You have taken account of my wanderings;
Put my tears in Your bottle.
Are they not in Your book?
Then my enemies will turn back in the day when I call;
This I know, that God is for me.
In God, whose word I praise,
In Yahweh, whose word I praise,
In God I trust, I shall not be afraid.
What can man do to me?
Your vows are binding upon me, O God;
I will fulfill thank offerings to You.
For You have delivered my soul from death,
Indeed my feet from stumbling,
So that I may walk before God
In the light of the living.
Feb 24: Psalm 55; Numbers 22-24
Cast your burden upon Yahweh and He will sustain you;
He will never allow the righteous to be shaken.
Feb 23: Psalm 54; Numbers 19-21
With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to You;
I will give thanks to Your name, O Yahweh, for it is good.
Feb 22: Psalm 53; Numbers 16-18
The wicked fool says in his heart, “There is no God,”
They act corruptly, and commit abominable injustice;
There is no one who does good.
God looks down from heaven upon the sons of men
To see if there is anyone who has insight,
Anyone who seeks after God.
Every one of them has turned back; together they have become worthless;
There is no one who does good, not even one.
Feb 21: Psalm 52; Numbers 13-15
I trust in the lovingkindness of God forever and ever.
I will give You thanks forever, because You have done it,
And I will hope on Your name, for it is good, in the presence of Your holy ones.
Feb 20: Psalm 51; Numbers 11-12
Be gracious to me, O God, according to Your lovingkindness;
According to the abundance of Your compassion blot out my transgressions.
Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity
And cleanse me from my sin.
For I know my transgressions,
And my sin is ever before me.
Against You, You only, I have sinned
And done what is evil in Your sight,
So that You are justified when You speak
And pure when You judge.
Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity,
And in sin my mother conceived me.
Behold, You delight in truth in the innermost being,
And in the hidden part You will make me know wisdom.
Purify me with hyssop, and I shall be clean;
Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
Make me to hear joy and gladness,
Let the bones which You have crushed rejoice.
Hide Your face from my sins
And blot out all my iniquities.
Create in me a clean heart, O God,
And renew a steadfast spirit within me.
Do not cast me away from Your presence
And do not take Your Holy Spirit from me.
Restore to me the joy of Your salvation
And sustain me with a willing spirit.
Then I will teach transgressors Your ways,
And sinners will be converted to You.
Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, the God of my salvation;
Then my tongue will joyfully sing of Your righteousness.
O Lord, open my lips,
That my mouth may declare Your praise.
For You do not delight in sacrifice, otherwise I would give it;
You are not pleased with burnt offering.
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit;
A broken and a contrite heart, O God, You will not despise.
Feb 19: Psalm 50; Numbers 8-10
Offer to God a sacrifice of thanksgiving
And pay your vows to the Most High;
Call upon Me in the day of distress;
I shall rescue you, and you will glorify Me.”
•••
Now consider this, you who forget God,
Lest I tear you in pieces, and there will be none to deliver.
He who offers a sacrifice of thanksgiving glorifies Me;
And he who orders his way,
I shall show the salvation of God.”
Feb 18: Psalm 49; Numbers 5-7
This is the way of those who are foolish,
And of those after them who are pleased with their words. Selah.
As sheep they are appointed for Sheol;
Death will shepherd them;
And the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning,
And their form shall be for Sheol to consume,
Far away from his habitation.
But God will redeem my soul from the power of Sheol,
For He will receive me. Selah
Feb 17: Psalm 48; Numbers 3-4
Great is Yahweh, and greatly to be praised,
In the city of our God, His holy mountain.
Beautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole earth,
Is Mount Zion in the far north,
The city of the great King.
God, in her palaces,
Has made Himself known as a stronghold.
•••
Walk about Zion and go around her;
Count her towers;
Consider her ramparts;
Go through her palaces,
That you may recount it to the next generation.
For this is God,
Our God forever and ever;
He will guide us over death.
Feb 16: Psalm 47; Numbers 1-2
Sing praises to God, sing praises;
Sing praises to our King, sing praises.
For God is the King of all the earth;
Sing praises with a skillful psalm.
