Batyah Ginzberg has rewritten and reinterpreted the Hebrew Psalms originally written by King David in an effort to achieve an impact on spiritual healing. They have a traditional Jewish orientation. Batyah Ginzberg views HASHEM as gender rich in gender orientation possessing characteristics present universally in both genders and as a non-physical imageless spiritual entity, not a mortal human being or a ghost. The Psalms included are Psalms 78-150.

Psalm 112

A Psalm  of BatYAH:

HalleluYAH. Happy is the man who fears YAH, our God, who is arduously devoted to Her commandments: Her children will grow up to be mighty in our land, a blessed generation of righteous daughters and sons: Wealth and riches are in Her house, and Her kindness lasts forever: A bright light shines for the righteous in the darkness, She is gracious, loving and kind: All goes well with the people who give to charity graciously and who conduct all affairs with equity: The people who act righteously will never be shaken, kind people will be remembered forever: She is not afraid of the darkness of evil tidings, her heart is firm, she trusts in Her: Her heart is resolute, she is unafraid, in the end she will see the fall of her foes: She gives freely to the poor, her kindness lasts forever, her shofar is exalted in honor: The wicked man shall see it and be vexed, he shall gnash his teeth, his courage shall fail: The desire of the wicked shall come to nothing:





 

Psalm 113

A Song of Great Ascents: Of BatYAH:

HalleluYAH! O servants of God, give praise, praise Her name YAH: Let the name of YAH be blessed from now and forever: From east to west, the name YAH, the name of God is praised: She is exalted above all nations, Her glory is above the heavens: Who is like Her? Who enthroned on high, sees what is below, in heaven and on earth? She helps feed the poor and raises them from the dust, lifts up the needy from the refuse heap, to set them with the great, with the great women and men of Her People: She sets the childless women among Her household as happy executive directors of corporations: HalleluYAH!

 

Psalm 114

When You O God freed us, freed the Israelites from Egypt, the House of Sarah, Rivka, Rachel and Leah--You, O YAH, freed us from a people of a strange speech: Dinah became Her holy one, Her sanctuary: The Motherland of Israel became Her dominion: The Sea of Reeds opened and saw the Egyptians and they fled: Jordan ran backwards, mountains skipped like sheep and hills like rams: Tremble O earth, at the presence of our God, at the presence of the God of Rachel and Leah, who turned the rock into a pool of water, after Moses struck it, and She turned flinty rock into a streaming fountain:

Psalm 115

A Psalm, A Song, A Prayer: Of Batyah:

When they say "Where is your God now??" as they persecute you and you become lowly, and when you become an orphan, or a widow or a stranger, fatherless, motherless: Know that that is exactly when God will show Her love to you: When you have been beaten down and supposedly destroyed: That is when you will see God and experience Her: You will not experience Her when you build a golden calf or give rise to an idol: When you doubt Her existence, and raise a material object in Her place, is when She will leave you to the destruction of your enemies: You will not be able to see, hear, or feel, smell or touch if you erect a false god: If you die, if you do not take care of yourself, what good will you be to Her: It will be a waste of a life that could have been meant to praise Her to help others: May God increase your numbers: Not only of your offspring: But all that you do that is meant to help others and time spent to be more than a bump on a log: HalleluYAH:

 

Psalm 116

Song of Ascents: Of Batyah:

Love: I love You O God: S/He answers me when I pray: The bad guy dies, the good guy goes on to survive: We do not laugh when the bad guy dies, or S/He will bring the same misfortune upon us: S/He will bless Israel: If you Stand For Israel: S/He will bless you: What is Zion: What is Israel: Is it a place, a location, or is it a state of mind: A state of the heart: To not hurt another, no matter how much they hurt you: Is this the state of mind S/He wishes for you: Or is it to stay alive at no matter what the cost is: S/He wants you to live: If you are just and treating others with compassion: S/He will treat you with compassion so you will know how to treat others: If you fail, S/He will forgive you: But you cannot do it again: If you do it again: You must rectify your failings: And then cease your sinning: Be at rest, and know that S/He wants you to be happy: And S/He will protect you when you are simple: When you have no malice towards anyone: You must trust HASHEM and trust others: If you fail in your trust of God, You will not reap of God's rewards: If you fail in the trust of others: ADONAI will renew your faith through your trust in Her/Him: S/He does not want you to fail: HASHEM wants you to succeed: But it is between you and HASHEM, ask Him/Her personally, in prayer and by oath, to help you and then help yourself: Be HASHEM's servant and in turn, God will love you and help you:


