Psalm On Demand - Psalm 71

Psalm 71

71:1 In you, Yahweh, I take refuge. Never let me be disappointed.
71:2 Deliver me in your righteousness, and rescue me. Turn your ear to me, and save me.
71:3 Be to me a rock of refuge to which I may always go. Give the command to save me, for you are my rock and my fortress.
71:4 Rescue me, my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.

~

71:5 For you are my hope, Lord Yahweh; my confidence from my youth.
71:6 I have relied on you from the womb. You are he who took me out of my mother’s womb. I will always praise you.
71:7 I am a marvel to many, but you are my strong refuge.
71:8 My mouth shall be filled with your praise, with your honor all the day.

~

71:9 Don’t reject me in my old age. Don’t forsake me when my strength fails.
71:10 For my enemies talk about me. Those who watch for my soul conspire together,
71:11 saying, “God has forsaken him. Pursue and take him, for no one will rescue him.”

71:12 God, don’t be far from me. My God, hurry to help me.

~

71:13 Let my accusers be disappointed and consumed. Let them be covered with disgrace and scorn who want to harm me.
71:14 But I will always hope, and will add to all of your praise.
71:15 My mouth will tell about your righteousness, and of your salvation all day, though I don’t know its full measure.
71:16 I will come with the mighty acts of the Lord Yahweh. I will make mention of your righteousness, even of yours alone.

~

71:17 God, you have taught me from my youth. Until now, I have declared your wondrous works.
71:18 Yes, even when I am old and gray-haired, God, don’t forsake me, until I have declared your strength to the next generation, your might to everyone who is to come.
71:19 Your righteousness also, God, reaches to the heavens; you have done great things. God, who is like you?
71:20 You, who have shown us many and bitter troubles, you will let me live. You will bring us up again from the depths of the earth.

~

71:21 Increase my honor, and comfort me again.
71:22 I will also praise you with the harp for your faithfulness, my God. I sing praises to you with the lyre, Holy One of Israel.
71:23 My lips shall shout for joy! My soul, which you have redeemed, sings praises to you!
71:24 My tongue will also talk about your righteousness all day long, for they are disappointed, and they are confounded, who want to harm me.

Psalm On Demand - Psalm 60

Psalm 60

For the Chief Musician. To the tune of “The Lily of the Covenant.”

A teaching poem by David, when he fought with Aram Naharaim and with Aram Zobah, and Joab returned, and killed twelve thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt.

60:1 God, you have rejected us. You have broken us down.

You have been angry. Restore us, again.

60:2 You have made the land tremble.

You have torn it. Mend its fractures, for it quakes.

60:3 You have shown your people hard things.

You have made us drink the wine that makes us stagger.

60:4 You have given a banner to those who fear you,

that it may be displayed because of the truth.

Selah.

60:5 So that your beloved may be delivered, save with your right hand, and answer us.

60:6 God has spoken from his sanctuary:

“I will triumph. I will divide Shechem, and measure out the valley of Succoth.

60:7 Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine.

Ephraim also is the defense of my head. Judah is my scepter.

60:8 Moab is my wash basin. I will throw my shoe on Edom.

I shout in triumph over Philistia.”

60:9 Who will bring me into the strong city?

Who has led me to Edom?

60:10 Haven’t you, God, rejected us?

You don’t go out with our armies, God.

60:11 Give us help against the adversary,

for the help of man is vain.

60:12 Through God we shall do valiantly,

for it is he who will tread down our adversaries.

Psalm On Demand - Psalm 48

Psalm 48

A Song. A Psalm by the sons of Korah.

48:1 Great is Yahweh, and greatly to be praised, in the city of our God, in his holy mountain.
48:2 Beautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole earth, is Mount Zion, on the north sides, the city of the great King.
48:3 God has shown himself in her citadels as a refuge.
48:4 For, behold, the kings assembled themselves, they passed by together.
48:5 They saw it, then they were amazed. They were dismayed. They hurried away.
48:6 Trembling took hold of them there, pain, as of a woman in travail.
48:7 With the east wind, you break the ships of Tarshish.
48:8 As we have heard, so we have seen, in the city of Yahweh of Armies, in the city of our God. God will establish it forever.
48:9 We have thought about your loving kindness, God, in the midst of your temple.
48:10 As is your name, God, so is your praise to the ends of the earth. Your right hand is full of righteousness.
48:11 Let Mount Zion be glad! Let the daughters of Judah rejoice, Because of your judgments.
48:12 Walk about Zion, and go around her. Number its towers.
48:13 Mark well her bulwarks. Consider her palaces, that you may tell it to the next generation.
48:14 For this God is our God forever and ever. He will be our guide even to death.

Psalm On Demand - Psalm 81

Psalm 81

For the choir director:

A psalm of Asaph, to be accompanied by a stringed instrument.

