PRAYER PSALM 42



Baruch Ata YHVH, Elohey Yisrael, Avi.
(Bless You, YHVH - Elohim of Israel, my Father)

As the deer pants for the water brooks, so yearns my soul for You, Elohi (my God) Cha’ta’nee (my Bridegroom).  My soul thirsts for You, El Cha’ya’i (my Life), for deep calls unto deep at the noise of Your waterfalls.  You, YHVH are the only one true living Elohim.

O Abba Ba’sha’ma’yim (Father in Heaven), I used to go with the multitude.  I went with them to a building to worship You; I went with the congregation that kept Your feast days.  I even went with a voice of joy and praise.  But now because of the way my enemies reproach me, it is as if they are breaking my bones by continually calling out, and mockingly saying: “Where is your Elohim?  Where is Elohey Yisrael?”

Why does my soul feel so cast down?  Why am I so despondent?   Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?  When I remember these things, I pour out my soul within me.   My tears become my food day and night.  I will say to You, Sal’ee (my Boulder), “Why have You forgotten me?”  All Your waves and billows have gone over me.  When will I again appear before You?
 
Elohey Sh’lomee (my Peace), You will command Your lovingkindness, Your mercies in the daytime, and in the night Your faithfulness will be turned into a song within me.  Therefore I will remember You from the land of Yarden, from the Hill of Mitz’ar and from the Heights of Chermon.  For You, Yeshua’tee (my Salvation), are the only help and hope for my soul.  Even though at times I am cast down, I will praise You and give You glory.

Hallelu-Yah!!!  For You YHVH are Elohim.  You are Elohey Yisrael, Elohey Avraham, Yitzchak and Ya’acov.  Avi the Almighty reigns!

PRAYER PSALM 149


Baruch Ata,

YHVH - Elohey Yisrael, Avi

(Bless You, YHVH - Elohim of Israel, my Father).

O YHVH - Elohey Avraham, Yitzchak and Ya’acov (God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob), I praise You!  I will sing a new song of Your praise, in the assembly of the called-out ones.  We of Yisrael, who have been redeemed, rejoice in You, Bor’ey’nu (our Creator); we the children of Tziyon are joyful in You, Mal’keynu (our King).   We praise Your name, YHVH, with the dance; we sing praises to You with the timbrel and harp.  We will sing aloud on our beds and be joyful in glory.  For You, Elohey Yeshua’teynu (God of our Salvation), take pleasure in us, Your people; and You will beautify the humble among us with salvation.

O YHVH- Elohey Tzva’ot (God of the Armies), may we go out with Your high praises in our mouths and with two-edged swords in our hands; so that we may execute vengeance on the nations and punishment on the peoples; to bind their kings with chains and their nobles with fetters of iron; to execute on them the written judgment; this honor have all of us who are holy unto You, YHVH.  We praise You, YHVH - Elohey Avotey’nu (God of our Fathers)!

Hallelu-Yah!!!  For You, YHVH, are Elohim.  You are Elohey Yisrael, Elohey Avraham, Yitzchak and Ya’acov.  Avi the Almighty reigns!

PRAYER PSALM 44



Baruch Ata YHVH, Elohey Yisrael, Avi.
(Bless You, YHVH - Elohim of Israel, my Father)

I have heard with my ears and I have read in Your Word, Elohey Yisrael, the deeds that You did in the days of my/our forefathers, in the days of old.  How You, Elohey Tzva’ot (God of the Armies), with Your own hand drove out the nations that were living in our land. You afflicted those peoples and cast them out.  But because You favored my/our forefathers, You planted them and even though they had to use the sword to drive out their enemy, it was You that went out before them as a consuming fire.  It was by Y’min’cha (Your Right Hand), Abba, that they gained possession.  You even said that it was not because of their righteousness that they were going in to possess the land of promise, but for Your name sake.

Please help me/us today, El Ro’ee/Ro’enu (the One Who Sees and Provides for me/us).  I/We understand that it will not be by my/our sword, nor will my/our own arm save meus, but it will be by Y’min’cha (Your Right Hand), and by the light of Your countenance.  You favor meus because of the love that You have for my/our forefathers, and it is because of Your faithfulness to the covenant that You, Elohey Avraham, Yitzchak and Ya’acov, made with them.

