[90:1] Lord, you have been our dwelling place for all generations. [90:2] Before the mountains were brought forth, before you had formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, you are God. [90:3] You turn man to destruction, saying, "Return, you children of men." [90:4] For a thousand years in your sight are just like yesterday when it is past, like a watch in the night. [90:5] You sweep them away as they sleep. In the morning they sprout like new grass. [90:6] In the morning it sprouts and springs up. By evening, it is withered and dry. [90:7] For we are consumed in your anger. We are troubled in your wrath. [90:8] You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your presence. [90:9] For all our days have passed away in your wrath. We bring our years to an end as a sigh. [90:10] The days of our years are seventy, or even by reason of strength eighty years; yet their pride is but labor and sorrow, for it passes quickly, and we fly away. [90:11] Who knows the power of your anger, your wrath according to the fear that is due to you? [90:12] So teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom. [90:13] Relent, Yahweh! How long? Have compassion on your servants! [90:14] Satisfy us in the morning with your loving kindness, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days. [90:15] Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us, for as many years as we have seen evil. [90:16] Let your work appear to your servants; your glory to their children. [90:17] Let the favor of the Lord our God be on us; establish the work of our hands for us; yes, establish the work of our hands.
Psalm 91
[91:1] He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. [91:2] I will say of Yahweh, "He is my refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust." [91:3] For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the deadly pestilence. [91:4] He will cover you with his feathers. Under his wings you will take refuge. His faithfulness is your shield and rampart. [91:5] You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day; [91:6] nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, nor of the destruction that wastes at noonday. [91:7] A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it will not come near you. [91:8] You will only look with your eyes, and see the recompense of the wicked. [91:9] Because you have made Yahweh your refuge, and the Most High your dwelling place, [91:10] no evil shall happen to you, neither shall any plague come near your dwelling. [91:11] For he will put his angels in charge of you, to guard you in all your ways. [91:12] They will bear you up in their hands, so that you won't dash your foot against a stone. [91:13] You will tread on the lion and cobra. You will trample the young lion and the serpent underfoot. [91:14] "Because he has set his love on me, therefore I will deliver him. I will set him on high, because he has known my name. [91:15] He will call on me, and I will answer him. I will be with him in trouble. I will deliver him, and honor him. [91:16] I will satisfy him with long life, and show him my salvation."
Psalm 92
A Psalm. A song for the Sabbath day.
[92:1] It is a good thing to give thanks to Yahweh, to sing praises to your name, Most High; [92:2] to proclaim your loving kindness in the morning, and your faithfulness every night, [92:3] with the ten-stringed lute, with the harp, and with the melody of the lyre. [92:4] For you, Yahweh, have made me glad through your work. I will triumph in the works of your hands. [92:5] How great are your works, Yahweh! Your thoughts are very deep. [92:6] A senseless man doesn't know, neither does a fool understand this: [92:7] though the wicked spring up as the grass, and all the evil-doers flourish, they will be destroyed forever. [92:8] But you, Yahweh, are on high forevermore. [92:9] For, behold, your enemies, Yahweh, for, behold, your enemies shall perish. All the evil-doers will be scattered. [92:10] But you have exalted my horn like that of the wild ox. I am anointed with fresh oil. [92:11] My eye has also seen my enemies. My ears have heard of the wicked enemies who rise up against me. [92:12] The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree. He will grow like a cedar in Lebanon. [92:13] They are planted in Yahweh's house. They will flourish in our God's courts. [92:14] They will still bring forth fruit in old age. They will be full of sap and green, [92:15] to show that Yahweh is upright. He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
Psalm 93
[93:1] Yahweh reigns! He is clothed with majesty! Yahweh is armed with strength. The world also is established. It can't be moved. [93:2] Your throne is established from long ago. You are from everlasting. [93:3] The floods have lifted up, Yahweh, the floods have lifted up their voice. The floods lift up their waves. [93:4] Above the voices of many waters, the mighty breakers of the sea, Yahweh on high is mighty. [93:5] Your statutes stand firm. Holiness adorns your house, Yahweh, forevermore.
Psalm 94
[94:1] Yahweh, you God to whom vengeance belongs, you God to whom vengeance belongs, shine forth. [94:2] Rise up, you judge of the earth. Pay back the proud what they deserve. [94:3] Yahweh, how long will the wicked, how long will the wicked triumph? [94:4] They pour out arrogant words. All the evil-doers boast. [94:5] They break your people in pieces, Yahweh, and afflict your heritage. [94:6] They kill the widow and the alien, and murder the fatherless. [94:7] They say, "Yah will not see, neither will Jacob's God consider." [94:8] Consider, you senseless among the people; you fools, when will you be wise? [94:9] He who implanted the ear, won't he hear? He who formed the eye, won't he see? [94:10] He who disciplines the nations, won't he punish? He who teaches man knows. [94:11] Yahweh knows the thoughts of man, that they are futile. [94:12] Blessed is the man whom you discipline, Yah, and teach out of your law; [94:13] that you may give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit is dug for the wicked. [94:14] For Yahweh won't reject his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance. [94:15] For judgment will return to righteousness. All the upright in heart shall follow it. [94:16] Who will rise up for me against the wicked? Who will stand up for me against the evil-doers? [94:17] Unless Yahweh had been my help, my soul would have soon lived in silence. [94:18] When I said, "My foot is slipping!" Your loving kindness, Yahweh, held me up. [94:19] In the multitude of my thoughts within me, your comforts delight my soul. [94:20] Shall the throne of wickedness have fellowship with you, which brings about mischief by statute? [94:21] They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood. [94:22] But Yahweh has been my high tower, my God, the rock of my refuge. [94:23] He has brought on them their own iniquity, and will cut them off in their own wickedness. Yahweh, our God, will cut them off.
