THEinc MESSIANIC PSALMS and PROVERBS


PSALMS


Psalms 28

 

1 To you, LORD, I call. My rock, don't be deaf to me; Lest, if you are silent to me, I would become like those who go down into the pit.

2 Hear the voice of my petitions, when I cry to you, When I lift up my hands toward your Most Holy Place.

3 Don't draw me away with the wicked, With the workers of iniquity who speak shalom with their neighbors, But mischief is in their hearts.

4 Give them according to their work, and according to the wickedness of their doings. Give them according to the operation of their hands. Bring back on them what they deserve.

5 Because they don't regard the works of the LORD, Nor the operation of his hands, He will break them down and not build them up.

6 Blessed be the LORD, Because he has heard the voice of my petitions.

7 The LORD is my strength and my shield. My heart has trusted in him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart greatly rejoices. With my song I will thank him.

8 The LORD is their strength. He is a stronghold of salvation to his anointed.

9 Save your people, and bless your inheritance. Be their shepherd also, and bear them up forever.


Psalms 58

 

1 Do you indeed speak righteousness, silent ones? Do you judge blamelessly, you sons of men?

2 No, in your heart you plot injustice. You measure out the violence of your hands in the eretz.

3 The wicked go astray from the womb. They are wayward as soon as they are born, speaking lies.

4 Their poison is like the poison of a snake; Like a deaf cobra that stops its ear,

5 Which doesn't listen to the voice of charmers, No matter how skillful the charmer may be.

6 Break their teeth, God, in their mouth. Break out the great teeth of the young lions, LORD.

7 Let them vanish as water that flows away. When they draw the bow, let their arrows be made blunt.

8 Let them be as a snail which melts and passes away, Like the stillborn child, who has not seen the sun.

9 Before your pots can feel the thorns, He will sweep away, the green and the burning alike.

10 The righteous shall rejoice when he sees the vengeance. He shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked;

11 So that men shall say, "Most assuredly there is a reward for the righteous. Most assuredly there is a God who judges the eretz."


Psalms 88

 

1 LORD, the God of my salvation, I have cried day and night before you.

2 Let my prayer enter into your presence. Turn your ear to my cry.

3 For my soul is full of troubles. My life draws near to She'ol.

4 I am counted among those who go down into the pit. I am like a man who has no help,

5 Set apart among the dead, Like the slain who lie in the grave, Whom you remember no more. They are cut off from your hand.

6 You have laid me in the lowest pit, In the darkest depths.

7 Your wrath lies heavily on me. You have afflicted me with all your waves. Selah.

8 You have taken my friends from me. You have made me an abomination to them. I am confined, and I can't escape.

9 My eyes are dim from grief. I have called on you daily, LORD. I have spread out my hands to you.

10 Do you show wonders to the dead? Do the dead rise up and praise you? Selah.

11 Is your lovingkindness declared in the grave? Or your faithfulness in Destruction?

12 Are your wonders made known in the dark? Or your righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?

13 But to you, LORD, I have cried. In the morning, my prayer comes before you.

14 LORD, why do you reject my soul? Why do you hide your face from me?

15 I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up. While I suffer your terrors, I am distracted.

16 Your fierce wrath has gone over me. Your terrors have cut me off.

17 They came around me like water all day long. They completely engulfed me.

18 You have put lover and friend far from me, And my friends into darkness.


Psalms 118

 

1 Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, For his lovingkindness endures forever.

