Day three hundred and eight.
Psalm 98, A Psalm sing a new song to the
Lord for he has done wonderful deeds.
His right hand has won a mighty victory.
His holy arm has shown his saving power.
The Lord has announced his
victory and has revealed his
righteousness to every nation.
He has remembered his promise to
love and be faithful to Israel.
The ends of the earth have
seen the victory of our God.
Shout to the Lord all the earth.
Break out in praise and sing for joy.
Sing your praise to
the Lord with the harp.
With the harp and melodious song, with
trumpets and the sound of the rams horn.
Make a joyful symphony
before the Lord the king.
Let the sea and everything in it.
Shout his praise, let the earth
and all living things join in.
Let the rivers clap their hands in glee.
Let the hills sing out their
songs of joy before the Lord.
For he is coming to judge the earth.
He will judge the world with justice
and the nations with fairness.
Psalm 99, the Lord is king.
Let the nations tremble.
He sits on his throne
between the cherubim.
Let the whole earth quake.
The Lord sits in majesty in Jerusalem,
exalted above all the nations.
Let them praise your
great and awesome name.
Your name is holy, mighty
King, lover of justice.
You have established fairness.
You have acted with justice and
righteousness throughout Israel.
Exalt the Lord our God bow low
before his feet, for he is holy.
Moses and Aaron were among his priests.
Samuel also called on his name.
They cried to the Lord for
help and he answered them.
He spoke to Israel from the pillar of
Cloud, and they followed the laws and
decrees He gave them, oh Lord our God.
You answered them.
You were a forgiving God to them, but
you punished them when they went wrong.
Exalt the Lord our God, and worship
at his holy mountain in Jerusalem.
For the Lord, our God is holy.
Psalm 100, a Psalm of Thanksgiving.
Shout with joy to the Lord all the earth.
Worship the Lord with gladness.
Come before him, singing with joy.
Acknowledge that the Lord is God.
He made us and we are his.
We are His people.
The sheep of his pasture Enter
his gates with thanksgiving.
Go into his courts with praise.
Give thanks to him and praise his name.
For the Lord is good.
His unfailing love continues
forever and his faithfulness
continues to each generation.
Psalm 101 a Psalm of David, I
will sing of your love and justice
Lord, I will praise you with songs.
I will be careful to
live a blameless life.
When will you come to help me?
I will lead a life of
integrity in my own home.
I will refuse to look at
anything vile and vulgar.
I hate all who deal Crookedly.
I will have nothing to do with them.
I will reject perverse ideas
and stay away from every evil.
I will not tolerate people
who slander their neighbors.
I will not endure conceit and pride.
I will search for faithful
people to be my companions.
Only those who are above reproach
will be allowed to serve me.
I will not allow deceivers
to serve in my house.
Liars will not stay in my presence.
My daily task will be to ferret
out the wicked and free the city
of the Lord from their grip.
Psalm 102, a prayer of one
overwhelmed with trouble pouring
out problems before the Lord.
Lord, hear my prayer.
Listen to my plea.
Don't turn away from me
in my time of distress.
Bend down to listen and answer
me quickly when I call to you.
For my days disappear like smoke and
my bones burn like red hot coals.
My heart is sick, withered like
grass, and I have lost my appetite.
Because of my groaning, I am
reduced to skin and bones.
I am like an owl in the desert, like
a little owl in a far off wilderness.
I lie awake, lonely.
As a solitary bird on the roof,
my enemies taunt me day after
day, they mock and curse me.
I eat ashes for food.
My tears run down into my drink.
Because of your anger and wrath for you
have picked me up and thrown me out.
My life passes as swiftly
as the evening shadows.
I am withering away like grass.
But you oh Lord, will sit
on your throne forever.
Your fame will endure to every generation.
You will arise and have
mercy on Jerusalem, and now
is the time to pity her.
Now is the time you promised
to help for your people.
Love every stone in her walls and
cherish even the dust in her streets.
Then the nations will
tremble before the Lord.
The kings of the Earth will
tremble before his glory.
For the Lord will rebuild Jerusalem.
He will appear in his glory.
He will listen to the
prayers of the destitute.
He will not reject their pleas.
Let this be recorded for future
generations so that a people not
yet born will praise the Lord.
Tell them the Lord looked down
from his heavenly sanctuary.
He looked down to earth from heaven
to hear the groans of the prisoners
to release those condemned to die.
And so the Lord's fame will be celebrated
in Zion, his praises in Jerusalem
when multitudes gather together and
kingdoms come to worship the Lord.
He broke my strength in
midlife cutting short my days.