But what about this generation of Your people, Elohey Yisrael? You have cast us off and put us to shame, and You do not go out with our armies.  You make us turn back from the enemy, and those who hate us have taken spoil for themselves.  They are dividing up the land and saying “Aha! The everlasting heights (Yehudah and Shomron - Judea and Samaria) have become our possession!”  You make us a reproach to our neighbors, a scorn and a derision to those all around us.  You make us a byword among the nations, a shaking of the head among the peoples.

You have severely broken us in the place of jackals, and covered us with the shadow of death.  We are like sheep intended for food.  You, El Shofet (Judge), have scattered us among the nations. For Your sake we are killed all day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.  You sell Your people for next to nothing, and get nothing in return for selling us.

Awake! Why do You sleep, Ezre’nu (our Help), Go’ale’nu  (our Redeemer)?  Arise, help us, and redeem us for Your mercies' sake! Do not cast us off.  Why do You hide Your face, and forget our affliction and our oppression?  For our soul is bowed down to the dust and our body clings to the ground.  Because of the voice of our enemies, and the reproaches and reviles of the avenger, our dishonor is continually before us, and the shame of our face has covered us.  All this has come upon us, because of sin and iniquity.  We have forgotten Your name YHVH, and have stretched out our hands to a foreign god.  You, Elohey Tzid’ke’nu (our Righteousness), have searched this out, You already know the secrets of the heart, nothing is hidden from You.

Help us, El Yeshu’atenu (God of our Salvation), not to forget Your name, nor to deal falsely with Your covenant.  Protect our heart so that it will not turn back, and our steps so that they will not depart from Your ways.

You are Mal’kee/Mel’kenu (my/our King). O Elee/Ele’nu (my/our Elohim), command victories for Ya’acov.  Through You, we will push down our enemies.  Through Your name YHVH – Yeshua’tee/Yeshua’tenu (my/our Salvation), we, the progeny of Yisrael, will trample those who rise up against us.  We will not trust in our bow, nor shall our sword save us.  But You, M’gee’nee/M’gee’nenu (my/our Protector/Shield), will save us from our enemies.   Put them to shame, Abba, those who hate us.  Thus we will boast all day long, and praise Your name, YHVH - El Elyon (God Most High), forever.

Hallelu-Yah!!!  For You YHVH are Elohim.  You are Elohey Yisrael, Elohey Avraham, Yitzchak and Ya’acov.  Avi the Almighty reigns!

Prayer Psalm 101


Baruch Ata,

 YHVH, Elohey Yisrael, Avi

(Bless You, YHVH - Elohim of Israel, my Father).

Help me, YHVH Tzid’kee (my Righteousness), to set nothing wicked before my eyes, for I do not want it to cling to me.  Deliver me from a perverse heart and make it depart from me, so that I will not know wickedness.  I hate the work of those who fall away, whoever secretly slanders his neighbor, also those who have a haughty look and a proud heart.  I know that You will not endure them forever but will destroy them.  For those who work deceit shall not dwell within Your house, and those who tell lies shall not continue in Your presence.  Early You will destroy all the wicked of the land, and cut off all the evildoers from Your holy city.  But You have said that Your eyes will be on the faithful of the land, that they will dwell with You; and those who walk in a perfect way shall serve You, Melech HaKavod (King of Glory).

I will sing of Your mercy and justice.  To You, YHVH, Shofet Tzedek (Righteous Judge), I shall sing praises.  Help me, Abba, to behave wisely in a perfect way and to walk within my house with a perfect heart.  Oh, when will You, Moshi’ee (my Savior/Deliverer), come to me?

Hallelu-Yah!!!  For You, YHVH, are Elohim.  You are Elohey Yisrael, Elohey Avraham, Yitzchak and Ya’acov.  Avi the Almighty reigns!

PRAYER PSALM 55




Baruch Ata YHVH, Elohey Yisrael, Avi.

(Bless You, YHVH - Elohim of Israel, my Father)

Give ear to my prayer, O YHVH - El Shaddai (Almighty), and do not hide Yourself from my supplication, because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked; They bring down trouble upon me, and in wrath they hate me.  Destroy and divide their tongues, for I have seen violence and strife in their cities! Day and night they go around on the walls; while iniquity, oppression, deceit, trouble and destruction are in their midst and do not depart from their streets.  Let death seize them; let them go down alive into hell, for wickedness is in their dwellings and among them.  Bring them down to the pit of destruction; for bloodthirsty and deceitful men shall not live out half their days.   Afflict them, for even those who have been from of old have not changed; they do not fear You, YHVH - Elohey Yisrael (God of Israel).

