Encouragement from Psalms 12-14-18

Psalm 118:1-119:88 New King James Version (NKJV)
Praise to God for His Everlasting Mercy

118 Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good!
For His mercy endures forever.

2
Let Israel now say,
“His mercy endures forever.”
3
Let the house of Aaron now say,
“His mercy endures forever.”
4
Let those who fear the Lord now say,
“His mercy endures forever.”

5
I called on the Lord in distress;
The Lord answered me and set me in a broad place.
6
The Lord is on my side;
I will not fear.
What can man do to me?
7
The Lord is for me among those who help me;
Therefore I shall see my desire on those who hate me.
8
It is better to trust in the Lord
Than to put confidence in man.
9
It is better to trust in the Lord
Than to put confidence in princes.

10
All nations surrounded me,
But in the name of the Lord I will destroy them.
11
They surrounded me,
Yes, they surrounded me;
But in the name of the Lord I will destroy them.
12
They surrounded me like bees;
They were quenched like a fire of thorns;
For in the name of the Lord I will destroy them.
13
You pushed me violently, that I might fall,
But the Lord helped me.
14
The Lord is my strength and song,
And He has become my salvation.

15
The voice of rejoicing and salvation
Is in the tents of the righteous;
The right hand of the Lord does valiantly.
16
The right hand of the Lord is exalted;
The right hand of the Lord does valiantly.
17
I shall not die, but live,
And declare the works of the Lord.
18
The Lord has chastened me severely,
But He has not given me over to death.

19
Open to me the gates of righteousness;
I will go through them,
And I will praise the Lord.
20
This is the gate of the Lord,
Through which the righteous shall enter.

21
I will praise You,
For You have answered me,
And have become my salvation.

22
The stone which the builders rejected
Has become the chief cornerstone.
23
This was the Lord’s doing;
It is marvelous in our eyes.
24
This is the day the Lord has made;
We will rejoice and be glad in it.

25
Save now, I pray, O Lord;
O Lord, I pray, send now prosperity.
26
Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!
We have blessed you from the house of the Lord.
27
God is the Lord,
And He has given us light;
Bind the sacrifice with cords to the horns of the altar.
28
You are my God, and I will praise You;
You are my God, I will exalt You.

29
Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good!
For His mercy endures forever.
Meditations on the Excellencies of the Word of God
א ALEPH

119 Blessed are the undefiled in the way,
Who walk in the law of the Lord!
2
Blessed are those who keep His testimonies,
Who seek Him with the whole heart!
3
They also do no iniquity;
They walk in His ways.
4
You have commanded us
To keep Your precepts diligently.
5
Oh, that my ways were directed
To keep Your statutes!
6
Then I would not be ashamed,
When I look into all Your commandments.
7
I will praise You with uprightness of heart,
When I learn Your righteous judgments.
8
I will keep Your statutes;
Oh, do not forsake me utterly!
ב BETH

9
How can a young man cleanse his way?
By taking heed according to Your word.
10
With my whole heart I have sought You;
Oh, let me not wander from Your commandments!
11
Your word I have hidden in my heart,
That I might not sin against You.
12
Blessed are You, O Lord!
Teach me Your statutes.
13
With my lips I have declared
All the judgments of Your mouth.
14
I have rejoiced in the way of Your testimonies,
As much as in all riches.
15
I will meditate on Your precepts,
And contemplate Your ways.
16
I will delight myself in Your statutes;
I will not forget Your word.

Deal bountifully with Your servant,

Open my eyes, that I may see
Wondrous things from Your law.
19
I am a stranger in the earth;
Do not hide Your commandments from me.
20
My soul breaks with longing
For Your judgments at all times.
21
You rebuke the proud—the cursed,
Who stray from Your commandments.
22
Remove from me reproach and contempt,
For I have kept Your testimonies.
23
Princes also sit and speak against me,
But Your servant meditates on Your statutes.
24
Your testimonies also are my delight
And my counselors.

So shall I meditate on Your wonderful works.

