  • Psalm Extracts
    Longman’s Charity ~ Psalms A Novel about Landscape and Childhood, Sanity and Abuse, Truth and Redemption Paul Brazier The extracts from the psalms that open each chapter were based, initially, on existing translations, however I then re-translated by going back to the original Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible: The Septuagint, from the late 2nd century BC. Prologue—A Welcoming Κύριε, μὴ τῷ θυμῷ σου ἐλέγξῃς με “Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am weak; μηδὲ τῇ ὀργῇ σου παιδεύσῃς με. O Lord, heal me, for my very bones are troubled.” PSALM 6 vv. 2 PSALM 6:2 PART ONE THE LAND & THE CHILD ἰδοὺ γὰρ ἐν ἀνομίαις συνελήμφθην, καὶ ἐν ἁμαρτίαις “Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, and in sin my ἐκίσσησέν με ἡ μήτηρ μου. mother did conceive me.” PSALM 50 (51) vv. 5 PSALM 51:5 Chapter 1 καὶ ἔστησεν αὐτὴν τῷ Ιακωβ εἰς πρόσταγμα καὶ τῷ “He sends the springs into the valleys, they flow among Ισραηλ διαθήκην αἰώνιον λέγων Σοὶ δώσω τὴν γῆν the hills. They give drink to every beast of the field . Χανααν σχοίνισμα κληρονομίας ὑμῶν ... He causes the grass to grow for the cattle, and ἐξανατέλλων χόρτον τοῖς κτήνεσιν καὶ χλόην τῇ vegetation for man, that he may bring forth food from δουλείᾳ τῶν ἀνθρώπων τοῦ ἐξαγαγεῖν ἄρτον ἐκ τῆς the earth...” γῆς. PSALM 103 (104) vv. 10-11a, &, 14 PSALM 104:10-11a & 14 Chapter 2 ἰδοὺ γὰρ ἐν ἀνομίαις συνελήμφθην, καὶ ἐν ἁμαρτίαις “Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, and in sin my ἐκίσσησέν με ἡ μήτηρ μου.

  • Cultivate – PSALMS 126-150 by Tommy Lee PSALM 126: We Now
    Cultivate – PSALMS 126-150 by Tommy Lee PSALM 126: We now come to the seventh of the "Songs of Ascent," a lovely group of Psalms that God's people would sing and pray together as they journeyed up to Jerusalem. Here in this Psalm they are praying for the day when the Lord would "restore the fortunes" of God's people (vs.1,4). 126 is a prayer for spiritual revival and reawakening. The first half is all happiness and joy, remembering how God answered this prayer once. But now that's just a memory... like a dream. They need to be renewed again. So they call out to God once more: transform, restore, deliver us again. Don't you think this is a prayer that God's people could stand to sing and pray today? Pray it this week. We'll pray it together on Sunday. God is here inviting such prayer; he's even putting the very words in our mouths. PSALM 127: This is now the eighth of the "Songs of Ascent," which God's people would sing on their procession up to the temple. We've seen that Zion / Jerusalem / The House of the Lord are all common themes in these Psalms. But the "house" that Psalm 127 refers to (in v.1) is that of a dwelling for a family. 127 speaks plainly and clearly to our anxiety-ridden thirst for success. How can anything be strong or successful or sufficient or secure... if it does not come from the Lord? Without the blessing of the Lord, our lives will come to nothing.

  • Day 29 Morning Prayer
    DAY 29 MORNING PRAYER Call to Prayer Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness: O come, let us adore him. Confession of Faith I believe that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the Twelve. Then he appeared to over five hundred brothers and sisters at one time. 1 Corinthians 15:3-6 Canticle May the name of God be praised forever and ever, for wisdom and power belong to him. He changes the times and seasons; he removes kings and establishes kings. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding. He reveals the deep and hidden things; he knows what is in the darkness, and light dwells with him. Daniel 2:20-23 Morning Psalms Psalm 139 1 Lord, you have searched me and known me. 2 You know when I sit down and when I stand up; you understand my thoughts from far away. 3 You observe my travels and my rest; you are aware of all my ways. 4 Before a word is on my tongue, you know all about it, Lord. 5 You have encircled me; you have placed your hand on me. 6 This wondrous knowledge is beyond me. It is lofty; I am unable to reach it. 7 Where can I go to escape your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? 275 8 If I go up to heaven, you are there; if I make my bed in Sheol, you are there.

The book of Psalms is divided into five collections with each ending with a kind of special doxology that marks the end of each book. The First, Second, and Third Books end with Amen and Amen; the Fourth, with Amen and Hallelujah; the Fifth, with Hallelujah. !
