Psalm 140

Psalm 140
Prayer for Protection against the Wicked.
For the choir director. A Psalm of David.

Rescue me, O Lord, from evil men;
Preserve me from violent men
2
Who devise evil things in their hearts;
They continually stir up wars.
3
They sharpen their tongues as a serpent;
Poison of a viper is under their lips. Selah.

4
Keep me, O Lord, from the hands of the wicked;
Preserve me from violent men
Who have purposed to trip up my feet
.
5
The proud have hidden a trap for me, and cords;
They have spread a net by the wayside;
They have set snares for me. Selah.

6
I said to the Lord, “You are my God;
Give ear, O Lord, to the voice of my supplications.
7
“O God the Lord, the strength of my salvation,
You have covered my head in the day of battle
.
8
“Do not grant, O Lord, the desires of the wicked;
Do not promote his evil device, that they not be exalted. Selah.

9
“As for the head of those who surround me,
May the mischief of their lips cover them.
10
“May burning coals fall upon them;
May they be cast into the fire,
Into deep pits from which they cannot rise.
11
“May a slanderer not be established in the earth;
May evil hunt the violent man speedily.”

12
I know that the Lord will maintain the cause of the afflicted
And justice for the poor.
13
Surely the righteous will give thanks to Your name;
The upright will dwell in Your presence.

Psalm 135

Psalm 135
Praise the Lord’s Wonderful Works. Vanity of Idols.

135 Praise the Lord!
Praise the name of the Lord;
Praise Him, O servants of the Lord,
2
You who stand in the house of the Lord,
In the courts of the house of our God!
3
Praise the Lord, for the Lord is good;
Sing praises to His name, for it is lovely.
4
For the Lord has chosen Jacob for Himself,
Israel for His own possession.

5
For I know that the Lord is great
And that our Lord is above all gods.
6
Whatever the Lord pleases, He does,
In heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps.
7
He causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth;
Who makes lightnings for the rain,
Who brings forth the wind from His treasuries.

8
He smote the firstborn of Egypt,
Both of man and beast
.
9
He sent signs and wonders into your midst, O Egypt,
Upon Pharaoh and all his servants.
10
He smote many nations
And slew mighty kings
,
11
Sihon, king of the Amorites,
And Og, king of Bashan,
And all the kingdoms of Canaan;
12
And He gave their land as a heritage,
A heritage to Israel His people.
13
Your name, O Lord, is everlasting,
Your remembrance, O Lord, throughout all generations.
14
For the Lord will judge His people
And will have compassion on His servants.
15
The idols of the nations are but silver and gold,
The work of man’s hands.
16
They have mouths, but they do not speak;
They have eyes, but they do not see;
17
They have ears, but they do not hear,
Nor is there any breath at all in their mouths.
18
Those who make them will be like them,
Yes, everyone who trusts in them.

19
O house of Israel, bless the Lord;
O house of Aaron, bless the Lord;
20
O house of Levi, bless the Lord;
You who revere the Lord, bless the Lord.
21
Blessed be the Lord from Zion,
Who dwells in Jerusalem.
Praise the Lord!

Psalm 132

Psalm 132

Prayer for the Lord’s Blessing upon the Sanctuary.
A Song of Ascents.

Remember, O Lord, on David’s behalf,
All his affliction;
2
How he swore to the Lord
And vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob,
3
“Surely I will not enter my house,
Nor lie on my bed;
4
I will not give sleep to my eyes
Or slumber to my eyelids,
5
Until I find a place for the Lord,
A dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob.

6
Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah,
We found it in the field of Jaar.
7
Let us go into His dwelling place;
Let us worship at His footstool
.
8
Arise, O Lord, to Your resting place,
You and the ark of Your strength.
9
Let Your priests be clothed with righteousness,
And let Your godly ones sing for joy.

10
For the sake of David Your servant,
Do not turn away the face of Your anointed.
11
The Lord has sworn to David
A truth from which He will not turn back:
“Of the fruit of your body I will set upon your throne.
12
“If your sons will keep My covenant
And My testimony which I will teach them,
Their sons also shall sit upon your throne forever.”

13
For the Lord has chosen Zion;
He has desired it for His habitation.
14
“This is My resting place forever;
Here I will dwell, for I have desired it.
15
“I will abundantly bless her provision;
I will satisfy her needy with bread.
16
“Her priests also I will clothe with salvation,
And her godly ones will sing aloud for joy.
17
“There I will cause the horn of David to spring forth;
I have prepared a lamp for Mine anointed.
18
“His enemies I will clothe with shame,
But upon himself his crown shall shine.”

