With “Your Daily Psalm” I’m Chris Laning from
NeighborhoodStage.com. As always I’ll be reading from the NET Bible
at NETBible.org.

Psalm 111
Praise the Lord!
I will give thanks to the Lord with my whole heart,
in the assembly of the godly and the congregation.
2 The Lord’s deeds are great,
eagerly awaited by all who desire them.
3 His work is majestic and glorious,
and his faithfulness endures forever.
4 He does amazing things that will be remembered;
the Lord is merciful and compassionate.
5 He gives food to his faithful followers;
he always remembers his covenant.
6 He announced that he would do mighty deeds for his people,
giving them a land that belonged to other nations.
7 His acts are characterized by faithfulness and justice;
all his precepts are reliable.
8 They are forever firm,
and should be faithfully and properly carried out.
9 He delivered his people;
he ordained that his covenant be observed forever.
His name is holy and awesome.
10 To obey the Lord is the fundamental principle for wise
living;
all who carry out his precepts acquire good moral insight.
He will receive praise forever.

A psalm of David.
Here is the Lord’s proclamation to
my lord:
“Sit down at my right
hand until I make your enemies your footstool!”
2 The Lord extends your dominion from Zion.
Rule in the midst of your enemies!
3 Your people willingly follow
you when you go into battle.
On
the holy hills at sunrise the dew of
your youth belongs to you.
4 The Lord makes this promise on
oath and will not revoke it:
“You are
an eternal priest after the pattern of Melchizedek.”
5 O Lord, at your right hand
he strikes down kings in the day he
unleashes his anger.
6 He executes
judgment against the nations;
he fills the valleys with corpses;
he shatters their heads over the vast battlefield.
7 From the stream along
the road he drinks;
then he lifts up his head.
