Psalms 16

You Will Not Abandon My Soul

A ^jMiktam ^{▼▼Probably a musical or liturgical term} of David.

1 Preserve me, O God, for in you I ^ltake refuge.
2 I say to the Lord, “You are my Lord;
^mI have no good apart from you.”
3 As for ⁿthe saints in the land, they are the excellent ones,
in whom is all my delight. ^{▼▼Or To the saints in the land, the excellent in whom is all my delight, I say:}
4 The sorrows of those who run after ^{▼▼Or who acquire} another god shall multiply;
their drink offerings of blood I will not pour out
or ^qtake their names on my lips.
5 The Lord is ^rmy chosen portion and my ^scup;
you hold my ^tlot.
6 ^uThe lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;
indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance.
7 I bless the Lord who ^vgives me counsel;
in ^wthe night also my ^xheart instructs me. ^{▼▼Hebrew my kidneys instruct me}
8 ^zI have ^aaset the Lord always before me;
because he is at my ^abright hand, I shall not be ^acshaken.
9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my ^adwhole being ^{▼▼Hebrew my glory} rejoices;
my flesh also dwells secure.
10 For you will not abandon my soul to ^afSheol,
^agor let your ^ahholy one see ^aicorruption. ^{▼▼Or see the pit}
11 You make known to me ^akthe path of life;
in your presence there is ^alfullness of joy;
at your right hand are ^ampleasures forevermore.

Psalms 22

Why Have You Forsaken Me?

To the choirmaster: according to The Doe of the Dawn. A Psalm of David.

1 ^anMy God, my God, why have you forsaken me?
Why are you so ^aofar from saving me, from the words of my ^apgroaning?
2 O my God, I cry by ^aqday, but you do not answer,
and by night, but I find no rest.
3 Yet you are ^arholy,
^asenthroned on ^atthe praises ^{▼▼Or dwelling in the praises} of Israel.
4 In you our fathers trusted;
they trusted, and you delivered them.
5 To you they ^avcried and were rescued;
in you they ^awtrusted and were not put to shame.
6 But I am ^axa worm and not a man,
^ayscorned by mankind and ^azdespised by the people.
7 All who see me ^bamock me;
they make mouths at me; they ^bbwag their heads;
8 ^bc“He trusts in the Lord; let him ^bddeliver him;
let him rescue him, for he ^bedelights in him!”
9 Yet you are he who ^bftook me from the womb;
you made me trust you at my mother’s breasts.
10 On you was I cast from my birth,
and from ^bgmy mother’s womb you have been my God.
11 Be not ^bhfar from me,
for trouble is near,
and there is ^binone to help.
12 Many bulls encompass me;
^bjstrong bulls of ^bkBashan surround me;
13 they ^blopen wide their mouths at me,
like a ravening and roaring lion.
14 I am ^bmpoured out like water,
and all my bones are ^bnout of joint;
my ^boheart is like ^bpwax;
it is melted within my breast;
15 my strength is ^bqdried up like a potsherd,
and my ^brtongue sticks to my jaws;
you lay me in the dust of death.
16 For ^bsdogs encompass me;
a company of evildoers ^btencircles me;
they have ^bupierced my hands and feet ^{▼▼Some Hebrew manuscripts, Septuagint, Vulgate, Syriac; most Hebrew manuscripts like a lion [they are at] my hands and feet}—
17 I can count all my bones—
they ^bwstare and gloat over me;
18 ^bxthey divide my garments among them,
and for my clothing they cast lots.
19 But you, O Lord, ^bydo not be far off!
O you my help, ^bzcome quickly to my aid!
20 Deliver my soul from the sword,
my precious life from the power of ^cathe dog!
21 Save me from ^cbthe mouth of the lion!
You have rescued ^{▼▼Hebrew answered} me from the horns of ^cdthe wild oxen!
22 ^ceI will tell of your name to my ^cfbrothers;
in the midst of the congregation I will praise you:
23 You who ^cgfear the Lord, praise him!
All you offspring of Jacob, ^chglorify him,
and stand in awe of him, all you offspring of Israel!
24 For he has not despised or abhorred
the affliction of ^cithe afflicted,
and he has not ^cjhidden his face from him,
but has heard, when he ^ckcried to him.
25 From you comes my praise in the great ^clcongregation;
my ^cmvows I will ^cnperform before those who fear him.
26 ^coThe afflicted ^{▼▼Or The meek} shall ^cqeat and be satisfied;
those who seek him shall praise the Lord!
May your hearts ^crlive forever!
27 All ^csthe ends of the earth shall remember
and turn to the Lord,
and all ^ctthe families of the nations
shall worship before you.
28 For ^cukingship belongs to the Lord,
and he rules over the nations.
29 All ^cvthe prosperous of the earth eat and worship;
before him shall ^cwbow all who go down to the dust,
even the one who could not ^cxkeep himself alive.
30 Posterity shall serve him;
it shall be told of the Lord to the coming ^cygeneration;
31 they shall ^czcome and proclaim his righteousness to a people yet ^daunborn,
that he has done it.

Psalms 110

Sit at My Right Hand

A Psalm of David.

