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.

Jan 23: Psalm 23; Matthew 21-23
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.
Jan 22: Psalm 22; Matthew 18-20
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.
Jan 21: Psalm 21; Matthew 14-17
Be exalted, O Yahweh, in Your strength;
We will sing and praise Your might.
Jan 20: Psalm 20; Matthew 11-13
May Yahweh answer you in the day of distress!
May the name of the God of Jacob set you securely on high!
May He send you help from the sanctuary
And uphold you from Zion!
May He remember all your meal offerings
And find your burnt offering acceptable! Selah.
May He grant you your heart’s desire
And fulfill all your counsel!
We will sing for joy over your salvation,
And in the name of our God we will set up our banners.
May Yahweh fulfill all your petitions.
Now I know that Yahweh saves His anointed;
He will answer him from His holy heaven
With the saving might of His right hand.
Some boast in chariots and some in horses,
But we will boast in the name of Yahweh, our God.
They have bowed down and fallen,
But we have risen and stood upright.
Save, O Yahweh;
May the King answer us in the day we call.
Jan 19: Psalm 19; Matthew 8-10
The law of Yahweh is perfect, restoring the soul;
The testimony of Yahweh is sure, making wise the simple.
The precepts of Yahweh are right, rejoicing the heart;
The commandment of Yahweh is pure, enlightening the eyes.
The fear of Yahweh is clean, enduring forever;
The judgments of Yahweh are true; they are righteous altogether.
They are more desirable than gold, even more than much fine gold;
Sweeter also than honey and the drippings of the honeycomb.
Moreover, by them Your slave is warned;
In keeping them there is great reward.
Who can discern his errors? Acquit me of hidden faults.
Also keep back Your slave from presumptuous sins;
Let them not rule over me;
Then I will be blameless,
And I shall be acquitted of great transgression.
Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
Be acceptable in Your sight,
O Yahweh, my rock and
Jan 18: Psalm 18; Matthew 5-7
He said, “I love You, O Yahweh, my strength.”
Yahweh is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer,
My God, my rock, in whom I take refuge;
My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.
I call upon Yahweh, who is worthy to be praised,
And I am saved from my enemies.
Jan 17: Psalm 17; Matthew 3-4
I have called upon You, for You will answer me, O God;
Incline Your ear to me, hear my speech.
Marvelously show Your lovingkindnesses,
O Savior of those who take refuge at Your right hand
From those who rise up against them.
Keep me as the apple of the eye
Jan 16: Psalm 16; Matthew 1-2
I will bless Yahweh who has counseled me;
Indeed, my mind instructs me in the night.
I have set Yahweh continually before me;
Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.
Therefore my heart is glad and my glory rejoices;
My flesh also will dwell securely.
For You will not forsake my soul to Sheol;
You will not give Your Holy One over to see corruption.
You will make known to me the path of life;
In Your presence is fullness of joy;
In Your right hand there are pleasures forever.
Jan 15: Psalm 15; Genesis 49-50
O Yahweh, who may sojourn in Your tent?
Who may dwell on Your holy mountain?
He who walks blamelessly, and works righteousness,
And speaks truth in his heart.
He does not slander with his tongue,
Nor does evil to his neighbor,
Nor takes up a reproach against his friend;
In whose eyes a reprobate is despised,
But who honors those who fear Yahweh;
He swears to his own hurt and does not change;
He does not put out his money at interest,
Nor does he take a bribe against the innocent.
He who does these things will never be shaken.
