July 31: Psalm 31; Job 20-24

How great is Your goodness,
Which You have stored up for those who fear You,
Which You have worked for those who take refuge in You,
Before the sons of men!
You hide them in the secret place of Your presence from the conspiracies of man;
You keep them secretly in a shelter from the strife of tongues.
Blessed be Yahweh,
For He has made marvelous His lovingkindness to me in a besieged city.
As for me, I said in my alarm,
“I am cut off from before Your eyes”;
Nevertheless, You heard the voice of my supplications
When I cried to You for help.

Oh, love Yahweh, all you His holy ones!
Yahweh guards the faithful
But repays fully the one who acts in lofty pride.
Be strong and let your heart take courage,
All you who wait for Yahweh.

July 30: Psalm 30; Job 15-19

I will exalt You, O Yahweh, for You have lifted me up,
And have not let my enemies be glad over me.
O Yahweh my God,
I cried to You for help, and You healed me.
O Yahweh, You have brought up my soul from Sheol;
You have kept me alive, that I would not go down to the pit.
Sing praise to Yahweh, you His holy ones,
And give thanks for the remembrance of His holy name.
For His anger is but for a moment,
His favor is for a lifetime;
Weeping may last for the night,
But a shout of joy comes in the morning.
•••

You have turned for me my mourning into dancing;
You have loosed my sackcloth and girded me with gladness,
That my glory may sing praise to You and not be silent.
O Yahweh my God, I will give thanks to You forever.

July 29: Psalm 29; Job 8-14

Ascribe to Yahweh, O sons of the mighty,
Ascribe to Yahweh glory and strength.
Ascribe to Yahweh the glory of His name;
Worship Yahweh in the splendor of holiness.
•••

Yahweh sat enthroned over the flood;
Indeed, Yahweh sits as King forever.
Yahweh will give strength to His people;
Yahweh will bless His people with peace.

July 28: Psalm 28; Job 1-7

Blessed be Yahweh,
Because He has heard the voice of my supplications.
Yahweh is my strength and my shield;
My heart trusts in Him, and I am helped;
Therefore my heart exults,
And with my song I shall thank Him.
Yahweh is their strength,
And He is a strong defense of salvation to His anointed.
Save Your people and bless Your inheritance;
Be their shepherd also, and carry them forever.

July 27: Psalm 27; 2Corinthians 11-13

Instruct me in Your way, O Yahweh,
And lead me in a level path
Because of my foes.
Do not give me over to the desire of my adversaries,
For false witnesses have risen against me,
And such as breathe out violence.
I would have despaired unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of Yahweh
In the land of the living.
Hope in Yahweh;
Be strong and let your heart take courage;
Hope in Yahweh.

July 26: Psalm 26; 2Corinthians 8-10

O Yahweh, I love the habitation of Your house
And the place where Your glory dwells.
Do not take my soul away along with sinners,
Nor my life with men of bloodshed,
In whose hands is a wicked scheme,
And whose right hand is full of bribes.
But as for me, I shall walk in my integrity;
Redeem me, and be gracious to me.
My foot stands on level ground;
In the congregations I shall bless Yahweh.

July 24: Psalm 24; 2Corinthians 1-3

Lift up your heads, O gates,
And be lifted up, O ancient doors,
That the King of glory may come in!
Who is this King of glory?
Yahweh strong and mighty,
Yahweh mighty in battle.
Lift up your heads, O gates,
And lift yourselves up, O ancient doors,
That the King of glory may come in!
Who is He, this King of glory?
Yahweh of hosts,
He is the King of glory. Selah.

July 23: Psalm 23; 1Corinthians 15-16

Yahweh is my shepherd,
I shall not want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside quiet waters.
He restores my soul;
He guides me in the paths of righteousness
For His name’s sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I fear no evil, for You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You have anointed my head with oil;
My cup overflows.
Surely goodness and lovingkindness will pursue me all the days of my life,
And I will dwell in the house of Yahweh forever.

July 22: Psalm 22; 1Corinthians 12-14

I will surely recount Your name to my brothers;
In the midst of the assembly I will praise You.
You who fear Yahweh, praise Him;
All you seed of Jacob, glorify Him,
And stand in awe of Him, all you seed of Israel.
For He has not despised and He has not abhorred the affliction of the afflicted;
And He has not hidden His face from him;
But when he cried to Him for help, He heard.
Of You is my praise in the great assembly;
I shall pay my vows before those who fear Him.

The afflicted will eat and be satisfied;
Those who seek Him will praise Yahweh.
May your heart live forever!
All the ends of the earth will remember and turn to Yahweh,
And all the families of the nations will worship before You.

For the kingdom is Yahweh’s
And He rules over the nations.
All the prosperous of the earth will eat and worship,
All those who go down to the dust will bow before Him,
Even he who cannot keep his soul alive.
Their seed will serve Him;
It will be recounted about the Lord to the coming generation.
They will come and will declare His righteousness
To a people who will be born, that He has done it.
