Psalm 101 - A Psalm of David
I will sing of mercy and judgment:
unto thee, O Lord, will I sing.
I will behave myself
wisely in a perfect way.
O when wilt thou come unto me?
I will walk within my
house with a perfect heart.
I will set no wicked thing before mine
eyes: I hate the work of them that
turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.
A froward heart shall depart from
me: I will not know a wicked person.
Whoso slandereth his neighbour, him will
I cut off: him that hath an high look
and a proud heart will not I suffer.
Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful
of the land, that they may dwell
with me: he that walketh in a
perfect way, he shall serve me.
He that worketh deceit shall not
dwell within my house: he that telleth
lies shall not tarry in my sight.
I will early destroy all the wicked
of the land; that I may cut off all
wicked doers from the city of the Lord.
Psalm 102
- A Prayer of the afflicted, when
he is overwhelmed, and poureth
out his complaint before the LORD.
Hear my prayer, O Lord, and
let my cry come unto thee.
Hide not thy face from me in the
day when I am in trouble; incline
thine ear unto me: in the day
when I call answer me speedily.
For my days are consumed like smoke,
and my bones are burned as an hearth.
My heart is smitten, and withered like
grass; so that I forget to eat my bread.
By reason of the voice of my
groaning my bones cleave to my skin.
I am like a pelican of the wilderness:
I am like an owl of the desert.
I watch, and am as a sparrow
alone upon the house top.
Mine enemies reproach me all
the day; and they that are mad
against me are sworn against me.
For I have eaten ashes like bread,
and mingled my drink with weeping.
Because of thine indignation
and thy wrath: for thou hast
lifted me up, and cast me down.
My days are like a shadow that
declineth; and I am withered like grass.
But thou, O Lord, shall endure for ever;
and thy remembrance unto all generations.
Thou shalt arise, and have mercy
upon Zion: for the time to favour
her, yea, the set time, is come.
For thy servants take pleasure in her
stones, and favour the dust thereof.
So the heathen shall fear the
name of the Lord, and all the
kings of the earth thy glory.
When the Lord shall build up Zion,
he shall appear in his glory.
He will regard the prayer of the
destitute, and not despise their prayer.
This shall be written for the generation
to come: and the people which shall
be created shall praise the Lord.
For he hath looked down from the
height of his sanctuary; from heaven
did the Lord behold the earth;
To hear the groaning of the prisoner; to
loose those that are appointed to death;
To declare the name of the Lord in
Zion, and his praise in Jerusalem;
When the people are gathered together,
and the kingdoms, to serve the Lord.
He weakened my strength in
the way; he shortened my days.
I said, O my God, take me not away
in the midst of my days: thy years
are throughout all generations.
Of old hast thou laid the
foundation of the earth: and the
heavens are the work of thy hands.
They shall perish, but thou shalt endure:
yea, all of them shall wax old like
a garment; as a vesture shalt thou
change them, and they shall be changed:
But thou art the same, and
thy years shall have no end.
The children of thy servants
shall continue, and their seed
shall be established before thee.
Psalm 103
Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all
that is within me, bless his holy name.
Bless the Lord, O my soul, and
forget not all his benefits:
Who forgiveth all thine iniquities;
who healeth all thy diseases;
Who redeemeth thy life from
destruction; who crowneth thee with
lovingkindness and tender mercies;
Who satisfieth thy mouth with
good things; so that thy youth
is renewed like the eagle's.
The Lord executeth righteousness and
judgment for all that are oppressed.
He made known his ways unto Moses,
his acts unto the children of Israel.
The Lord is merciful and gracious,
slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.
He will not always chide: neither
will he keep his anger for ever.
He hath not dealt with us
after our sins; nor rewarded
us according to our iniquities.
For as the heaven is high above
the earth, so great is his
mercy toward them that fear him.
As far as the east is from the
west, so far hath he removed
our transgressions from us.
Like as a father pitieth his children,
so the Lord pitieth them that fear him.
remembereth that we are dust.
As for man, his days are as grass: as a
flower of the field, so he flourisheth.
For the wind passeth over it,
and it is gone; and the place
thereof shall know it no more.
But the mercy of the Lord is
from everlasting to everlasting
upon them that fear him, and his
righteousness unto children's children;
To such as keep his covenant, and to those
that remember his commandments to do them.
The Lord hath prepared his throne in the
heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all.
Bless the Lord, ye his angels, that excel
in strength, that do his commandments,
hearkening unto the voice of his word.
Bless ye the Lord, all ye his hosts; ye
ministers of his, that do his pleasure.
Bless the Lord, all his works
in all places of his dominion:
bless the Lord, O my soul.
Psalm 104
Bless the Lord, O my soul.
O Lord my God, thou art very great; thou
art clothed with honour and majesty.
Who coverest thyself with light
as with a garment: who stretchest
out the heavens like a curtain:
Who layeth the beams of his chambers
in the waters: who maketh the
clouds his chariot: who walketh
upon the wings of the wind:
Who maketh his angels spirits;
his ministers a flaming fire:
Who laid the foundations of the earth,
that it should not be removed for ever.
coveredst it with the deep
as with a garment: the waters
stood above the mountains.
At thy rebuke they fled; at the voice
of thy thunder they hasted away.