 Attend to me, Abba, and hear me.  As You can see, I am restless in my complaint, and moan noisily.  My heart is severely pained within me.  Fearfulness, trembling and the terrors of death have fallen upon me.  Horror has overwhelmed me; never the less, I will trust in You, El Ne’eman (Faithful God).

O YHVH – Miphla’tee (my Refuge), if only I had wings like a dove! I would fly away and be at rest.  Indeed, I would wander far off, and remain in the wilderness.  I would hasten my escape from this windy storm and tempest.

For it is not an enemy who reproaches me, for it were then I could bear it.  Nor is it one who hates me, who has exalted himself against me; if that were the case, I could hide from him.  But it was a close friend, a man my equal, my companion and my acquaintance.  We took sweet counsel together, and walked in Your house, Mal’kee (my King), in the midst of all those who gathered there.  The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was in his heart; his words were softer than oil, yet they were drawn swords.  He put forth his hands against those who were at peace with him, and has broken his covenant.
 
As for me, I will call upon You, Elohey Yeshua’tee (God of my Salvation), for it is only You that shall save me.  I will cast my burden upon You, Tzu’ree (my Rock), and You shall sustain me; You shall never permit the righteous to be moved.  Therefore, evening and morning, and at noon, I will pray and cry aloud to You, El Ro’ee (God Who Sees and Provides for me); for You Go’alee  (my Redeemer) hear my voice, and will redeem my soul in peace from the battle that is against me, for there are many against me.

Hallelu-Yah!!!  For You YHVH are Elohim.  You are Elohey Yisrael, Elohey Avraham, Yitzchak and Ya’acov.  Avi the Almighty reigns!

PRAYER PSALM 14


Baruch Ata YHVH, Elohey Yisrael, Avi.
(Bless You, YHVH - Elohim of Israel, my Father)

O YHVH - Yeshua’tee (my Salvation), the fool has said in his heart: "There is no Elohim."  They have all turned aside, they have together become corrupt; there is none who does good; no, not one. They are fraudulent and rebellious; they have done abominable works.  These workers of iniquity have no knowledge, they eat up Your people as they eat bread, and do not call on You, their Creator.  They will be left in great fear, because You, El Elyon (God Most High), are with the generation of the righteous.

The wicked and foolish may shame the counsel of the poor, but You, El M’tzu’datee (my Fortress), are a refuge for the poor and humble in heart.

O YHVH - El Elyon (God Most High), look down from heaven upon the children of men, and see if there are any who understand, who seek You, El HaKavod (God of Glory).

Bring back, Abba, Yeshua’tee (my Salvation), the captivity of Your people, so that the salvation of Yisrael can come out of Tziyon.  Then Ya’acov will rejoice and Yisrael will be glad.

Hallelu-Yah!!!  For You YHVH are Elohim.  You are Elohey Yisrael, Elohey Avraham, Yitzchak and Ya’acov.  Avi the Almighty reigns!

PRAYER PSALM 107




Baruch Ata

YHVH - Elohey Yisrael, Avi

(Bless You, YHVH - Elohim of Israel, my Father).

YHVH - Avinu Ba’sha’ma’yim (our Father in Heaven), we Your redeemed ones give You thanks, for You are good; and Your mercy, El Ra’chum (Compassionate God), endures forever.  For You, Go’aleynu (our Redeemer), have redeemed us from the hand of the enemy and are gathering us out of the lands, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south.

We wandered in the wilderness, in a desolate way and found no city to dwell in.  Hungry and thirsty, our souls fainted from within.  But when we cried out to You, YHVH - Mephaltey’nu (our Rescuer), in our trouble, You delivered us out of our distresses.  You led us forth by the right way, that we might go to a city for a dwelling place.

Oh, that other men would give thanks to You - YHVH - Elohey Yisrael (God of Israel), for Your goodness, and for Your wonderful works that You do amongst the children of men!  For You, El Ro’eh (God Who Sees and Provides), satisfy the longing soul and fill the hungry soul with goodness.  But because they rebelled against Your words Elohey Emet (God of Truth), and despised Your counsel, El Elyon (God Most High), You brought down their heart with labor; they fell down and there was none to help.  They sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, bound in affliction and irons.  But if they will cry out to You, YHVH - Elohey Yeshua’teynu (God of our Salvation), in their trouble, You will save them out of their distresses; You will brake their chains in pieces, and bring them out of darkness and the shadow of death. 

