Psalms Chapter 118

Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! His faithfulness endures forever.
(v. 1, NLT)

In my distress I prayed to the Lord, and the Lord answered me and set me free. The Lord is for me, so I will have no fear. What can mere people do to me? Yes the Lord is for me; He will help me. I will look in triumph at those who hate me. It is better to take refuse in the Lord than to trust in princes. (vv. 5-9, NLT)

This is the day that the Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it. Please Lord, please Lord, please save us. Please, Lord please give us success. Bless the one who comes in the name of the Lord. We bless you from the house of the Lord.

The Lord is God, shining upon us. Take the sacrifice and bind it with the cords on the altar. You are my God, and I will praise You. You are my God and I will exalt You.

Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good. His faithful love endures forever.
(vv. 24-29, NLT)

Psalms Chapter 115

O Israel, trust in the Lord! He is your helper and your shield. O priest, descendants of Aaron, trust in the Lord! He is your helper and your shield. All you who fear the Lord, trust in the Lord! He is your helper and your shield.

The Lord remembers us and will bless us. He will bless the people of Israel and bless the priests, the descendants of Aaron. He will bless those who fear the Lord, both great and lowly.

May the Lord richly bless your children. May you be blessed by the Lord, who made heaven and earth. The heavens belong to the Lord, but He has given the earth to all humanity. (vv. 1-16, NLT)

Psalm Chapter 113

Praise the Lord!

Yes, give praise, O servants of the the Lord. Praise the name of the Lord! Blessed be the name of the Lord now and forever. Everywhere-from east to west-praise the name of the Lord. For the Lord is high above the nations; His glory is higher than the heavens.

Who can be compared with the Lord our God, who is enthroned on high? He stoops to look down on heaven and earth. He lifts the poor from the dust and the needy from the garbage dump. He sets the among princes, even the princes of His own people! He gives the childless woman a family, making her a happy mother.

Praise the Lord!

Psalm Chapter 111

Praise the Lord!

I will thank the Lord with all my heart as I meet with His godly people. How amazing are the deeds of the Lord! All who delight in Him should ponder them. Everything He does reveals HIs glory and majesty. His righteousness never fails. He causes us to remember His wonderful works. How gracious and merciful is our Lord! He gives food to those who fear Him; He always remembers His covenant. He has shown His great power to His people by giving them the lands of other nations. And He does just and good, and all His commandments are trustworthy. They are forever true, to be obeyed faithfully and with integrity. He has paid a full ransom for His people. He has guaranteed His covenant with them forever. What a holy, awe-inspiring name He has! Fear of the Lord is the foundation of true wisdom. All who obey His commandments will grow in wisdom.

Praise Him forever!

Psalm Chapter 107

Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! His faithful love endures forever. Has the Lord redeemed you? Then speak out! Tell others He has redeemed you from your enemies. (vv. 1 -2, NLT)

Let them praise the Lord for His great love and for the wonderful things He has done for them. Let them exalt Him publicly before the congregation and before the leaders of the nation. (vv. 31-32, NLT)

But He rescues the poor from trouble and increases their families like flocks of sheep. The godly will see these things and be glad, while the wicked are stuck silent. Those who are wise will take all this to heart; they will see in our history the faithful love of the Lord. (vv. 41-43, NLT)

Psalm Chapter 106

Praise the Lord! Give thanks to the Lord for He is good! His faithfulness endures forever. Who can list the glorious miracles of the Lord? Who can ever praise Him enough? There is joy for those who deal justly with others and always do what is right.

Remember me, Lord, when You show favor to Your people; come near and rescue me. Let me share in the prosperity of Your chosen ones. Let me rejoice in the joy of Your people; le me praise You with those who are Your heritage. (vv. 1-5, NLT)

Save us, O Lord our God! Gather us back from the nations, so we can thank Your holy name and rejoice and praise You. Praise the Lord, the God of Israel, who lives from everlasting to everlasting! Let all the people san, “Amen!” (vv. 47-48, NLT)

Psalm Chapter 104

May the glory of the Lord continue forever! The Lord takes pleasure in all He has made! The earth trembles at His glance; the mountains smoke at His touch.

I will sing to the Lord as long as I live. I will praise my God to my last breath! May all my thoughts be pleasing to Him, or I rejoice in the Lord. Let all sinners vanish from the face of the earth; let the wicked disappear forever. Let all that I am prise the Lord.

Praise the Lord! (vv. 31-35, NLT)

Psalm Chapter 103

Let all that I am praise the Lord; with my whole heart I will praise His holy name. Let all that I am praise the Lord; may I never forget the good things He does for me. He forgives all my sins and heals all my diseases. He redeems me from death and crowns me with love and tender mercies. He fills my life with good things. My youth is renewed like the eagle’s!

The Lord gives justice to all who are treated unfairly. He revealed His character to Moses and His deed to the people of Israel. The Lord is compassionate and merciful, slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love. He will not constantly accuse us, nor remain angry forever. He does not punish us for all our sins, he does not deal harshly with us, as we deserve. For His unfailing lover toward those who fear Him, is as great at the height of the heavens above the earth. His has removed our sins as far from us as the east is from the west. The Lord is like a father to His children, tender and compassionate to those who fear Him. (vv. 1-13, NLT)

Psalm Chapter 102

But You, O Lord, will sit on Your throne forever. Your fame will endure to every generation. You will arise and have mercy on Jerusalem- now is the time to pity her. For Your people will lover every stone in her walls and cherish even the dust in her streets. The nations will tremble before the Lord. Kings of the earth will tremble before His glory. For the Lord will rebuild Jerusalem. He will appear in His glory. He will listen to the prayers of the destitute. He will not reject their pleas.

Let this be recorded for future generations so that people not yet born will praise the Lord. Tell them the Lord looked down from His heavenly sanctuary. He looked down to earth from heaven to hear the groans of the prisoners, to release those condemned to die. And so the Lord’s fame will be celebrated in Zion, His praises in Jerusalem when multitudes gather together and kingdoms come to worship the Lord. (vv. 12-22, NLT)

Psalm Chapter 101

(A Song of David)

I will sing of your love and justice, Lord. I will praise you with songs. I will be careful to live a blameless life-when will you come to help me? I will lead a life of integrity in my own home. I will refuse to look at anything vile and vulgar. I hate all who deal crookedly; I will have nothing to do with them. I will reject perverse ideas and stay away from every evil. I will not tolerate people who slander their neighbors. I will not endure conceit or pride.

I will search for faithful people to be my companions. Only those who are above reproach will be allowed to serve me. I will not allow deceivers to serve in my house, and liars will not stay in my presence. My daily task will be to ferret out the wicked and free the city of the Lord from their grip.