Psalm 139

Psalm 139

God’s Omnipresence and Omniscience.

For the choir director. A Psalm of David.

139 O Lord, You have searched me and known me.
2 You know when I sit down and when I rise up;
You understand my thought from afar.
3 You scrutinize my path and my lying down,
And are intimately acquainted with all my ways.
4 Even before there is a word on my tongue,
Behold, O Lord, You know it all.
5 You have enclosed me behind and before,
And laid Your hand upon me.
6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me;
It is too high, I cannot attain to it.
7 Where can I go from Your Spirit?
Or where can I flee from Your presence?
8 If I ascend to heaven, You are there;
If I make my bed in Sheol, behold, You are there.
9 If I take the wings of the dawn,
If I dwell in the remotest part of the sea,
10 Even there Your hand will lead me,
And Your right hand will lay hold of me.
11 If I say, “Surely the darkness will overwhelm me,
And the light around me will be night,”
12 Even the darkness is not dark to You,
And the night is as bright as the day.
Darkness and light are alike to You.
13 For You formed my inward parts;
You wove me in my mother’s womb.
14 I will give thanks to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
Wonderful are Your works,
And my soul knows it very well.
15 My frame was not hidden from You,
When I was made in secret,
And skillfully wrought in the depths of the earth;
16 Your eyes have seen my unformed substance;
And in Your book were all written
The days that were ordained for me,
When as yet there was not one of them.
17 How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God!
How vast is the sum of them!
18 If I should count them, they would outnumber the sand.
When I awake, I am still with You.
19 O that You would slay the wicked, O God;
Depart from me, therefore, men of bloodshed.
20 For they speak against You wickedly,
And Your enemies take Your name in vain
.
21 Do I not hate those who hate You, O Lord?
And do I not loathe those who rise up against You?
22 I hate them with the utmost hatred;
They have become my enemies.
23 Search me, O God, and know my heart;
Try me and know my anxious thoughts;
24 And see if there be any hurtful way in me,
And lead me in the everlasting way.

Revelation 16 God’s wrath

Six Bowls of Wrath

16 Then I heard a loud voice from the temple, saying to the seven angels, “Go and pour out on the earth the seven bowls of the wrath of God.”

2 So the first angel went and poured out his bowl on the earth; and it became a loathsome and malignant sore on the people who had the mark of the beast and who worshiped his image.

3 The second angel poured out his bowl into the sea, and it became blood like that of a dead man; and every living thing in the sea died.

4 Then the third angel poured out his bowl into the rivers and the springs of waters; and they became blood. 5 And I heard the angel of the waters saying, “Righteous are You, who are and who were, O Holy One, because You judged these things; 6 for they poured out the blood of saints and prophets, and You have given them blood to drink. They deserve it.” 7 And I heard the altar saying, “Yes, O Lord God, the Almighty, true and righteous are Your judgments.”

8 The fourth angel poured out his bowl upon the sun, and it was given to it to scorch men with fire. 9 Men were scorched with fierce heat; and they blasphemed the name of God who has the power over these plagues, and they did not repent so as to give Him glory.

10 Then the fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and his kingdom became darkened; and they gnawed their tongues because of pain, 11 and they blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores; and they did not repent of their deeds.

12 The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river, the Euphrates; and its water was dried up, so that the way would be prepared for the kings from the east.

Armageddon

13 And I saw coming out of the mouth of the dragon and out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits like frogs; 14 for they are spirits of demons, performing signs, which go out to the kings of the whole world, to gather them together for the war of the great day of God, the Almighty. 15 (“Behold, I am coming like a thief. Blessed is the one who stays awake and keeps his clothes, so that he will not walk about naked and men will not see his shame.”) 16 And they gathered them together to the place which in Hebrew is called Har-Magedon.

Seventh Bowl of Wrath
17 Then the seventh angel poured out his bowl upon the air, and a loud voice came out of the temple from the throne, saying, “It is done.” 18 And there were flashes of lightning and sounds and peals of thunder; and there was a great earthquake, such as there had not been since man came to be upon the earth, so great an earthquake was it, and so mighty. 19 The great city was split into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. Babylon the great was remembered before God, to give her the cup of the wine of His fierce wrath. 20 And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found. 21 And huge hailstones, about one hundred pounds each, *came down from heaven upon men; and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail, because its plague *was extremely severe.