Oh, that men would give thanks to You, YHVH - El Ra’chum (Compassionate God), for Your goodness, and for Your wonderful works to the children of men!  But because of their transgressions and iniquities, they became fools, and their souls abhorred all manner of food and drew near to the gates of death.

Therefore You, Shofet Tzedek (Judge of Righteousness), turn their rivers into a wilderness, and the water springs into dry ground, a fruitful land into barrenness, all because of the wickedness of those who dwell in it.  They were diminished and brought low through oppression, affliction and sorrow, You pour contempt on their princes and caused them to wander in the wilderness where there is no way.

But if they will cry out to You, YHVH - Elohey Chesed (God of Mercy), in their trouble, You will save them out of their distresses.
You will send Your word and heal them, and deliver them from their destructions.  You will break the gates of bronze, and cut the bars of iron in two.  You will turn their wilderness into pools of water and dry land into water springs.  They will sow fields and plant vineyards and yield a fruitful harvest.  You will bless them and they will multiply greatly, their cattle will not decrease and there will be no one that hungers.  They will establish a city for a dwelling place.

Oh, that man would give thanks to You, YHVH for Your goodness and for Your wonderful works to the children of men!  Even those who go down to the sea in ships, who do business on great waters, have seen Your works and Your wonders in the deep.  For You command and raise the stormy wind, which lifts up the waves of the sea.  They mount up to the heavens; they go down again to the depths.   The souls of the sailors melt because of their trouble.  They reel to and fro and stagger like a drunken man and are at their wits' end.  But when they cry out to You, YHVH - El Shaddai (God Almighty), in their trouble, You will bring them out of their distresses and calm the storm, so that its waves are still.  Then they will be glad because they are quiet and You will guide them to their desired haven. Then they will sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving and declare Your works with rejoicing.

Oh, that men would give thanks to You, YHVH - Elohey Yisrael (God of Israel), for Your goodness and for Your wonderful works to the children of men!  Let them exalt You also in the assembly of the people and praise You in the company of the elders.  For You have set the poor on high, far from affliction and make their families like a flock.  The righteous sees it and rejoices, but all the iniquitous stop their mouths.  Whoever is wise will observe these things, and they will understand Your lovingkindness.

Hallelu-Yah!!!  For You, YHVH, are Elohim.  You are Elohey Yisrael, Elohey Avraham, Yitzchak and Ya’acov.  Avi the Almighty reigns!

Isaiah 12's Prayer


The short chapter of Isaiah 12 in its entirety is a prayer of confession and comfort, but also a declaration of a promise and thanksgiving. The reason for this exclamatory prayer in Isaiah 12, which begins “In that day”, is found in the verses leading up to it; Thus we read in Isaiah 11:10-16: "And in that day there shall be a Root of Jesse, Who shall stand as a banner to the people; For the nations shall seek Him, and His resting place shall be glorious. It shall come to pass in that day that YHVH shall set His hand again the second time to recover the remnant of His people who are left…  He will set up a banner for the nations, and will assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth.  Also the envy of Ephraim shall depar t, and the adversaries of Judah shall be cut off; Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah shall not harass Ephraim.  But they shall fly down upon the shoulder of the Philistines toward the west; together they shall plunder the people of the East; they shall lay their hand on Edom and Moab; and the people of Ammon shall obey them…   There will be a highway for the remnant of His people who will be left from Assyria, as it was for Israel in the day that he came up from the land of Egypt.”  Now back (and forward) to Isaiah 12:1: And in that day [being the day mentioned in 11:11] you will say: ‘O YHVH, I/we will praise You; though You were angry with me/us [Israel], Your anger is turned away, and You comfort me/us [Israel].  Behold, Elohim is my/our salvation, I/we will trust and not be afraid; 'For YAH, YHVH is my/our strength and song; He also has become my/our salvation [through Yeshua].’ Therefore with joy you/we will draw water from the wells of salvation [from the root of Jesse].  And in that day you/we will say: ‘Praise YHVH, call upon His name; declare His deeds [that is: keeping covenant and restoring the remnant of His people the whole house of Israel] among the peoples, make mention that His name is exalted.  Sing to YHVH, for He has done excellent things; this is known in all the earth [the testimony of YHVH’s faithfulness to His covenant] Cry out and shout, O inhabitant of Zion, for great is the Holy One of Israel in your midst!"  (emphases added).
What are the excellent things that YHVH has done, and is doing, other than bringing to fulfillment what He covenanted with the forefathers of Israel and Judah and what He promised through the prophets of old?  Together we can all exclaim that He is just and faithful!