But I cried to him, oh my
God, who lives forever.
Don't take my life while I am so young.
Long ago, you laid the foundation
of the earth and made the
heavens with your hands.
They will perish, but you remain forever.
They will wear out like old clothing.
You will change them like
a garment and discard them.
But you are always the same.
You will live forever.
The children of your people
will live in security.
Their children's children
will thrive in your presence.
Psalm 103, A Psalm of David.
Let all that I am.
Praise the Lord with my whole heart.
I will praise his holy name.
Let all that I am.
Praise the Lord.
May I never forget the
good things he does for me.
He forgives all my sins
and heals all my diseases.
He redeems me from death and crowns
me with love and tender mercies.
He fills my life with good things.
My youth is renewed like the eagles.
The Lord gives righteousness and
justice to all who are treated unfairly.
He revealed his character to Moses
and his deeds to the people of Israel.
The Lord is compassionate and
merciful, slow to get angry
and filled with unfailing love.
He will not constantly accuse
us, nor remain forever.
He does not punish us for all our sins.
He does not deal harshly with us
as we deserve for his unfailing
love toward those who fear him.
Is as great as the height of
the heavens above the earth.
He has removed our sins as far from
us as the east is from the west.
The Lord is like a father to his
children, tender and compassionate.
To those who fear him.
For he knows how weak we are.
He remembers we are only dust.
Our days on Earth are like
grass, like wildflowers.
We bloom and die.
The wind blows and we are gone
as though we had never been here.
But the love of the Lord remains
forever with those who fear him.
His salvation extends to the
children's children of those who
are faithful to his covenant, of
those who obey his commandments.
The Lord has made the heavens his throne.
From there, he rules over everything.
Praise the Lord, you angels.
You mighty ones who carry out his plans
listening for each of his commands.
Yes.
Praise the Lord you armies of angels
who serve him and do his will.
Praise the Lord.
Everything he has created
everything and all his kingdom.
Let all that I am.
Praise the Lord.
Psalm 104.
Let all that I am.
Praise the Lord.
Oh Lord, my God, how great you are.
You are robed with honor and majesty.
You are dressed in a robe of light.
You stretch out the starry
curtain of the heavens.
You lay out the rafters of your home.
In the rain clouds, you make
the clouds, your chariot, you
ride upon the wings of the wind.
The winds are your messengers.
Flames of fire are your servants.
You place the world on its foundation
so it would never be moved.
You clothed the earth with floods
of water, water that covered even
the mountains at your command.
The water fled at the sound of
your thunder and hurried away
mountains rose and valleys
sank to the levels you decreed.
Then you set a firm boundary for the seas
so they would never again cover the earth.
You make springs pour
water into the ravines.
So streams gush down from the mountains,
they provide water for all the animals,
and the wild donkeys quench their thirst.
The birds nest beside the streams and
sing among the branches of the trees.
You send rain on the mountains from
your heavenly home, and you fill the
earth with the fruit of your labor.
You cause grass to grow for the livestock
and plants for people to use you.
Allow them to produce food from the earth.
Wine to make them glad.
Olive oil to soothe their skin
and bread to give them strength.
The trees of the Lord are well cared for.
The cedars of Lebanon that he planted
there, the birds make their nests and the
storks make their homes in the cypresses.
High and the mountains live the
wild goats and the rocks form
a refuge for the high Rees.
You made the moon to mark the seasons
and the sun knows when to set.
You send the darkness and it
becomes night when all the
forest animals prow all about.
Then the young lions roar for their
prey, stalking the food provided by God.
At dawn, they slink back
into their dens to rest.
Then people go off to their work
where they labor until evening.
Oh, lord, what a variety of
things you have made in wisdom.
You have made them all.
The earth is full of your creatures.
Here is the ocean.
Vast and wide teeming with life of
every kind, both large and small.
See the ships sailing along and Leviathan,
which you made to play in the sea.
They all depend on you to give
them food as they need it.
When you supply it, they gather it.
You open your hand to feed them,
and they are richly satisfied.
But if you turn away
from them, they panic.
When you take away their breath,
they die and turn again to dust.
When you give them your
breath, life is created and you
renew the face of the earth.
May the glory of the
Lord continue forever.
The Lord takes pleasure in all.
He has made the earth
trembles at his glance.
The mountains smoke at his touch.
I will sing to the Lord.
As long as I live, I will.
Praise my God to my last breath.
May all my thoughts be pleasing to him.
For I rejoice in the Lord.
Let all sinners vanish
from the face of the earth.
Let the wicked disappear forever.
Let all that I am.
Praise the Lord.
Praise the Lord.
