         Psalm 112

        1
        Psalm 112 [1]

        Praise the LORD. [2] Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who finds great delight in his commands.
        2
        His children will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed.
        3
        Wealth and riches are in his house, and his righteousness endures forever.
        4
        Even in darkness light dawns for the upright, for the gracious and compassionate and righteous man. [3]
        5
        Good will come to him who is generous and lends freely, who conducts his affairs with justice.
        6
        Surely he will never be shaken; a righteous man will be remembered forever.
        7
        He will have no fear of bad news; his heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.
        8
        His heart is secure, he will have no fear; in the end he will look in triumph on his foes.
        9
        He has scattered abroad his gifts to the poor, his righteousness endures forever; his horn [4] will be lifted high in honor.
        10
        The wicked man will see and be vexed, he will gnash his teeth and waste away; the longings of the wicked will come to nothing.

              Today's prayer: Lead me, O LORD, in your righteousness because of my enemies-- make straight your way before me.

               Psalm 5

              1
              Psalm 5 For the director of music. For flutes. A psalm of David.
              1
              Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my sighing.
              2
              Listen to my cry for help, my King and my God, for to you I pray.
              3
              In the morning, O LORD, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait in expectation.
              4
              You are not a God who takes pleasure in evil; with you the wicked cannot dwell.
              5
              The arrogant cannot stand in your presence; you hate all who do wrong.
              6
              You destroy those who tell lies; bloodthirsty and deceitful men the LORD abhors.
              7
              But I, by your great mercy, will come into your house; in reverence will I bow down toward your holy temple.
              8
              Lead me, O LORD, in your righteousness because of my enemies-- make straight your way before me.
              9
              Not a word from their mouth can be trusted; their heart is filled with destruction. Their throat is an open grave; with their tongue they speak deceit.
              10
              Declare them guilty, O God! Let their intrigues be their downfall. Banish them for their many sins, for they have rebelled against you.
              11
              But let all who take refuge in you be glad; let them ever sing for joy. Spread your protection over them, that those who love your name may rejoice in you.
              12
              For surely, O LORD, you bless the righteous; you surround them with your favor as with a shield.