¹ Sing praises to God, our strength. Sing to the God of Jacob.
² Sing! Beat the tambourine. Play the sweet lyre and the harp.
³ Blow the ram's horn at new moon, and again at full moon to call a festival!
⁴ For this is required by the decrees of Israel; it is a regulation of the God of Jacob.
⁵ He made it a law for Israel when he attacked Egypt to set us free. I heard an unknown voice say,
⁶ "Now I will take the load from your shoulders; I will free your hands from their heavy tasks.
⁷ You cried to me in trouble, and I saved you; I answered out of the thundercloud and tested your faith when there was no water at Meribah.

Interlude

⁸ "Listen to me, O my people, while I give you stern warnings. O Israel, if you would only listen to me!
⁹ You must never have a foreign god; you must not bow down before a false god.
¹⁰ For it was I, the Lord your God, who rescued you from the land of Egypt. Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it with good things.
¹¹ "But no, my people wouldn't listen. Israel did not want me around.
¹² So I let them follow their own stubborn desires, living according to their own ideas.
¹³ Oh, that my people would listen to me! Oh, that Israel would follow me, walking in my paths!
¹⁴ How quickly I would then subdue their enemies! How soon my hands would be upon their foes!
¹⁵ Those who hate the Lord would cringe before him; they would be doomed forever.
¹⁶ But I would feed you with the finest wheat. I would satisfy you with wild honey from the rock."

Psalm On Demand - Psalm 105

Psalm 105

¹ Give thanks to the LORD, call on his name;

make known among the nations what he has done.

² Sing to him, sing praise to him;

tell of all his wonderful acts.

³ Glory in his holy name;

let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice.

⁴ Look to the LORD and his strength;

seek his face always.

 

⁵ Remember the wonders he has done,

his miracles, and the judgments he pronounced,

⁶ O descendants of Abraham his servant,

O sons of Jacob, his chosen ones.

⁷ He is the LORD our God;

his judgments are in all the earth.

⁸ He remembers his covenant forever,

the word he commanded, for a thousand generations,

⁹ the covenant he made with Abraham,

the oath he swore to Isaac.

 

¹⁰ He confirmed it to Jacob as a decree,

to Israel as an everlasting covenant:

¹¹ "To you I will give the land of Canaan

as the portion you will inherit."

¹² When they were but few in number,

few indeed, and strangers in it,

¹³ they wandered from nation to nation,

from one kingdom to another.

 

¹⁴ He allowed no one to oppress them;

for their sake he rebuked kings:

¹⁵ "Do not touch my anointed ones;

do my prophets no harm."

¹⁶ He called down famine on the land

and destroyed all their supplies of food;

¹⁷ and he sent a man before them-

Joseph, sold as a slave.

 

¹⁸ They bruised his feet with shackles,

his neck was put in irons,

¹⁹ till what he foretold came to pass,

till the word of the LORD proved him true.

²⁰ The king sent and released him,

the ruler of peoples set him free.

²¹ He made him master of his household,

ruler over all he possessed,

²² to instruct his princes as he pleased

and teach his elders wisdom.

 

²³ Then Israel entered Egypt;

Jacob lived as an alien in the land of Ham.

²⁴ The LORD made his people very fruitful;

he made them too numerous for their foes,

²⁵ whose hearts he turned to hate his people,

to conspire against his servants.

 

²⁶ He sent Moses his servant,

and Aaron, whom he had chosen.

²⁷ They performed his miraculous signs among them,

his wonders in the land of Ham.

²⁸ He sent darkness and made the land dark-

for had they not rebelled against his words?

 

²⁹ He turned their waters into blood,

causing their fish to die.

³⁰ Their land teemed with frogs,

which went up into the bedrooms of their rulers.

³¹ He spoke, and there came swarms of flies,

and gnats throughout their country.

³² He turned their rain into hail,

with lightning throughout their land;

³³ he struck down their vines and fig trees

and shattered the trees of their country.

³⁴ He spoke, and the locusts came,

grasshoppers without number;

³⁵ they ate up every green thing in their land,

ate up the produce of their soil.

 

³⁶ Then he struck down all the firstborn in their land,

the firstfruits of all their manhood.

³⁷ He brought out Israel, laden with silver and gold,

and from among their tribes no one faltered.

³⁸ Egypt was glad when they left,

because dread of Israel had fallen on them.

³⁹ He spread out a cloud as a covering,

and a fire to give light at night.

 

⁴⁰ They asked, and he brought them quail

and satisfied them with the bread of heaven.

⁴¹ He opened the rock, and water gushed out;

like a river it flowed in the desert.

⁴² For he remembered his holy promise

given to his servant Abraham.

