2, Psalm 22 ~ 24

Psalm 22

1 My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring? 4 I
2 O my God, I cry in the day time, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent. 4 I
3 But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel. 18 I
4 Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them. 5 I
5 They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded. 4 I
6 But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.
7 All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying,
8 He trusted on the Lord that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.
9 But thou art he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me hope when I was upon my mother’s breasts. 4 I
10 I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother’s belly. 6 I
11 Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help. 6 I
12 Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.
13 They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion.
14 I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.
15 My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.
16 For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet. 6 I
17 I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me. 6 I
18 They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture. 8 I
19 But be not thou far from me, O Lord: O my strength, haste thee to help me. 8 I
20 Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog.
21 Save me from the lion’s mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns. 2 I
22 I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee. 16 I
23 Ye that fear the Lord, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel. 6 I
24 For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard. 2 I
25 My praise shall be of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.
26 The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the Lord that seek him: your heart shall live for ever. 8 I
27 All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the Lord: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee. 2 I
28 For the kingdom is the Lord’s: and he is the governor among the nations. 9 I
29 All they that be fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul.
30 A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation.
31 They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done this.

 

Psalm 23

1 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. 87 I
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. 52 I
3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. 51 I
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. 49 I
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. 30 I
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever. 105 I

 

Psalm 24

1 The earth is the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. 20 I
2 For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods. 8 I
3 Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? or who shall stand in his holy place? 37 I
4 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. 16 I
5 He shall receive the blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of his salvation. 8 I
6 This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. Selah. 4 I
7 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in. 24 I
8 Who is this King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle. 18 I
9 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in. 4 I
10 Who is this King of glory? The Lord of hosts, he is the King of glory. Selah. 16 I
