Today's bible teaching: The senseless man does not know, fools do not understand

 Psalm 92

1

Psalm 92 A psalm. A song. For the Sabbath day.

1

It is good to praise the LORD and make music to your name, O Most High,

2

to proclaim your love in the morning and your faithfulness at night,

3

to the music of the ten-stringed lyre and the melody of the harp.

4

For you make me glad by your deeds, O LORD; I sing for joy at the works of your hands.

5

How great are your works, O LORD, how profound your thoughts!

6

The senseless man does not know, fools do not understand,

7

that though the wicked spring up like grass and all evildoers flourish, they will be forever destroyed.

8

But you, O LORD, are exalted forever.

9

For surely your enemies, O LORD, surely your enemies will perish; all evildoers will be scattered.

10

You have exalted my horn ^[1] like that of a wild ox; fine oils have been poured upon me.

11

My eyes have seen the defeat of my adversaries; my ears have heard the rout of my wicked foes.

12

The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon;

13

planted in the house of the LORD, they will flourish in the courts of our God.

14

They will still bear fruit in old age, they will stay fresh and green,

15

proclaiming, "The LORD is upright; he is my Rock, and there is no wickedness in him."

Today's bible teaching: Therefore, you kings, be wise; be warned, you rulers of the earth.

Psalm 2

1

Psalm 2

1

Why do the nations conspire ^[1] and the peoples plot in vain?

2

The kings of the earth take their stand and the rulers gather together against the LORD and against his Anointed One. ^[2]

3

"Let us break their chains," they say, "and throw off their fetters."

4

The One enthroned in heaven laughs; the Lord scoffs at them.

5

Then he rebukes them in his anger and terrifies them in his wrath, saying,

6

"I have installed my King ^[3] on Zion, my holy hill."

7

I will proclaim the decree of the LORD: He said to me, "You are my Son ^[4] ; today I have become your Father. ^[5]

8

Ask of me, and I will make the nations your inheritance, the ends of the earth your possession.

9

You will rule them with an iron scepter ^[6] ; you will dash them to pieces like pottery."

10

Therefore, you kings, be wise; be warned, you rulers of the earth.

11

Serve the LORD with fear and rejoice with trembling.

12

Kiss the Son, lest he be angry and you be destroyed in your way, for his wrath can flare up in a moment. Blessed are all who take refuge in him.

Psalm 25

1

Psalm 25 Of David. 

1

To you, O LORD, I lift up my soul;

2

in you I trust, O my God. Do not let me be put to shame, nor let my enemies triumph over me.

No one whose hope is in you will ever be put to shame, but they will be put to shame who are treacherous without excuse.

4

Show me your ways, O LORD, teach me your paths;

5

guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long.

6

Remember, O LORD, your great mercy and love, for they are from of old.

Remember not the sins of my youth and my rebellious ways; according to your love remember me, for you are good, O LORD.

8

Good and upright is the LORD; therefore he instructs sinners in his ways.

9

He guides the humble in what is right and teaches them his way.

10

All the ways of the LORD are loving and faithful for those who keep the demands of his covenant.

11

For the sake of your name, O LORD, forgive my iniquity, though it is great.

12

Who, then, is the man that fears the LORD? He will instruct him in the way chosen for him.

13

He will spend his days in prosperity, and his descendants will inherit the land.

14

The LORD confides in those who fear him; he makes his covenant known to them.

15

My eyes are ever on the LORD, for only he will release my feet from the snare.

16

Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted.

17

The troubles of my heart have multiplied; free me from my anguish.

18

Look upon my affliction and my distress and take away all my sins.

19

See how my enemies have increased and how fiercely they hate me!

20

Guard my life and rescue me; let me not be put to shame, for I take refuge in you.

21

May integrity and uprightness protect me, because my hope is in you.

22

Redeem Israel, O God, from all their troubles!