 

Psalm 117

Song of Ascents: Of Batyah:

"God's love is steadfast and eternal" is the essence of Psalm 117--"so praise Her," "all nations": What does it mean to love God: God is always there: When you send an email and do not get a reply: God is there: When you want someone to smile at you and you just get a frown: God is there: When someone tells you they will never leave you, but they leave: God is there: When someone you love says they do not love you back: God is there: When your boss fires you: God is there: When your wife/husband divorces you: God is there: When, God forbid, you lose a loved one like a parent or a child: God is there: Why is S/he there? Because S/he loves you:

 

Psalm 118

Song of Ascents: Of Batyah:
 
YAH, teach us the meaning of Your love: Is loving a God just for Christians, or is this something we can all allow ourselves to feel: How can we love and fear You at the same time: Is love possible if there is fear: Which is better, to love or to fear: Can they be separated: Is it the fear of bad things happening to bad people that keeps us loving You: Or can we make our love for You unconditional: A love that exists no matter what happens: If bad people do not love You, is this a reason for us to follow the wrong crowd, a multitude of the 86% of the world who does bad things and gets away with it: Or do they get away with it: The punishment of the wicked is not in this world: It is in the next: Scoff at resurrection or reincarnation, and when it comes, you will have eternity spent in Sheol: If you are good, and trying to stay good: Do not be influenced by the bad: God will help you, but you must help yourself and help others: You do not live alone in the world: Take refuge in YAH and She will come through to help you, deny Her and She will extinguish you and you will live as one the stinging bees, but die as one day you will be stung yourself:

 

Psalm 119

A Song of Ascents: Of Batyah:

Trouble--glaring you in the face, unless the Torah Commandments are followed to a T. The teachings of the Torah are just and good: If someone else does not follow them, let the woe be upon them and not you: Keep reading Torah and keep learning its teachings: No one is too well-read that they can stop reading them: These teachings must be drilled into your psyche: If you depart from them, lightening will not strike your telephone post, it will strike you on the head: Keep an open Torah, not just on Mondays, Thursdays, and Saturdays; but on all days of the week: Learn your Parashat for the week, if you studied it last year, that is no excuse, study it this year too: Keep attentive, keep listening for what you are to do to help your family, your community: YAH or HASHEM, which ever name for God you pray to, S/He must be followed and obeyed: If you say "bad things happen to good people" this is no reason to disobey the 613 Commandments: If you are good, you obey: The first most important Commandment is to save your own life: All other Commandments must be broken to follow this one Commandment: Follow it and stay alive to do more mitzvot: You do not exist alone: You exist with God, and your community: Make sure God's teachings are not taken lightly: Follow them, and yes, you are obliged to teach them: If you do not have children, teach them to whoever you can positively influence about the goodness of these teachings:

 

Psalm 120

A Song of Ascents:

In my distress I call to YAH, and She answered me: O God, save me from treacherous lips, from a deceitful tongue! What can you profit, what can you gain, O lying tongue? The opponent's powerful guns, with bullets like daggers: I am sad that I live with Palestinians, that I dwell among the families of terrorists: Too long have I lived among those who hate peace. I am all peace, but when I speak, they are for war:

Psalm 121

A Song for Ascents:

I turn my eyes to the mountains, from where will my help come? My help comes from YAH, who gave birth to heaven and earth: She will not let you trip, your Mother will not sleep, See your Mother, the guardian of Israel neither slumbers nor sleeps! God is your guardian, She is your nurturer and your protection at your right hand side: By day the sun will not spank you, nor the moon by night: She will guard you from all harm: She will guard your life: She will help you with your going and coming now and forever:

