strkjv @Psalms:80:1 @To the chief Musician upon Shoshannimeduth Shuwshan , A Psalm of Asaph .Give ear , O Shepherd of Israel Yisra #el #, thou that leadest Joseph like a flock tso #n #; thou that dwellest between the cherubims , shine forth . * Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh stir up thy strength , and come and save us . * Turn us again , O God , and cause thy face to shine ; and we shall be saved . * O LORD God of hosts , how long wilt thou be angry against the prayer of thy people ? * Thou feedest them with the bread of tears dim #ah #; and givest them tears to drink in great measure . * Thou makest us a strife unto our neighbours : and our enemies laugh among themselves . * Turn us again , O God of hosts , and cause thy face to shine ; and we shall be saved . * Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt : thou hast cast out the heathen , and planted it . * Thou preparedst room before it , and didst cause it to take deep root , and it filled the land . * The hills were covered with the shadow of it , and the boughs thereof were like the goodly cedars . * She sent out her boughs unto the sea , and her branches unto the river . * Why hast thou then broken down her hedges , so that all they which pass by the way do pluck her ? * The boar out of the wood doth waste it , and the wild beast of the field doth devour it . * Return , we beseech thee , O God of hosts : look down from heaven , and behold , and visit this vine ; * And the vineyard kannah # which thy right hand hath planted , and the branch that thou madest strong for thyself . * It is burned with fire , it is cut down : they perish at the rebuke of thy countenance . * Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand , upon the son of man whom thou madest strong for thyself . * So will not we go back from thee : quicken us , and we will call upon thy name . * Turn us again , O LORD God of hosts , cause thy face to shine ; and we shall be saved . strkjv @Psalms:81:1 @To the chief Musician upon Gittith , A Psalm of Asaph .Sing aloud unto God our strength : make a joyful noise unto the God of Jacob Ya #aqob #. * Take a psalm , and bring hither the timbrel , the pleasant harp with the psaltery . * Blow up the trumpet in the new moon , in the time appointed , on our solemn feast day . * For this was a statute for Israel Yisra #el #, and a law of the God of Jacob Ya #aqob #. * This he ordained in Joseph for a testimony , when he went out through the land of Egypt : where I heard a language that I understood not . * I removed his shoulder from the burden : his hands were delivered from the pots . * Thou calledst in trouble , and I delivered thee ; I answered thee in the secret place of thunder ra #am #: I proved thee at the waters of Meribah . Selah . * Hear , O my people , and I will testify unto thee : O Israel Yisra #el #, if thou wilt hearken unto me ; * There shall no strange god be in thee ; neither shalt thou worship any strange god . * I am the LORD thy God , which brought thee out of the land of Egypt : open thy mouth wide , and I will fill it . * But my people would not hearken to my voice ; and Israel would none of me . * So I gave them up unto their own hearts lust : and they walked in their own counsels mow #etsah #. * Oh that my people had hearkened unto me , and Israel had walked in my ways ! * I should soon have subdued their enemies , and turned my hand against their adversaries . * The haters of the LORD should have submitted themselves unto him : but their time should have endured for ever . * He should have fed them also with the finest of the wheat : and with honey out of the rock should I have satisfied thee . strkjv @Psalms:82:1 @A Psalm of Asaph .God standeth in the congregation of the mighty ; he judgeth among the gods . * How long will ye judge unjustly , and accept the persons of the wicked ? Selah . * Defend the poor and fatherless : do justice to the afflicted and needy . * Deliver the poor and needy : rid them out of the hand of the wicked . * They know not , neither will they understand ; they walk on in darkness : all the foundations of the earth are out of course . * I have said , Ye are gods ; and all of you are children of the most High . * But ye shall die like men , and fall like one of the princes . * Arise , O God , judge the earth : for thou shalt inherit all nations . strkjv @Psalms:83:1 @A Song or Psalm of Asaph .Keep not thou silence , O God : hold not thy peace , and be not still , O God . * For , lo , thine enemies make a tumult : and they that hate thee have lifted up the head ro #sh #. * They have taken crafty counsel against thy people , and consulted against thy hidden ones . * They have said , Come , and let us cut them off from being a nation ; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance . * For they have consulted together with one consent : they are confederate against thee : * The tabernacles of Edom , and the Ishmaelites Yishma #e #liy #; of Moab Mow #ab #, and the Hagarenes ; * Gebal , and Ammon , and Amalek ; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre ; * Assur also is joined with them : they have holpen the children of Lot . Selah . * Do unto them as unto the Midianites ; as to Sisera , as to Jabin , at the brook of Kison : * Which perished at Endor #Eyn-Do #r #: they became as dung for the earth . * Make their nobles like Oreb , and like Zeeb Ze #eb #: yea , all their princes as Zebah , and as Zalmunna : * Who said , Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession . * O my God , make them like a wheel ; as the stubble before the wind . * As the fire burneth a wood ya #ar #, and as the flame setteth # the mountains on fire ; * So persecute them with thy tempest ca #ar #, and make them afraid with thy storm . * Fill their faces with shame ; that they may seek thy name , O LORD . * Let them be confounded and troubled for ever ; yea , let them be put to shame , and perish : * That men may know that thou , whose name alone is JEHOVAH , art the most high over all the earth . strkjv @Psalms:84:1 @To the chief Musician upon Gittith , A Psalm for the sons of Korah .How amiable are thy tabernacles , O LORD of hosts ! * My soul longeth , yea , even fainteth for the courts of the LORD : my heart and my flesh crieth out for the living God . * Yea , the sparrow hath found an house , and the swallow a nest for herself , where she may lay her young , even thine altars , O LORD of hosts , my King , and my God . * Blessed are they that dwell in thy house : they will be still praising thee . Selah . * Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee ; in whose heart are the ways of them . * Who passing through the valley of Baca B make it a well ma #yan #; the rain also filleth the pools . * They go from strength to strength , every one of them in Zion appeareth before God . * O LORD God of hosts , hear my prayer : give ear , O God of Jacob Ya #aqob #. Selah . * Behold , O God our shield , and look upon the face of thine anointed . * For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand . I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God , than to dwell in the tents of wickedness . * For the LORD God is a sun and shield : the LORD will give grace and glory : no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly . * O LORD of hosts , blessed is the man that trusteth in thee . strkjv @Psalms:85:1 @To the chief Musician , A Psalm for the sons of Korah .LORD , thou hast been favourable unto thy land : thou hast brought back the captivity sh @ of Jacob Ya #aqob #. * Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people , thou hast covered all their sin chatta #ah #. Selah . * Thou hast taken away all thy wrath : thou hast turned thyself from the fierceness of thine anger . * Turn us , O God of our salvation , and cause thine anger toward us to cease . * Wilt thou be angry with us for ever ? wilt thou draw out thine anger to all generations ? * Wilt thou not revive us again : that thy people may rejoice in thee ? * Shew us thy mercy , O LORD , and grant us thy salvation . * I will hear what God the LORD will speak : for he will speak peace unto his people , and to his saints : but let them not turn again to folly . * Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him ; that glory may dwell in our land . * Mercy and truth are met together ; righteousness and peace have kissed each other . * Truth shall spring out of the earth ; and righteousness shall look down from heaven . * Yea , the LORD shall give that which is good ; and our land shall yield her increase . * Righteousness shall go before him ; and shall set us in the way of his steps pa #am #. strkjv @Psalms:86:1 @A Prayer of David .Bow down thine ear , O LORD , hear me : for I am poor and needy .
