Psalm 16

New International Version


Psalm 16

A miktam[a] of David.
1
Keep me safe, my God,
for in you I take refuge.
2
I say to the LORD, “You are my Lord;
apart from you I have no good thing.”
3
As for the saints who are in the land,
“They are the glorious ones in whom is all my delight.”
4
The sorrows of those will increase who run after other gods.
I will not pour out their libations of blood
or take up their names on my lips.
5
LORD, you have assigned me my portion and my cup;
you have made my lot secure.
6
The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;
surely I have a delightful inheritance.
7
I will praise the LORD, who counsels me;
even at night my heart instructs me.
8
I have set the LORD always before me.
Because he is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.
9
Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices;
my body also will rest secure,
10
because you will not abandon me to the grave,
nor will you let your Holy One[b] one see decay.
11
You have made known to me the path of life;
you will fill me with joy in your presence,
with eternal pleasures at your right hand.
Psalm 26
New International Version
Psalm 26

Of David.
1
Vindicate me, LORD,
for I have led a blameless life;
I have trusted in the LORD
without wavering.
2
Test me, O LORD, and try me,
examine my heart and my mind;
3
for your love is ever before me,
and I walk continually in your truth.
4
I do not sit with deceitful men,
nor do I consort with hypocrites.
5
I abhor the assembly of evildoers
and refuse to sit with the wicked.
6
I wash my hands in innocence,
and go about your altar, O LORD,
7
proclaiming aloud your praise
and telling of all your wonderful deeds.
8
I love the house where you live, O LORD,
the place where your glory dwells.
9
Do not take away my soul along with sinners,
my life with bloodthirsty men,
10
in whose hands are wicked schemes,
whose right hands are full of bribes.
11
But I lead a blameless life;
redeem me and be merciful to me.
12
My feet stand on level ground;
in the great assembly I will praise the LORD.
Psalm 64
New International Version
Psalm 64[a]

For the director of music. A psalm of David.


1
Hear me, O God, as I voice my complaint;
protect my life from the threat of the enemy.
2
Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked,
from that noisy crowd of evildoers.
3
They sharpen their tongues like swords
and aim their words like deadly arrows.
4
They shoot from ambush at the innocent man;
they shoot at him suddenly, without fear.
5
They encourage each other in evil plans,
they talk about hiding their snares;
they say, “Who will see them[b]?”
6
They plot injustice and say,
“We have devised a perfect plan!”
Surely the mind and heart of man are cunning.
7
But God will shoot them with arrows;
suddenly they will be struck down.
8
He will turn their own tongues against them
and bring them to ruin;
all who see them will shake their heads in scorn.
9
All mankind will fear;
they will proclaim the works of God
and ponder what he has done.
10
Let the righteous will rejoice in the LORD
and take refuge in him;
let all the upright in heart praise him!
Psalm 95
New International Version
Psalm 95
1
Come, let us sing for joy to the LORD;
let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation.
2
Let us come before him with thanksgiving
and extol him with music and song.
3
For the LORD is the great God,
the great King above all gods.
4
In his hand are the depths of the earth,
and the mountain peaks belong to him.
5
The sea is his, for he made it,
and his hands formed the dry land.
6
Come, let us bow down in worship,
let us kneel before the LORD our Maker;
7
for he is our God
and we are the people of his pasture,
the flock under his care.

Today, if you hear his voice,


8
“Do not harden your hearts as you did at Meribah,[a]
as you did that day at Massah[b] in the desert,
9
where your fathers tested and tried me;
though they had seen what I did.
10
For forty years I was angry with that generation;
I said, ‘They are a people whose hearts go astray,
and they have not known my ways.’
11
So I declared on oath in my anger,
‘They shall never enter my rest.’”
Psalm 32 New International Version
Psalm 32 Of David. A maskil.[a]
1
Blessed is the one
whose transgressions are forgiven,
whose sins are covered.
2
Blessed is the man
whose sin the LORD does not count against him
and in whose spirit is no deceit.
3
When I kept silent,
my bones wasted away
through my groaning all day long.
4
For day and night
your hand was heavy upon me;
my strength was sapped
as in the heat of summer.[b]
5
Then I acknowledged my sin to you
and did not cover up my iniquity.
I said, “I will confess
my transgressions to the LORD.”
And you forgave
the guilt of my sin.
6
Therefore let everyone who is godly pray to you
while you may be found;
surely when the mighty waters rise,
they will not reach him.
7
You are my hiding place;
you will protect me from trouble
and surround me with songs of deliverance.
8
I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;
I will counsel you and watch over you.
9
Do not be like the horse or the mule,
which have no understanding
but must be controlled by bit and bridle
or they will not come to you.
10
Many are the woes of the wicked,
but the LORD’s unfailing love
surrounds the man who trusts in him.
11
Rejoice in the LORD and be glad, you righteous;
sing, all you who are upright in heart!
