Psalms 85:6

The Lord Yahweh’s Spirit is on me, because Yahweh has anointed me to preach good news to the humble. He has sent me to bind up the broken hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and release to those who are bound,

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me. Your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

A man’s pride brings him low, but one of lowly spirit gains honor.

Behold, he will kill me. I have no hope. Nevertheless, I will maintain my ways before him.

Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit.

Guide me in your truth, and teach me, For you are the God of my salvation, I wait for you all day long.

Therefore Yahweh’s anger burns against his people, and he has stretched out his hand against them and has struck them. The mountains tremble, and their dead bodies are as refuse in the middle of the streets. For all this, his anger is not turned away, but his hand is still stretched out.

I will greatly rejoice in Yahweh! My soul will be joyful in my God, for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation. He has covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decks himself with a garland and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.

Rejoice in the Lord always! Again I will say, “Rejoice!”

Yah is my strength and song. He has become my salvation. This is my God, and I will praise him; my father’s God, and I will exalt him.

Who is like you, Yahweh, among the gods? Who is like you, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?

Hannah prayed, and said: “My heart exults in Yahweh! My horn is exalted in Yahweh. My mouth is enlarged over my enemies, because I rejoice in your salvation.

Yahweh is my light and my salvation. Whom shall I fear? Yahweh is the strength of my life. Of whom shall I be afraid?

For though Yahweh is high, yet he looks after the lowly; but he knows the proud from afar.

Behold, God is my salvation. I will trust, and will not be afraid; for Yah, Yahweh, is my strength and song; and he has become my salvation.”

Don’t you be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness.

Yahweh says: “Behold, I will reverse the captivity of Jacob’s tents, and have compassion on his dwelling places. The city will be built on its own hill, and the palace will be inhabited in its own place.

But as for me, I will look to Yahweh. I will wait for the God of my salvation. My God will hear me.

Yahweh is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; and he knows those who take refuge in him.

When I was present with you and was in need, I wasn’t a burden on anyone, for the brothers, when they came from Macedonia, supplied the measure of my need. In everything I kept myself from being burdensome to you, and I will continue to do so.

Oh give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.

Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in Yahweh’s house forever.

Rejoice in Yahweh, you righteous! Praise is fitting for the upright.

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

So that your beloved may be delivered, save with your right hand, and answer us.

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

Bring joy to the soul of your servant, for to you, Lord, do I lift up my soul.

He will call on me, and I will answer him. I will be with him in trouble. I will deliver him, and honor him.

Be glad in Yahweh, you righteous people! Give thanks to his holy Name.

Know that Yahweh, he is God. It is he who has made us, and we are his. We are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

Let my meditation be sweet to him. I will rejoice in Yahweh.

The result of humility and the fear of Yahweh is wealth, honor, and life.

For in the day of trouble, he will keep me secretly in his pavilion. In the secret place of his tabernacle, he will hide me. He will lift me up on a rock.

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

Then I thought, “I will appeal to this: the years of the right hand of the Most High.”

Let your work appear to your servants, your glory to their children.

Give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.

Cause me to hear your loving kindness in the morning, for I trust in you. Cause me to know the way in which I should walk, for I lift up my soul to you.

He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds.

Yahweh’s name is a strong tower: the righteous run to him, and are safe.

The fear of Yahweh leads to life, then contentment; he rests and will not be touched by trouble.

Therefore the Lord will not rejoice over their young men, neither will he have compassion on their fatherless and widows; for everyone is profane and an evildoer, and every mouth speaks folly. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

Yahweh, I have heard of your fame. I stand in awe of your deeds, Yahweh. Renew your work in the middle of the years. In the middle of the years make it known. In wrath, you remember mercy.
