PRAYER PSALM 112

Baruch Ata,

 YHVH, Elohey Yisrael, Avi

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

Hallelu-Yah!  YHVH, Elohey Emet (God of Truth), You have spoken in Your word that if I fear Your name and greatly delight in Your commandments, my descendants will be mighty on earth.

If I am kind, full of compassion, righteous, dealing graciously, giving to the poor, lending and dispersing, and guiding my affairs with discretion, then wealth and riches will be in my house, and my righteousness will endure forever.

Surely I shall never be shaken; I shall not be afraid of evil tidings; and my heart will be steadfast, trusting in You, Tzid’kee (my Righteousness); and then my heart will be established.  I shall not be afraid, when I look upon my enemies.   Because You are Elohey Chezki (God my strength), I shall endure forever; my horn will be exalted with honor.  The wicked will see it and be grieved; he will gnash his teeth and melt away; and his desire shall perish. But You, Ribon Olam (Sovereign of the Universe), will bless the generation of the upright; and upon them there will arise light in the darkness. For the righteous will be in everlasting remembrance.

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

PRAYER PSALM 4

Baruch Ata

YHVH - Elohey Yisrael, Avi

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

Hear me when I call unto You Abba, for You are Elohey Yeshua’tee, (God of my Salvation)! You will hear my prayer, and relieved me in my distress; and have mercy on me, Your child.  How long, Abba will the sons of men, turn my glory to shame? How long will they love worthlessness and seek falsehood?

I know that You, YHVH, are Kadosh (Holy/Set-Apart), and have set me apart for Yourself, for the purpose of godliness. Therefore, I pray, Abba, that my anger will not lead to sin.  May I meditate within my heart on my bed, and be still before You.  I will offer the sacrifices of righteousness by putting my faith and trust in You, YHVH - El Tzid’kee (my Righteousness).

There are many who say, "Who will show us any good?" Therefore, El Oree (my Light), lift up the light of Your countenance upon me, for You have put gladness in my heart, more than in the season that the grain and wine are in abundance.  O YHVH - El Sh’lomee (my Peace), I will both lie down in peace and sleep; for You alone, Abba, Ro’yee (my Shepherd), make me dwell in safety. 

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

Prayer Psalm 145

Baruch Ata,

YHVH, Elohey Yisrael, Avi

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

You, YHVH, are El Gadol (Great God); and You are greatly to be praised; Your greatness is unsearchable.  I will meditate on the glorious splendor of Your majesty, El HaKavod (God of Glory), and on Your wondrous works.  I will declare Your greatness.

Men shall speak of the might of Your awesome acts.  They shall utter the memory of Your great goodness and sing of Your righteousness.  One generation shall praise Your works to another and shall declare Your mighty acts; for You, El Shaddai (God Almighty), uphold all who fall and raise up all who are bowed down.  The eyes of all look expectantly to You; and You will give them their food in due season; for You, El Ro’eh (God Who Sees and Provides), open Your hand and satisfy the desire of every living thing.

You, Elohey Tzedek (God of Righteousness) are righteous in all Your ways, gracious in all Your works.  You, Elohey Emet (God of Truth), are near to all who call upon You, to all who call upon You in truth.  You will fulfill the desire of those who fear You; You also will hear their cry and save them.  You, Shofet Tzedek (Judge of Righteousness), preserve all who love You; but all the wicked You will destroy.

You, El Ra’chum (Compassionate God), are gracious and full of compassion, slow to anger and great in mercy.  You are good to all, and Your tender mercies are over all Your works.  Yes, all Your works shall praise You, Melech HaKavod (King of Glory);

Your called-out ones shall bless You.  They shall speak of the glory of Your kingdom and talk of Your power, in order to make known to the sons of men Your mighty acts and the glorious majesty of Your kingdom. Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and Your dominion endures throughout all generations.

