Henry: Welcome To Immerse: The
Daily Bible Reading Experience.
Day three hundred and fifteen.
Psalm 142.
A Psalm of David regarding
his experience in the cave.
A prayer I cry out to the Lord.
I plead for the Lord's mercy.
I pour out my complaints before
him and tell him all my troubles.
When I am overwhelmed, you alone know
the way I should turn wherever I go.
My enemies have set traps for me.
I look for someone to come and help me,
but no one gives me a passing thought.
No one will help me.
No one cares a bit.
What happens to me then?
I pray to you, oh Lord, I say,
You are my place of refuge.
You are all I really want in life.
Hear my cry for I am very low.
Rescue me from my prosecutors
for they are too strong for me.
Bring me out of prison so I can.
Thank you.
The godly will crowd around
me for you are good to me.
Psalm 143 a Psalm of David.
Hear my prayer.
Oh Lord, listen to my plea.
Answer me because you are
faithful and righteous.
Don't put your servant on trial
for no one is innocent before you.
My enemy has chased me.
He has knocked me to the ground
and forces me to live in darkness.
Like those in the grave.
I am losing all hope.
I am paralyzed with fear.
I remember the days of old.
I ponder all your great works and
think about what you have done.
I lift my hands to you in prayer.
I thirst for you as parched
land thirsts for rain interlude.
Come quickly, Lord, and answer
me for my depression deepens.
Don't turn away from me or I will die.
Let me hear of your unfailing love
each morning for I am trusting you.
Show me where to walk,
where I give myself to.
You.
Rescue me from my enemies.
Lord, I run to you to hide me, teach
me to do your will for you are my God.
May your gracious spirit lead
me forward on affirmed footing
for the glory of your name.
Oh Lord, preserve my life
because of your faithfulness.
Bring me out of this distress.
In your unfailing love, silence all
my enemies and destroy all my foes.
For I am your servant.
Psalm 144, A Psalm of David.
Praise the Lord who is my rock.
He trains my hands for war and
gives my fingers skill for battle.
He is my loving ally and my fortress,
my tower of safety, my rescuer, he is
my shield and I take refuge in him.
He makes the nations submit
to me, oh Lord, what are human
beings that you should notice?
Them mere mortals that you
should think about them for?
They are like a breath of air.
Their days are like a passing shadow.
Open the heavens Lord, and come down
touch the mountains so they billow smoke.
Hurl your lightning bolts
and scatter your enemies.
Shoot your arrows and confuse them.
Reach down from heaven and rescue me.
Rescue me from deep waters,
from the power of my enemies.
Their mouths are full of lies.
They swear to tell the
truth, but they lie instead.
I will sing a new song to you.
Oh God.
I will sing your praises with
a 10 stringed harp for you.
Grant victory to kings.
You rescued your servant
David from the fatal sword.
Save me.
Rescue me from the power of my enemies.
Their mouths are full of lies.
They swear to tell the
truth, but they lie instead.
May our sons flourish in their
youth, like well nurtured plants.
May our daughters be like graceful
pillars carved to beautify a palace.
May our barns be filled
with crops of every kind.
May the flocks in our fields multiply by
the thousands, even tens of thousands, and
may our oxen be loaded down with produce.
May there be no enemy
breaking through our walls.
No going into captivity.
No cries of alarm in our town squares,
yes, joyful are those who live like this.
Joyful indeed are those
whose God is the Lord.
Psalm 145 a Psalm of praise of David.
I will exalt you, my God in king, and
praise your name forever and ever.
I will praise you every day.
Yes, I will praise you forever.
Great is the Lord.
He is most worthy of praise.
No one can measure his greatness.

children of your mighty acts.

splendor and your wonderful miracles.
Your all inspiring deeds
will be on every tongue.

glory of your kingdom.

For your kingdom is an
everlasting kingdom.

those bent beneath their loads.
The eyes of all look to you in hope.

When you open your hand, you satisfy the
hunger and thirst of every living thing.
The Lord is righteous
in everything he does.
He is filled with kindness.
The Lord is close to all who call on him,

a help and rescues them.

everyone on earth bless his
holy name forever and ever.
Psalm 146, praise the Lord.
Let all that I am.
Praise the Lord.
I will praise the Lord.
As long as I live, I will sing praises
to my God with my dying breath.
Don't put your confidence
in powerful people.
There is no help for you there.
When they breathe their last,
they return to the earth and
all their plans die with them.
But joyful are those who have the
God of Israel as their helper,
whose hope is in the Lord their God.
He made heaven and earth the
sea and everything in them.
He keeps every promise forever.
He gives justice to the
oppressed and food to the hungry.
The Lord frees the prisoners.
The Lord opens the eyes of the blind.
The Lord lifts up those
who are weighed down.
The Lord loves the Godly.

He will be your God o Jerusalem
throughout the generations.

Lord is rebuilding Jerusalem and

His understanding is beyond comprehension.

brings the wicked down into the dust.

of a horse or in human might.
No.
The Lord's delight is
in those who fear him.
Those who put their hope in
his unfailing love Glorify.
The Lord owe Jerusalem Praise your
God, owes Zion for he has strengthened
the bars of your gates and blessed
your children within your walls.

nation and satisfies your hunger.
With the finest wheat, he sends his orders
to the world how swiftly his word flies.
He sends the snow like white wool.
He scatters frost upon
the ground like ashes.
He hurls the hail like stones, who
can stand against his freezing cold.
Then at his command, it all melts.

his decrees and regulations to Israel.
He has not done this for any other nation.
They do not know his regulations.
Praise the Lord.
