Psalm 1
1. BLESSED is the man
that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way
of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
2. But his delight is in the law of the Lord: and in his law doth he
meditate day and night.
3. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that
bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither;
and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
4. The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth
away.
5. Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in
the congregation of the righteous.
6. For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the
ungodly shall perish.
Psalm 2
1. Why do the
heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
2. The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel
together, against the Lord, and against his anointed, saying,
3. Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.
4. He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them
in derision.
5. Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore
displeasure.
6. Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.
7. I will declare the decree: the Lord hath said unto me, Thou art my
Son; this day have I begotten thee.
8. Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance,
and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.
9. Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in
pieces like a potter's vessel.
10. Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the
earth.
11. Serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
12. Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his
wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their
trust in him.
Psalm 3
1. Lord, how are
they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.
2. Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God.
Selah.
3. But thou, O Lord, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of
mine head.
4. I cried unto the Lord with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy
hill. Selah
5. I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the Lord sustained me.
6. I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set
themselves against me round about.
7. Arise, O Lord; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine
enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly.
8. Salvation belongeth unto the Lord: thy blessing is upon thy people.
Selah.
