To Be Determined

Uncategorized Scripture

:

He weakened my strength along the course. He shortened my days.

:

I said, “My God, don’t take me away in the midst of my days. Your years are throughout all generations.

:

Of old, you laid the foundation of the earth. The heavens are the work of your hands.

:

They will perish, but you will endure. Yes, all of them will wear out like a garment. You will change them like a cloak, and they will be changed.

:

But you are the same. Your years will have no end.

:

The children of your servants will continue. Their seed will be established before you.”

:

By David.

:

Praise Yahweh, my soul, and don’t forget all his benefits;

:

who forgives all your sins; who heals all your diseases;

:

who redeems your life from destruction; who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies;

:

who satisfies your desire with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.

:

Yahweh executes righteous acts, and justice for all who are oppressed.

:

He made known his ways to Moses, his deeds to the children of Israel.

:

Yahweh is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness.

:

He will not always accuse; neither will he stay angry forever.

:

He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor repaid us for our iniquities.

:

For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is his loving kindness toward those who fear him.

:

As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.

:

Like a father has compassion on his children, so Yahweh has compassion on those who fear him.

:

For he knows how we are made. He remembers that we are dust.

:

As for man, his days are like grass. As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.

:

For the wind passes over it, and it is gone. Its place remembers it no more.

:

But Yahweh’s loving kindness is from everlasting to everlasting with those who fear him, his righteousness to children’s children;

:

to those who keep his covenant, to those who remember to obey his precepts.

:

Yahweh has established his throne in the heavens. His kingdom rules over all.

:

Praise Yahweh, you angels of his, who are mighty in strength, who fulfill his word, obeying the voice of his word.

:

Praise Yahweh, all you armies of his, you servants of his, who do his pleasure.

:

Praise Yahweh, all you works of his, in all places of his dominion. Praise Yahweh, my soul!

:

Bless Yahweh, my soul. Yahweh, my God, you are very great. You are clothed with honor and majesty.

:

He covers himself with light as with a garment. He stretches out the heavens like a curtain.

:

He lays the beams of his rooms in the waters. He makes the clouds his chariot. He walks on the wings of the wind.

:

He makes his messengers winds; his servants flames of fire.

:

He laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be moved forever.

:

You covered it with the deep as with a cloak. The waters stood above the mountains.

:

At your rebuke they fled. At the voice of your thunder they hurried away.

:

The mountains rose, the valleys sank down, to the place which you had assigned to them.

:

You have set a boundary that they may not pass over; that they don’t turn again to cover the earth.

:

He sends forth springs into the valleys. They run among the mountains.

:

They give drink to every animal of the field. The wild donkeys quench their thirst.

:

The birds of the sky nest by them. They sing among the branches.

:

He waters the mountains from his rooms. The earth is filled with the fruit of your works.

:

He causes the grass to grow for the livestock, and plants for man to cultivate, that he may bring forth food out of the earth:

:

wine that makes glad the heart of man, oil to make his face to shine, and bread that strengthens man’s heart.

:

Yahweh’s trees are well watered, the cedars of Lebanon, which he has planted;

:

where the birds make their nests. The stork makes its home in the fir trees.

:

The high mountains are for the wild goats. The rocks are a refuge for the rock badgers.

:

He appointed the moon for seasons. The sun knows when to set.

:

You make darkness, and it is night, in which all the animals of the forest prowl.

:

The young lions roar after their prey, and seek their food from God.

:

The sun rises, and they steal away, and lay down in their dens.

:

Man goes forth to his work, to his labor until the evening.

:

Yahweh, how many are your works! In wisdom have you made them all. The earth is full of your riches.

:

There is the sea, great and wide, in which are innumerable living things, both small and large animals.

:

There the ships go, and leviathan, whom you formed to play there.

:

These all wait for you, that you may give them their food in due season.

:

You give to them; they gather. You open your hand; they are satisfied with good.

:

You hide your face: they are troubled; you take away their breath: they die, and return to the dust.

:

You send forth your Spirit: they are created. You renew the face of the ground.

:

Let the glory of Yahweh endure forever. Let Yahweh rejoice in his works.

:

He looks at the earth, and it trembles. He touches the mountains, and they smoke.

:

I will sing to Yahweh as long as I live. I will sing praise to my God while I have any being.

:

Let your meditation be sweet to him. I will rejoice in Yahweh.

:

Let sinners be consumed out of the earth. Let the wicked be no more. Bless Yahweh, my soul. Praise Yah!

:

Give thanks to Yahweh! Call on his name! Make his doings known among the peoples.

:

Sing to him, sing praises to him! Tell of all his marvelous works.

:

Glory in his holy name. Let the heart of those who seek Yahweh rejoice.

:

Seek Yahweh and his strength. Seek his face forever more.

:

Remember his marvelous works that he has done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth,

:

you seed of Abraham, his servant, you children of Jacob, his chosen ones.

:

He is Yahweh, our God. His judgments are in all the earth.

:

He has remembered his covenant forever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations,

:

the covenant which he made with Abraham, his oath to Isaac,

:

and confirmed the same to Jacob for a statute; to Israel for an everlasting covenant,

:

saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance;”

:

when they were but a few men in number, yes, very few, and foreigners in it.

:

They went about from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people.

:

He allowed no one to do them wrong. Yes, he reproved kings for their sakes,

:

“Don’t touch my anointed ones! Do my prophets no harm!”

:

He called for a famine on the land. He destroyed the food supplies.

:

He sent a man before them. Joseph was sold for a slave.

:

They bruised his feet with shackles. His neck was locked in irons,

:

until the time that his word happened, and Yahweh’s word proved him true.

:

The king sent and freed him; even the ruler of peoples, and let him go free.

:

He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all of his possessions;

:

to discipline his princes at his pleasure, and to teach his elders wisdom.

:

Israel also came into Egypt. Jacob lived in the land of Ham.

:

He increased his people greatly, and made them stronger than their adversaries.

:

He turned their heart to hate his people, to conspire against his servants.

:

He sent Moses, his servant, and Aaron, whom he had chosen.

:

They performed miracles among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.

:

He sent darkness, and made it dark. They didn’t rebel against his words.

:

He turned their waters into blood, and killed their fish.

:

Their land swarmed with frogs, even in the rooms of their kings.

:

He spoke, and swarms of flies came, and lice in all their borders.

:

He gave them hail for rain, with lightning in their land.

:

He struck their vines and also their fig trees, and shattered the trees of their country.

:

He spoke, and the locusts came, and the grasshoppers, without number,

:

ate up every plant in their land; and ate up the fruit of their ground.

:

He struck also all the firstborn in their land, the first fruits of all their manhood.

:

He brought them forth with silver and gold. There was not one feeble person among his tribes.