 

Psalm 122

A Song of Ascents:

I rejoiced when they said to me, "We are going to the synagogue." Our feet stood inside your gates O Jerusalem, Jerusalem built up a city knit together, to which all Jews would visit and maybe live someday, the people of YAH, as was enjoined upon Israel, to compliment YAH, to praise Her: There the Torah Stands of the Shuls of Sarah, Rivka, Rachel, and Leah: Daven for the well-being of the Motherland of Israel: May those who love you be at peace: May there be comfort within your doors, peace in your sanctuaries: For the sake of my family and friends, I pray for your well-being, for the sake of our Shul, I seek your good:
 
 

Psalm 123

A Song of Ascents:

To You, enthroned in heaven, I turn my eyes: As the eyes of children follow their mother's hand, as the eyes of a child follows her father's hand too, so our eyes are toward God, awaiting Her favor: Show us favor O YAH, show us favor! We have had more than enough of hatred: Long enough have we endured the scorn of the bigoted, the contempt of the racist:

 

Psalm 124

A Song of Ascents: Of Batyah:

Were it not for YAH, God, who was on our side, let Israel declare now, were it not for Her, who was on our side when men rocketed us, they would have burned us alive in their warring rage for us, the guns would have blown us away, the bombs destroyed our cities, over us would have swept fierce fires and death: Blessed is God, who did not let us be ripped apart by their teeth: We are like seagulls escaped from polluted waters, the waters were purified and we drank and were no longer thirsty: Our help is the name of YAH, who gave birth to heaven and earth:

 

Psalm 125

A Song of Ascents:

Those who trust in God are like Mount Zion that cannot be moved, enduring forever: Jerusalem, hills enfold it, and God enfolds Her people now and forever: The weapons of bad people shall never rest upon the land allotted to the righteous, that the righteous continue to be righteous: Do good O YAH to the good, to the true and kind in heart: But when those do wrong, let Her make them go the way of the wicked: May it be well with the people of Israel:

 

Psalm 126

Song of Ascents:

When YAH restores the richness of Israel we see it as in a dream, our mouths shall be filled with laughter, our tongues with songs of joy: Then shall they say among the nations, that God has done great things for them! She will do great things for us and we shall rejoice:

 

Psalm 127

A Song of Ascents: Of Batyah:

Unless YAH decorates the house, the builders labor in vain on it: Unless God polices the city, the CIA keeps vigil in vain: In vain do you wake up early and stay up late you who work at a job to earn a living, She blesses Her loved ones with a good night's sleep: Daughters are the blessings of YAH, the fruit of the womb, Her reward: Like flowers in the hands of a peacemaker are daughters born to a couple in their youth: Happy is the mother and father who fills their flowerpots with them, they shall not be put to shame when they contend with the enemy at the gate:

 

Psalm 128

A Song of Ascents:

Ecstatic are all who fear and also love God: who follow Her ways: You shall enjoy the fruits of your gardening: You shall be joyous and you shall prosper: Your spouse shall be a fruitful vine in your house: your children like olive saplings around your table: So shall the person who fears and loves YAH will be blessed: May God bless you from Zion, may you share in the riches of Jerusalem, all the days of your life and live to see your grandchildren, May all be well with Israel!

 

Psalm 129

A Song of Ascents:

Since I was a child, they often assailed me, let Israel now declare, since I was a child they often assailed me, but they have never overcome me: Men with lawn mowers have mowed across my back, they made long furrows: YAH, the righteous One has yellowed the grass of bad people: Let all who hate Israel fall back in disgrace, let them be like poison ivy in forests, that fade before winter, that cannot be harvested and cannot be eaten, and cannot be given away as gifts: The blessing of God, be upon you: We bless you by the name YAH of God:



 

Psalm 130

A Song of Ascents:

