Psalm 116:1-19 Book# 5 of Psalms

 

Psalm 116:1-19           Book# 5 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

I love the Lord, because He has heard my voice & my [requests.] Because He has [leaned] His ear to me. Therefore, I will call upon Him as long as I live. The sorrows of death [surrounded] me & the pains of hell [got] hold upon me: I found trouble & sorrow.

Then, I called upon the Name of the Lord; O Lord, I [beg] You, deliver my soul. The Lord is gracious & righteous. [Yes,] our God is merciful. The Lord [protects] the simple [minded.] I was brought low & He [saved] me. O my soul, return to your rest; for the Lord has dealt bountifully with you.

[Isaiah 55:6-8 See you the Lord, while He may be found & you call upon Him while He is near. Let the wicked [abandon] his [ways] & the unrighteous man, his thoughts.

And let him return to the Lord & to our God & He will have mercy upon him; For He will abundantly pardon. For My thoughts are not your thoughts & neither are your ways, My ways, says the Lord.]

For You have delivered my soul from death, [my] eyes from tears & my feet from falling. I will walk before the Lord, in the land of the living. [*Psalm 27:12-14 [Don't] deliver Me over to the will of [My] enemies: for false witnesses & [those who] breathe out [cruelties have] risen up against Me.

I [would have] fainted, [except] I had believed, to see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait on the Lord & be of good courage & He shall strengthen your heart. I say, wait on the Lord.]

I was greatly afflicted & I believed. Therefore, I have spoken. I said in my haste, All men are liars. [Psalm 31:22 For in my [hurry,] I am cut off from before Your eyes. [Still,] You heard the [sound] of my [prayers] when I cried [out] to You.]

What shall I [give] to the Lord for all His benefits toward me? I will take the cup of Salvation & call upon the Name of the Lord. [2 Corinthians 6:2 (For He says, I have heard you in [an] acceptable time & [on] the day of Salvation I have [helped] you. [Look,] now is the [acceptable] time. [See,] now is the day of Salvation.)]

I will pay my vows to the Lord now in the presence of all His people. Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints. [Revelation 20:4-6 And I saw thrones & [those who] sat upon them & [authority to judge] was given to them.

And I saw the souls of [those who] were beheaded for the witness of Jesus & for the Word of God & [who] had not worshiped the Beast & his image & neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands. And they lived & [ruled] with Christ 1,000 years.

But the rest of the dead [didn't] live again until the 1,000 years were finished. This is the 1st resurrection. Blessed & holy is he [who has] part in the 1st resurrection. On such, the 2nd death has no power, but they shall be priests of God & of Christ & shall [rule] with Him 1,000 years.]

O Lord, truly I am Your servant. I am Your servant & the son of Your handmaid & You [have loosened] my bonds. [Isaiah 42:6-8 I, the Lord, have called You in righteousness & will hold Your hand & will keep You & give You for a covenant [contract for] this people, for a Light of the Gentiles;

* To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison & [those who] sit in darkness out of the [prisons.] I AM the Lord. That is My Name. And I won't give My glory to another & neither My praise to [carved] images.]

I will offer to You the sacrifice of Thanksgiving & will call upon the Name of the Lord. I will pay my vows to the Lord now in the presence of all His people, in the [courtyards] of the Lord's house, in the midst of You, O Jerusalem. Praise you the Lord.

Psalm 115:1-18 Book# 5 of Psalms

 

Psalm 115:1-18            Book# 5 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

Not unto us, O Lord. But give glory unto to Your Name, for Your mercy & Your truth's sake & not unto us. [Why] should the heathen say, Where is their God now?

[Psalm 42:9-10 I will say to God, my Rock, Why [have] You forgotten me? Why [do] I go on mourning, because of the oppression of the enemy? My enemies [mock] me [piercing, like] with a sword, while they say daily to me, Where is your God?]

But our God is in the heavens. He has done [whatever] He [desires.]  [1 Chronicles 16:24-26 Declare His glory among the heathen & His marvelous works among all nations. For the Lord is great & to be praised [abundantly.] He also is to be feared [respected] above all gods. For all the gods of the people are idols. But the Lord made the heavens.]

