10 May - Psalm 50, 53, 60 and Psalm 75

Jude Fri Dec 28, 2018 7:33 pm

My soul doth magnify my YAH, and my spirit hath rejoiced in EL my Saviour; For HE that is mighty hath done to me great things; and Holy is HIS Name. Now unto HIM who is ever present in my helpless estate; who is able to keep me from falling and to present me faultless before the presence of His Glory with exceeding joy, unto the King Eternal, Immortal, Invisible, the only wise EL our Saviour be honour and glory and majesty, dominion and power both now and for ever Halleluyah!

PSALM 50

1Ěl Elohim יהוה shall speak, And He shall call the earth From the rising of the sun to its going down.

2From Tsiyon, the perfection of loveliness, Elohim shall shine forth.

3Our Elohim comes, and is not silent – A fire consumes before Him, And it shall be very stormy all around Him.

4He calls to the heavens from above, And to the earth, to rightly rule His people:

5“Gather My kind ones together to Me, Those who have made a covenant with Me by slaughtering.”

6Then the heavens declared His righteousness, For Elohim Himself is Judge. Selah.

7“Hear, O My people, and I speak, O Yisra’ĕl, and I witness against you: I am Elohim, your Elohim!

8“I do not reprove you for your slaughterings, And your burnt offerings are continually before Me.

9“I do not take a bull from your house, Nor goats out of your pens.

10“For every beast of the forest is Mine, The cattle on a thousand hills.

11“I know all the birds of the mountains, And all moving in My field are Mine.

12“If I were hungry, I would not speak to you; For the world is Mine, and all that fills it.

13“Do I eat the flesh of bulls, Or drink the blood of goats?

14“Offer thanksgiving to Elohim, And pay your vows to the Most High.

15“And call upon Me in the day of distress – Let Me rescue you, and you esteem Me.”

16But to the wrong Elohim said, “What right have you to recite My laws, Or take My covenant in your mouth,

17“While you hated instruction And cast My Words behind you?

18“When you saw a thief, you were pleased with him, And you take part with adulterers.

19“You let your mouth loose to evil, And your tongue frames deceit.

20“You sit, speak against your brother; You slander your own mother’s son.

21“You have done this, and I kept silent; You have thought that I was altogether like you – I rebuke you, and set it in order before your eyes.

22“Understand this please, you who forget Eloah, Lest I tear you in pieces, With no one to deliver:

23“Whoever offers praise esteems Me; And to him who prepares a way, I show the deliverance of Elohim.”

PSALM 53

1The fool has said in his heart, “There is no Elohim.” They have done corruptly, And they have done abominable unrighteousness; No one does good.

2Elohim looked down from the heavens on the children of men, To see if there is a wise one, seeking Elohim.

3They have all turned aside; They have together become filthy; No one is doing good, not even one.

4Have the workers of wickedness no knowledge, Who eat up my people as they eat bread, And do not call on Elohim?

5There they are in great fear, Where no fear was, For Elohim shall scatter the bones Of him who encamps against you. You shall put them to shame, For Elohim has rejected them.

6O that the deliverance of Yisra’ĕl Would be given out of Tsiyon! When Elohim turns back the captivity of His people, Let Ya‛aqoḇ rejoice, let Yisra’ĕl be glad.

PSALM 60

1O Elohim, You have rejected us; You have broken us; You have been displeased; Turn back to us!

2You have made the earth tremble; You have broken it; Heal its breaches, for it is shaken.

3You have let Your people see hardship; You have made us drink the wine of trembling.

4You have given a banner to those who fear You, That it might be lifted up Because of the truth. Selah.

5That those You love might be rescued, Save with Your right hand and answer me.

6Elohim has spoken in His set-apartness, “I exult, I portion out Sheḵem And measure out the Valley of Sukkoth.

7“Gil‛aḏ is Mine and Menashsheh is Mine, And Ephrayim is the defence of My head, Yehuḏah is My lawgiver.

8“Mo’aḇ is My wash-pot, Over Eḏom I cast My shoe, Shout loud, O Philistia, because of Me.”

9Who would bring me to the strong city? Who shall lead me to Eḏom?

10Have not You, O Elohim, rejected us? And You do not go out, O Elohim, With our armies!

11Give us help from distress, For the help of man is naught.

12In Elohim we do mightily, And He treads down our adversaries!

PSALM 75

1We shall give thanks to You, O Elohim, we shall give thanks! And Your Name is near! Your wonders shall be declared!

2“When I seize the appointed time, It is I who judge in uprightness.

3“The earth and all its inhabitants are melted; It is I who set its columns firm. Selah.

4“I said to the boasters, ‘Do not boast,’ And to the wrong, ‘Do not lift up the horn.

5“Do not lift up your horn on high (You speak with a stiff neck).’ ”

6For exaltations are neither from the east, Nor from the west nor from the wilderness.

7But Elohim is the Judge – He puts down one, And exalts another.

8For a cup is in the hand of יהוה, And the wine shall foam; It is filled with a mixture, And He pours it out. All the wrong of the earth drink, Draining it to the dregs.

9But I, I declare forever, I sing praises to the Elohim of Ya‛aqoḇ.

10“And all the horns of the wrong I cut off; The horns of the righteous are lifted up.”