Out of the depths, I call You O God: O YAH, console me as I weep, please hear my plea for understanding and compassion and Your words of wisdom:  If you keep account of wrong-doings O God, YAH, who will survive? Yours is the power to forgive, so that You may be held in awe: I look to God, I look to Her, I await Her word, I am more eager for Her than people watching for morning: O Israel, wait for God, for with Her is steadfast love and nurturing, and great power to redeem: It is She who will redeem Israel from all their iniquities:

 

Psalm 131

A Song of my Ascents: Of Batyah:

O God, my heart is not arrogant, nor my look haughty, I do not aspire to great things or to what is beyond me, but I have taught myself to be contented, like a weaned child with her/his father and/or mother, like a weaned child like I am in my mind: O Israel, wait for YAH, for God, now and forever.

 

Psalm 132

A Song of Ascents:

O YAH, remember in Batyah's favor, her extreme self-denial, how she made an oath to YAH, vowed to God, YAH, the mighty One of Sarah, I will not enter my house, nor will I get into my bed, I will not take an afternoon nap, or even close my eyes, until I finish writing these Psalms, to give birth to a blog for YAH, for God, a blog for the nurturing ones of Sarah:

 

Psalm 133

A Song of Ascents: Of Batyah:

How good and how wonderful it is that sisters and brothers live together: It is like olive oil conditioner and shampoo on the head: Running down the shoulders of Elishevah, that comes down over the neckline of her gown, like the dew of Hermon that falls upon the mountains of Israel. There YAH, your God, ordained blessing, everlasting life:


Psalm 134

A Song of Ascents.

Now bless God: All you workers of YAH: Who Stand For Israel in your Shuls: Lift your hands toward the sanctuary and Bless Her: May She, who gave birth to heaven and earth, bless you from Zion, from Israel.



 

Psalm 135

A Song of Ascents:

HalleluYAH! Compliment the name of YAH: Give compliments, you workers of YAH: Who stand up in your Shuls: Flatter YAH for She is God and God is good: Sing sweetly to Her name for it is beautiful: For YAH has chosen Sarah, Rivka, Rachel, and Leah for Herself: We are Israel, as Her cherished treasured people: For I know that YAH is great! That our YAH is greater than all gods: Whatever She does, She does on heaven and on earth, in the seas and all the depths: She invites clouds to rise from the end of the earth, She gives birth to lightening for the rain: She frees the wind from Her large rooms: She aborted the first-born of Egypt: man and beast alike: She sent signs and warnings against Egypt: Against Pharoah and all his army: She struck down many nations and slew numerous kings--Sihon, king of the Amorites, Og, king of Bashan, and all the royalty of Canaan--and gave their lands to the children of Israel: O YAH, God, Your name endures forever, Your fame, O God, throughout all generations, for She will champion with Her people and obtain satisfaction from Her employees: The idols of  the nations are silver and gold, the work of men's hands: They have mouths but cannot speak: They have eyes, but cannot see: They have ears, but cannot hear: nor can they speak or breath: Those who make idols, who trust in them, will become like them: O house of Israel, bless God, O house of Aaron, bless Yah, O house of Levi, bless Her, you who fear Her, bless Her. Blessed is God from Israel, She who dwells in Jerusalem. HalleluYAH.

 