Their idols are silver & gold. The work of men's hands. They have mouths, but they [don't] speak. They have eyes, but they [don't] see. They have ears, but they [don't] hear. They have noses, but they [don't] smell. They have hands, but they [don't touch.] They have feet, but they [don't] walk.  Neither do they speak through their throat.

[Those who] make them are [similar] to them. So is everyone who trusts in them. O Israel, you, trust in the Lord. He is their help & their shield. O house of Aaron, trust in the Lord. He is their help & their shield. You, [who] fear [respect] the Lord, trust in the Lord. He is their help & their shield.

The Lord has been mindful of us & He will bless us. He will bless the house of Israel & He will bless the house of Aaron. He will bless [those who] fear [respect] the Lord, both [the powerless & the powerful.] The Lord shall increase you & your children more & more.

[Genesis 35:11-12 God said to [Jacob, a.k.a. Israel,] I am God Almighty. Be fruitful & multiply. A nation & a company of nations shall [come from] you & kings shall come [from your body.] The land which I gave Abraham & Isaac, I will give it to you & I will give the land to your [descendants] after you.]

You are blessed of the Lord, [Who] made heaven & earth. The heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord's; but He has given the earth to the children of men. The dead [don't] praise the Lord & neither [do] any [who] go down into silence.

[Isaiah 38:18 For the grave can't praise You & death can't celebrate You & [those who] go down into the pit, can't hope for Your Truth.] But we will bless the Lord from this time [forward] & forever more. Praise the Lord.

Psalm 114:1-8 Book# 5 of Psalms

 

Psalm 114:1-8            Book# 5 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

When Israel, the house of Jacob, went out of Egypt, from a people of strange language. Judah was His sanctuary & Israel, His [kingdom.] [Exodus 3:3-6 And Moses said to the people, Remember this day, in which you came out from Egypt, out of the house of bondage. By the strength of the [Lord's] hand, you [were] brought out from this place. There shall be no leaven bread eaten.

This day, you came out in the month Abib. And it shall [happen,] when the Lord shall bring you into the land of the: Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Hivites & Jebusites, which He [swore] to your [forefathers] to give to you, a land flowing with milk & honey, [so] you shall keep this service in this month. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread & [on] the seventh day, shall be a feast to the Lord.]

The sea saw it & fled & Jordan was driven back. [Exodus 14:21-22 And Moses stretched out his hand over the [Red] Sea & the Lord caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night & made the sea dry land & the waters were divided. And the children [people] of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground. And the waters were a wall to them on their right hand & on their left.]

The mountains skipped like rams & the little hills like lambs. What ailed you, O you sea, that you fled? You Jordan [River,] that you were driven back? You mounts, that you skipped like rams & you little hills, like lambs?

You earth, tremble, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob, [a.k.a. Israel, Who] turned the rock into a standing water & the flint into a fountain of waters.

[Exodus 17:6 [Watch,] I will stand before you there upon the rock in Horeb, [a.k.a. Sinai,] & you shall [strike] the rock & water shall come out of it there, [so] the people may drink. And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel.]

Psalm 113:1-9 Book# 5 of Psalms

 

Psalm 113:1-9            Book# 5 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

Praise you the Name of the Lord, O you servants of the Lord. Praise you the Lord. Blessed [is] the Name of the Lord, from this time [forward] & forever more. From [sunrise to sunset,] the Name of the Lord is to be praised. The Lord is high above all nations & His glory [is] above the heavens.

[Psalm 8:1-5 O Lord, our Lord, how excellent is Your Name in all the earth! Who has [put] Your glory above the heavens. Out of the mouth of babes & [the nursing,] You have ordained strength, because of Your enemies, [so] You might [calm] the enemy & the avenger.

When I [think of] Your heavens & the work of Your fingers, the moon & the stars, [that] You [established;] What is man, that You are mindful of him? And the son of man, that You visited him? For You [have] made him a little lower than the Angels & have crowned Him with glory & honor.]

