Psalm 100
A Psalm of thanksgiving.
{100:1} Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all you lands!
{100:2} Serve the LORD with gladness.
Come before his presence with singing.
{100:3} Know that the LORD, he is God.
It is he who has made us, and we are his.
We are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.
{100:4} Enter into his gates with thanksgiving,
Into his courts with praise.
Give thanks to him, and bless his name.
{100:5} For the LORD is good.
His lovingkindness endures forever,
His faithfulness to all generations.
Psalm 101
A Psalm by David.
{101:1} I will sing of lovingkindness and justice.
To you, LORD, I will sing praises.
{101:2} I will be careful to live a blameless life.
When will you come to me?
I will walk within my house with a blameless heart.
{101:3} I will set no vile thing before my eyes.
I hate the deeds of faithless men.
They will not cling to me.
{101:4} A perverse heart will be far from me.
I will have nothing to do with evil.
{101:5} I will silence whoever secretly slanders his neighbor.
I won't tolerate one who is haughty and conceited.
{101:6} My eyes will be on the faithful of the land,
That they may dwell with me.
He who walks in a perfect way,
He will serve me.
{101:7} He who practices deceit won't dwell within my house.
He who speaks falsehood won't be established before my eyes.
{101:8} Morning by morning, I will destroy all the wicked of the land;
To cut off all the workers of iniquity from the LORD's city.
Psalm 102
A Prayer of the afflicted, when he is overwhelmed and pours out his
complaint before the LORD.
{102:1} Hear my prayer, LORD!
Let my cry come to you.
{102:2} Don't hide your face from me in the day of my distress.
Turn your ear to me.
Answer me quickly in the day when I call.
{102:3} For my days consume away like smoke.
My bones are burned as a firebrand.
{102:4} My heart is blighted like grass, and withered,
For I forget to eat my bread.
{102:5} By reason of the voice of my groaning,
My bones stick to my skin.
{102:6} I am like a pelican of the wilderness.
I have become as an owl of the waste places.
{102:7} I watch, and have become like a sparrow that is alone on the
housetop.
{102:8} My enemies reproach me all day.
Those who are mad at me use my name as a curse.
{102:9} For I have eaten ashes like bread,
And mixed my drink with tears,
{102:10} Because of your indignation and your wrath,
For you have taken me up, and thrown me away.
{102:11} My days are like a long shadow.
I have withered like grass.
{102:12} But you, LORD, will abide forever;
Your renown endures to all generations.
{102:13} You will arise and have mercy on Tziyon;
For it is time to have pity on her.
Yes, the set time has come.
{102:14} For your servants take pleasure in her stones,
And have pity on her dust.
{102:15} So the nations will fear the name of the LORD;
All the kings of the [1>]eretz[<1] your glory.
{102:16} For the LORD has built up Tziyon.
He has appeared in his glory.
{102:17} He has responded to the prayer of the destitute,
And has not despised their prayer.
{102:18} This will be written for the generation to come.
A people which will be created will praise the LORD.
{102:19} For he has looked down from the height of his sanctuary.
From heaven, the LORD saw the [2>]eretz[<2];
{102:20} To hear the groans of the prisoner;
To free those who are condemned to death;
{102:21} That men may declare the name of the LORD in Tziyon,
And his praise in Yerushalayim;
{102:22} When the peoples are gathered together,
The kingdoms, to serve the LORD.
{102:23} He weakened my strength along the course.
He shortened my days.
{102:24} I said, "My God, don't take me away in the midst of my days.
Your years are throughout all generations.
{102:25} Of old, you laid the foundation of the [3>]eretz[<3].
The heavens are the work of your hands.
{102:26} They will perish, but you will endure.
Yes, all of them will wear out like a garment.
You will change them like a cloak, and they will be changed.
{102:27} But you are the same.
Your years will have no end.
{102:28} The children of your servants will continue.
Their seed will be established before you."