My soul melts from heaviness;
Strengthen me according to Your word.
29
Remove from me the way of lying,
And grant me Your law graciously.
30
I have chosen the way of truth;
Your judgments I have laid before me.
31
I cling to Your testimonies;
O Lord, do not put me to shame!
32
I will run the course of Your commandments,
For You shall enlarge my heart.

And revive me in Your way.

Establish Your word to Your servant,
Who is devoted to fearing You.

Turn away my reproach which I dread,
For Your judgments are good.

Behold, I long for Your precepts;
Revive me in Your righteousness.
ו WAW

41
Let Your mercies come also to me, O Lord—
Your salvation according to Your word.

So shall I have an answer for him who reproaches me,
For I trust in Your word.
43
And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth,
For I have hoped in Your ordinances.
44
So shall I keep Your law continually,
Forever and ever.
45
And I will walk at liberty,
For I seek Your precepts.
46
I will speak of Your testimonies also before kings,
And will not be ashamed.
47
And I will delight myself in Your commandments,
Which I love.
48
My hands also I will lift up to Your commandments,
Which I love,
And I will meditate on Your statutes.

Remember the word to Your servant,
Upon which You have caused me to hope.
50
This is my comfort in my affliction,
For Your word has given me life.
51
The proud have me in great derision,
Yet I do not turn aside from Your law.
52
I remembered Your judgments of old, O Lord,
And have comforted myself.
53
Indignation has taken hold of me
Because of the wicked, who forsake Your law.
54
Your statutes have been my songs
In the house of my pilgrimage.
55
I remember Your name in the night, O Lord,
And I keep Your law.
56
This has become mine,
Because I kept Your precepts.

You are my portion, O Lord;
I have said that I would keep Your words.

I entreated Your favor with my whole heart;
Be merciful to me according to Your word.
59
I thought about my ways,
And turned my feet to Your testimonies.
60
I made haste, and did not delay
To keep Your commandments.
61
The cords of the wicked have bound me,
But I have not forgotten Your law.
62
At midnight I will rise to give thanks to You,
Because of Your righteous judgments.
63
I am a companion of all who fear You,
And of those who keep Your precepts.
64
The earth, O Lord, is full of Your mercy;
Teach me Your statutes.
ט TETH

You have dealt well with Your servant,
O Lord, according to Your word.

Before I was afflicted I went astray,
But now I keep Your word.
68
You are good, and do good;
Teach me Your statutes.
69
The proud have forged a lie against me,
But I will keep Your precepts with my whole heart.
70
Their heart is as fat as grease,
But I delight in Your law.
71
It is good for me that I have been afflicted,
That I may learn Your statutes.
72
The law of Your mouth is better to me
Than thousands of coins of gold and silver.
י YOD

73
Your hands have made me and fashioned me;
Give me understanding, that I may learn Your commandments.
74
Those who fear You will be glad when they see me,
Because I have hoped in Your word.
75
I know, O Lord, that Your judgments are right,
And that in faithfulness You have afflicted me.
76
Let, I pray, Your merciful kindness be for my comfort,
According to Your word to Your servant.
77
Let Your tender mercies come to me, that I may live;
For Your law is my delight.
78
Let the proud be ashamed,
For they treated me wrongfully with falsehood;
But I will meditate on Your precepts.
79
Let those who fear You turn to me,
Those who know Your testimonies.
80
Let my heart be blameless regarding Your statutes,
That I may not be ashamed.
כ KAPH

81
My soul faints for Your salvation,
But I hope in Your word.
82
My eyes fail from searching Your word,
Saying, “When will You comfort me?”
83
For I have become like a wineskin in smoke,
Yet I do not forget Your statutes.
84
How many are the days of Your servant?
When will You execute judgment on those who persecute me?
85
The proud have dug pits for me,
Which is not according to Your law.
86
All Your commandments are faithful;
They persecute me wrongfully;
Help me!
87
They almost made an end of me on earth,
But I did not forsake Your precepts.
88
Revive me according to Your lovingkindness,
So that I may keep the testimony of Your mouth.
