诗55:21他的口如奶油光滑,他的心却怀着争战。他的话比油柔和,其实是拔出来的刀。
诗55:22你要把你的重担卸给耶和华,他必抚养你,他永不叫义人动摇。
诗55:23神阿,你必使恶人下入灭亡的坑,流人血行诡诈的人,必活不到半世,但我要倚靠你。
JUN 10 ,2015-The Journey of Grace (161/365) PSALM 51:1~ 55:23
Psalm 51
Psalm 51[a]
For the director of music. A
psalm of David. When the prophet Nathan came to him after David had committed
adultery with Bathsheba.
1 Have mercy on me, O God,
according
to your unfailing love;
according to your great
compassion
blot out my
transgressions.
2 Wash away all my iniquity
and cleanse
me from my sin.
3 For I know my
transgressions,
and my sin
is always before me.
4 Against you, you on
and done
what is evil in your sight;
so you are right in your
verdict
and
justified when you judge.
5 Surely I was sinful at
birth,
sinful from
the time my mother conceived me.
6 Yet you desired faithfulness
even in the womb;
you taught
me wisdom in that secret place.
7 Cleanse me with hyssop, and
I will be clean;
wash me,
and I will be whiter than snow.
8 Let me hear joy and
gladness;
let the
bones you have crushed rejoice.
9 Hide your face from my sins
and blot
out all my iniquity.
10 Create in me a pure heart,
O God,
and renew a
steadfast spirit within me.
11 Do not cast me from your
presence
or take
your Holy Spirit from me.
12 Restore to me the joy of
your salvation
and grant
me a willing spirit, to sustain me.
13 Then I will teach
transgressors your ways,
so that
sinners will turn back to you.
14 Deliver me from the guilt
of bloodshed, O God,
you who are
God my Savior,
and my
tongue will sing of your righteousness.
15 Open my lips, Lord,
and my
mouth will declare your praise.
16 You do not delight in
sacrifice, or I would bring it;
you do not
take pleasure in burnt offerings.
17 My sacrifice, O God, is[b]
a broken spirit;
a broken
and contrite heart
you, God,
will not despise.
18 May it please you to
prosper Zion,
to build up
the walls of Jerusalem.
19 Then you will delight in
the sacrifices of the righteous,
in burnt
offerings offered whole;
then bulls
will be offered on your altar.
Psalm 52
Psalm 52[a]
For the director of music. A
maskil[b] of David. When Doeg the Edomite had gone to Saul and told him: “David has gone to the house of Ahimelek.”
1 Why do you boast of evil,
you mighty hero?
Why do you
boast all day long,
you who are
a disgrace in the eyes of God?
2 You who practice deceit,
your tongue
plots destruction;
it is like
a sharpened razor.
3 You love evil rather than
good,
falsehood
rather than speaking the truth.[c]
4 You love every harmful word,
you
deceitful tongue!
5 Surely God will bring you down
to everlasting ruin:
He will
snatch you up and pluck you from your tent;
he will
uproot you from the land of the living.
6 The righteous will see and
fear;
they will
laugh at you, saying,
7 “Here now is
the man
who did not
make God his stronghold
but trusted in his great
wealth
and grew
strong by destroying others!”
8 But I am like an olive tree
flourishing
in the house of God;
I trust in God’s unfailing love
for ever
and ever.
9 For what you have done I
will always praise you
in the presence
of your faithful people.
And I will hope in your name,
for your
name is good.
Psalm 53
Psalm 53[a]
For the director of music.
According to mahalath.[b] A maskil[c] of David.
1 The fool says in his heart,
“There is no God.”
They are corrupt, and their
ways are vile;
there is no
on
2 God looks down from heaven
on all
mankind
to see if there are any who
understand,
any who
seek God.
3 Everyone has turned away,
all have become corrupt;
there is no
on
not even on
4 Do all these evildoers know
nothing?
They devour my people as
though eating bread;
they never
call on God.
5 But there they are,
overwhelmed with dread,
where there
was nothing to dread.
God scattered the bones of
those who attacked you;
you put
them to shame, for God despised them.
6 Oh, that salvation for
Israel would come out of Zion!
When God
restores his people,
let Jacob
rejoice and Israel be glad!
Psalm 54
Psalm 54[a]
For the director of music.
With stringed instruments. A maskil[b] of David. When the Ziphites had gone to
Saul and said, “Is not David
hiding among us?”
1 Save me, O God, by your
name;
vindicate
me by your might.
2 Hear my prayer, O God;
listen to
the words of my mouth.
3 Arrogant foes are attacking
me;
ruthless
people are trying to kill me—
people
without regard for God.[c]
4 Surely God is my help;
the Lord is
the on
5 Let evil recoil on those who
slander me;
in your
faithfulness destroy them.
6 I will sacrifice a freewill
offering to you;
I will praise
your name, Lord, for it is good.
7 You have delivered me from
all my troubles,
and my eyes
have looked in triumph on my foes.
Psalm 55
Psalm 55[a]
For the director of music.
With stringed instruments. A maskil[b] of David.
1 Listen to my prayer, O God,
do not
ignore my plea;
2 hear
me and answer me.
My thoughts trouble me and I
am distraught
3
because of what my enemy is saying,
because of
the threats of the wicked;
for they bring down suffering
on me
and assail
me in their anger.
4 My heart is in anguish
within me;
the terrors
of death have fallen on me.
5 Fear and trembling have
beset me;
horror has
overwhelmed me.
6 I said, “Oh, that I had the wings of a dove!
I would fly
away and be at rest.
7 I would flee far away
and stay in
the desert;[c]
8 I would hurry to my place of
shelter,
far from
the tempest and storm.”
9 Lord, confuse the wicked,
confound their words,
for I see
violence and strife in the city.
10 Day and night they prowl
about on its walls;
malice and
abuse are within it.
11 Destructive forces are at
work in the city;
threats and
lies never leave its streets.
12 If an enemy were insulting
me,
I could
endure it;
if a foe were rising against
me,
I could
hide.
13 But it is you, a man like
myself,
my
companion, my close friend,
14 with whom I on
at the
house of God,
as we walked about
among the
worshipers.
15 Let death take my enemies
by surprise;
let them go
down alive to the realm of the dead,
for evil
finds lodging among them.
16 As for me, I call to God,
and the
Lord saves me.
17 Evening, morning and noon
I cry out
in distress,
and he
hears my voice.
18 He rescues me unharmed
from the
battle waged against me,
even though
many oppose me.
19 God, who is enthroned from
of old,
who does
not change—
he will hear them and humble
them,
because
they have no fear of God.
20 My companion attacks his
friends;
he violates
his covenant.
21 His talk is smooth as
butter,
yet war is
in his heart;
his words are more soothing
than oil,
yet they
are drawn swords.
22 Cast your cares on the Lord
and he will
sustain you;
he will never let
the
righteous be shaken.
23 But you, God, will bring
down the wicked
into the
pit of decay;
the bloodthirsty and deceitful
will not
live out half their days.
But as for me, I trust in you.