Who is [similar] to the Lord our God, Who dwells on high & Who humbles Himself to [see] the things that are in heaven & in the earth! He raises up the poor out of the [dirt] & lifts the needy out of the [garbage heap, so] He may [put] him with princes, even the princes of His people.

[1 Samuel 2:7-8 The Lord makes [the] poor & rich. He brings low & He lifts up. He raises up the poor out of the [dirt] & lifts up the beggar from the [garbage heap,] to [put] them among princes & to make them inherit the throne of glory. For the pillars of the earth are the Lord's & He has [put] the world upon them.]

He makes the [childless] woman to keep house & to be a joyful mother of children. Praise you the Lord. [1 Samuel 1:20-22 [For this reason] it [happened,] when the time [had] come, after Hannah had conceived, that she [bore] a son & called his name, Samuel, saying, Because I have asked [for] him [from] the Lord.

And the [father,] Elkanah & all his [household,] went up to offer to the Lord the yearly sacrifice & his vow. But Hannah [didn't] go up; for she said to her husband, I won't go up until the child [is] weaned & then I will bring him, [so] that he may appear before the Lord & [stay] there forever.]

Psalm 112:1-10 Book# 5 of Psalms

 

Psalm 112:1-10            Book# 5 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

Blessed is the man, [who] fears [respects] the Lord & delights greatly in His commandments. Praise you the Lord. [The man’s descendants] shall be mighty upon the earth. The generation of the upright shall be blessed. Wealth & riches shall be in his house & his righteousness endures forever.

[Matthew 6:33 Therefore, take no thought for [tomorrow:] for [tomorrow] shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient to the day is [its trouble.]

Light has arisen there in the darkness [for] the upright. He is gracious & full of compassion & [is] righteous. [Luke 1:78-79 Through the tender mercy of our God: [by which] the Dayspring from on high has visited us, *To give Light to [those who] sit in darkness & in the shadow of death & to guide our feet into the [path] of peace.]

A good man [declares] favor & lends. He will guide his affairs with discretion. [Lule 6:34-35 And if you lend to [those] whom you hope to receive, what [praise] do you have?

For sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again. But you, love your enemies & do good & lend, hoping for nothing again. And your reward shall be great & you shall be the children of the Highest: for He is kind to the unthankful & to the [wicked.]

Surely, he won't be [removed] forever. The righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance. [Proverbs 10:7 For the memory of the just is blessed: but the name of the wicked shall rot.]

He shall not be afraid of evil [news] & his heart is [steadfast,] trusting in the Lord. His heart is established & he shall not be afraid, until he [sees] his desire upon his enemies.

He has [distributed] & he has given to the poor. His righteousness endures forever. His horn shall be exalted with honor. The wicked shall see it & be grieved. [The wicked] shall gnash with his teeth & melt away. The desire of the wicked shall perish.

Psalm 111:1-10 Book# 5 of Psalms

 

Psalm 111:1-10            Book# 5 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

I will praise the Lord in the assembly of the upright & in the congregation. Praise you the Lord. The works of the Lord are great & [are] all sought out, [by those who] have pleasure [in them.]

[Psalm 104:13-14 He waters the hills from His chambers. The earth is satisfied with the fruit of Your works. He causes the grass to grow for the cattle & herb for the service of man, [so] that He may [produce] food out of the earth.]

His work is honorable & glorious & His righteousness endures forever. The Lord is gracious & full of compassion & He has made His wonderful works to be remembered.

He has given [food] to [those who] fear [respect] Him. He will [always] be mindful of His covenant [contract.] He has [shown] His people the power of His works, [so] that He may give them the [inheritance from the land] of the heathen.

[Joshua 24:11-14 And you went over [the] Jordan [River] & came into Jericho. And the men of Jericho fought against you & the: Amorites, Perizzites, Canaanites, Hittites, Girgashites, Hivites & the Jebusites. And I delivered them into your hand.

And I sent the [hornets in front of] you, which [drove] them out from before you. Even the 2 kings of the Amorites, but not with your sword, nor with your bow. And I have given you a land, for which you didn't [work] & cities, [that] you [didn't] build & you [live] in them.

