The heavens are Yours, the earth also is Yours;
The world and its fullness, You have founded them.
The north and the south, You have created them;
Tabor and Hermon sing with joy at Your name.
You have a mighty arm;
Your hand is strong, Your right hand is exalted.
Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Your throne;
Lovingkindness and truth go before You.
How blessed are the people who know the loud shout of joy!
O Yahweh, they walk in the light of Your face.
In Your name they rejoice all the day,
And by Your righteousness they are exalted.
For You are the beauty of their strength,
And by Your favor our horn is exalted.
For our shield belongs to Yahweh,
And our king to the Holy One of Israel.

March 29:: Psalm 88; Judges 1-3
O Yahweh, the God of my salvation,
I have cried out by day and throughout the night before You.
Let my prayer come before You;
Incline Your ear to my
March 28: Psalm 87; Mark 14:52-16
March 27: Psalm 86; Mark 13-14:51
Incline Your ear, O Yahweh, and answer me;
For I am afflicted and needy.
Keep my soul, for I am a holy one;
O You my God, save Your slave who trusts in You.
Be gracious to me, O Lord,
For to You I call all day long.
Make glad the soul of Your slave,
For to You, O Lord, I lift up my soul.
For You, Lord, are good, and by nature forgiving,
And abundant in lovingkindness to all who call upon You.
Give ear, O Yahweh, to my prayer;
And give heed to the voice of my supplications!
In the day of my distress I shall call upon You,
For You will answer me.
There is no one like You among the gods, O Lord,
Nor are there any works like Yours.
All nations whom You have made shall come and worship before You, O Lord,
And they shall glorify Your name.
For You are great and do wondrous deeds;
You alone are God.
Teach me Your way, O Yahweh;
I will walk in Your truth;
Unite my heart to fear Your name.
I will give thanks to You, O Lord my God, with all my heart,
And will glorify Your name forever.
For Your lovingkindness toward me is great,
And You have delivered my soul from Sheol below.
O God, arrogant men have risen up against me,
And a band of ruthless men have sought my life,
And they have not set You before them.
But You, O Lord, are a God compassionate and gracious,
Slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness and truth.
Turn to me, and be gracious to me;
Oh grant Your strength to Your slave,
And save the son of Your maidservant.
Show me a sign for good,
That those who hate me may see it and be ashamed,
Because You, O Yahweh, have helped me and comforted me.
March 26: Psalm 85; Mark 11-12
Let me hear what the God, Yahweh, will speak;
For He will speak peace to His people, to His holy ones;
But let them not turn back to folly.
Surely His salvation is near to those who fear Him,
That glory may dwell in our land.
Lovingkindness and truth have met together;
Righteousness and peace have kissed each other.
Truth springs up from the earth,
And righteousness looks down from heaven.
Indeed, Yahweh will give what is good,
And our land will yield its produce.
Righteousness will go before Him
And will establish the way of His steps.
March 25: Psalm 84; Mark 9-10
O Yahweh God of hosts, hear my prayer;
Give ear, O God of Jacob! Selah.
See our shield, O God,
And look upon the face of Your anointed.
For better is a day in Your courts than a thousand elsewhere.
I would choose to stand at the threshold of the house of my God
Than dwell in the tents of wickedness.
For Yahweh God is a sun and shield;
Yahweh gives grace and glory;
No good thing does He withhold from those who walk blamelessly.
O Yahweh of hosts,
How blessed is the man who trusts in You!
March 24: Psalm 83; Mark 7-8
O God, do not remain at rest;
Do not be silent and, O God, do not be quiet.
For behold, Your enemies roar,
And those who hate You have lifted up their heads.
They make shrewd plans against Your people,
And conspire together against Your treasured ones.
They have said, “Come, and let us wipe them out as a nation,
That the name of Israel be remembered no more.”
For they have conspired together with one heart;
Against You they cut a covenant:
•••
Fill their faces with disgrace,
That they may seek Your name, O Yahweh.
Let them be ashamed and dismayed forever,
And let them be humiliated and perish,
That they may know that You alone—Your name is Yahweh—
Are the Most High over all the earth.
March 23: Psalm 82; Mark 5-6
Arise, O God, judge the earth!
For it is You who will inherit all the nations.
March 22: Psalm 81; Mark 3-4
Let there be no strange god among you;
And you shall not worship a foreign god.
I am Yahweh your God,
Who brought you up from the land of Egypt;
Open your mouth wide and I will fill it.
March 21: Psalm 80; Mark 1-2
O God, restore us
And cause Your face to shine upon us, that we would be saved.
