Psalm 101
1 I WILL sing of mercy and loving-kindness and justice; to You, O Lord, will I sing.2 I will behave myself wisely and give heed to the blameless way--O when will You come to me? I will walk within my house in integrity and with a blameless heart.3 I will set no base or wicked thing before my eyes. I hate the work of them who turn aside [from the right path]; it shall not grasp hold of me.4 A perverse heart shall depart from me; I will know no evil person or thing.5 Whoso privily slanders his neighbor, him will I cut off [from me]; he who has a haughty look and a proud and arrogant heart I cannot and I will not tolerate.6 My eyes shall [look with favor] upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me; he who walks blamelessly, he shall minister to me.7 He who works deceit shall not dwell in my house; he who tells lies shall not continue in my presence.8 Morning after morning I will root up all the wicked in the land, that I may eliminate all the evildoers from the city of the Lord.
Psalm 102
1 HEAR MY prayer, O Lord, and let my cry come to You.2 Hide not Your face from me in the day when I am in distress! Incline Your ear to me; in the day when I call, answer me speedily.3 For my days consume away like smoke, and my bones burn like a firebrand or like a hearth.4 My heart is smitten like grass and withered, so that [in absorption] I forget to eat my food.5 By reason of my loud groaning [from suffering and trouble] my flesh cleaves to my bones.6 I am like a melancholy pelican or vulture of the wilderness; I am like a [desolate] owl of the waste places.7 I am sleepless and lie awake [mourning], like a bereaved sparrow alone on the housetop.8 My adversaries taunt and reproach me all the day; and they who are angry with me use my name as a curse.9 For I have eaten the ashes [in which I sat] as if they were bread and have mingled my drink with weeping10 Because of Your indignation and Your wrath, for You have taken me up and cast me away.11 My days are like an evening shadow that stretches out and declines [with the sun]; and I am withered like grass.12 But You, O Lord, are enthroned forever; and the fame of Your name endures to all generations.13 You will arise and have mercy and loving-kindness for Zion, for it is time to have pity and compassion for her; yes, the set time has come [the moment designated]. 14 For Your servants take [melancholy] pleasure in the stones [of her ruins] and show pity for her dust.15 So the nations shall fear and worshipfully revere the name of the Lord, and all the kings of the earth Your glory. 16 When the Lord builds up Zion, He will appear in His glory;17 He will regard the plea of the destitute and will not despise their prayer.18 Let this be recorded for the generation yet unborn, that a people yet to be created shall praise the Lord.19 For He looked down from the height of His sanctuary, from heaven did the Lord behold the earth,20 To hear the sighing and groaning of the prisoner, to loose those who are appointed to death,21 So that men may declare the name of the Lord in Zion and His praise in Jerusalem22 When peoples are gathered together, and the kingdoms, to worship and serve the Lord.23 He has afflicted and weakened my strength, humbling and bringing me low [with sorrow] in the way; He has shortened my days [aging me prematurely].24 I said, O my God, take me not away in the midst of my days, You Whose years continue throughout all generations.25 At the beginning You existed and laid the foundations of the earth; the heavens are the work of Your hands.26 They shall perish, but You shall remain and endure; yes, all of them shall wear out and become old like a garment. Like clothing You shall change them, and they shall be changed and pass away.27 But You remain the same, and Your years shall have no end. 28 The children of Your servants shall dwell safely and continue, and their descendants shall be established before You.
Psalm 103
1 BLESS (AFFECTIONATELY, gratefully praise) the Lord, O my soul; and all that is [deepest] within me, bless His holy name!2 Bless (affectionately, gratefully praise) the Lord, O my soul, and forget not [one of] all His benefits--3 Who forgives [every one of] all your iniquities, Who heals [each one of] all your diseases,4 Who redeems your life from the pit and corruption, Who beautifies, dignifies, and crowns you with loving-kindness and tender mercy;5 Who satisfies your mouth [your necessity and desire at your personal age and situation] with good so that your youth, renewed, is like the eagle’s [strong, overcoming, soaring]! 6 The Lord executes righteousness and justice [not for me only, but] for all who are oppressed.7 He made known His ways [of righteousness and justice] to Moses, His acts to the children of Israel.8 The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and plenteous in mercy and loving-kindness. 9 He will not always chide or be contending, neither will He keep His anger forever or hold a grudge.10 He has not dealt with us after our sins nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.11 For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great are His mercy and loving-kindness toward those who reverently and worshipfully fear Him.12 As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us.13 As a father loves and pities his children, so the Lord loves and pities those who fear Him [with reverence, worship, and awe].14 For He knows our frame, He [earnestly] remembers and imprints [on His heart] that we are dust.15 As for man, his days are as grass; as a flower of the field, so he flourishes.16 For the wind passes over it and it is gone, and its place shall know it no more.17 But the mercy and loving-kindness of the Lord are from everlasting to everlasting upon those who reverently and worshipfully fear Him, and His righteousness is to children’s children--18 To such as keep His covenant [hearing, receiving, loving, and obeying it] and to those who [earnestly] remember His commandments to do them [imprinting them on their hearts].19 The Lord has established His throne in the heavens, and His kingdom rules over all.20 Bless (affectionately, gratefully praise) the Lord, you His angels, you mighty ones who do His commandments, hearkening to the voice of His word.21 Bless (affectionately, gratefully praise) the Lord, all you His hosts, you His ministers who do His pleasure.22 Bless the Lord, all His works in all places of His dominion; bless (affectionately, gratefully praise) the Lord, O my soul!
