Behold the power of God in the Psalms!

Psalm 2

God’s Promise to His Anointed

2 Why do the nations conspire,

and the peoples plot in vain?

2 The kings of the earth set themselves,

and the rulers take counsel together,

against the Lord and his anointed, saying,

3 “Let us burst their bonds asunder,

and cast their cords from us.”

4 He who sits in the heavens laughs;

the Lord has them in derision.

5 Then he will speak to them in his wrath,

and terrify them in his fury, saying,

6 “I have set my king

on Zion, my holy hill.”

7 I will tell of the decree of the Lord:

He said to me, “You are my son,

today I have begotten you.

8 Ask of me, and I will make the nations your heritage,

and the ends of the earth your possession.

9 You shall break them with a rod of iron,

and dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.”

10 Now therefore, O kings, be wise;

be warned, O rulers of the earth.

11 Serve the Lord with fear,

with trembling 12 kiss his feet,

lest he be angry, and you perish in the way;

for his wrath is quickly kindled.

Blessed are all who take refuge in him.

Psalm 27

Triumphant Song of Confidence

A Psalm of David

27 The Lord is my light and my salvation;

whom shall I fear?

The Lord is the stronghold of my life;

of whom shall I be afraid?

2 When evildoers assail me,

uttering slanders against me,

my adversaries and foes,

they shall stumble and fall.

3 Though a host encamp against me,

my heart shall not fear;

though war arise against me,

yet I will be confident.

4 One thing have I asked of the Lord,

that will I seek after;

that I may dwell in the house of the Lord

all the days of my life,

to behold the beauty of the Lord,

and to inquire in his temple.

5 For he will hide me in his shelter

in the day of trouble;

he will conceal me under the cover of his tent,

he will set me high upon a rock.

6 And now my head shall be lifted up

above my enemies round about me;

and I will offer in his tent

sacrifices with shouts of joy;

I will sing and make melody to the Lord.

7 Hear, O Lord, when I cry aloud,

be gracious to me and answer me!

8 Thou hast said, “Seek ye my face.”

My heart says to thee,

“Thy face, Lord, do I seek.”

9 Hide not thy face from me.

Turn not thy servant away in anger,

thou who hast been my help.

Cast me not off, forsake me not,

O God of my salvation!

10 For my father and my mother have forsaken me,

but the Lord will take me up.

11 Teach me thy way, O Lord;

and lead me on a level path

because of my enemies.

12 Give me not up to the will of my adversaries;

for false witnesses have risen against me,

and they breathe out violence.

13 I believe that I shall see the goodness of the Lord

in the land of the living!

14 Wait for the Lord;

be strong, and let your heart take courage;

yea, wait for the Lord!

Psalm 77

God’s Mighty Deeds Recalled

To the choirmaster: according to Jeduthun. A Psalm of Asaph.

77 I cry aloud to God,

aloud to God, that he may hear me.

2 In the day of my trouble I seek the Lord;

in the night my hand is stretched out without wearying;

my soul refuses to be comforted.

3 I think of God, and I moan;

I meditate, and my spirit faints. Selah

4 Thou dost hold my eyelids from closing;

I am so troubled that I cannot speak.

5 I consider the days of old,

I remember the years long ago.

6 I commune with my heart in the night;

I meditate and search my spirit:

7 “Will the Lord spurn for ever,

and never again be favorable?

8 Has his steadfast love for ever ceased?

Are his promises at an end for all time?

9 Has God forgotten to be gracious?

Has he in anger shut up his compassion?” Selah

10 And I say, “It is my grief

that the right hand of the Most High has changed.”

11 I will call to mind the deeds of the Lord;

yea, I will remember thy wonders of old.

12 I will meditate on all thy work,

and muse on thy mighty deeds.

13 Thy way, O God, is holy.

What god is great like our God?

14 Thou art the God who workest wonders,

who hast manifested thy might among the peoples.

15 Thou didst with thy arm redeem thy people,

the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah

16 When the waters saw thee, O God,

when the waters saw thee, they were afraid,

yea, the deep trembled.

17 The clouds poured out water;

the skies gave forth thunder;

thy arrows flashed on every side.

18 The crash of thy thunder was in the whirlwind;

thy lightnings lighted up the world;

the earth trembled and shook.

19 Thy way was through the sea,

thy path through the great waters;

yet thy footprints were unseen.

20 Thou didst lead thy people like a flock

by the hand of Moses and Aaron.

Psalm 70

Prayer for Deliverance from Enemies

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David, for the memorial offering.

70 Be pleased, O God, to deliver me!

O Lord, make haste to help me!

2 Let them be put to shame and confusion

who seek my life!

Let them be turned back and brought to dishonor

who desire my hurt!

3 Let them be appalled because of their shame

who say, “Aha, Aha!”

4 May all who seek thee

rejoice and be glad in thee!

May those who love thy salvation

say evermore, “God is great!”

5 But I am poor and needy;

hasten to me, O God!

Thou art my help and my deliverer;

O Lord, do not tarry!
