.

⁵But as for those who turn aside to their crooked ways, The LORD will lead them away with those who practice injustice. Peace be upon Israel.

¹When the LORD brought back the captives of Zion, We were like those who dream.

²Then our mouth was filled with laughter And our tongue with joyful shouting; Then they said among the nations, “The LORD has done great things for them.”

³The LORD has done great things for us; We are joyful.

⁴Restore our fortunes, LORD, As the streams in the South.

⁵Those who sow in tears shall harvest with joyful shouting.

⁶One who goes here and there weeping, carrying his bag of seed, Shall indeed come again with a shout of joy, bringing his sheaves with him.