Prayer Psalm 119 Bet and Gimel


BET
I can cleanse my way, YHVH - Ribon Olam (Sovereign of the Universe), by taking heed to Your word and seeking You with my whole heart.  I pray, let me not wander from Your commandments; but may I hide Your word in my heart so that I may not sin against You with my lips.  I shall declare all the judgments of Your mouth.  I shall rejoice in the way of Your testimonies, as much as in all riches.  I shall meditate on Your precepts and contemplate Your ways.  I pray, Abba, that I shall always delight myself in Your statutes and not forget Your word.  Blessed are You, O YHVH - Moree (my Teacher); continue to teach me Your statutes!


GIMEL
Deal bountifully, YHVH - Mal’kee (my King), with Your servant and open my eyes, that I may see wondrous things from Your Torah; so that I may live and keep Your word.  Because I am a stranger in the earth, do not hide Your commandments from me.  At all times, my soul longs for Your judgments and my heart’s desire is to keep Your commandments and to meditate on Your statutes.  Your testimonies also are my delight and my counselors.  I ask You, Elohey Tzedek (God of Righteousness), remove from me reproach and contempt; rebuke the proud and the cursed who stray from Your commandments, for their princes sit and speak against me.

PRAYER PSALM 19





Baruch Ata YHVH, Elohey Yisrael, Avi.

(Bless You, YHVH - Elohim of Israel, my Father)


The heavens, Abba, Elohey Yisrael, declare Your glory and the firmament reveals Your handiwork.  The heavens and the earth speak to me day after day of who You are, and night after night they reveal a knowledge of You that leaves me speechless and in awe of Your greatness.   Even though there is no audible sound of a language and their voice is not heard, never-the-less their line, their testimony, their witness of Your creative power and wisdom have gone out through all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.

O Ribon Olam (Sovereign of the Universe), Bor’ee  (my Creator), You have given to the sun the firmament for a tabernacle, its course is already set towards its final destination as it begins its rising from one end of the heavens. This can be compared to a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, rejoicing like a strong man to run his race, for his course is also set towards his final destination, the marriage feast.  Just as there is nothing hidden from the heat of the sun, so too there is nothing hidden from the love of the Bridegroom for His bride.

O YHVH - Ohavi (my Lover), Chatani (my Bridegroom), Your Torah is perfect, preparing my soul for the marriage.   Your testimony is so secure that it will turn my simple ways into a path of wisdom.   My heart will rejoice in the uprightness of Your statutes and my eyes shall be enlightened by Your commandments.  May my reverence for You be pure and untainted, enduring forever.

Your judgments are true and righteous altogether. May I desire them, El Tzidki (God my Righteousness), more than gold, yes, more than much fine gold, for they are sweeter than honey and the honeycomb.  Moreover as Your servant, I am warned by them, but if I keep them and cherish them in my heart there is a great reward.

Yes, YHVH - Go’ali  (my Redeemer), I may at times err in Your ways, Abba, but I ask You, Yeshua’tee (my Salvation), to cleanse me from hidden faults and keep me, Your servant of righteousness, from presumptuous sins. Let not the power of sin have dominion over me. Then I shall be blameless, and I shall be innocent of great transgressions.

Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, Avi, Chizki (my Strength), and Go’ali  (my Redeemer).

Hallelu-Yah!!!  For You YHVH are Elohim.  You are Elohey Yisrael, Elohey Avraham, Yitzchak and Ya’acov.  Avi the Almighty reigns!

Prayer Psalm 80


Baruch Ata, YHVH, Elohey Yisrael, Avi.
(Bless You, YHVH - Elohim of Israel, my Father)

O YHVH, Elohey Tzva’ot (God of the Armies), You have fed us, Your chosen ones, with the bread of tears and have given to us tears to drink in great measure.  You, El Ro’eh (God Who Sees and Provides), have made us an object of strife to our neighbors; and our enemies laugh at us among themselves.