Psalm 136

Compliment YAH for She is good: Her continuing love and caring is forever: Compliment YAH, the God of gods:  Her continuing love and caring is forever: Who independently works great marvels: Her continuing love and caring is forever: Who gave birth to the heavens with wisdom:  Her continuing love and caring is forever: Who spread the earth over the water:  Her continuing love and caring is forever: Who gave birth to great lights:  Her continuing love and caring is forever: The sun  to bring light to the daytime;  Her continuing love and caring is forever: The sun to be a friend of the moon:  Her continuing love and caring is forever: The moon and the Stars of David to dominate the night:  Her continuing love and caring is forever: Who aborted the first-born of the Egyptian enemy:  Her continuing love and caring is forever: And brought Israel out of their midst:  Her continuing love and caring is forever: With a helping hand and an outstretched arm:  Her continuing love and caring is forever: Who divided the Sea of Reeds:  Her continuing love and caring is forever: And showed Israel the way to pass through it:  Her continuing love and caring is forever: Who did not teach the Pharoah and his army how to swim: Who led Her people through the wilderness:  Her continuing love and caring is forever: Who struck down great kings: Her continuing love and caring is forever: And slew mighty kings: Her continuing love and caring is forever: Sihon, the king of the Amorites: Her continuing love and caring is forever: Og, king of Bashan: Her continuing love and caring is forever: And won their land in battle and built on it: Her continuing love and caring is forever: Land that is now part of Israel: Her continuing love and caring is forever: Who saw how we were oppressed: Her continuing love and caring is forever: And rescued us from our enemies: Her continuing love and caring is forever: Who feeds all Her children:  Her continuing love and caring is forever: Compliment YAH, the God of the heavens!  Her continuing love and caring is forever:

Psalm 137

By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat, sat and wept, as we thought of Israel. There on the railings of a busy bridge, we hung up our guitars, for the slow moving cars during the rush hours asked us for free songs, our tormentors did, for their amusement. "Sing us one of the songs of Israel." We said, "How can we sing of YAH on alien soil?" If I do not Stand For Israel, may my right hand get Carpal Tunnel Syndrome so I cannot type on my laptop: Let my tongue swell up with a food allergy without any Benadryl within reach: May these horrible happenings occur, if I cease to think of You, if I do not keep Jerusalem in my memory, even when I am at my happiest moment: Remember God, against Hamas and ISIS, the days that threatened Jerusalem's safety and peace, how they fired rocket after rocket upon us: Glorious Hamas and ISIS, you are enemies, a blessing on whoever gets revenge for us for what you have afflicted on us: A blessing for the IDF who fights your rockets and defends Jerusalem at all costs.


 

Psalm 138

Of Batyah:

I love, honor and respect You with all my heart: I hum Your favorite songs into Your ear for You and for all the angels to hear: I bow toward Your holy Temple, and praise You YAH, please O God, keep loving me as I know You do: When I phoned, the connection did not go dead: You answered me: You gave me intelligence: All of my kids and the rest of the world will praise You: O God, for they have heard voices and they knew it was Yours: We will text each other on our cellphones about Your goodness: Great is your goodness: As great as God is, She knows when you are not feeling well, and She will heal Your sickness, and She will love you even if you did not become a lawyer or marry a doctor: I do have people who hate me, but You help me to ignore them and go about my business: You always extend to me a helping hand: Your true love is for all time, I do not doubt Your existence.

 

Psalm 139

For the boss: Of Batyah. A psalm.

O God, you have examined me and know me: When I turn on my computer and when I turn it off, You know it: You know what I am going to email before I email it: You know all my thoughts and read my brain: You watch me as I get up and when I walk and when I sit down again: You know everything I do before I do it: You know what I am going to say before I say it and when I speak it is really You who are speaking through me: You touch me when I inadvertently brush up against someone: This in-touchness is beyond my knowledge--I do not know how You do it: You are always there: I cannot escape You and do not want to: You are in heaven and you are in Sheol. You are holding me up as I slip on the ice but do not break a leg: I think that when I turn off my bedroom light at night that You will not see me: But for You, night is as light as day: It was You who created my conscience, when my mother conceived me, You made me who I am: I praise You for I am awesomely beautiful! Your work is wonderful, I know it very well: My body was not concealed from You when I was in my mother's womb: Your eyes saw me when I was just an embryo, my character and life was already written up in Your book: Your brain is awesome, O God, Your genius thoughts unfathomable: I try to count Your thoughts as I try to control mine, but it is like counting drops of gasoline that I buy for my car tank: How great their number! I am still with You: O God, please destroy those who want to destroy me, get to them first before they hurt me: O YAH, You know I hate those who hate You: and I despise anyone who opposes You: They are my enemies and I hate them: Keep checking me out O God, and keep knowing my innermost thoughts: If I think negative thoughts, delete them from my mind, and guide me to love You, myself, good people and all things.