I will extol You, Elohi (my God), Mal’kee (my King).  I will bless Your name, YHVH, forever and ever.  Every day I will bless You, Elohey Yeshua’tee (God of my Salvation); and I will praise Your name.  My mouth shall speak Your praises, and all flesh shall bless Your holy name forever and ever.  

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

Prayer Psalm 53

Baruch Ata, Y'HoVaH, Elohey Yisrael, Avi.

(Bless You, Y'HoVaH - Elohim of Israel, my Father)

O YHVH - Ribon Olam (Sovereign), You look down from heaven upon the children of men to see if there are any who understand, who seek after You and Your kingdom.  Every one of them has turned aside; they have together become corrupt; there is none who does good - no, not one.  In their foolish hearts they have said, “There is no Elohim”.  They are corrupt and have committed abominable iniquity; there is none who does good.

Abba, M’gee’nee (my Protector/Shield), have the workers of iniquity no knowledge, who eat up Your people, Yisrael, as they eat bread and who do not call upon You?  O Y'HoVaH – Mephal’tee (my Rescuer), put them in great fear where there is no fear and scatter the bones of those who encamp against us (Israel and Judah); put them to open shame, for You have rejected them.

O, that the salvation of Yisrael would come out of Tziyon!  When You, Ro’eh Yisrael (Shepherd of Israel), bring back the captivity of Your people, then Ya’acov will rejoice and all Yisrael will be glad. 

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

Prayer Psalm 47

Baruch Ata Y’HOVAH, Elohey Yisrael, Avi'nu.

(Praise You, Y’HOVAH - Elohim of Israel, our Father)

For You, El Elyon (God Most High), are awesome.  You, Mal’ke'nu (our 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, Y’HOVAH – Yeshua’te'nu (our Salvation), have gone up with a shout, with the sound of a trumpet.  Therefore we will clap our hands with all of Your people!  We will shout unto You, Y’HOVAH - Elohey Tzva’ot (God of the Armies), with the voice of triumph!  We will sing praises to You, Ro’eh Yisrael (Shepherd of Israel), Mal’ke'nu (our King).  We will sing praises to You, Abba!  For You are Melech (King) of all the earth. We will sing praises with our 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 Y’HOVAH are Elohim.  You are Elohey Yisrael, Elohey Avraham, Yitzchak and Ya’acov.  Avi'nu the Almighty reigns!

PRAYER PSALM 34

Baruch Ata Y’HoVaH, Elohey Yisrael, Avi.

(Bless You, Y’HoVaH - Elohim of Israel, my Father)

I will bless You, Abba, at all times, and Your praise shall continually be in my mouth.  My soul shall make its boast in, You Y'shu’ati (my Salvation), and all those who are humble shall hear of it and be glad.  For when this poor man cries out and seeks You El Go’ali (my Redeemer), You hear me, and will deliver me from all my fears, and save me out of all my troubles.

I have tasted and have seen that You, Y’HoVaH, are good and that You have blessed me as I put my trust in You.  You even place Your angels around me to deliver me when I stand in awe of You.  When I look upon You, El Cha’ya’i (my Life), I will not be ashamed, but my face will be radiant with joy.

A young lion may lack and suffer hunger, but if I seek You, El Shadai (Almighty), with all my heart, I shall not lack any good thing.  For there is truly no want when I have this reverences for You, El Elyon (Most High).

I pray that I may be a testimony, teaching others through example, reverence for You, Malki (my King).  For if I keep my tongue from evil, my lips from speaking deceit, departing from evil and doing good, seeking peace and pursuing it, then I will live long on the earth and see goodness all the days of my life.

Your eyes, El Tzidki (God my Righteousness), are on the righteous and Your ears are open to their cry.  You hear them and You deliver them out of all their troubles.  But Your face, El Shofet (Judge), is against those who do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.  Evil shall slay the wicked, and those who hate the righteous shall be condemned.  But You, Keren Yish’ee (Horn of my Salvation), are near to those who have a broken heart, and You save such as have a contrite spirit.  For many are the afflictions of the righteous, but You will even guard his bones that none will be broken.  You Mephalti (my Deliverer), will redeem and deliver the soul of Your servant and none who put their trust in You will be condemned.