As our husbandman, You brought us like a vine out of Egypt. You, Moshi’ee (my Savior/Deliverer), cast out the nations and planted us on our inheritance, in the land of Canaan.  You prepared room for us and caused our root to go deep into the soil and to grow until we filled the land.  The hills as well as the boughs of the mighty cedars were covered with the shadow of Your vineyard.  You, Elohey Chesed (God of Mercy), sent out our boughs to the sea and our branches to the river.

But because of our unfaithfulness, adultery and idolatry You, Shofet Tzedek (Judge of Righteousness), have broken down our hedges, so that all who pass by the way pluck our fruit.   The boar, out of the woods uprooted Your vineyard; and the wild beast of the field devoured it.

O YHVH – Elohey Yeshua’teynu (God of our Salvation), return.  We beseech You, Elohey Tzva’ot (God of the Armies), look down from heaven and see; visit Your vine and the vineyard which Y’min’cha (Your Right Hand) had planted, and the branch that You made strong for Yourself.  It has been burned with fire; it has been cut down; we have perished at the rebuke of Your countenance.

Restore us, O El HaKavod (God of Glory); cause Your face to shine, so that we may be saved!  Let Your hand be upon the man of Y’min’cha (Your Right Hand), upon the son of man whom You made strong for Yourself.  Revive us and we will call upon Your name; we will not turn back from You.  Restore us, O Tzur Yisrael (Rock of Israel).  Give ear, Ro’eh Yisrael (Shepherd of Israel), You who lead Yoseph like a flock; You who dwell between the cherubim, shine forth!  Before Ephraim, Binyamin, and Menasheh stir up Your strength and come and save us!  Cause Your face to shine, Elohey Yeshua’teynu (God of our Salvation), and we shall be saved!

Hallelu-Yah!!!  For You, YHVH, are Elohim.  You are Elohey Yisrael, Elohey Avraham, Yitzchak and Ya’acov.  Avi the Almighty reigns!

Prayer Psalm 47



Baruch Ata YHVH, Elohey Yisrael, Avi.

(Bless You, YHVH - Elohim of Israel, my Father)

For You, El Elyon (God Most High), are awesome.  You, Mal’kee (my King), are a great King over all the earth.  You will subdue, under the feet of Your called-out ones, nations with their people.  You will give to us the promised inheritance, the excellence of our forefather, Ya’acov, whom You love.

You, YHVH – Yeshua’tee (my Salvation), have gone up with a shout “teru’ah”, with the sound of a trumpet.  Therefore I will clap my hands with all of Your people!  I will shout unto You, YHVH - Elohey Tzva’ot (God of the Armies), with the voice of triumph!  I will sing praises to You, Ro’eh Yisrael (Shepherd of Israel), Mal’kee (my King).  I will sing praises to You, Abba!  For You are Melech (King) of all the earth. I will sing praises with my understanding, knowing that You reign over all the nations and that You, El Gadol (Great God) sit on Your kadosh (holy set-apart) throne.

All Your princes, Your chosen firstborn, out of the people of the seed of Avraham are being gathered together.  We belong to You Abba, Elohey Israel, and are Your shields, that You use for the protection of the earth.  You, Melech HaKavod (King of Glory), are worthy to be praised and to be greatly exalted.

Hallelu-Yah!!!  For You YHVH are Elohim.  You are Elohey Yisrael, Elohey Avraham, Yitzchak and Ya’acov.  Avi the Almighty reigns!

Prayer Psalm 50



PRAYER PSALM 50

Baruch Ata YHVH, Elohey Yisrael, Avi.

(Bless You, YHVH - Elohim of Israel, my Father)

O El Elyon (God Most High), You have spoken to the earth from the rising of its sun to its going down and have called out: "Hear, O My people, I am speaking to you O Yisrael, I will testify in you, that I am Elohim, Elohey Yisrael, Elohey’chem (your God)!  I am gathering to Myself My set-apart ones, those of you who have made a covenant with Me by sacrifice.  Those who have offered to Me thanksgiving and have paid their vows to Me.  Those of you who have ears to hear, I will not rebuke you for your sacrifices or your burnt offerings, which are continually before Me.  However, I will not take a bull from your house, nor goats out of your folds.  For all the beasts of the forest are Mine, and the cattle on a thousand hills.  I know all the birds of the mountains, and the wild beasts of the field are Mine.  Will I eat the flesh of bulls, or drink the blood of goats?  Even if I were hungry, I would not tell you, for the world is Mine and all its fullness”.

