Psalms 93

The Majesty of the Lord.

1 The Lordreigns, He is clothed with majesty;

The Lordhas clothed and girded Himself with strength;

Indeed, the world is firmly established, it will not be moved.

2 Your throne is established from of old;

You are from everlasting.

3 The floods have lifted up, O Lord,

The floods have lifted up their voice,

The floods lift up their pounding waves.

4 More than the sounds of many waters,

Thanthe mighty breakers of the sea,

The Lordon high is mighty.

5 Your testimonies are fully confirmed;

Holiness befits Your house,

O Lord, forevermore.

Psalms 94

The Lord Implored to Avenge His People.

1 O Lord, God of vengeance,

God of vengeance, shine forth!

2 Rise up, O Judge of the earth,

Render recompense to the proud.

3 How long shall the wicked, O Lord,

How long shall the wicked exult?

4 They pour forthwords,they speak arrogantly;

All who do wickedness vaunt themselves.

5 They crush Your people, O Lord,

And afflict Your heritage.

6 They slay the widow and the stranger

And murder the orphans.

7 They have said, “The Lorddoes not see,

Nor does the God of Jacob pay heed.”

8 Pay heed, you senseless among the people;

And when will you understand, stupid ones?

9 He who planted the ear, does He not hear?

He who formed the eye, does He not see?

10 He who chastens the nations, will He not rebuke,

EvenHe who teaches man knowledge?

11 The Lordknows the thoughts of man,

That they are amerebreath.

12 Blessed is the man whom You chasten, O Lord,

And whom You teach out of Your law;

13 That You may grant him relief from the days of adversity,

Until a pit is dug for the wicked.

14 For the Lordwill not abandon His people,

Nor will He forsake His inheritance.

15 For judgment will again be righteous,

And all the upright in heart will follow it.

16 Who will stand up for me against evildoers?

Who will take his stand for me against those who do wickedness?

17 If the Lordhad not been my help,

My soul would soon have dwelt inthe abode ofsilence.

18 If I should say, “My foot has slipped,”

Your lovingkindness, O Lord, will hold me up.

19 When my anxious thoughts multiply within me,

Your consolations delight my soul.

20 Can a throne of destruction be allied with You,

One which devises mischief by decree?

21 They band themselves together against the life of the righteous

And condemn the innocent to death.

22 But the Lordhas been my stronghold,

And my God the rock of my refuge.

23 He has brought back their wickedness upon them

And will destroy them in their evil;

The Lordour God will destroy them.

Psalms 95

Praise to the Lord, and Warning against Unbelief.

1 O come, let us sing for joy to the Lord,

Let us shout joyfully to the rock of our salvation.

2 Let us come before His presence with thanksgiving,

Let us shout joyfully to Him with psalms.

3 For the Lordis a great God

And a great King above all gods,

4 In whose hand are the depths of the earth,

The peaks of the mountains are His also.

5 The sea is His, for it was He who made it,

And His hands formed the dry land.

6 Come, let us worship and bow down,

Let us kneel before the Lordour Maker.

7 For He is our God,

And we are the people of His pasture and the sheep of His hand.

Today, if you would hear His voice,

8 Do not harden your hearts, as atMeribah,

As in the day ofMassah in the wilderness,

9 “When your fathers tested Me,

They tried Me, though they had seen My work.

10 For forty years I loathedthatgeneration,

And said they are a people who err in their heart,

And they do not know My ways.

11 Therefore I swore in My anger,

Truly they shall not enter into My rest.”

Let the manyislands be glad.

Righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.

3 Fire goes before Him

And burns up His adversaries round about.

At the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.

And all the peoples have seen His glory.

Who boast themselves of idols;

And the daughters of Judah have rejoiced

Because of Your judgments, O Lord.

Who preserves the souls of His godly ones;

He delivers them from the hand of the wicked.

And gladness for the upright in heart.

12 Be glad in the Lord, you righteous ones,

And give thanks to His holy name.

Psalms 101

The Psalmist’s Profession of Uprightness.

1 I will sing of lovingkindness and justice,

To You, O Lord, I will sing praises.

2 I will give heed to theblameless way.

When will You come to me?

I will walk within my house in the integrity of my heart.

3 I will set no worthless thing before my eyes;

I hate the work of those who fall away;

It shall not fasten its grip on me.

4 A perverse heart shall depart from me;

I will know no evil.

5 Whoever secretly slanders his neighbor, him I will destroy;

No one who has a haughty look and an arrogant heart will I endure.

6 My eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me;

He who walks in ablameless way is the one who will minister to me.

7 He who practices deceit shall not dwell within my house;

He who speaks falsehood shall not maintain his position before me.

8 Every morning I willdestroy all the wicked of the land,

So as to cut off from the city of the Lordall those who do iniquity.

Psalms 102

Prayer of an Afflicted Man for Mercy on Himself and on Zion.

1 Hear my prayer, O Lord!

And let my cry for help come to You.

2 Do not hide Your face from me in the day of my distress;

Incline Your ear to me;

In the day when I call answer me quickly.

3 For my days have been consumed in smoke,

And my bones have been scorched like a hearth.

4 My heart has been smitten like grass and has withered away,

Indeed, I forget to eat my bread.

5 Because of the loudness of my groaning

My bones cling to my flesh.

6 I resemble a pelican of the wilderness;

I have become like an owl of the waste places.

7 I lie awake,

I have become like a lonely bird on a housetop.

8 My enemies have reproached me all day long;

Those who deride me have used mynameas a curse.

9 For I have eaten ashes like bread

And mingled my drink with weeping

10 Because of Your indignation and Your wrath,

For You have lifted me up and cast me away.

11 My days are like a lengthened shadow,

And I wither away like grass.

12 But You, O Lord, abide forever,

And Your name to all generations.

13 You will ariseandhave compassion on Zion;

For it is time to be gracious to her,

For the appointed time has come.

14 Surely Your servants find pleasure in her stones

And feel pity for her dust.

15 So the nations will fear the name of the Lord

And all the kings of the earth Your glory.

16 For the Lordhas built up Zion;

He has appeared in His glory.

17 He has regarded the prayer of the destitute

And has not despised their prayer.

18 This will be written for the generation to come,

That a people yet to be created may praise the Lord.

19 For He looked down from His holy height;

From heaven the Lordgazed upon the earth,

20 To hear the groaning of the prisoner,

To set free those who were doomed to death,

21 Thatmenmay tell of the name of the Lordin Zion

And His praise in Jerusalem,

22 When the peoples are gathered together,

And the kingdoms, to serve the Lord.

23 He has weakened my strength in the way;

He has shortened my days.

24 I say, “O my God, do not take me away in the midst of my days,

Your years are throughout all generations.

25 Of old You founded the earth,

And the heavens are the work of Your hands.

26 Even they will perish, but You endure;

And all of them will wear out like a garment;

Like clothing You will change them and they will be changed.

27 But You are the same,

And Your years will not come to an end.

28 The children of Your servants will continue,

And their descendants will be established before You.”
