12 May - Psalm 65-67 And Psalm 69-70

Jude Fri Dec 28, 2018 7:39 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 65

1To You, stillness, praise, in Tsiyon, O Elohim; And to You a vow is paid.

2To You who hears all prayer, all flesh comes.

3Crooked matters were mightier than I; As for our transgressions, You do cover them.

4Blessed is the one You choose, And bring near to dwell in Your courts. We are satisfied with the goodness of Your house, Your set-apart Hĕḵal.

5By awesome deeds in righteousness You answer us, O Elohim of our deliverance, The Trust of all the ends of the earth, And the distant seas;

6Who established the mountains by His strength, Being girded with might;

7Who stills the roaring of the seas, The roaring of their waves, And the uproar of the peoples.

8And they who dwell in the farthest parts, Are afraid of Your signs; You make the outgoings of the morning and evening rejoice.

9You have visited the earth and watered it, You greatly enrich it; The river of Elohim is filled with water; You provide their grain, For so You have prepared it.

10Its ridges have been filled, Its furrows have been deepened, You make it soft with showers, You bless its growth.

11You have crowned the year with Your goodness, And Your paths drip with fatness.

12The pastures of the wilderness drip, And the hills are girded with rejoicing.

13The meadows are dressed in flocks, And valleys are covered with grain; They shout for joy and sing.

PSALM 66

1Shout with joy to Elohim, All the earth!

2Sing out the splendour of His Name; Make His praise esteemed.

3Say to Elohim, “How awesome are Your works! Through the greatness of Your power Your enemies pretend obedience to You.

4“All the earth bow to You, They sing praises to You, They praise Your Name.” Selah.

5Come and see the works of Elohim, Awesome acts toward the sons of men.

6He has turned the sea into dry land, They went through the river on foot. There we rejoiced in Him,

7Who rules by His power forever; His eyes keeping watch on the gentiles; Let the rebellious not exalt themselves. Selah.

8Bless our Elohim, you peoples! And sound His praise abroad,

9Who keeps us in life, And does not allow our feet to be moved.

10For You, O Elohim, have proved us; You have refined us as silver is refined.

11You brought us into the net; You laid affliction on our loins.

12You have let men ride at our head; We went through fire and through water; But You brought us out to plenty.

13I enter Your house with burnt offerings; I complete my vows to You,

14That which my lips have uttered And my mouth spoke in my distress.

15Burnt offerings of fatlings I offer to You, With the incense of rams; I offer bulls with goats. Selah.

16Come, hear, all you who fear Elohim, And I relate what He has done for my being.

17I called to Him with my mouth, And praise was in my tongue.

18If I have seen wickedness in my heart, יהוה would not hear.

19Truly, Elohim has heard me; He has given heed to the voice of my prayer.

20Blessed be Elohim, Who has not turned away my prayer, Nor His kindness from me!

PSALM 67

1Elohim does favour us and bless us, Cause His face to shine upon us. Selah.

2For Your way to be known on earth, Your deliverance among all nations.

3Let the peoples praise You, O Elohim, Let all the peoples praise You.

4Let the nations be glad and sing for joy! For You judge the peoples uprightly, And lead the nations on earth. Selah.

5Let the peoples praise You, O Elohim; Let all the peoples praise You.

6The earth shall give her increase; Elohim, our own Elohim, blesses us!

7Elohim blesses us! And all the ends of the earth fear Him!

PSALM 69

1Save me, O Elohim! For waters have come up to my neck.

2I have sunk in deep mud, And there is no place to stand; I have come into deep waters, And the floods overflow me.

3I am worn out from my crying; My throat is dry; My eyes grow dim As I wait for my Elohim.

4Those who hate me without a cause Are more than the hairs of my head; They are mighty who would destroy me, My lying enemies; What I did not steal, I restored.

5O Elohim, You Yourself know my foolishness; And my guilt has not been hidden from You.

6Let not those who wait for You, O Master יהוה of hosts, Be ashamed because of me; Let not those who seek You Be humbled because of me, O Elohim of Yisra’ĕl.

7Because I have borne reproach for Your sake; Shame has covered my face.

8I have become a stranger to my brothers, And a foreigner to my mother’s children;

9Because ardour for Your house has eaten me up, And the reproaches of those who reproach You have fallen on me.

10And I wept in my being with fasting, And it became my reproach.

11And when I put on sackcloth, I became a proverb to them.

12They who sit in the gate talk about me, And I am the song of the drunkards.

13But as for me, my prayer is to You, O יהוה, At an acceptable time, O Elohim. In the greatness of Your kindness, Answer me in the truth of Your deliverance.

14Rescue me out of the mire, And let me not sink. Let me be rescued from those who hate me, And out of the deep waters.

15Let not a flood of waters overflow me, Nor let the deep swallow me up, Nor let the pit shut its mouth on me.

16Answer me, O יהוה, for Your kindness is good. According to the greatness of Your compassion, turn to me.

17And do not hide Your face from Your servant, For I am in distress; Answer me speedily.

18Draw near to my being, redeem it; Ransom me because of my enemies.

19You Yourself know my reproach, And my shame and my confusion; My adversaries are all before You.

20Reproach has broken my heart and I am sick; I looked for sympathy, but there was none; And for comforters, but I found none.

21And they gave me gall for my food, And for my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.

22Let their table before them become a snare, And a trap to those at ease.

23Let their eyes be darkened, so as not to see; And make their loins shake continually.

24Pour out Your wrath upon them, And let Your burning displeasure overtake them.

25Let their encampments be deserted; Let no one dwell in their tents.

26For they persecute him whom You have smitten, And talk about the pain of those You have wounded.

27Add crookedness to their crookedness, And let them not enter into Your righteousness.

28Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, And not be written with the righteous.

29But I am poor and in pain; Let Your deliverance, O Elohim, set me up on high.

30I praise the Name of Elohim with a song, And I make Him great with thanksgiving.

31And this pleases יהוה more than an ox, A bull with horns and hooves.

32The humble shall see, they rejoice, You who seek Elohim, and your hearts live.

33For יהוה hears the poor, And He shall not despise His captives.

34Let the heavens and earth praise Him, The seas and all that moves in them.

35For Elohim shall save Tsiyon And build the cities of Yehuḏah. And they shall dwell there and possess it,

36And the seed of His servants inherit it, And those who love His Name dwell in it.

PSALM 70

1O Elohim, deliver me! Hasten to my help, O יהוה!

2Let those who seek my life Be ashamed and abashed, Let those who are desiring my evil Be turned back and humiliated.

3Let those who say, “Aha, aha!” Be turned back because of their shame.

4Let all those who seek You Rejoice and be glad in You; And let those who love Your deliverance always say, “Let Elohim be made great!”

5But I am poor and needy; Hasten to me, O Elohim! You are my help and my deliverer; O יהוה, do not delay.
