O my soul

“The torrent of Kishon swept them away,
The ancient torrent, the torrent Kishon.

O my soul, march on with strength.

Why are you

in despair, O my soul?

And why have you become disturbed within me?

Hope in God, for I shall again praise Him

For the

help of His presence.

Why are you in despair, O my soul?

And why are you disturbed within me?

Hope in God, for I shall again praise Him,

The help of my countenance and my God.

A Psalm of David.

Bless the Lord, O my soul,

And all that is within me, bless His holy name.

My soul, my soul! I am in anguish! Oh, my heart!

My heart is pounding in me;
I cannot be silent,
Because you have heard, O my soul,
The sound of the trumpet,
The alarm of war.

And I will say to my soul, “Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years to come; take your ease, eat, drink and be merry.”’

Come

Then Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, “You have brought trouble on me by making me odious among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites; and

my men being few in number, they will gather together against me and attack me and I will be destroyed, I and my household.”

Hold them guilty, O God;

By their own devices let them fall!

In the multitude of their transgressions thrust them out,
For they are rebellious against You.

I do not sit with deceitful men,
Nor will I go with

pretenders.

Do not drag me away with the wicked

And with those who work iniquity,
Who speak peace with their neighbors,
While evil is in their hearts.

Can a

throne of destruction be allied with You,

One which devises mischief by decree?

O that You would slay the wicked, O God;

Depart from me, therefore, men of bloodshed.

If they say, “Come with us,
Let us lie in wait for blood,
Let us ambush the innocent without cause;

The thoughts of the righteous are just,
But the counsels of the wicked are deceitful.

Secret

‘Cursed is he who strikes his neighbor in secret.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’

Do not take my soul away along with sinners,

Nor my life with men of bloodshed,

Hide me from the secret counsel of evildoers,
From the tumult of those who do iniquity,

I did not sit in the circle of merrymakers,
Nor did I exult.
Because of Your hand upon me I sat alone,
For You filled me with indignation.

Unto their

How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked,
Nor stand in the

path of sinners,

Nor sit in the seat of scoffers!

Do not take my soul away along with sinners,

Nor my life with men of bloodshed,

Can a

throne of destruction be allied with You,

One which devises mischief by decree?

Do not be bound together with unbelievers; for what partnership have righteousness and lawlessness, or what fellowship has light with darkness?

Honour

Therefore my heart is glad and my glory rejoices;
My flesh also will dwell securely.

That my

soul may sing praise to You and not be silent.

O Lord my God, I will give thanks to You forever.

Awake, my glory!
Awake, harp and lyre!
I will awaken the dawn.
