Psalms
109-111
Psa
109:1 God of my praise, don't remain silent,
Psa
109:2 for they have opened the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of
deceit against me. They have spoken to me with a lying tongue.
Psa
109:3 They have also surrounded me with words of hatred, and fought
against me without a cause.
Psa
109:4 In return for my love, they are my adversaries; but I am in
prayer.
Psa
109:5 They have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.
Psa
109:6 Set a wicked man over him. Let an adversary stand at his right
hand.
Psa
109:7 When he is judged, let him come forth guilty. Let his prayer
be turned into sin.
Psa
109:8 Let his days be few. Let another take his office.
Psa
109:9 Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.
Psa
109:10 Let his children be wandering beggars. Let them be sought
from their ruins.
Psa
109:11 Let the creditor seize all that he has. Let strangers plunder
the fruit of his labor.
Psa
109:12 Let there be none to extend kindness to him, neither let
there be any to have pity on his fatherless children.
Psa
109:13 Let his posterity be cut off. In the generation following let
their name be blotted out.
Psa
109:14 Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered by Yahweh.
Don't let the sin of his mother be blotted out.
Psa
109:15 Let them be before Yahweh continually, that he may cut off
the memory of them from the earth;
Psa
109:16 because he didn't remember to show kindness, but persecuted
the poor and needy man, the broken in heart, to kill them.
Psa
109:17 Yes, he loved cursing, and it came to him. He didn't delight
in blessing, and it was far from him.
Psa
109:18 He clothed himself also with cursing as with his garment. It
came into his inward parts like water, like oil into his bones.
Psa
109:19 Let it be to him as the clothing with which he covers
himself, for the belt that is always around him.
Psa
109:20 This is the reward of my adversaries from Yahweh, of those
who speak evil against my soul.
Psa
109:21 But deal with me, Yahweh the Lord, for your name's sake,
because your loving kindness is good, deliver me;
Psa
109:22 for I am poor and needy. My heart is wounded within me.
Psa
109:23 I fade away like an evening shadow. I am shaken off like a
locust.
Psa
109:24 My knees are weak through fasting. My body is thin and lacks
fat.
Psa
109:25 I have also become a reproach to them. When they see me, they
shake their head.
Psa
109:26 Help me, Yahweh, my God. Save me according to your loving
kindness;
Psa
109:27 that they may know that this is your hand; that you, Yahweh,
have done it.
Psa
109:28 They may curse, but you bless. When they arise, they will be
shamed, but your servant shall rejoice.
Psa
109:29 Let my adversaries be clothed with dishonor. Let them cover
themselves with their own shame as with a robe.
Psa
109:30 I will give great thanks to Yahweh with my mouth. Yes, I will
praise him among the multitude.
Psa
109:31 For he will stand at the right hand of the needy, to save him
from those who judge his soul.
Psa
110:1 Yahweh says to my Lord, "Sit at my right hand, until I
make your enemies your footstool for your feet."
Psa
110:2 Yahweh will send forth the rod of your strength out of Zion.
Rule in the midst of your enemies.
Psa
110:3 Your people offer themselves willingly in the day of your
power, in holy array. Out of the womb of the morning, you have the
dew of your youth.
Psa
110:4 Yahweh has sworn, and will not change his mind: "You are
a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek."
Psa
110:5 The Lord is at your right hand. He will crush kings in the day
of his wrath.
Psa
110:6 He will judge among the nations. He will heap up dead bodies.
He will crush the ruler of the whole earth.
Psa
110:7 He will drink of the brook in the way; therefore he will lift
up his head.
Psa
111:1 Praise Yah! I will give thanks to Yahweh with my whole heart,
in the council of the upright, and in the congregation.
Psa
111:2 Yahweh's works are great, pondered by all those who delight in
them.
Psa
111:3 His work is honor and majesty. His righteousness endures
forever.
Psa
111:4 He has caused his wonderful works to be remembered. Yahweh is
gracious and merciful.
Psa
111:5 He has given food to those who fear him. He always remembers
his covenant.
Psa
111:6 He has shown his people the power of his works, in giving them
the heritage of the nations.
Psa
111:7 The works of his hands are truth and justice. All his precepts
are sure.
Psa
111:8 They are established forever and ever. They are done in truth
and uprightness.
Psa
111:9 He has sent redemption to his people. He has ordained his
covenant forever. His name is holy and awesome!
Psa
111:10 The fear of Yahweh is the beginning of wisdom. All those who
do his work have a good understanding. His praise endures forever!

Corinthians 7
2Co 7:1
Having therefore these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves
from all defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the
fear of God.
2Co 7:2
Open your hearts to us. We wronged no one. We corrupted no one. We
took advantage of no one.
2Co 7:3 I
say this not to condemn you, for I have said before, that you are in
our hearts to die together and live together.
2Co 7:4
Great is my boldness of speech toward you. Great is my boasting on
your behalf. I am filled with comfort. I overflow with joy in all our
affliction.
2Co 7:5
For even when we had come into Macedonia, our flesh had no relief,
but we were afflicted on every side. Fightings were outside. Fear was
inside.
2Co 7:6
Nevertheless, he who comforts the lowly, God, comforted us by the
coming of Titus;
2Co 7:7
and not by his coming only, but also by the comfort with which he was
comforted in you, while he told us of your longing, your mourning,
and your zeal for me; so that I rejoiced still more.
2Co 7:8
For though I made you sorry with my letter, I do not regret it,
though I did regret it. For I see that my letter made you sorry,
though just for a while.
2Co 7:9 I
now rejoice, not that you were made sorry, but that you were made
sorry to repentance. For you were made sorry in a godly way, that you
might suffer loss by us in nothing.
2Co 7:10
For godly sorrow works repentance to salvation, which brings no
regret. But the sorrow of the world works death.
2Co 7:11
For behold, this same thing, that you were made sorry in a godly way,
what earnest care it worked in you. Yes, what defense, indignation,
fear, longing, zeal, and vengeance! In everything you demonstrated
yourselves to be pure in the matter.
2Co 7:12
So although I wrote to you, I wrote not for his cause that did the
wrong, nor for his cause that suffered the wrong, but that your
earnest care for us might be revealed in you in the sight of God.
2Co 7:13
Therefore we have been comforted. In our comfort we rejoiced the more
exceedingly for the joy of Titus, because his spirit has been
refreshed by you all.
2Co 7:14
For if in anything I have boasted to him on your behalf, I was not
disappointed. But as we spoke all things to you in truth, so our
glorying also which I made before Titus was found to be truth.
2Co 7:15
His affection is more abundantly toward you, while he remembers all
of your obedience, how with fear and trembling you received him.
2Co 7:16
I rejoice that in everything I am of good courage concerning you.
