THE LORD'S COVENANT WITH DAVID

  Psalm 89-90 The  Lord’s  Covenant with David, and Israel’s Afflictions. A skillful song,  or  a didactic  or  reflective poem, of Ethan the Ezrahite. 89  I will sing of the goodness  and  lovingkindness of the  Lord  forever; With my mouth I will make known Your faithfulness from generation to generation. 2  For I have said, “Goodness  and  lovingkindness will be built up forever; In the heavens [unchangeable and majestic] You will establish Your faithfulness.” 3  [God has said] “I have made a covenant with My chosen one; I have sworn to David My servant, 4  I will establish your seed forever And I will build up your throne for all generations.”   Selah. 5  The heavens (angels) praise Your wonders, O  Lord , Your faithfulness also in the assembly of the holy ones. 6  For who in the heavens can be compared to the  Lord ? Who among the divine beings is like the  Lord , 7  A God greatly feared  and  reverently worshiped in the council of the holy [angelic] ones, And awesome above all th

A LAMENT OVER THE DESTRUCTION OF JERUSALEM, AND PRAYER FOR HELP

Psalm 79 A psalm of Asaph. 1  O God, the nations have invaded your inheritance;      they have defiled your holy temple,      they have reduced Jerusalem to rubble. 2  They have left the dead bodies of your servants      as food for the birds of the sky,      the flesh of your own people for the animals of the wild. 3  They have poured out blood like water      all around Jerusalem,      and there is no one to bury the dead. 4  We are objects of contempt to our neighbors,      of scorn and derision to those around us. 5  How long,  Lord ? Will you be angry forever?      How long will your jealousy burn like fire? 6  Pour out your wrath on the nations      that do not acknowledge you, on the kingdoms      that do not call on your name; 7  for they have devoured Jacob      and devastated his homeland. 8  Do not hold against us the sins of past generations;      may your mercy come quickly to meet us,      for we are in desperate need. 9  Help us, God our Savior,      for the glory of you

DAILY BIBLE READING - An Appeal against the Devastation of the Land by the Enemy.

A skillful song,  or  a didactic  or  reflective poem, of Asaph. 74  O God, why have You rejected us forever? Why does Your anger smoke against the sheep of Your pasture? 2  Remember Your congregation, which You have purchased of old, Which You have redeemed to be the tribe of Your inheritance; Remember Mount Zion, where You have dwelt. 3  Turn your footsteps [quickly] toward the perpetual ruins; The enemy has damaged everything within the sanctuary. 4  In the midst of Your meeting place Your enemies have roared [with their battle cry]; They have set up their own emblems for signs [of victory]. 5  It seems as if one had lifted up An axe in a forest of trees [to set a record of destruction]. 6  And now all the carved work [of the meeting place] They smash with hatchets and hammers. 7  They have burned Your sanctuary to the ground; They have profaned the dwelling place of Your  [ a ] name. 8  They said in their heart, “Let us completely subdue them.” They have burned all the meeting plac
