Chronological Plan
Read the Bible in the order that the events happened.
Today, we are reading Psalm 3-4; Psalm 12-13; Psalm 28, 55.
1 | A Psalm of David. Unto thee will I cry, O LORD my rock; be not silent to me: lest, if thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down into the pit. |
2 | Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle. |
3 | Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, which speak peace to their neighbors, but mischief is in their hearts. |
4 | Give them according to their deeds, and according to the wickedness of their endeavors: give them after the work of their hands; render to them their desert. |
5 | Because they regard not the works of the LORD, nor the operation of his hands, he shall destroy them, and not build them up. |
6 | Blessed be the LORD, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications. |
7 | The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him. |
8 | The LORD is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed. |
9 | Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: feed them also, and lift them up forever. |
1 | To the chief Musician on Neginoth, Maschil, A Psalm of David. Give ear to my prayer, O God; and hide not thyself from my supplication. |
2 | Attend unto me, and hear me: I mourn in my complaint, and make a noise; |
3 | Because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked: for they cast iniquity upon me, and in wrath they hate me. |
4 | My heart is sore pained within me: and the terrors of death are fallen upon me. |
5 | Fearfulness and trembling are come upon me, and horror hath overwhelmed me. |
6 | And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at rest. |
7 | Lo, then would I wander far off, and remain in the wilderness. Selah. |
8 | I would hasten my escape from the windy storm and tempest. |
9 | Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongues: for I have seen violence and strife in the city. |
10 | Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof: mischief also and sorrow are in the midst of it. |
11 | Wickedness is in the midst thereof: deceit and guile depart not from her streets. |
12 | For it was not an enemy that reproached me; then I could have borne it: neither was it he that hated me that did magnify himself against me; then I would have hid myself from him: |
13 | But it was thou, a man mine equal, my guide, and mine acquaintance. |
14 | We took sweet counsel together, and walked unto the house of God in company. |
15 | Let death seize upon them, and let them go down quick into hell: for wickedness is in their dwellings, and among them. |
16 | As for me, I will call upon God; and the LORD shall save me. |
17 | Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice. |
18 | He hath delivered my soul in peace from the battle that was against me: for there were many with me. |
19 | God shall hear, and afflict them, even he that abideth of old. Selah. Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not God. |
20 | He hath put forth his hands against such as be at peace with him: he hath broken his covenant. |
21 | The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was in his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet were they drawn swords. |
22 | Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved. |
23 | But thou, O God, shalt bring them down into the pit of destruction: bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days; but I will trust in thee. |
