Psalms 16
Ready to read
1
You caused judgment to be heard from heaven; The earth feared and was quiet
2
When God arose to [establish] judgment, To save all the humble of the earth. Selah.
3
For the wrath of man shall praise You; With a remnant of wrath You will clothe and arm Yourself.
4
Make vows to the LORD your God and fulfill them; Let all who are around Him bring gifts to Him who is to be feared [with awe-inspired reverence].
5
He will cut off the spirit of princes; He is awesome and feared by the kings of the earth.
6
To the Chief Musician; according to Jeduthun [one of David's three chief musicians, founder of an official musical family]. A Psalm of Asaph. My voice rises to God, and I will cry aloud; My voice rises to God, and He will hear me.
7
In the day of my trouble I [desperately] sought the Lord; In the night my hand was[1] stretched out [in prayer] without weariness; My soul refused to be comforted.
8
I remember God; then I am disquieted and I groan; I sigh [in prayer], and my spirit grows faint. Selah.
9
You have held my eyelids open; I am so troubled that I cannot speak.
10
I have considered the ancient days, The years [of prosperity] of long, long ago.
11
I will remember my song in the night; I will meditate with my heart, And my spirit searches:
