Old/New Testament
100 Shout joyfully to the LORD, all the Earth!
2 Serve the LORD with gladness. Come before Him with joyfulness!
3 Know that the LORD is God. He has made us, and not we ourselves. We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.
4 Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, into His courts with rejoicing. Give Him thanks. Praise Him; and bless His Name.
5 For the LORD is good. His mercy is everlasting; and His truth is from generation to generation. A Psalm of David
101 I will sing mercy and judgment. To You, O LORD, I will sing!
2 I will do wisely in the perfect way, till You come to me. I will walk in the uprightness of my heart in the midst of my house.
3 I will set no wicked thing before my eyes. I hate the work of those who fall away. It shall not cling to me.
4 A perverse heart shall depart from me. I will know no evil.
5 He who secretly slanders his neighbor, I will destroy. He who has a proud look and high heart, I cannot allow.
6 My eyes shall be to the faithful of the land, so that they may dwell with me. He who walks in a perfect way, he shall serve me.
7 No deceitful person shall dwell within my house. He who tells lies shall not remain in my sight.
8 Early will I destroy all the wicked of the land, so that I may cut off all the workers of iniquity from the City of the LORD. A prayer of the afflicted, when he shall be in distress and pour forth his meditation before the LORD
102 O LORD, hear my prayer, and let my cry come to You.
2 Do not hide Your face from me in the time of my trouble. Incline Your ears to me when I call. Hurry to hear me.
3 For my days are consumed like smoke; and my bones are burnt like a hearth.
4 My heart is stricken and withered, like grass, because I forgot to eat my bread.
5 Because of the voice of my groaning, my bones cling to my skin.
6 I am like a pelican of the wilderness. I am like an owl of the deserts.
7 I watch and am as a sparrow, alone upon the house top.
8 My enemies revile me daily. Those who rage against me have sworn against me.
9 Surely, I have eaten ashes as bread and mingled my drink with weeping
10 because of Your indignation and Your wrath. For You have heaved me up and cast me down.
11 My days are like a shadow that fades; and I am withered like grass.
12 But You, O LORD, remain forever, and Your remembrance from generation to generation.
13 You will arise and have mercy upon Zion. For the time to have mercy thereon, for the appointed time, has come.
14 For Your servants, delight in the stones thereof and have pity on the dust thereof.
15 Then the heathen shall fear the Name of the LORD, and all the kings of the Earth Your Glory,
16 when the LORD shall build up Zion and shall appear in His Glory
17 and shall turn to the prayer of the desolate and not despise their prayer.
18 This shall be written for the generation to come; and the people who shall be created shall praise the LORD.
19 For He has looked down from the height of His Sanctuary. Out of the heaven did the LORD behold the Earth,
20 so that He might hear the mourning of the prisoner and deliver the children of death;
21 so that they may declare the Name of the LORD in Zion and His praise in Jerusalem
22 when the people shall be gathered together, and the kingdoms, to serve the LORD.
23 He weakened my strength on the way and shortened my days.
24 I said, “O my God, do not take me away in the midst of my days. Your years endure from generation to generation.
25 “Before time, You have laid the foundation of the Earth; and the heavens are the work of Your hands.
26 “They shall perish, but You shall endure. Indeed, they shall all wear out like a garment. You shall change them like clothing, and they shall be changed.
27 But You are the same; and Your years shall not fail.
28 The children of Your servants shall continue, and their seed shall be established in Your sight. A Psalm of David
1 Paul, a called Apostle of Jesus Christ, through the will of God, and brother Sosthenes,
2 to the Church of God, which is at Corinth; to those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus (Saints by calling) with all that call on the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ, in every place, both theirs and ours:
3 Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
4 I thank my God always on your behalf for the grace of God which is given you in Jesus Christ.
5 That in all things you are made rich in Him in every expression and in all knowledge.
6 As the testimony of Jesus Christ has been confirmed in you.
7 So that you are not deficient in any gift, awaiting the unveiling of our Lord Jesus Christ,
8 Who shall also confirm you to the end, that you may be blameless on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 God is faithful; by Whom you are called to the fellowship of his son Jesus Christ our Lord.
10 Now I urge you, brothers, by the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak one thing, and that there be no dissensions among you. But be joined together in one mind, and in one judgment.
11 For it has been declared to me, my brothers, by those who are of the house of Chloe, that there is strife among you.
12 Now I say this: that each one of you says, “I am Paul’s”, and “I am Apollos’s”, and “I am Cephas’s” and “I am Christ’s”.
13 Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized into the name of Paul?
14 I thank God that I baptized none of you, but rather Crispus and Gaius,
15 lest anyone should say that I had baptized into my own name.
16 Now I also baptized the household of Stephanas. But I do not know whether I baptized any other besides that.
17 For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the Gospel (not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of no effect).
18 For the preaching of the cross is to those who perish, foolishness. But to us who are saved, it is the power of God.
19 For it is written, “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will cast away the understanding of the prudent.”
20 Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this world? Has not God made the wisdom of this world foolishness?
21 For since, in the wisdom of God, the world in its own wisdom did not know God, it pleased God, by the foolishness of preaching, to save those who believe;
22 seeing also that the Jews require a sign, and the Grecians seek after wisdom.
23 But we preach Christ crucified, indeed a stumbling block to the Jews and foolishness to the Grecians.
24 But to those who are called, both of the Jews and Grecians, we preach Christ: the power of God and the wisdom of God.
25 For the foolishness of God is wiser than man, and the weakness of God is stronger than man.
26 For brothers, you see your calling: how that not many are wise after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble.
27 But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise. And God has chosen the weak things of the world to confound the mighty things.
28 And vile things of the world, and things which are despised, God has chosen, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are.
29 That no flesh should boast in His presence.
30 But you are of Him in Christ Jesus, Who, out of God, is made wisdom and righteousness to us, and sanctification, and redemption.
31 That it may be as it is written, ‘The one who boasts, let him boast in the Lord’.
