NOVEMBER 7



PSALMS: 7, 37, 67, 97, 127


PROVERBS: 7


OLD TESTAMENT: EXODUS 4:1 - 5:22


NEW TESTAMENT: MATTHEW 18:1 - 20



PSALMS: 7


1 LORD, my God, I take refuge in you.

Save me from all those who pursue me, and deliver me, 

2 Lest they tear apart my soul like a lion,

Rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver. 

3 LORD, my God, if I have done this,

If there is iniquity in my hands, 

4 If I have rewarded evil to him who was at shalom with me

(Yes, I have delivered him who without cause was my adversary), 

5 Let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it;

Yes, let him tread my life down to the eretz,

And lay my glory in the dust. Selah. 

6 Arise, LORD, in your anger.

Lift up yourself against the rage of my adversaries.

Awake for me. You have commanded judgment. 

7 Let the congregation of the peoples surround you.

Rule over them on high. 

8 The LORD administers judgment to the peoples.

Judge me, LORD, according to my righteousness,

And to my integrity that is in me. 

9 Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end,

But establish the righteous;

Their minds and hearts are searched by the righteous God. 

10 My shield is with God,

Who saves the upright in heart. 

11 God is a righteous judge,

Yes, a God who has indignation every day. 

12 If a man doesn't relent, he will sharpen his sword;

He has bent and strung his bow. 

13 He has also prepared for himself the instruments of death.

He makes ready his flaming arrows. 

14 Behold, he travails with iniquity;

Yes, he has conceived mischief and brought forth falsehood. 

15 He has dug a hole,

And has fallen into the pit which he made. 

16 The trouble he causes shall return to his own head.

His violence shall come down on the crown of his own head. 

17 I will give thanks to the LORD according to his righteousness,

And will sing praise to the name of the LORD Elyon.



PSALMS: 37


1 Don't fret because of evil-doers,

Neither be envious against those who work unrighteousness. 

2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass,

And wither like the green herb. 

3 Trust in the LORD, and do good.

Dwell in the land, and enjoy safe pasture. 

4 Also delight yourself in the LORD,

And he will give you the desires of your heart. 

5 Commit your way to the LORD.

Trust also in him, and he will do this: 

6 He will make your righteousness go forth as the light,

And your justice as the noon day sun. 

7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him.

Don't fret because of him who prospers in his way,

Because of the man who makes wicked plots happen. 

8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath.

Don't fret, it leads only to evildoing. 

9 For evildoers shall be cut off,

But those who wait for the LORD shall inherit the land. 

10 For yet a little while, and the wicked will be no more.

Yes, though you look for his place, he isn't there. 

11 But the humble shall inherit the land,

And shall delight themselves in the abundance of shalom. 

12 The wicked plots against the just,

And gnashes at him with his teeth. 

13 The Lord will laugh at him,

For he sees that his day is coming. 

14 The wicked have drawn out the sword,

and have bent their bow,

To cast down the poor and needy,

To kill those who are upright in the way. 

15 Their sword shall enter into their own heart.

Their bows shall be broken. 

16 Better is a little that the righteous has,

Than the abundance of many wicked. 

17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken,

But the LORD upholds the righteous. 

18 The LORD knows the days of the perfect.

Their inheritance shall be forever. 

19 They shall not be put to shame in the time of evil.

In the days of famine they shall be satisfied. 

20 But the wicked shall perish.

The enemies of the LORD shall be like the beauty of the fields.

They will vanish -- Vanish like smoke. 

21 The wicked borrow, and don't pay back,

But the righteous give generously.

22 For such as are blessed by him shall inherit the land.

Those who are cursed by him shall be cut off. 

23 A man's goings are established by the LORD.

He delights in his way. 

24 Though he stumble, he shall not fall,

For the LORD holds him up with his hand.

25 I have been young, and now am old,

Yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken,

Nor his children begging for bread. 

26 All day long he deals graciously, and lends.

His seed is blessed. 

27 Depart from evil, and do good;

Live securely forever. 

28 For the LORD loves justice,

And doesn't forsake his holy ones.

They are preserved forever,

But the children of the wicked shall be cut off. 

29 The righteous shall inherit the land,

And live in it forever. 

30 The mouth of the righteous talks of wisdom.

His tongue speaks justice. 

31 The law of his God is in his heart.

None of his steps shall slide. 

32 The wicked watches the righteous,

And seeks to kill him. 

33 The LORD will not leave him in his hand,

Nor condemn him when he is judged.

34 Wait for the LORD, and keep his way,

And he will exalt you to inherit the land.