1 ^dbThe Lord says to my Lord:
^dc“Sit at my right hand,
^dduntil I make your enemies your ^defootstool.”
2 The Lord sends forth ^dffrom Zion
^dgyour mighty scepter.
^dhRule in the midst of your enemies!
3 ^diYour people will ^djoffer themselves freely
on the day of your ^dkpower, ^{▼▼Or on the day you lead your forces}
in ^dmholy garments; ^{▼▼Masoretic Text; some Hebrew manuscripts and Jerome on the holy mountains}
from the womb of the morning,
the dew of your youth will be yours. ^{▼▼The meaning of the Hebrew is uncertain}
4 ^dpThe Lord has ^dqsworn
and will ^drnot change his mind,
^ds“You are ^dta priest ^duforever
after the order of ^dvMelchizedek.”
5 The Lord is at your ^dwright hand;
he will ^dxshatter kings on ^dythe day of his wrath.
6 He will ^dzexecute judgment among the nations,
^eafilling them with corpses;
he will ^ebshatter chiefs ^{▼▼Or the head}
over the wide earth.
7 He will ^eddrink from the brook by the way;
therefore he will lift up his head.

Isaiah 9:6-7

6 ^eeFor to us a child is born,
to us ^efa son is given;
^egand the government shall be ^ehupon ^{▼▼Or is upon} his shoulder,
and his name shall be called ^{▼▼Or is called}
Wonderful ^ekCounselor, ^elMighty God,
^emEverlasting ^enFather, Prince of ^eoPeace.
7 Of the increase of his government and of peace
^epthere will be no end,
on the throne of David and over his kingdom,
to establish it and to uphold it
^eqwith justice and with righteousness
from this time forth and forevermore.
^erThe zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this.

Isaiah 53

1 ^esWho has believed what he has heard from us? ^{▼▼Or Who has believed what we have heard?}
And to whom has ^euthe arm of the Lord been revealed?
2 For he grew up before him like a young plant,
^evand like a root out of dry ground;
^ewhe had no form or majesty that we should look at him,
and no beauty that we should desire him.
3 ^exHe was despised and rejected ^{▼▼Or forsaken} by men,
a man of sorrows, ^{▼▼Or pains; also verse 4} and acquainted with ^{▼▼Or and knowing} grief; ^{▼▼Or sickness; also verse 4}
and as one from whom men hide their faces ^{▼▼Or as one who hides his face from us}
he was despised, and ^fdwe esteemed him not.
4 ^feSurely he has borne our griefs
and carried our sorrows;
yet we esteemed him stricken,
^ffsmitten by God, and afflicted.
5 ^fgBut he was pierced for our transgressions;
he was crushed for our iniquities;
upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace,
^fhand with his wounds we are healed.
6 ^fiAll we like sheep have gone astray;
we have turned—every one—to his own way;
^fjand the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity of us all.
7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted,
^fkyet he opened not his mouth;
^fllike a ^fmlamb that is led to the slaughter,
and like a sheep that before its shearers is silent,
so he opened not his mouth.
8 By oppression and judgment he was taken away;
and as for his generation, ^fnwho considered
that he was cut off out of the land of the living,
stricken for the transgression of my people?
9 And they made his grave with the wicked
^foand with a rich man in his death,
although ^fphe had done no violence,
and there was no deceit in his mouth.
10 Yet ^fqit was the will of the Lord to crush him;
he has put him to grief; ^{▼▼Or he has made him sick}
^fswhen his soul makes ^{▼▼Or when you make his soul} an offering for guilt,
he shall see his offspring; he shall prolong his days;
^futhe will of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.
11 Out of the anguish of his soul he shall see ^{▼▼Masoretic Text; Dead Sea Scroll he shall see light} and be satisfied;
by his knowledge shall ^fwthe righteous one, my servant,
^fxmake many to be accounted righteous,
^fyand he shall bear their iniquities.
12 ^fzTherefore I will divide him a portion with the many, ^{▼▼Or with the great}
^gband he shall divide the spoil with the strong, ^{▼▼Or with the numerous}
because he poured out his soul to death
and was numbered with the transgressors;
^gdyet he bore the sin of many,
and makes intercession for the transgressors.

Daniel 9:25-27

25 ^geKnow therefore and understand that ^gffrom the going out of the word to restore and ^ggbuild Jerusalem to the coming of an ^ghanointed one, a ^giprince, there shall be seven weeks. Then for sixty-two weeks it shall be built again ^{▼▼Or there shall be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks. It shall be built again} with squares and moat, ^gkbut in a troubled time. 26 And after the sixty-two weeks, an anointed one shall ^glbe cut off and shall have nothing. And the people of the prince who is to come ^gmshall destroy the city and the sanctuary. ^gnIts ^{▼▼Or His} end shall come with a flood, ^gpand to the end there shall be war. ^gqDesolations are decreed. 27 And he shall make a strong covenant with many for one week, ^{▼▼Or seven; twice in this verse} and for half of the week he shall put an end to sacrifice and offering. ^gsAnd on the wing of abominations shall come one who makes desolate, until ^gtthe decreed end is poured out on the desolator.”

Malachi 4:2-6

2 But for you ^guwho fear my name, ^gvthe sun ^gwof righteousness shall rise ^gxwith healing in its wings. You shall go out ^gyleaping like calves from the stall. 3 And you shall tread down the wicked, for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet, ^gzon the day when I act, says the Lord of hosts.

4 ^ha“Remember ^hbthe law of my servant Moses, the statutes and rules ^{▼▼Or and just decrees} that I commanded him at Horeb for all Israel.

5 ^hd“Behold, I will send you ^heElijah the prophet ^hfbefore the great and awesome day of the Lord comes. 6 And he will ^hgturn the hearts of fathers to their children and the hearts of children to their fathers, lest I come and ^hhstrike the land with a decree of utter destruction.” ^{▼▼The Hebrew term rendered decree of utter destruction refers to things devoted (or set apart) to the Lord (or by the Lord) for destruction}
