መዝሙር 9

ለመዘምራን አለቃ፤ በሙትላቤን፤ የዳዊት መዝሙር።

1 አቤቱ፥ በልቤ ሁሉ አመሰግንሃለሁ፥ ተአምራትህንም ሁሉ እነግራለሁ።

2 በአንተ ደስ ይለኛል፥ ሐሤትንም አደርጋለሁ፤ ልዑል ሆይ፥ ለስምህ እዘምራለሁ።

3 ጠላቶቼ ወደ ኋላ በተመለሱ ጊዜ፥ ይሰናከላሉ ከፊትህም ይጠፋሉ።

4 ፍርዴንና በቀሌን አድርገህልኛልና፤ ጽድቅን እየፈረድህ በዙፋንህ ላይ ተቀመጥህ።

5 አሕዛብን ገሠጽህ፥ ዝንጉዎችንም አጠፋህ፥ ስማቸውንም ለዘላለም ደመሰስህ።

6 ጠላቶች በጦር ለዘላለም ጠፉ፥ ከተሞቻቸውንም አፈረስህ፥ ዝክራቸውም በአንድነት ጠፋ።

7 እግዚአብሔር ግን ለዘላለም ይኖራል፥ ዙፋኑንም ለመፍረድ አዘጋጀ፤

8 እርሱም ዓለምን በጽድቅ ይፈርዳታል፥ አሕዛብንም በቅንነት ይዳኛቸዋል።

9 እግዚአብሔርም ለድሆች መጠጊያ ሆናቸው፥ እርሱም በመከራቸው ጊዜ ረዳታቸው ነው።

10 ስምህን የሚያውቁ ሁሉ በአንተ ይታመናሉ፥ አቤቱ፥ የሚሹህን አትተዋቸውምና።

11 በጽዮን ለሚኖር ለእግዚአብሔር ዘምሩ፥ በአሕዛብም መካከል አደራረጉን ንገሩ፤

12 ደማቸውን የሚመራመር እርሱ አስቦአልና፥ የድሆችንም ጩኸት አልረሳምና።

13 አቤቱ፥ እዘንልኝ፥ ጠላቶቼም የሚያመጡብኝን መከራ እይ፥ ከሞት ደጆች ከፍ ከፍ የምታደርገኝ፤

14 ምስጋናውን ሁሉ እናገር ዘንድ፤ በጽዮን ልጅ በደጆችዋ በማዳንህ ደስ ይለኛል።

15 አሕዛብ በሠሩት ጕድጓድ ወደቁ፥ በዚያችም በሸሸጓት ወጥመድ እግራቸው ተጠመደች።

16 እግዚአብሔር ፍርድን በማድረግ የታወቀ ነው፤ ኃጢአተኛው በእጆቹ ሥራ ተጠመደ።

17 ኃጢአተኞች ወደ ሲኦል ይመለሳሉ፥ እግዚአብሔርን የሚረሱ አሕዛብም ሁሉ።

18 ድሀ ለዘላለም አይረሳምና፥ የችግረኞችም ተስፋቸው ለዘላለም አይጠፋም።

19 አቤቱ፥ ተነሥ፤ ሰውም አይበርታ፥ አሕዛብም በፊትህ ይፈረድባቸው።

20 አቤቱ፥ ፍርሃትን በላያቸው ጫንባቸው፤ አሕዛብ ሰዎች እንደ ሆኑ ይወቁ።

Isaiah is serving the Lord in a difficult day. The people of Israel have turned their backs on the Lord Who redeemed then and they are facing terrible chastisement because of their sins. The nation is under attack by the wicked, brutal Assyrians. The people are terrified and obviously concerned about their future. In the midst of this difficult hour, Isaiah stands forth as a prophet of hope and comfort. He writes to tell the people that a better day is coming. He seeks to comfort the people by speaking about the coming King and His Kingdom. This chapter is part of that prophecy of hope and comfort. In these verses Isaiah is looking ahead to the millennial kingdom of the coming Messiah. Isaiah sees a future time of peace, joy and prosperity. A brief look at the first seven verses of this chapter provides some insight into why it will be such a blessed time for Israel.

This Psalm consider a beautiful example of a hymn of praise, it observes the use and possible meaning of the word "Gittith",it also note man's dominion over the earth when created by God, but also that he lost it and has now been regained by Jesus Christ.

Here, David is asking God to judge him according to his righteousness and his integrity.

Ask yourself this question, if you were standing before God today, and you asked God to judge you according to your righteousness and your integrity, how would you do? (Would God be proud of you, would you be proud of yourself, or would you be ashamed, do you think that you have a great deal of work left to build your integrity?

To the chief Musician upon Nehiloth,

A Psalm of David. salm 5 is the 5th psalm from the Book of Psalms. Its authorship is traditionally assigned to king David. It is a reflection of how the righteous man prays for deliverance not only for freedom from suffering, but to allow himself to be able to serve God without distraction.[1]

King David wrote this Psalm during the dark hours of his life. He was worried and anxious and prays to God to help him. "Hear my cry for help, my King and my God, for to you i pray" (vs 2)

He asks God to hear his voice during the day as he sets down his requests before God and waits eagerly for God to work in his life.(vs 3)[2]

He says that the Lord destroys blood thirsty and deceitful men, but he doesn't consider himself to be like one of them which is why he can bow down in front of God.(vs 5-7)

He was most likely going for a war, which is why he asks God to lead him in his righteousness because of his enemies. (vs8)

“Lead me, Lord, in your righteousness because of my enemies – make your way straight before me."

According to King David, anyone who rebels against God should be banished. (vs10)

Verses 11 and 12 talk about how “everyone who takes refuge in God will be glad”. “This verse speaks about the privileges of the righteous. They’re blessed with - God’s protection - God’s joy - God’s love - God’s blessing - God’s protection on them.” - Also speaks about the character of the righteous – they have faith and love for the God[3]

People use this Psalm when they're in grief and they need to pray ( vs 2 , 7) or when they've won the battle and trust in the Lord to bless the righteous. (vs12)

This Psalm is apparently intended to accompany the third, and make a pair with it. If the last may be entitled THE MORNING PSALM, this from its matter is equally deserving of the title of THE EVENING HYMN. May the choice words Psalms 4:8 be our sweet song of rest as we retire to our repose!

Psalm 2 King James Version (KJV)

2 Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?

2 The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against his anointed, saying,

3 Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.

4 He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.

5 Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.

6 Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.

7 I will declare the decree: the Lord hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.

8 Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.

9 Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.

10 Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.

11 Serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice with trembling.

12 Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.