“But I, Elohey Tzedek (God of Righteousness), also have a word to the wicked and those who rebel against My Torah:  ‘What right have you to declare My statutes or take My covenant in your mouth, seeing You hate instruction and cast My words behind you.  You give your mouth to evil, and your tongue frames deceit. You sit and speak against your brother and you slander your own mother's son.  When you saw a thief, you consented with him, and have been a partaker with adulterers.  These things you have done, and I kept silent, you thought that I was altogether like you, but I will rebuke you, and set them in order before your eyes.   Now consider this, you who have forgotten Me, lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver, if you will repent and call upon Me in the day of trouble, I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me.  For whoever offers praise glorifies Me, and to him who orders his conduct aright I will show and reveal My salvation”.

You, YHVH - Cha’ta’nee (my Bridegroom), will shine forth out of Tziyon, the perfection of beauty.  You, Elohi (my God), shall come, and shall not keep silent.  A fire shall devour before You, and it shall be very tempestuous all around You.  O YHVH - El Shofet (Judge), You are the Judge who calls to the heavens above and to the earth, to bear witness of the judgments upon Your people, and as a result the heavens will declare Your righteousness.

Hallelu-Yah!!!  For You YHVH are Elohim.  You are Elohey Yisrael, Elohey Avraham, Yitzchak and Ya’acov.   Avi the Almighty reigns!

PRAYER PSALM 110




Baruch Ata,

YHVH, Elohey Yisrael, Avi

(Bless You, YHVH - Elohim of Israel, my Father).

YHVH, You said to Adonee (my Lord), M’shi’chee (my Messiah), "Sit at My right hand, till I make Your enemies Your footstool."

Elohey Tziyon (God of Zion), I thank You for sending out of Tziyon the Messiah, who is the rod of Your strength, to rule in the midst of Your enemies! For You, El Ne’eman (Faithful God), have sworn and will not relent, that [Yeshua] – Adonee (my Master) is a priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.

Adoni (my Lord), Yeshua’tee (my Salvation), You are at my right hand; You shall execute kings in the day of Your wrath.  You, Shofet Tzedek (Judge of Righteousness), shall judge among the nations; You shall fill the places with dead bodies and execute the heads of many nations.  Your people, Elohey Yisrael (God of Israel), shall be willing volunteers in the day of Your power.  For in the beauty of holiness, from the womb of the morning, You, Mal’kee (my King), have the dew of Your youth.  Therefore You will lift up Your head when You drink from the brook by the wayside.

Hallelu-Yah!!!  For You, YHVH, are Elohim.  You are Elohey Yisrael, Elohey Avraham, Yitzchak and Ya’acov.  Avi the Almighty reigns!

PRAYER PSALM 11



Baruch Ata YHVH, Elohey Yisrael, Avi.
(Bless You, YHVH - Elohim of Israel, my Father)

You, YHVH - El Kadosh (Holy/Set-Apart), dwell on Mount Tziyon in Mikdash Kodshe’cha (Your Set-Apart Temple), Your throne is in heaven; and Your eyes behold, Your eyelids test the sons of men.

I don’t understand, Abba, how You can say to my soul, "Flee as a bird to Your mountain"?  For look!  The wicked bend their bow, they have inserted their arrows into the bow string, that they may shoot secretly at the upright in heart.  So what can the righteous do if our foundations are broken down? But You, YHVH – Tzur Yisrael (Rock of Israel), are a sure foundation for all those who will put there trust in You. 

You, El Shofet (Judge), may test the righteous, but the wicked and the one who loves violence Your soul hates. Upon the wicked You will rain coals; fire and brimstone and a burning wind shall be the portion of their cup.  For You, YHVH - El Tzid’kee, (my Righteousness), are righteous, You love righteousness; Your countenance beholds the upright. Therefore, in You, YHVH –Elohey Yisrael, I will put my trust.

Hallelu-Yah!!!  For You YHVH are Elohim.  You are Elohey Yisrael, Elohey Avraham, Yitzchak and Ya’acov.  Avi the Almighty reigns!