When the wicked are cut off, you shall see it. 

35 I have seen the wicked in great power,

Spreading himself like a green tree in its native soil. 

36 But he passed away, and, behold, he was not.

Yes, I sought him, but he could not be found. 

37 Mark the perfect man, and see the upright,

For there is a future for the man of shalom. 

38 As for transgressors, they shall be destroyed together.

The future of the wicked shall be cut off. 

39 But the salvation of the righteous is from the LORD.

He is their stronghold in the time of trouble. 

40 The LORD helps them, and rescues them.

He rescues them from the wicked, and saves them,

Because they have taken refuge in him.



PSALMS: 67


1 May God be merciful to us, bless us,

And cause his face to shine on us. Selah. 

2 That your way may be known on eretz,

And your yeshu`ah among all nations, 

3 Let the peoples praise you, God.

Let all the peoples praise you. 

4 Oh let the nations be glad and sing for joy,

For you will judge the peoples with equity,

And govern the nations on eretz.

Selah. 

5 Let the peoples praise you, God.

Let all the peoples praise you. 

6 The eretz has yielded its increase.

God, even our own God, will bless us. 

7 God will bless us.

All the ends of the eretz shall fear him.



PSALMS: 97


1 The LORD reigns!

Let the eretz rejoice.

Let the multitude of islands be glad. 

2 Clouds and darkness are around him.

Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne. 

3 A fire goes before him,

And burns up his adversaries on every side. 

4 His lightning lights up the world;

The eretz sees, and trembles. 

5 The mountains melt like wax at the presence of the LORD,

At the presence of the Lord of the whole eretz. 

6 The heavens declare his righteousness.

All the peoples have seen his glory. 

7 Let all them be put to shame who serve engraved images,

Who boast in their idols.

Worship him, all you gods! 

8 Tziyon heard and was glad.

The daughters of Yehudah rejoiced,

Because of your judgments, LORD.

9 For you, LORD, are most high above all the eretz.

You are exalted far above all gods. 

10 You who love the LORD, hate evil.

He preserves the souls of his holy ones.

He delivers them out of the hand of the wicked. 

11 Light is sown for the righteous,

And gladness for the upright in heart. 

12 Be glad in the LORD, you righteous people!

Give thanks to his holy Name.



PSALMS: 127


1 Unless the LORD builds the house,

They labor in vain who build it.

Unless the LORD watches over the city,

The watchman guards it in vain. 

2 It is vain for you to rise up early,

To stay up late, Eating the bread of toil;

For he gives sleep to his loved ones. 

3 Behold, children are a heritage of the LORD.

The fruit of the womb is his reward. 

4 As arrows in the hand of a mighty man,

So are the children of youth. 

5 Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them.

They won't be put to shame when they speak with their enemies in the gate.



PROVERBS: 7


1 My son, keep my words.

Lay up my mitzvot within you. 

2 Keep my mitzvot and live;

Guard my teaching as the apple of your eye. 

3 Bind them on your fingers.

Write them on the tablet of your heart. 

4 Tell wisdom, "You are my sister."

Call understanding your relative, 

5 That they may keep you from the strange woman,

From the foreigner who flatters with her words. 

6 For at the window of my house,

I looked forth through my lattice. 

7 I saw among the simple ones.

I discerned among the youths a young man void of understanding, 

8Passing through the street near her corner,

He went the way to her house, 

9 In the twilight, in the evening of the day,

In the middle of the night and in the darkness. 

10 Behold, there a woman met him with the attire of a prostitute,

And with crafty intent. 

11 She is loud and defiant.

Her feet don't stay in her house. 

12 Now she is in the streets, now in the squares,

And lurking at every corner. 

13 So she caught him, and kissed him.

With an impudent face she said to him:

14 "Sacrifices of peace-offerings are with me.

This day I have paid my vows. 

15 Therefore I came out to meet you,

To diligently seek your face, And I have found you. 

16 I have spread my couch with carpets of tapestry,

With striped cloths of the yarn of Mitzrayim. 

17 I have perfumed my bed with myrrh,

aloes, and cinnamon. 

18 Come, let's take our fill of loving until the morning.

Let's solace ourselves with loving. 

19 For my husband isn't at home.

He has gone on a long journey. 

20 He has taken a bag of money with him.

He will come home at the full moon." 

21 With persuasive words, she led him astray.

With the flattering of her lips, she seduced him. 

22 He followed her immediately,

As an ox goes to the slaughter,

As a fool stepping into a noose. 

23 Until an arrow strikes through his liver,

As a bird hurries to the snare,

And doesn't know that it will cost his life.

