Psalm 6

1  O LORD, do not rebuke me in your anger
or discipline me in your warath.

2  Be merciful to me, LORD, for I am faint;
O LORD, heal me, for my bones are in agony.

3  My soul is in anguish.
How long, O LORD, how long?

4  Turn, O LORD, and deliver me;
save me because of your unfailing love.

5  No one remembers you when he is dead.
Who praises you from the grave?

6  I am worn out from groaning;
all night long I flood my bed with weeping
and drench my couch with tears.

7  My eyes grow weak with sorrow;
they fail because of  all my foes.

8  Away from me, all you who do evil,
for the LORD has heard my weeping.

9  The LORD has heard my cry for mercy;
the LORD accepts my prayer.

10  All my enemies will be ashamed and dismayed
They will turn back in sudden disgrace.

Psalm 5

1  Give ear to my words, O LORD,
consider my sighing.

2  Listen to my cry for help,
my King and my God,
for to you I pray.

3  In the morning, O LORD, you hear my voice;
in the morning I lay my requests before you
and wait in expectation.

4  You are not a God who takes pleasure in evil:
with you the wicked cannot dwell.

5  The arrogant cannot stand in your presence;
you hate all who do wrong.

6  You destroy those who tell lies;
bloodthirsty and deceitful men
the LORD abhors.

7 But I, by your great mercy,
will come into your house;
in reverence will I bow down
toward your holy temple.

8 Lead me, O LORD, in your righteousness
because of my enemies–
make straight your way before me.

9  Not a word from their mouth can be trusted
their heart is filled with destruction.
Their throat is an open grave;
with their tongue they speak deceit.

10  Declare them guilty, O God!
Let their intrigues be their downfall.
Banish them for their many sins,
for they have rebelled against you.

11 But let all who take refuge in you be glad:
let them ever sing for joy.
Spread your protection over them,
that those who love your name may rejoice in you.
For surely, O LORD, you bless the righteous;
you surround them with your favor as a shield.

 

Psalm 4
1  Answer me when I call to you,
O my righteous God.
Give me relief from my distress,
be merciful to me and hear my prayer.

2  How long, O men, will you turn my
glory into shame?
How long will you love delusions
and seek false gods?

3  Know that the Lord has set apart the
godly for himself;
the Lord will hear  when I call to him.

4  In your anger do not sin;
when you are on your beds,
search your hearts and be silent.

5  Offer right sacrifices
and trust in the Lord.

6  Many are asking, “Who can show us any good?”
Let the light of your face shine upon us, O Lord.

7  You have filled my heart with
greater joy than when their grain
and new wine abound.

8  I will lie down and sleep in peace,
for you alone, O Lord,
make me dwell in safety.

Psalm 3

1 Oh Lord, how many are my foes!
How many rise up against me!

2  Many are saying of me,
“God will not deliver him.”

3  But you are a shield around me, O Lord;
you bestow glory on me and lift up my head.

4  To the Lord I cry aloud,
and he answers me from his holy hill.

5  I lie down and sleep;
I wake again, because the Lord sustains me.

6  I will not fear the tens of thousands
drawn up against me on every side.

7  Arise, O Lord!
Deliver me, O my God!
Strike all my eemies on the jaw;
break the teeth of the wicked.

8  From the Lord comes deliverance.
May your blessing be on your people.

 

Psalm 2

¹  Why do the nations conspire
and the peoples plot in vain?

²  The kings of the earth rise up
and the rulers band together
against the LORD and against his anointed, saying,

³  “Let us break their chains
and throw off their shackles.”

⁴  The One enthroned in heaven laughs;
the Lord scoffs at them.

⁵ He rebukes them in his anger
and terrifies them in his wrath, saying,

⁶ “I have installed my king
on Zion, my holy mountain.”

⁷ I will proclaim the LORD’s decree:
He said to me, “You are my son;
today I have become your father.

⁸ Ask me,
and I will make the nations your inheritance,
the ends of the earth your possession.

⁹ You will break them with a rod of iron;
you will dash them to pieces like pottery.”

¹⁰ Therefore, you kings, be wise;
be warned, you rulers of the earth.

¹¹ Serve the LORD with fear
and celebrate his rule with trembling.

¹² Kiss his son, or he will be angry
and your way will lead to your destruction,
for his wrath can flare up in a moment.
Blessed are all who take refuge in him.

Psalm 1

¹ Blessed is the one
who does not walk in step with the wicked
or stand in the way that sinners take
or sit in the company of mockers,

²  but whose delight is in the law of the LORD,
and who meditates on his law day and night.

³  That person is like a tree planted by streams of water,
which yields its fruit in season
and whose leaf does not wither—
whatever they do prospers.

⁴  Not so the wicked!
They are like chaff
that the wind blows away.

⁵  Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.

⁶  For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous,
but the way of the wicked leads to destruction.
