PRAYER
PSALM א
Baruch
Ata YHVH, Elohey Yisrael, Avinu
(Bless You, YHVH - Elohim of Israel, our
Father)
We are
blessed by You, Avinu, when we do not walk in the counsel of the ungodly, nor
stand in the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of the scornful, but our
delight is in Your Torah, YHVH - Elohey Yisrael, and in Your Torah we will meditate
day and night. For then we shall be like
a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth its fruit in its
season; our leaf also shall not wither and whatever we do we will prosper.
However,
the lawless (or ungodly) are not so, but are like the chaff which the
wind drives away. Therefore the ungodly
shall not stand in Your judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the
righteous.
For You,
YHVH - Elohey Tzid’kenu (our Righteousness), know the way of the
righteous, but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
Hallelu-Yah!!! For You, YHVH, are Elohim. You are Elohey
Yisrael, Elohey Avraham, Yitzchak and Ya’acov.
Avinu the Almighty reigns!
These Prayer Psalms do not
endeavor to be yet another translation of scripture, but rather have been
altered and rearranged to emphasize the importance of the identity of the God
of Israel and our personal relationship to Him.
They are intended mainly for personal use.