24 Now therefore, sons, listen to me.

Pay attention to the words of my mouth. 

25 Don't let your heart turn to her ways.

Don't go astray in her paths, 

26 For she has thrown down many wounded.

Yes, all her slain are a mighty host. 

27 Her house is the way to She'ol,

Going down to the chambers of death.



OLD TESTAMENT: EXODUS 4:1 - 5:22


4:1 Moshe answered, "But, behold, they will not believe me, nor listen to my voice; for they will say, 'The LORD has not appeared to you.'" 2 The LORD said to him, "What is that in your hand?" He said, "A rod." 3 He said, "Throw it on the ground." He threw it on the ground, and it became a snake; and Moshe ran away from it. 4 The LORD said to Moshe, "Put forth your hand, and take it by the tail." He put forth his hand, and laid hold of it, and it became a rod in his hand. 5 "That they may believe that the LORD, the God of their fathers, the God of Avraham, the God of Yitzchak, and the God of Ya`akov, has appeared to you." 6 The LORD said furthermore to him, "Now put your hand inside your cloak." He put his hand inside his cloak, and when he took it out, behold, his hand was leprous, as white as snow. 7 He said, "Put your hand inside your cloak again." He put his hand inside his cloak again, and when he took it out of his cloak, behold, it had turned again as his other flesh. 8 "It will happen, if they will neither believe you nor listen to the voice of the first sign, that they will believe the voice of the latter sign. 9 It will happen, if they will not believe even these two signs, neither listen to your voice, that you shall take of the water of the river, and pour it on the dry land. The water which you take out of the river will become blood on the dry land." 10 Moshe said to the LORD, "Oh, Lord, I am not eloquent, neither before now, nor since you have spoken to your servant; for I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue." 11 The LORD said to him, "Who made man's mouth? Or who makes one mute, or deaf, or seeing, or blind? Isn't it I, the LORD? 12 Now therefore go, and I will be with your mouth, and teach you what you shall speak."13 He said, "Oh, Lord, please send someone else."14 The anger of the LORD was kindled against Moshe, and he said, "What about Aharon, your brother, the Levine? I know that he can speak well. Also, behold, he comes forth to meet you. When he sees you, he will be glad in his heart. 15 You shall speak to him, and put the words in his mouth. I will be with your mouth, and with his mouth, and will teach you what you shall do. 16 He will be your spokesman to the people; and it will happen, that he will be to you a mouth, and you will be to him as God. 17 You shall take this rod in your hand, with which you shall do the signs." 18 Moshe went and returned to Yitro his father-in-law, and said to him, "Please let me go and return to my brothers who are in Mitzrayim, and see whether they are still alive." Yitro said to Moshe, "Go in shalom." 19 The LORD said to Moshe in Midyan, "Go, return into Mitzrayim; for all the men who sought your life are dead." 20 Moshe took his wife and his sons, and set them on a donkey, and he returned to the land of Mitzrayim. Moshe took God's rod in his hand. 21 The LORD said to Moshe, "When you go back into Mitzrayim, see that you do before Par`oh all the wonders which I have put in your hand, but I will harden his heart and he will not let the people go. 22 You shall tell Par`oh, 'Thus says the LORD, Yisra'el is my son, my firstborn, 23 and I have said to you, "Let my son go, that he may serve me;" and you have refused to let him go. Behold, I will kill your son, your firstborn.'" 24 It happened on the way at a lodging place, that the LORD met him and wanted to kill him. 25 Then Tzipporah took a flint, and cut off the foreskin of her son, and cast it at his feet; and she said, "Surely you are a bridegroom of blood to me." 26 So he let him alone. Then she said, "You are a bridegroom of blood," because of the circumcision. 27 The LORD said to Aharon, "Go into the wilderness to meet Moshe." He went, and met him on God's mountain, and kissed him. 28 Moshe told Aharon all the words of the LORD with which he had sent him, and all the signs with which he had charged him. 29 Moshe and Aharon went and gathered together all the Zakenim of the children of Yisra'el. 30 Aharon spoke all the words which the LORD had spoken to Moshe, and did the signs in the sight of the people. 31 The people believed, and when they heard that the LORD had visited the children of Yisra'el, and that he had seen their affliction, then they bowed their heads and worshiped.