[And] you eat [from] vineyards & [olive groves,] which you [didn't plant.] Therefore, now fear [respect] the Lord & serve Him in sincerity & in truth. And put away the gods [that] your [forefathers] served [before] the flood & in Egypt & serve the Lord.]

[Truth & Justice] are the works of His hands. All His commandments are [beyond any doubt.] [Revelation 15:3 And they [sang] the song of Moses, [God's] servant & the song of the Lamb, saying, Great & marvelous are Your works, Lord God Almighty. Just & True are Your ways, You King of saints.]

They are [accomplished] in truth & [honesty] & they stand [secure] forever & ever. [Matthew 5:18 For [truly] I say to you, [Until] heaven & earth pass, [not] one jot or one tittle shall pass from the law, [until] all [are] fulfilled.]

His Name is holy & [revered.] He sent redemption to His people & He has commanded His covenant forever. [Luke 1:68-72 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for He has visited & redeemed His people & has raised up a horn of Salvation for us, in the house of His servant, David.

[So,] that we [could] be saved from our enemies & from the [hands] of all [who] hate us & to [accomplish] the mercy promised to our [forefathers] & to remember His Holy Covenant.]

All [those who] have a good understanding, do His commandments. The fear [respect] of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. [Proverbs 1:7 The fear [respect] of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom & instruction.] His praise endures forever.

Psalm 110:1-7 Book# 5 of Psalms

 

A Psalm of David.

Psalm 110:1-7            Book# 5 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

*The Lord said unto my Lord, You sit at My right hand, until I make Your enemies, Your footstool. [*Acts 2:33-36 Therefore, being exalted & by the right hand of God & having received [from] the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, [a.k.a. Holy Spirit,] He has [poured] this [out, what] you now see & hear.

*For David [has] not ascended into the heavens: but he, [said] himself, the Lord said unto my Lord, You sit on My right hand, until I make Your foes, Your footstool. Therefore, let all the house of Israel know [without a doubt,] that God has made that same Jesus, Whom you have crucified, both Lord & Christ.]

The Lord shall send the rod of your strength out of Zion. You [shall]  rule in the midst of your enemies. [Romans 11:26-28 *And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion, [a.k.a Zion,] the Deliverer & shall turn away the ungodliness from Jacob.

For this is My covenant [contract to them, when I shall take away their sins. As [related] to the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but [concerning] the [selected,] they are beloved for their [forefather's] sakes.]

Your people shall be willing [on] the day of Your [strength,] in the [beauty] of holiness. [Psalm 29:2 Give to the Lord the glory due to His Name. Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.] You have the dew of Your youth: from the [birth] of morning.

[Genesis 1:3-5 And God said, Let there be light & there was light. And God saw the light & that it was good. And God divided the light from the darkness. And God called the light, Day & the darkness, He called, Night. And the evening & the morning were the first day.]

*The Lord has sworn & won't [break His vow,] You are a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek, [a.k.a. Melchisedec.]

[Hebrews 5:4-6 And no man takes this honor [on] himself, but He [Who] is called [by] God, [like] Aaron was. So, Christ [didn't] also glorify Himself to be made a high priest; but He, [Who] said to Him, You are My Son, today I have begotten You. As He also said in another place, You are a priest forever, after the order of Melchisedec.]

The Lord at Your right hand, shall strike [down] the kings [on] the day of His wrath. [Revelation 6:15-17 And the kings of the earth, great men, rich men, chief [officers,] mighty men & every [man bound] & every free man, hid themselves in the dens & in the rocks of the mountains;

And said to the mountains & rocks, Fall on us & hide us from the face of Him, [Who] sits on the throne & from the wrath of the Lamb: For the great day of His wrath [has] come & who shall be able to stand?]

He shall judge among the heathen. He shall fill the places with the dead bodies & He shall wound [those who are] heads over many countries. He shall drink [from] the brook [by] the [road.] Therefore, he shall lift up the head.

[Psalm 27:6 And now, [my] head shall be lifted up above [my] enemies [around] me. Therefore, I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle. I will sing, [yes,] I will sing praises unto the Lord.]