Oh, magnify Y’HoVaH - Elohi (my Elohim) with me, and let us exalt His name together.

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

PRAYER PSALM 37

Baruch Ata YHVH, Elohey Yisrael, Avi.

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

O YHVH - El Sh’lomee (my Peace), You have instructed me not to fret nor be envious because of evildoers who prosper in their ways, through scheming wicked works of iniquity.  They borrow and do not pay back.  They plot against the just and gnash at them with their teeth.  The wicked watch the righteous and seek to slay them.  These evildoers have drawn their sword and have bent their bow, so that they may cast down the poor and needy and slay those who are of upright conduct.

O YHVH - El Shofet (Judge), I have seen the wicked in great power and spreading themselves like native green trees.  But You laugh at them, You see that their day is coming.  For You have spoken, that yet a little while and the lawless shall be no more.  Indeed, evildoers shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb, like the splendor of the meadows that vanish in the heat of the summer sun, or like smoke that dissipates as it rises into the sky.  Even the descendants of the wicked shall be cut off and their place shall be no more.  Indeed, they would not be found even if someone would hunt for them.  Your enemies, Elohey Tzva’ot (God of the Armies), shall perish, their sword shall enter their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.  Transgressors shall be destroyed together and cut off, the future of the wicked shall be cursed by You, the arms of the wicked shall be broken.  Yes, they will perish, pass away and be no more.

But as for me, Abba Ba’sha’ma’yim (Father in Heaven), I pray that You will help me to cease from anger, forsake wrath, and not be fretful nor envious for it only leads to harm.  But may I be like those who wait upon You, Elohey Cha’ya’i (my Life), for only then will I inherit the land.

You have promised in Your Word, Elohey Emet (God of Truth), if I put my trust in You, resting, waiting patiently and doing good, then I will dwell in the land and feed on Your faithfulness. And if I delight myself in You, El Sim’cha’tee (my Joy), You shall give me the desires of my heart.  Therefore I ask You for the wisdom, that I may truly commit my way to You Elohey Tzid’kee (my Righteousness), and trust You, that You may bring it to pass.  Yes, Abba, bring forth through me Your righteousness and Your justice, as the light of the noonday sun.

O El Sh’lomee (my Peace), You have said that the meek shall inherit the earth, and that they shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.  They shall not be ashamed in the evil time, but in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.  For those blessed by You El Shaddai (Almighty) shall inherit the earth. O YHVH - Yo’a’tzee (my Counselor), You have declared that what a righteous man has is better than the riches of many wicked.  For the righteous show mercy and give, and You delight in their ways.  You know their days and You uphold them, that their inheritance shall be forever.

The steps of a man are established by You, El Elyon (God Most High), and though he fall he shall not be utterly cast down; for You, Yeshua’tee (my Salvation), uphold him with Y’min’cha (Your Right Hand), Who is mighty.  King David said that when he was young, and even in his old age he never saw the righteous forsaken, nor his descendants begging for bread.

Help me, Abba, to depart from evil, and to do good, to be merciful and to lend, that I may dwell in the land and live.  For You, Mal’kee (my King), love justice, and will not forsake Your called-out one, but will keep and preserve me and cause me to inherit the land and dwell in it.  May Your Torah be in my heart that I may speak wisdom with my mouth and with my tongue talk of justice.  For it is You who will keep my steps from slipping and will bless my descendants.

For if I wait upon You, YHVH - Ro’eh Yisrael (Shepherd of Israel), and keep Your ways, I will inherit the land.  I will also see the wicked cut off, because You, M’gee’nee (my Protector/Shield), will not leave me in their hands to be condemned by them.  You will deliver me from them and save me.

I thank you, Moshi’ee (my Savior/Deliverer), for You mark the blameless and observe the upright and give peace, strength and salvation in time of trouble; therefore, I will put my trust in You, Ribon Olam (Sovereign of the Universe).

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