Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity, for Jehovah has heard the voice of my weeping. Jehovah has heard my supplication. Jehovah accepts my prayer. #Psalms 6:8-9, NHEBJE Shared using #AndBible: #Bible Study. ()
Answer me when I call, God of my righteousness. Give me relief from my distress. Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer. You sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into dishonor? Will you love vanity, and seek after falsehood? Selah. But know that Jehovah has set apart for himself him who is godly: Jehovah will hear when I call to him. When agitated, do not sin. Search your own heart on your bed, and be still. Selah. Offer the sacrifices of righteousness. Put your trust in Jehovah. Many say, "Who will show us any good?" Jehovah, let the light of your face shine on us. You have put gladness in my heart, more than when their grain and their new wine are increased. In peace I will both lay myself down and sleep, for you, Jehovah alone, make me live in safety. #Psalms 4, NHEBJE Shared using #AndBible: #Bible Study. ()
I will tell of the decree. Jehovah said to me, "You are my son. Today I have become your father. Ask of me, and I will give the nations for your inheritance, the uttermost parts of the earth for your possession. You shall rule them with a rod of iron. You shall dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel." Now therefore be wise, you kings. Be instructed, you judges of the earth. Serve Jehovah with fear, and rejoice with trembling. Kiss the son, lest he be angry, and you perish in the way, for his wrath will soon be kindled. Blessed are all those who take refuge in him. #Psalms 2:7-12, NHEBJE Shared using #AndBible: #Bible Study. ()
Blessed is the man who doesn't walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand in the way of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers; but his delight is in Jehovah's Law. On his Law he meditates day and night. He will be like a tree planted by the streams of water, that brings forth its fruit in its season, whose leaf also does not wither. Whatever he does shall prosper. #Psalms 1:1-3, NHEBJE Shared using #AndBible: #Bible Study. ()
Praise Yah! Praise God in his sanctuary! Praise him in his heavens for his acts of power! Praise him for his mighty acts! Praise him according to his excellent greatness! Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet! Praise him with harp and lyre! Praise him with tambourine and dancing! Praise him with stringed instruments and flute! Praise him with loud cymbals! Praise him with resounding cymbals! Let everything that has breath praise Yah! Praise Yah! #Psalms 150, NHEBJE Shared using #AndBible: #Bible Study. ()
Praise Yah! Sing to Jehovah a new song, his praise in the assembly of the holy ones. Let Israel rejoice in him who made them. Let the children of Zion be joyful in their King. Let them praise his name in the dance! Let them sing praises to him with tambourine and harp! For Jehovah takes pleasure in his people. He crowns the humble with salvation. Let the holy ones rejoice in honor. Let them sing for joy on their beds. May the high praises of God be in their mouths, and a two-edged sword in their hand; To execute vengeance on the nations, and punishments on the peoples; To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron; to execute on them the written judgment. All his holy ones have this honor. Praise Yah! #Psalms 149, NHEBJE Shared using #AndBible: #Bible Study. ()
Praise Yah! Praise Jehovah from the heavens! Praise him in the heights! Praise him, all his angels! Praise him, all his army! Praise him, sun and moon! Praise him, all you shining stars! Praise him, you heavens of heavens, You waters that are above the heavens. Let them praise the name of Jehovah, For he commanded, and they were created. He has also established them forever and ever. He has made a decree which will not pass away. Praise Jehovah from the earth, you great sea creatures, and all depths! Lightning and hail, snow and clouds; stormy wind, fulfilling his word; mountains and all hills; fruit trees and all cedars; wild animals and all livestock; small creatures and flying birds; kings of the earth and all peoples; princes and all judges of the earth; both young men and maidens; old men and children: let them praise the name of Jehovah, for his name alone is exalted. His glory is above the earth and the heavens. He has lifted up the horn of his people, the praise of all his holy ones; even of the children of Israel, a people near to him. Praise Yah! #Psalms 148, NHEBJE Shared using #AndBible: #Bible Study. ()
Praise Yah, for it is good to sing praises to our God; for it is pleasant and fitting to praise him. Jehovah builds up Jerusalem. He gathers together the outcasts of Israel. He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds. He counts the number of the stars. He calls them all by their names. Great is our Lord, and mighty in power. His understanding is infinite. Jehovah upholds the humble. He brings the wicked down to the ground. Sing to Jehovah with thanksgiving. Sing praises on the harp to our God, who covers the sky with clouds, who prepares rain for the earth, who makes grass grow on the mountains. He provides food for the livestock, and for the young ravens when they call. He doesn't delight in the strength of the horse. He takes no pleasure in the legs of a man. Jehovah takes pleasure in those who fear him, in those who hope in his loving kindness. Praise Jehovah, Jerusalem! Praise your God, Zion! For he has strengthened the bars of your gates. He has blessed your children within you. He makes peace in your borders. He fills you with the finest of the wheat. He sends out his commandment to the earth. His word runs very swiftly. He gives snow like wool, and scatters frost like ashes. He hurls down his hail like pebbles. Who can stand before his cold? He sends out his word, and melts them. He causes his wind to blow, and the waters flow. He shows his word to Jacob; his statutes and his ordinances to Israel. He has not done this for just any nation. They do not know his ordinances. Praise Yah! #Psalms 147, NHEBJE Shared using #AndBible: #Bible Study. ()
Jehovah, I have called on you. Come to me quickly! Listen to my voice when I call to you. Let my prayer be set before you like incense; the lifting up of my hands like the evening sacrifice. Set a watch, Jehovah, before my mouth. Keep the door of my lips. Do not incline my heart to any evil thing, to practice deeds of wickedness with men who work iniquity. Do not let me eat of their delicacies. Let the righteous strike me, it is kindness; let him reprove me, it is like oil on the head; do not let my head refuse it; Yet my prayer is always against evil deeds. Their judges are thrown down by the sides of the rock. They will hear my words, for they are well spoken. "As when one plows and breaks up the earth, our bones are scattered at the mouth of Sheol." For my eyes are on you, Jehovah, the Lord. In you, I take refuge. Do not leave my soul destitute. Keep me from the snare which they have laid for me, from the traps of the workers of iniquity. Let the wicked fall together into their own nets, while I pass by. #Psalms 141, NHEBJE Shared using #AndBible: #Bible Study. ()
