21, Psalm 83 ~ 85

Psalm 83

1 Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.
2 For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.
3 They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones.
4 They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.
5 For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee:
6 The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;
7 Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;
8 Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. Selah.
9 Do unto them as unto the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:
10 Which perished at Endor: they became as dung for the earth.
11 Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:
12 Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.
13 O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.
14 As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;
15 So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.
16 Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O Lord. 4 I
17 Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish: 4 I
18 That men may know that thou, whose name alone is Jehovah, art the most high over all the earth. 4 I

 

Psalm 84

1 How amiable are thy tabernacles, O Lord of hosts! 36 I
2 My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of the Lord: my heart and my flesh crieth out for the living God. 10 I
3 Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O Lord of hosts, my King, and my God. 4 I
4 Blessed are they that dwell in thy house: they will be still praising thee. Selah. 16 I
5 Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee; in whose heart are the ways of them. 11 I
6 Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well; the rain also filleth the pools.
7 They go from strength to strength, every one of them in Zion appeareth before God.
8 O Lord God of hosts, hear my prayer: give ear, O God of Jacob. Selah. 2 I
9 Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of thine anointed.
10 For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness. 6 I
11 For the Lord God is a sun and shield: the Lord will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. 7 I
12 O Lord of hosts, blessed is the man that trusteth in thee. 15 I

 

Psalm 85

1 Lord, thou hast been favourable unto thy land: thou hast brought back the captivity of Jacob. 4 I
2 Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people, thou hast covered all their sin. Selah. 8 I
3 Thou hast taken away all thy wrath: thou hast turned thyself from the fierceness of thine anger.
4 Turn us, O God of our salvation, and cause thine anger toward us to cease. 4 I
5 Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? wilt thou draw out thine anger to all generations?
6 Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee? 4 I
7 Shew us thy mercy, O Lord, and grant us thy salvation. 8 I
8 I will hear what God the Lord will speak: for he will speak peace unto his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn again to folly.
9 Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him; that glory may dwell in our land. 27 I
10 Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other. 15 I
11 Truth shall spring out of the earth; and righteousness shall look down from heaven. 33 I
12 Yea, the Lord shall give that which is good; and our land shall yield her increase. 10 I
13 Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set us in the way of his steps. 6 I
