The Psalms, starting at chapter 94
Psalm 94
{94:1} LORD, 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} LORD, 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, LORD,
and afflict your heritage.
{94:6} They kill the widow and the alien,
and murder the fatherless.
{94:7} They say, "The LORD 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} The LORD knows the thoughts of man,
that they are futile.
{94:12} Blessed is the man whom you discipline, LORD,
and teach out of your Torah;
{94:13} that you may give him rest from the days of adversity,
until the pit is dug for the wicked.
{94:14} For the LORD 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 the LORD had been my help,
my soul would have soon lived in silence.
{94:18} When I said, "My foot is slipping!"
Your loving kindness, LORD, 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 the LORD 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.
The LORD, our God, will cut them off.
Psalm 95
{95:1} Oh come, let's sing to the LORD.
Let's shout aloud to the rock of our salvation!
{95:2} Let's come before his presence with thanksgiving.
Let's extol him with songs!
{95:3} For the LORD is a great God,
a great King above all gods.
{95:4} In his hand are the deep places of the earth.
The heights of the mountains are also his.
{95:5} The sea is his, and he made it.
His hands formed the dry land.
{95:6} Oh come, let's worship and bow down.
Let's kneel before the LORD, our Maker,
{95:7} for he is our God.
We are the people of his pasture,
and the sheep in his care.
Today, oh that you would hear his voice!
{95:8} Don't harden your heart, as at Meribah,
as in the day of Massah in the wilderness,
{95:9} when your fathers tempted me,
tested me, and saw my work.
{95:10} Forty long years I was grieved with that generation,
and said, "It is a people that errs in their heart.
They have not known my ways."
{95:11} Therefore I swore in my wrath,
"They won't enter into my rest."
Psalm 96
{96:1} Sing to the LORD a new song!
Sing to the LORD, all the earth.
{96:2} Sing to the LORD!
Bless his name!
Proclaim his salvation from day to day!
{96:3} Declare his glory among the nations,
his marvelous works among all the peoples.
{96:4} For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised!
He is to be feared above all gods.
{96:5} For all the gods of the peoples are idols,
but the LORD made the heavens.
{96:6} Honor and majesty are before him.
Strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
{96:7} Ascribe to the LORD, you families of nations,
ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.
{96:8} Ascribe to the LORD the glory due to his name.
Bring an offering, and come into his courts.
{96:9} Worship the LORD in holy array.
Tremble before him, all the earth.
{96:10} Say among the nations, "The LORD reigns."
The world is also established.
It can't be moved.
He will judge the peoples with equity.
{96:11} Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice.
Let the sea roar, and its fullness!
{96:12} Let the field and all that is in it exult!
Then all the trees of the woods shall sing for joy
{96:13} before the LORD; for he comes,
for he comes to judge the earth.
He will judge the world with righteousness,
the peoples with his truth.