5:1 Afterward Moshe and Aharon came, and said to Par`oh, "This is what the LORD, the God of Yisra'el, says, 'Let my people go, that they may hold a feast to me in the wilderness.'" 2 Par`oh said, "Who is the LORD, that I should listen to his voice to let Yisra'el go? I don't know the LORD, and moreover I will not let Yisra'el go." 3 They said, "The God of the Hebrews has met with us. Please let us go three days' journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to the LORD, our God, lest he fall on us with pestilence, or with the sword." 4 The king of Mitzrayim said to them, "Why do you, Moshe and Aharon, take the people from their work? Get back to your burdens!" 5 Par`oh said, "Behold, the people of the land are now many, and you make them rest from their burdens." 6 The same day Par`oh commanded the taskmasters of the people, and their officers, saying, 7 "You shall no longer give the people straw to make brick, as before. Let them go and gather straw for themselves. 8 The number of the bricks, which they made before, you require from them. You shall not diminish anything of it, for they are idle; therefore they cry, saying, 'Let us go and sacrifice to our God.'9 Let heavier work be laid on the men, that they may labor therein; and don't let them pay any attention to lying words." 10 The taskmasters of the people went out, and their officers, and they spoke to the people, saying, This is what Par`oh says: "I will not give you straw. 11 Go yourselves, get straw where you can find it, for nothing of your work shall be diminished." 12 So the people were scattered abroad throughout all the land of Mitzrayim to gather stubble for straw. 13 The taskmasters were urgent saying, "Fulfill your work quota daily, as when there was straw!" 14 The officers of the children of Yisra'el, whom Par`oh's taskmasters had set over them, were beaten, and demanded, "Why haven't you fulfilled your quota both yesterday and today, in making brick as before?" 15 Then the officers of the children of Yisra'el came and cried to Par`oh, saying, "Why do you deal this way with your servants? 16 No straw is given to your servants, and they tell us, 'Make brick!' and, behold, your servants are beaten; but the fault is in your own people." 17 But he said, "You are idle! You are idle! Therefore you say, 'Let us go and sacrifice to the LORD.' 18 Go therefore now, and work, for no straw shall be given to you, yet shall you deliver the same number of bricks!" 19 The officers of the children of Yisra'el saw that they were in trouble, when it was said, "You shall not diminish anything from your daily quota of bricks!" 20 They met Moshe and Aharon, who stood in the way, as they came forth from Par`oh: 21 and they said to them, "May the LORD look at you, and judge, because you have made us a stench to be abhorred in the eyes of Par`oh, and in the eyes of his servants, to put a sword in their hand to kill us." 22 Moshe returned to the LORD, and said, "Lord, why have you brought trouble on this people? Why is it that you have sent me?



NEW TESTAMENT: MATTHEW 18:1 - 20


18:1 In that hour the talmidim came to Yeshua, saying, "Who then is greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven?" 

2 Yeshua called a little child to himself, and set him in the midst of them, 

3 and said, "Most assuredly I tell you, unless you turn, and become as little children, you will in no way enter into the Kingdom of Heaven. 

4 Whoever therefore will humble himself as this little child, the same is the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven. 

5 Whoever will receive one such little child in my name receives me, 

6 but whoever will cause one of these little ones who believe in me to stumble, it would be better for him that a huge millstone should be hung around his neck, and that he should be sunk in the depths of the sea. 

7  "Woe to the world because of occasions of stumbling! For it must be that the occasions come, but woe to that person through whom the occasion comes! 

8 If your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off, and cast it from you. It is better for you to enter into life maimed or crippled, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into the eternal fire. 

9 If your eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from you. It is better for you to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the Gehinnom of fire. 

10 See that you don't despise one of these little ones, for I tell you that in heaven their angels always see the face of my Father who is in heaven. 

11 For the Son of Man came to save that which was lost.

12 "What do you think? If a man has one hundred sheep, and one of them goes astray, doesn't he leave the ninety-nine, go to the mountains, and seek that which has gone astray? 

13 If he happens to find it, most assuredly I tell you, he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine which have not gone astray. 

14 Even so it is not the will of your Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish. 

15 "If your brother sins against you, go, show him his fault between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained back your brother. 

16 But if he doesn't listen, take one or two more with you, that at the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established. 

17 If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the assembly. If he refuses to hear the assembly also, let him be to you as a Goya or a tax collector. 

18 Most assuredly I tell you, whatever things you will bind on eretz will be bound in heaven, and whatever things you will loose on eretz will be loosed in heaven. 

19 Again, assuredly I tell you, that if two of you will agree on eretz concerning anything that they will ask, it will be done for them by my Father who is in heaven. 

20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there I am in the midst of them.


John 3:16-21 16 "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, F that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son. G 19 This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. 20 Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. 21 But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God."
