But as for me, I will declare it forever;
I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.
And all the horns of the wicked I will cut off,
But the horns of the righteous will be raised up.
Sep 12: Psalm 74; Jeremiah 26-29
Arise, O God, and plead Your own cause;
Remember how the wicked fool reproaches You all day long.
Do not forget the voice of Your adversaries,
The rumbling of those who rise against You which ascends continually.
Sep 11: Psalm 73; Jeremiah 23-25
Whom have I in heaven but You?
And besides You, I desire nothing on earth.
My flesh and my heart fail,
But God is the rock of my heart and my portion forever.
For, behold, those who are far from You will perish;
You have destroyed everyone who is unfaithful to You.
But as for me, the nearness of God is my good;
I have set Lord Yahweh as my refuge,
That I may recount all Your works.
Sep 10: Psalm 72; Jeremiah 19-22
Blessed be Yahweh God, the God of Israel,
Who alone works wondrous deeds.
And blessed be His glorious name forever;
And may the whole earth be filled with His glory.
Amen, and Amen.
Sep 8: Psalm 70; Jeremiah 13-15
Let those be joyful and glad in You
All who seek You
And let them say continually,
“Let God be magnified,”
Those who love Your salvation.
But I am afflicted and needy;
Hasten to me, O God!
You are my help and my protector;
O Yahweh, do not delay.
Sep 7: Psalm 69; Jeremiah 10-12
But as for me, my prayer is to You, O Yahweh, at an acceptable time;
O God, in the abundance of Your lovingkindness,
Answer me with the truth of Your salvation.
Deliver me from the mire and do not let me sink;
May I be delivered from my foes and from the deep waters.
May the flood of water not overflow me
Nor the deep swallow me up,
Nor the pit shut its mouth on me.
Answer me, O Yahweh, for Your lovingkindness is good;
According to the abundance of Your compassion, turn to me,
And do not hide Your face from Your slave,
For I am in distress; answer me quickly.
Oh draw near to my soul and redeem it;
Ransom me because of my enemies!
You know my reproach and my shame and my dishonor;
All my adversaries are before You.

Let heaven and earth praise Him,
The seas and everything that moves in them.
For God will save Zion and build the cities of Judah,
That they may dwell there and possess it.
The seed of His slaves will inherit it,
And those who love His name will dwell in it.
Sep 6: Psalm 68; Jeremiah 7-9
Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burden,
The God who is our salvation. Selah.
God is to us a God of salvation;
And to Yahweh the Lord belong escapes from death.
•••
Sing to God, O kingdoms of the earth,
Sing praises to the Lord, Selah.
To Him who rides upon the highest heavens, which are from ancient times;
Behold, He gives forth His voice, a voice that is strong.
Ascribe strength to God;
His majesty is over Israel
And His strength is in the skies.
O God, You are awesome from Your sanctuary.
The God of Israel Himself gives strength and might to the people.
Blessed be God!
Sep 5: Psalm 67; Jeremiah 5-6
God be gracious to us and bless us,
And cause His face to shine upon us— Selah.
That Your way may be known on the earth,
Your salvation among all nations.
Let the peoples praise You, O God;
Let all the peoples praise You.
Let the nations be glad and sing for joy;
For You will judge the peoples with uprightness
And lead the nations on the earth. Selah.
Let the peoples praise You, O God;
Let all the peoples praise You.
The earth has yielded its produce;
God, our God, blesses us.
God blesses us,
That all the ends of the earth may fear Him.
Sep 4: Psalm 66; Jeremiah 3-4
Come and hear, all who fear God,
And I will recount what He has done for my soul.
I called out to Him with my mouth,
And He was exalted with my tongue.
If I see wickedness in my heart,
The Lord will not hear;
But certainly God has heard;
He has given heed to the voice of my prayer.
Blessed be God,
Who has not turned away my prayer
Nor His lovingkindness from me.
Sep 3: Psalm 65; Jeremiah 1-2
To You, there will be silence and praise in Zion, O God,
And to You the vow will be paid.
O You who hear prayer,
To You all flesh comes.
Words of iniquity prevail against me;
As for our transgressions, You atone for them.
How blessed is the one whom You choose and bring near to You
That he would dwell in Your courts.
We will be satisfied with the goodness of Your house,
Your holy temple.
