Bible Version
Day 169 Day 170Day 171

Psalm chapter 76

1
God is known in Judah; his name is honored in Israel.
2
He has his home in Jerusalem; he lives on Mount Zion.
3
There he broke the arrows of the enemy, their shields and swords, yes, all their weapons.
4
How glorious you are, O God! How majestic, as you return from the mountains where you defeated your foes.
5
Their brave soldiers have been stripped of all they had and now are sleeping the sleep of death; all their strength and skill was useless.
6
When you threatened them, O God of Jacob, the horses and their riders fell dead.
7
But you, LORD, are feared by all. No one can stand in your presence when you are angry.
8
You made your judgment known from heaven; the world was afraid and kept silent,
9
when you rose up to pronounce judgment, to save all the oppressed on earth.
10
Human anger only results in more praise for you; those who survive the wars will keep your festivals.
11
Give the LORD your God what you promised him; bring gifts to him, all you nearby nations. God makes everyone fear him;
12
he humbles proud princes and terrifies great kings.

Psalm chapter 77

1
I cry aloud to God; I cry aloud, and he hears me.
2
In times of trouble I pray to the Lord; all night long I lift my hands in prayer, but I cannot find comfort.
3
When I think of God, I sigh; when I meditate, I feel discouraged.
4
He keeps me awake all night; I am so worried that I cannot speak.
5
I think of days gone by and remember years of long ago.
6
I spend the night in deep thought; I meditate, and this is what I ask myself:
7
"Will the Lord always reject us? Will he never again be pleased with us?
8
Has he stopped loving us? Does his promise no longer stand?
9
Has God forgotten to be merciful? Has anger taken the place of his compassion?"
10
Then I said, "What hurts me most is this--- that God is no longer powerful."
11
I will remember your great deeds, LORD; I will recall the wonders you did in the past.
12
I will think about all that you have done; I will meditate on all your mighty acts.
13
Everything you do, O God, is holy. No god is as great as you.
14
You are the God who works miracles; you showed your might among the nations.
15
By your power you saved your people, the descendants of Jacob and of Joseph.
16
When the waters saw you, O God, they were afraid, and the depths of the sea trembled.
17
The clouds poured down rain; thunder crashed from the sky, and lightning flashed in all directions.
18
The crash of your thunder rolled out, and flashes of lightning lit up the world; the earth trembled and shook.
19
You walked through the waves; you crossed the deep sea, but your footprints could not be seen.
20
You led your people like a shepherd, with Moses and Aaron in charge.

Psalm chapter 78

1
Listen, my people, to my teaching, and pay attention to what I say.
2
I am going to use wise sayings and explain mysteries from the past,
3
things we have heard and known, things that our ancestors told us.
4
We will not keep them from our children; we will tell the next generation about the LORD's power and his great deeds and the wonderful things he has done.
5
He gave laws to the people of Israel and commandments to the descendants of Jacob. He instructed our ancestors to teach his laws to their children,
6
so that the next generation might learn them and in turn should tell their children.
7
In this way they also will put their trust in God and not forget what he has done, but always obey his commandments.
8
They will not be like their ancestors, a rebellious and disobedient people, whose trust in God was never firm and who did not remain faithful to him.
9
The Ephraimites, armed with bows and arrows, ran away on the day of battle.
10
They did not keep their covenant with God; they refused to obey his law.
11
They forgot what he had done, the miracles they had seen him perform.
12
While their ancestors watched, God performed miracles in the plain of Zoan in the land of Egypt.
13
He divided the sea and took them through it; he made the waters stand like walls.
14
By day he led them with a cloud and all night long with the light of a fire.
15
He split rocks open in the desert and gave them water from the depths.
16
He caused a stream to come out of the rock and made water flow like a river.
17
But they continued to sin against God, and in the desert they rebelled against the Most High.
18
They deliberately put God to the test by demanding the food they wanted.
19
They spoke against God and said, "Can God supply food in the desert?
20
It is true that he struck the rock, and water flowed out in a torrent; but can he also provide us with bread and give his people meat?"
21
And so the LORD was angry when he heard them; he attacked his people with fire, and his anger against them grew,
22
because they had no faith in him and did not believe that he would save them.
23
But he spoke to the sky above and commanded its doors to open;
24
he gave them grain from heaven, by sending down manna for them to eat.
25
So they ate the food of angels, and God gave them all they wanted.
26
He also caused the east wind to blow, and by his power he stirred up the south wind;
27
and to his people he sent down birds, as many as the grains of sand on the shore;
28
they fell in the middle of the camp all around the tents.
29
So the people ate and were satisfied; God gave them what they wanted.
30
But they had not yet satisfied their craving and were still eating,
31
when God became angry with them and killed their strongest men, the best young men of Israel.
32
In spite of all this the people kept sinning; in spite of his miracles they did not trust him.
33
So he ended their days like a breath and their lives with sudden disaster.
34
Whenever he killed some of them, the rest would turn to him; they would repent and pray earnestly to him.
35
They remembered that God was their protector, that the Almighty came to their aid.
36
But their words were all lies; nothing they said was sincere.
37
They were not loyal to him; they were not faithful to their covenant with him.
38
But God was merciful to his people. He forgave their sin and did not destroy them. Many times he held back his anger and restrained his fury.
39
He remembered that they were only mortal beings, like a wind that blows by and is gone.
40
How often they rebelled against him in the desert; how many times they made him sad!
41
Again and again they put God to the test and brought pain to the Holy God of Israel.
42
They forgot his great power and the day when he saved them from their enemies
43
and performed his mighty acts and miracles in the plain of Zoan in the land of Egypt.
44
He turned the rivers into blood, and the Egyptians had no water to drink.
45
He sent flies among them, that tormented them, and frogs that ruined their land.
46
He sent locusts to eat their crops and to destroy their fields.
47
He killed their grapevines with hail and their fig trees with frost.
48
He killed their cattle with hail and their flocks with lightning.
49
He caused them great distress by pouring out his anger and fierce rage, which came as messengers of death.
50
He did not restrain his anger or spare their lives, but killed them with a plague.
51
He killed the first-born sons of all the families of Egypt.
52
Then he led his people out like a shepherd and guided them through the desert.
53
He led them safely, and they were not afraid; but the sea came rolling over their enemies.
54
He brought them to his holy land, to the mountains which he himself conquered.
55
He drove out the inhabitants as his people advanced; he divided their land among the tribes of Israel and gave their homes to his people.
56
But they rebelled against Almighty God and put him to the test. They did not obey his commandments,
57
but were rebellious and disloyal like their ancestors, unreliable as a crooked arrow.
58
They angered him with their heathen places of worship, and with their idols they made him furious.
59
God was angry when he saw it, so he rejected his people completely.
60
He abandoned his tent in Shiloh, the home where he had lived among us.
61
He allowed our enemies to capture the Covenant Box, the symbol of his power and glory.
62
He was angry with his own people and let them be killed by their enemies.
63
Young men were killed in war, and young women had no one to marry.
64
Priests died by violence, and their widows were not allowed to mourn.
65
At last the Lord woke up as though from sleep; he was like a strong man excited by wine.
66
He drove his enemies back in lasting and shameful defeat.
67
But he rejected the descendants of Joseph; he did not select the tribe of Ephraim.
68
Instead he chose the tribe of Judah and Mount Zion, which he dearly loves.
69
There he built his Temple like his home in heaven; he made it firm like the earth itself, secure for all time.
70
He chose his servant David; he took him from the pastures,
71
where he looked after his flocks, and he made him king of Israel, the shepherd of the people of God.
72
David took care of them with unselfish devotion and led them with skill.