They go up by the mountains; they go
down by the valleys unto the place
which thou hast founded for them.
Thou hast set a bound that they
may not pass over; that they turn
not again to cover the earth.
He sendeth the springs into
the valleys, the hills.
They give drink to every beast of the
field: the wild asses quench their thirst.
By them shall the fowls of the
heaven have their habitation,
which sing among the branches.
He watereth the hills from his
chambers: the earth is satisfied
with the fruit of thy works.
He causeth the grass to grow
for the cattle, and herb for the
service of man: that he may bring
forth food out of the earth;
And wine that maketh glad the heart of
man, and oil to make his face to shine,
and bread which strengtheneth man's heart.
The trees of the Lord are full of sap; the
cedars of Lebanon, which he hath planted;
Where the birds make their nests: as for
the stork, the fir trees are her house.
The high hills are a refuge for the wild
goats; and the rocks for the conies.
He appointed the moon for seasons:
the sun knoweth his going down.
Thou makest darkness, and it is
night: wherein all the beasts
of the forest do creep forth.
The young lions roar after their
prey, and seek their meat from God.
The sun ariseth, they gather themselves
together, and lay them down in their dens.
Man goeth forth unto his work and
to his labour until the evening.
O Lord, how manifold are thy works!
in wisdom hast thou made them all:
the earth is full of thy riches.
So is this great and wide sea, wherein
are things creeping innumerable,
both small and great beasts.
There go the ships: there is that
leviathan, whom thou hast
made to play therein.
These wait all upon thee; that thou
mayest give them their meat in due season.
That thou givest them they
gather: thou openest thine
hand, they are filled with good.
Thou hidest thy face, they are
troubled: thou takest away their breath,
they die, and return to their dust.
Thou sendest forth thy spirit,
they are created: and thou
renewest the face of the earth.
The glory of the Lord shall endure for
ever: the Lord shall rejoice in his works.
He looketh on the earth, and it trembleth:
he toucheth the hills, and they smoke.
I will sing unto the Lord as long
as I live: I will sing praise
to my God while I have my being.
My meditation of him shall be
sweet: I will be glad in the Lord.
Let the sinners be consumed out of the
earth, and let the wicked be no more.
Bless thou the Lord, O my soul.
Praise ye the Lord.
Psalm 1 0 5.
O give thanks unto the Lord;
call upon his name: make known
his deeds among the people.
Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him:
talk ye of all his wondrous works.
Glory ye in his holy name:
let the heart of them
rejoice that seek the Lord.
Seek the Lord, and his strength:
seek his face evermore.
Remember his marvellous works
that he hath done; his wonders,
and the judgments of his mouth;
O ye seed of Abraham his servant,
ye children of Jacob his chosen.
He is the Lord our God:
remembered his covenant for
ever, the word which he commanded
to a thousand generations.
Which covenant he made with
Abraham, and his oath unto Isaac;
And confirmed the same unto
Jacob for a law, and to Israel
for an everlasting covenant:
Saying, Unto thee will I give the land
of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance:
they were but a few men in number;
yea, very few, and strangers in it.
When they went from one nation to another,
from one kingdom to another people;
He suffered no man to do them wrong:
yea, he reproved kings for their sakes;
Saying, Touch not mine anointed,
and do my prophets no harm.
Moreover he called for a famine upon the
land: he brake the whole staff of bread.
He sent a man before them, even
Joseph, who was sold for a servant:
Whose feet they hurt with
fetters: he was laid in iron:
Until the time that his word came:
the word of the Lord tried him.
The king sent and loosed him; even the
ruler of the people, and let him go free.
He made him lord of his house,
and ruler of all his substance:
To bind his princes at his pleasure;
and teach his senators wisdom.
Israel also came into Egypt; and
Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.
And he increased his people greatly; and
made them stronger than their enemies.
He turned their heart to hate his people,
to deal subtilly with his servants.
He sent Moses his servant;
and Aaron whom he had chosen.
They shewed his signs among them,
and wonders in the land of Ham.
He sent darkness, and made it dark;
and they rebelled not against his word.
He turned their waters into
blood, and slew their fish.
Their land brought forth frogs in
abundance, in the chambers of their kings.
He spake, and there came divers sorts
of flies, and lice in all their coasts.
He gave them hail for rain,
and flaming fire in their land.
He smote their vines also and
their fig trees; and brake
the trees of their coasts.
He spake, and the locusts came, and
caterpillers, and that without number,
And did eat up all the herbs
in their land, and devoured
the fruit of their ground.
He smote also all the firstborn in their
land, the chief of all their strength.
He brought them forth also with
silver and gold: and there was not
one feeble person among their tribes.
Egypt was glad when they departed:
for the fear of them fell upon them.
He spread a cloud for a covering;
and fire to give light in the night.
The people asked, and he
brought quails, and satisfied
them with the bread of heaven.
He opened the rock, and the
waters gushed out; they ran in
the dry places like a river.
For he remembered his holy
promise, and Abraham his servant.
And he brought forth his people with
joy, and his chosen with gladness:
And gave them the lands of the
heathen: and they inherited
the labour of the people;
That they might observe his
statutes, and keep his laws.
Praise ye the Lord.
