Psalm 101 ↟↟
- f David, a song. I shall sing of kindness and judgment, to You, O Lord, I shall sing.
- I shall concern myself with the way of integrity. When will it come to me? I shall walk with the innocence of my heart within my house.
- I do not place before my eyes any base thing, I hate doing wayward deeds, it does not cling to me.
- A perverse heart turns away from me, I know no evil.
- He who slanders his neighbor in secret, I cut him down, one whose eyes are raised up high and his heart is expansive, I cannot tolerate him.
- My eyes are upon the faithful of the land to dwell with me, he who goes on the way of the innocent, he will serve me.
- He will not dwell within my house, he who practices deceit, who speaks lies, will not be established before my eyes.
- Betimes I cut down all the wicked of the earth, to cut down from the city of the Lord all workers of violence.
Psalm 102 ↟↟
- prayer for a poor man when he enwraps himself and pours out his speech before the Lord.
- O Lord, hearken to my prayer, and may my cry come to You.
- Do not hide Your countenance from me, on the day of my distress extend Your ear to me, on the day I call, answer me quickly.
- For my days have ended in smoke, and as a hearth my bones are dried up.
- Beaten like grass and withered is my heart, for I have forgotten to eat my bread.
- From the sound of my sigh my bones clung to my flesh.
- I was like a bird of the wilderness, I was like an owl of the wasteland.
- I pondered, and I am like a lonely bird on a roof.
- All day long my enemies revile me, those who scorn me swear by me.
- For ashes I ate like bread, and my drinks I mixed with weeping.
- Because of Your fury and Your anger, for You picked me up and cast me down.
- My days are like a lengthening shadow, and I dry out like grass.
- But You, O Lord, will be enthroned forever, and Your mention is to all generations.
- You will rise, You will have mercy on Zion for there is a time to favor it, for the appointed season has arrived.
- For Your servants desired its stones and favored its dust.
- And the nations will fear the name of the Lord, and all the kings of the earth Your glory.
- For the Lord has built up Zion, He has appeared in His glory.
- He has turned to the prayer of those who cried out, and He did not despise their prayer.
- Let this be inscribed for the latest generation, and a [newly] created people will praise Yah.
- For He has looked down from His holy height, the Lord looked from heaven to Earth,
- To hear the cry of the prisoner, to loose the sons of the dying nation,
- To proclaim in Zion the name of the Lord and His praise in Jerusalem.
- When peoples gather together, and kingdoms, to serve the Lord.
- He has afflicted my strength on the way, He has shortened my days.
- I say, "My God, do not take me away in the middle of my days, You Whose years endure throughout all generations.
- In the beginning You founded the earth, and the heavens are the work of Your hands.
- They will perish but You will endure, and all of them will rot away like a garment, like raiment You will turn them over and they will pass away.
- But You are He, and Your years will not end.
- The children of Your servants will dwell, and their seed will be established before You."
