Yahweh says to my Lord:
“Sit at My right hand
Until I put Your enemies as a footstool for Your feet.”
Yahweh will stretch forth Your strong scepter from Zion, saying,
“Have dominion in the midst of Your enemies.”
Your people will offer themselves freely in the day of Your power;
In the splendor of holiness, from the womb of the dawn,
The dew of Your youthfulness will be Yours.
Yahweh has sworn and will not change His mind,
“You are a priest forever
According to the order of Melchizedek.”
The Lord is at Your right hand;
He will crush kings in the day of His anger.
He will render justice among the nations

April 19: Psalm 109; 2Samuel 6-9
With my mouth I will give thanks abundantly to Yahweh;
And in the midst of many I will praise Him.
For He stands at the right hand of the needy,
To save him from those who judge his soul.
April 18: Psalm 108; 2Samuel 3:6-5
My heart is set, O God;
I will sing, I will sing praises, even with my glory.
Awake, harp and lyre;
I will awaken the dawn!
I will give thanks to You, O Yahweh, among the peoples,
And I will sing praises to You among the nations.
For Your lovingkindness is great above the heavens,
And Your truth reaches to the skies.
Be exalted above the heavens, O God,
And Your glory above all the earth.
April 17: Psalm 107; 2Samuel 1-3:5
Let them give thanks to Yahweh for His lovingkindness,
And for His wondrous deeds to the sons of men!
Let them also offer sacrifices of thanksgiving,
And recount His works with joyful singing.
April 16: Psalm 106; 1Samuel 28-31
Save us, O Yahweh our God,
And gather us from among the nations,
To give thanks to Your holy name
And revel in Your praise.
Blessed be Yahweh, the God of Israel,
From everlasting to everlasting.
And let all the people say, “Amen.”
Praise Yah!
April 15: Psalm 105; 1Samuel 25-27
Oh give thanks to Yahweh, call upon His name;
Make known His acts among the peoples.
Sing to Him, sing praises to Him;
Muse on all His wondrous deeds.
Boast in His holy name;
Let the heart of those who seek Yahweh be glad.
Inquire of Yahweh and His strength;
Seek His face continually.
Remember His wondrous deeds which He has done,
His miracles and the judgments uttered by His mouth,
O seed of Abraham, His servant,
O sons of Jacob, His chosen ones!
He is Yahweh our God;
His judgments are in all the earth.
April 14: Psalm 104; 1Samuel 22-24
Let the glory of Yahweh endure forever;
Let Yahweh be glad in His works;
He looks at the earth, and it trembles;
He touches the mountains, and they smoke.
I will sing to Yahweh throughout my life;
I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.
Let my musing be pleasing to Him;
As for me, I shall be glad in Yahweh.
Let sinners be consumed from the earth
And let the wicked be no more.
Bless Yahweh, O my soul.
Praise Yah!
April 13: Psalm 103; 1Samuel 19-21
Yahweh performs righteous deeds
And judgments for all who are oppressed.
He made known His ways to Moses,
His acts to the sons of Israel.
Yahweh is compassionate and gracious,
Slow to anger and abounding in lovingkindness.
He will not always contend with us,
And He will not keep His anger forever.
He has not dealt with us according to our sins,
And He has not rewarded us according to our iniquities.
For as high as the heavens are above the earth,
So great is His lovingkindness toward those who fear Him.
As far as the east is from the west,
So far has He removed our transgressions from us.
As a father has compassion on his children,
So Yahweh has compassion on those who fear Him.
For He Himself knows our form;
He remembers that we are but dust.
April 12: Psalm 102; 1Samuel 17-18
You, O Yahweh, abide forever,
And the remembrance of Your name from generation to generation.
You will arise and have compassion on Zion—
For it is time to be gracious to it,
For the appointed time has come.
—
Your years are from generation to all generations.
Of old You founded the earth,
And the heavens are the work of Your hands.
Even they will perish, but You will remain;
And all of them will wear out like a garment;
Like clothing You will change them and they will be changed.
But You are the same,
And Your years will not come to an end.
April 11: Psalm 101; 1Samuel 14:47-16
I will sing of lovingkindness and justice,
To You, O Yahweh, I will sing praises.
I will consider the way of the blameless.
When will You come to me?
I will walk within my house in the integrity of my heart.
I will set no vile thing before my eyes;
I hate the work of those who fall away;
It shall not cling to me.
A crooked heart shall depart from me;
I will know no evil.
Whoever secretly slanders his neighbor, him I will destroy;
Whoever has a haughty look and an arrogant heart, I will not endure.
My eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may abide with me;
He who walks in the way of the blameless is the one who will minister to me.
He who practices deceit shall not dwell within my house;
He who speaks lies shall not be established before my eyes.
Every morning I will destroy all the wicked of the land,
To cut off from the city of Yahweh all the workers of iniquity.