Psalm chapter 79

1
O God, the heathen have invaded your land. They have desecrated your holy Temple and left Jerusalem in ruins.
2
They left the bodies of your people for the vultures, the bodies of your servants for wild animals to eat.
3
They shed your people's blood like water; blood flowed like water all through Jerusalem, and no one was left to bury the dead.
4
The surrounding nations insult us; they laugh at us and mock us.
5
LORD, will you be angry with us forever? Will your anger continue to burn like fire?
6
Turn your anger on the nations that do not worship you, on the people who do not pray to you.
7
For they have killed your people; they have ruined your country.
8
Do not punish us for the sins of our ancestors. Have mercy on us now; we have lost all hope.
9
Help us, O God, and save us; rescue us and forgive our sins for the sake of your own honor.
10
Why should the nations ask us, "Where is your God?" Let us see you punish the nations for shedding the blood of your servants.
11
Listen to the groans of the prisoners, and by your great power free those who are condemned to die.
12
Lord, pay the other nations back seven times for all the insults they have hurled at you.
13
Then we, your people, the sheep of your flock, will thank you forever and praise you for all time to come.

Psalm chapter 80

1
Listen to us, O Shepherd of Israel; hear us, leader of your flock. Seated on your throne above the winged creatures,
2
reveal yourself to the tribes of Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasseh. Show us your strength; come and save us!
3
Bring us back, O God! Show us your mercy, and we will be saved!
4
How much longer, LORD God Almighty, will you be angry with your people's prayers?
5
You have given us sorrow to eat, a large cup of tears to drink.
6
You let the surrounding nations fight over our land; our enemies insult us.
7
Bring us back, Almighty God! Show us your mercy, and we will be saved!
8
You brought a grapevine out of Egypt; you drove out other nations and planted it in their land.
9
You cleared a place for it to grow; its roots went deep, and it spread out over the whole land.
10
It covered the hills with its shade; its branches overshadowed the giant cedars.
11
It extended its branches to the Mediterranean Sea and as far as the Euphrates River.
12
Why did you break down the fences around it? Now anyone passing by can steal its grapes;
13
wild hogs trample it down, and wild animals feed on it.
14
Turn to us, Almighty God! Look down from heaven at us; come and save your people!
15
Come and save this grapevine that you planted, this young vine you made grow so strong!
16
Our enemies have set it on fire and cut it down; look at them in anger and destroy them!
17
Preserve and protect the people you have chosen, the nation you made so strong.
18
We will never turn away from you again; keep us alive, and we will praise you.
19
Bring us back, LORD God Almighty. Show us your mercy, and we will be saved.