2 Let Yisra'el now say That his lovingkindness endures forever.

3 Let the house of Aharon now say That his lovingkindness endures forever.

4 Now let those who fear the LORD say That his lovingkindness endures forever.

5 Out of my distress, I called on the LORD. The LORD answered me with freedom.

6 The LORD is on my side. I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?

7 The LORD is on my side among those who help me. Therefore I will look in triumph at those who hate me.

8 It is better to take refuge in the LORD, Than to put confidence in man.

9 It is better to take refuge in the LORD, Than to put confidence in princes.

10 All the nations surrounded me, But in the name of the LORD, I cut them off.

11 They surrounded me, yes, they surrounded me. In the name of the LORD I indeed cut them off.

12 They surrounded me like bees. They are quenched like the burning thorns. In the name of the LORD I cut them off.

13 You pushed me back hard, to make me fall, But the LORD helped me.

14 The LORD is my strength and song. He has become my yeshu`ah.

15 The voice of rejoicing and yeshu`ah is in the tents of the righteous. "The right hand of the LORD does valiantly.

16 The right hand of the LORD is exalted! The right hand of the LORD does valiantly!"

17 I will not die, but live, And declare the LORD's works.

18 The LORD has punished me severely, But he has not given me over to death.

19 Open to me the gates of righteousness. I will enter into them. I will give thanks to the LORD.

20 This is the gate of the LORD; The righteous will enter into it.

21 I will give thanks to you, for you have answered me, And have become my yeshu`ah.

22 The stone which the builders rejected has become the head of the corner.

23 This is the LORD's doing. It is marvelous in our eyes.

24 This is the day that the LORD has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it!

25 Save us now, we beg you, LORD; LORD, we beg you, now send prosperity.

26 Blessed is he who comes in the name of the LORD! We have blessed you out of the house of the LORD.

27 The LORD is God, and he has given us light. Bind the sacrifice with cords, even to the horns of the altar.

28 You are my God, and I will give thanks to you. You are my God, I will exalt you.

29 Oh give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, For his lovingkindness endures forever.


Psalms 148

 

1 Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD from the heavens! Praise him in the heights!

2 Praise him, all his angels! Praise him, all his host!

3 Praise him, sun and moon! Praise him, all you shining stars!

4 Praise him, you heavens of heavens, You waters that are above the heavens.

5 Let them praise the name of the LORD, For he commanded, and they were created.

6 He has also established them forever and ever. He has made a decree which will not pass away.

7 Praise the LORD from the eretz, You great sea creatures, and all depths!

8 Lightning and hail, snow and clouds; Stormy wind, fulfilling his word;

9 Mountains and all hills; Fruit trees and all cedars;

10 Wild animals and all cattle; Small creatures and flying birds;

11 Kings of the eretz and all peoples; Princes and all judges of the eretz;

12 Both young men and maidens; Old men and children:

13 Let them praise the name of the LORD, For his name alone is exalted. His glory is above the eretz and the heavens.

14 He has lifted up the horn of his people, The praise of all his holy ones; Even of the children of Yisra'el, a people near to him. Praise the LORD!



PROVERBS


Proverbs 28

 

1 The wicked flee when no one pursues; But the righteous are as bold as a lion.

2 In rebellion, a land has many rulers, But order is maintained by a man of understanding and knowledge.

3 A needy man who oppresses the poor Is like a driving rain which leaves no crops.

4 Those who forsake the law praise the wicked; But those who keep the law contend with them.

5 Evil men don't understand justice; But those who seek the LORD understand it fully.

6 Better is the poor who walks in his integrity, Than he who is perverse in his ways, and he is rich.

7 Whoever keeps the law is a wise son; But he who is a companion of gluttons shames his father.

8 He who increases his wealth by excessive interest Gathers it for one who has pity on the poor.

9 He who turns away his ear from hearing the law, Even his prayer is an abomination.

10 Whoever causes the upright to go astray in an evil way, He will fall into his own trap; But the blameless will inherit good.

11 The rich man is wise in his own eyes; But the poor who has understanding sees through him.

12 When the righteous triumph, there is great glory; But when the wicked rise, men hide themselves.

13 He who conceals his sins doesn't prosper, But whoever confesses and renounces them finds mercy.

14 Blessed is the man who always fears; But one who hardens his heart falls into trouble.

15 As a roaring lion or a charging bear, So is a wicked ruler over helpless people.

16 The ruler who lacks judgment is a great tyrant. One who hates ill-gotten gain will have long days.

17 A man who is tormented by life blood will be a fugitive until death; No one will support him.

18 Whoever walks blamelessly is kept safe; But one with perverse ways will fall suddenly.

19 One who works his land will have an abundance of food; But one who chases fantasies will have his fill of poverty.

20 A faithful man is rich with blessings; But one who is eager to be rich will not go unpunished.

21 To show partiality is not good; Yet a man will do wrong for a piece of bread.

22 A stingy man hurries after riches, And doesn't know that poverty waits for him.

23 One who rebukes a man will afterward find more favor Than one who flatters with the tongue.

24 Whoever robs his father or his mother, and says, "It's not wrong." He is a partner with a destroyer.

25 One who is greedy stirs up strife; But one who trusts in the LORD will prosper.

26 One who trusts in himself is a fool; But one who walks in wisdom, he is kept safe.

27 One who gives to the poor has no lack; But one who closes his eyes will have many curses.

28 When the wicked rise, men hide themselves; But when they perish, the righteous thrive.
