Welcome back to the Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible, where I gently read the King James Version of Scripture, set to calm, reflective music to help you unwind, find comfort, and rest in God’s Word.
In this peaceful episode, we continue our journey through the Book of Psalms, reading chapters 43 through 60—a collection of heartfelt prayers and songs that carry us from despair to hope, from fear to faith, and from silence to song.
David and other psalmists pour out their hearts before God, crying for justice, deliverance, and mercy. Yet even in moments of anguish, they find confidence in God’s steadfast love and unshakable strength.
As you listen, allow these timeless verses to remind you that no matter what troubles surround you, the Lord is your refuge, your defender, and the restorer of your soul. Let His Word quiet your thoughts and fill your heart with peace before you sleep.
Highlighted Verses:

• Psalm 43:5 — “Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope in God.”
• Psalm 46:1 — “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.”
• Psalm 51:10 — “Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.”
• Psalm 55:22 — “Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee.”
• Psalm 57:1 — “Be merciful unto me, O God… yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge.”
• Psalm 60:12 — “Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.”

As the psalmist learned to trust in the night, so too may you rest securely, knowing that the same God who heard David’s cries hears yours still.
God Bless.
