Psalms 66:16

Only be careful, and keep your soul diligently, lest you forget the things which your eyes saw, and lest they depart from your heart all the days of your life; but make them known to your children and your children’s children—

Yahweh, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel says: “I am Yahweh your God, who teaches you to profit, who leads you by the way that you should go.

But Yahweh is with me as an awesome mighty one. Therefore my persecutors will stumble, and they won’t prevail. They will be utterly disappointed, because they have not dealt wisely, even with an everlasting dishonor which will never be forgotten.

Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners. Purify your hearts, you double-minded.

That which was from the beginning, that which we have heard, that which we have seen with our eyes, that which we saw, and our hands touched, concerning the Word of life

Moreover as for me, far be it from me that I should sin against Yahweh in ceasing to pray for you: but I will instruct you in the good and the right way.

If not, listen to me. Hold your peace, and I will teach you wisdom.”

I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you shall go. I will counsel you with my eye on you.

Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but Yahweh delivers him out of them all.

Many, Yahweh, my God, are the wonderful works which you have done, and your thoughts which are toward us. They can’t be declared back to you. If I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be counted.

Don’t reject me in my old age. Don’t forsake me when my strength fails.

You are my hiding place and my shield. I hope in your word.

But let him who glories glory in this, that he has understanding, and knows me, that I am Yahweh who exercises loving kindness, justice, and righteousness in the earth, for I delight in these things,” says Yahweh.

I will declare your name to my brothers. Among the assembly, I will praise you.

Come, you children, listen to me. I will teach you the fear of Yahweh.

You count my wanderings. You put my tears into your container. Aren’t they in your book?

You have shown your people hard things. You have made us drink the wine that makes us stagger.

Blessed is the one whom you choose and cause to come near, that he may live in your courts. We will be filled with the goodness of your house, your holy temple.

The humble have seen it, and are glad. You who seek after God, let your heart live.

So we will not turn away from you. Revive us, and we will call on your name.

The fear of Yahweh is the beginning of wisdom. All those who do his work have a good understanding. His praise endures forever!

How can a young man keep his way pure? By living according to your word.

Though I walk in the middle of trouble, you will revive me. You will stretch out your hand against the wrath of my enemies. Your right hand will save me.

For what great nation is there that has a god so near to them as Yahweh our God is whenever we call on him?

My tongue shall talk about your righteousness and about your praise all day long.

In God we have made our boast all day long, we will give thanks to your name forever.

Come, see Yahweh’s works, what desolations he has made in the earth.

Let my accusers be disappointed and consumed. Let them be covered with disgrace and scorn who want to harm me.

Every day I will praise you. I will extol your name forever and ever.