⁴³ He brought out his people with rejoicing,

his chosen ones with shouts of joy;

⁴⁴ he gave them the lands of the nations,

and they fell heir to what others had toiled for-

⁴⁵ that they might keep his precepts

and observe his laws.

Praise the LORD.

Psalm On Demand - Psalm 144

Psalm 144

 

(As read by Anne)

144:1 Blessed be Yahweh, my rock, who teaches my hands to war, and my fingers to battle:

144:2 my loving kindness, my fortress, my high tower, my deliverer, my shield,

and he in whom I take refuge; who subdues my people under me.

144:3 Yahweh, what is man, that you care for him?

Or the son of man, that you think of him?

144:4 Man is like a breath. His days are like a shadow that passes away.

144:5 Part your heavens, Yahweh, and come down.

Touch the mountains, and they will smoke.

144:6 Throw out lightning, and scatter them.

Send out your arrows, and rout them.

144:7 Stretch out your hand from above, rescue me,

and deliver me out of great waters, out of the hands of foreigners;

144:8 whose mouths speak deceit,

Whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.

144:9 I will sing a new song to you, God.

On a ten-stringed lyre, I will sing praises to you.

144:10 You are he who gives salvation to kings,

who rescues David, his servant, from the deadly sword.

144:11 Rescue me, and deliver me out of the hands of foreigners,

whose mouths speak deceit, whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.

144:12 Then our sons will be like well-nurtured plants,

our daughters like pillars carved to adorn a palace.

144:13 Our barns are full, filled with all kinds of provision.

Our sheep bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our fields.

144:14 Our oxen will pull heavy loads.

There is no breaking in, and no going away, and no outcry in our streets.

144:15 Happy are the people who are in such a situation.

Happy are the people whose God is Yahweh.

Psalm On Demand - Psalm 53

Psalm 53

(as read by Jenny)

For the Chief Musician. To the tune of “Mahalath.” A contemplation by David.

53:1 The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” T

hey are corrupt, and have done abominable iniquity.

There is no one who does good.

53:2 God looks down from heaven on the children of men,

to see if there are any who understood, who seek after God.

53:3 Every one of them has gone back.

They have become filthy together.

There is no one who does good, no, not one.

53:4 Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge,

who eat up my people as they eat bread, and don’t call on God?

53:5 There they were in great fear, where no fear was,

for God has scattered the bones of him who encamps against you.

You have put them to shame, because God has rejected them.

53:6 Oh that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion! When God brings back his people from captivity, then Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.

Psalm 76

For the Chief Musician. On stringed instruments. A Psalm by Asaph. A song.

76:1 In Judah, God is known. His name is great in Israel.

76:2 His tabernacle is also in Salem; His dwelling place in Zion.

76:3 There he broke the flaming arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and the weapons of war.

Selah.

76:4 Glorious are you, and excellent, more than mountains of game.

76:5 Valiant men lie plundered, they have slept their last sleep. None of the men of war can lift their hands.

76:6 At your rebuke, God of Jacob, both chariot and horse are cast into a deep sleep.

76:7 You, even you, are to be feared. Who can stand in your sight when you are angry?

76:8 You pronounced judgment from heaven. The earth feared, and was silent,

76:9 when God arose to judgment, to save all the afflicted ones of the earth.

Selah.

76:10 Surely the wrath of man praises you. The survivors of your wrath are restrained.

76:11 Make vows to Yahweh your God, and fulfill them! Let all of his neighbors bring presents to him who is to be feared.

76:12 He will cut off the spirit of princes. He is feared by the kings of the earth.

Psalm On Demand - Psalm 115

Psalm 115

¹ Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name goes all the glory for your unfailing love and faithfulness.

² Why let the nations say, "Where is their God?"

³ Our God is in the heavens, and he does as he wishes.

⁴ Their idols are merely things of silver and gold, shaped by human hands.

⁵ They have mouths but cannot speak, and eyes but cannot see.

⁶ They have ears but cannot hear, and noses but cannot smell.

⁷ They have hands but cannot feel, and feet but cannot walk, and throats but cannot make a sound.

⁸ And those who make idols are just like them, as are all who trust in them.

⁹ O Israel, trust the Lord! He is your helper and your shield.

¹⁰ O priests, descendants of Aaron, trust the Lord! He is your helper and your shield.

¹¹ All you who fear the Lord, trust the Lord! He is your helper and your shield.

¹² The Lord remembers us and will bless us. He will bless the people of Israel and bless the priests, the descendants of Aaron.

¹³ He will bless those who fear the Lord, both great and lowly.

¹⁴ May the Lord richly bless both you and your children.

¹⁵ May you be blessed by the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

¹⁶ The heavens belong to the Lord, but he has given the earth to all humanity.

¹⁷ The dead cannot sing praises to the Lord, for they have gone into the silence of the grave.

¹⁸ But we can praise the Lord both now and forever!

Praise the Lord!
