Today, we are reading Psalm 7, 27, 31, 34, 52.
| 1 | Shiggaion of David, which he sang unto the LORD, concerning the words of Cush the Benjamite. O LORD my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me: |
| 2 | Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver. |
| 3 | O LORD my God, if I have done this; if there be iniquity in my hands; |
| 4 | If I have rewarded evil unto him that was at peace with me; (yea, I have delivered him that without cause is mine enemy: ) |
| 5 | Let the enemy persecute my soul, and take it; yea, let him tread down my life upon the earth, and lay mine honor in the dust. Selah. |
| 6 | Arise, O LORD, in thine anger, lift up thyself because of the rage of mine enemies: and awake for me to the judgment that thou hast commanded. |
| 7 | So shall the congregation of the people compass thee about: for their sakes therefore return thou on high. |
| 8 | The LORD shall judge the people: judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me. |
| 9 | Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins. |
| 10 | My defense is of God, which saveth the upright in heart. |
| 11 | God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day. |
| 12 | If he turn not, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made it ready. |
| 13 | He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death; he ordaineth his arrows against the persecutors. |
| 14 | Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, and hath conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood. |
| 15 | He made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made. |
| 16 | His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing shall come down upon his own pate. |
| 17 | I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high. |
| 1 | A Psalm of David. The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? |
| 2 | When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell. |
| 3 | Though a host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident. |
| 4 | One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to inquire in his temple. |
| 5 | For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock. |
| 6 | And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD. |
| 7 | Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me. |
| 8 | When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek. |
| 9 | Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation. |
| 10 | When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up. |
| 11 | Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies. |
| 12 | Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty. |
| 13 | I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. |
| 14 | Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD. |
| 1 | To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness. |
| 2 | Bow down thine ear to me; deliver me speedily: be thou my strong rock, for a house of defense to save me. |
| 3 | For thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore for thy name's sake lead me, and guide me. |
| 4 | Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me: for thou art my strength. |
| 5 | Into thine hand I commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O LORD God of truth. |
| 6 | I have hated them that regard lying vanities: but I trust in the LORD. |
| 7 | I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy: for thou hast considered my trouble; thou hast known my soul in adversities; |
| 8 | And hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a large room. |
| 9 | Have mercy upon me, O LORD, for I am in trouble: mine eye is consumed with grief, yea, my soul and my belly. |
| 10 | For my life is spent with grief, and my years with sighing: my strength faileth because of mine iniquity, and my bones are consumed. |
| 11 | I was a reproach among all mine enemies, but especially among my neighbors, and a fear to mine acquaintance: they that did see me without fled from me. |
| 12 | I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel. |
| 13 | For I have heard the slander of many: fear was on every side: while they took counsel together against me, they devised to take away my life. |
| 14 | But I trusted in thee, O LORD: I said, Thou art my God. |
| 15 | My times are in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me. |
| 16 | Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: save me for thy mercies' sake. |
| 17 | Let me not be ashamed, O LORD; for I have called upon thee: let the wicked be ashamed, and let them be silent in the grave. |
| 18 | Let the lying lips be put to silence; which speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous. |
| 19 | Oh how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee; which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men! |
| 20 | Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man: thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues. |
| 21 | Blessed be the LORD: for he hath showed me his marvelous kindness in a strong city. |
| 22 | For I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes: nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee. |
| 23 | O love the LORD, all ye his saints: for the LORD preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer. |
| 24 | Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD. |
| 1 | A Psalm of David, when he changed his behavior before Abimelech; who drove him away, and he departed. I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth. |
| 2 | My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad. |
| 3 | O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together. |
| 4 | I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. |
| 5 | They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed. |
| 6 | This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles. |
| 7 | The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them. |
| 8 | O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him. |
| 9 | O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him. |
| 10 | The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the LORD shall not want any good thing. |
| 11 | Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the LORD. |
| 12 | What man is he that desireth life, and loveth many days, that he may see good? |
| 13 | Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile. |
| 14 | Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it. |
| 15 | The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry. |
| 16 | The face of the LORD is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth. |
| 17 | The righteous cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles. |
| 18 | The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit. |
| 19 | Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all. |
| 20 | He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken. |
| 21 | Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate. |
| 22 | The LORD redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate. |
| 1 | To the chief Musician, Maschil, A Psalm of David, when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, and said unto him, David is come to the house of Ahimelech. Why boastest thou thyself in mischief, O mighty man? the goodness of God endureth continually. |
| 2 | Thy tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp razor, working deceitfully. |
| 3 | Thou lovest evil more than good; and lying rather than to speak righteousness. Selah. |
| 4 | Thou lovest all devouring words, O thou deceitful tongue. |
| 5 | God shall likewise destroy thee forever, he shall take thee away, and pluck thee out of thy dwelling place, and root thee out of the land of the living. Selah. |
| 6 | The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him: |
| 7 | Lo, this is the man that made not God his strength; but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness. |
| 8 | But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God: I trust in the mercy of God forever and ever. |
| 9 | I will praise thee forever, because thou hast done it: and I will wait on thy name; for it is good before thy saints. |