 

Psalm 140

For the boss: A Psalm of Batyah.

Rescue me, O YAH, from cunning men: Save me from the schemers, whose minds develop lawsuits: who plot against me from every side: The IRS finds "errors" in my bookkeeping, and they scheme to fire me from my job or force me to resign, close my business and my house will then go into foreclosure: They pretend to be nice, but they are watching my every move: They check me out and then they tell others: They complain about my business on Yelp.com in reviews and others read their complaints: I said to God, You are my God, my YAH: Do not let their plans succeed, or else they will laugh at me when I am on Unemployment Compensation and they will feel great as my family starves; May their businesses close and their stocks fall as they have wished these things on me: May they get stuck in the rain without an umbrella: And may they catch pneumonia and be sick for weeks.  

 

Psalm 141

A Psalm of Batyah:

I beg You O God, come hither to me: listen to my cry when I post on Facebook and please encourage people to "like" my postings: Take my prayer as I weep to You and accept my perfume for You to smell: Accept my donations to charity as an evening sacrifice: O Lord, God, YAH, keep me from saying things that will get me into trouble, help me to shut up: Let my mind stay focused and purposeful, thinking positively: Help me to not associate with those who do bad things: Let me not go to their houses for lunch: Let the good people out there be my true friends: Help me to use salad dressings without high fructose corn syrup: Give me the best healthiest foods to eat and natural cosmetics to use that will not hurt my skin: Keep the doctors from diagnosing me with Breast Cancer: May the neighbors who compete with me slip on their snowy driveways: But let my emails be read because my words are sweet: As when there is no hope anywhere and I think of drinking in the morning: My eyes are fixed on You O YAH, I seek to be saved by You: Rescued from all my problems: Do not cause people to hurt me: Keep me from the traps they have laid: Let unkind people fall into their own nets while I alone survive and live to drink another cup of coffee on yet another morning.


 

Psalm 142

A maskil of Batyah.

I sob and weep all day long to YAH: I appeal to Her for understanding and compassion and mercy: I pour out my grievances to Her: I let Her know my problems as my self-confidence fails within me: You know my path, they have laid a trap in my path as I walk: Look at my right and see--I have no true friend, there is nowhere I can flee, no one cares about me: So I cry to You God, my dearest YAH, I say you are my refuge: You are all I have in this house: Listen to me weep, for I am very depressed: Save me from the neighbors gossip: For they are too strong for me: Free me from this house: so I may love Your name: The good people out there will respect me because You will protect me from bad people's insults.

Psalm 143

A Psalm of Batyah:

O, YAH, give a listen to my blessings: hear me as I ask You, because You love me: answer me as You are good and know I love You too: Please do not judge me, I error as all of us do: My family and friends betrayed me and would not befriend me on Facebook: They crushed me to the ground and criticized me: they put me in darkness and fear: like the dead: I could not feel good: My mind was numbed with horror: Then I read the Torah and thought of my rich history: I thought of all the good things You did for me: You are YAH and I long for You--You are Her, She, and I need You more than I need anyone: Answer my pleas lightening fast: Send me an email in a split second: I cannot wait any longer: Do not ignore me please! Or I will turn into a demon like the others: In the morning greet me with a smile and a hot cup of coffee: For in You I trust: In You I hope: Save me from gossiping neighbors O YAH: To You I look for cover: Teach me to be a good person: For You are my God: Help me to be steady and sober-minded: So that I can call You by your first name O YAH, preserve me: Destroy the people on my social networking sites who try to publicly embarrass me: For I will always do what you want me to do.

 

Psalm 144

Of Batyah:

Blessed is YAH, She is like my laptop, who trains my hands and fingers to type and upload emails to my enemies cc'ed to my lawyer: my faithful One, my home, my haven and my friend, my bed in which I take naps, who causes men to fear me: O YAH, why do you love me so much? I will soon be dead and buried: O God, come down and show me football on a giant screen television with popcorn, a fashion show at Macy's, cause the sky to light up with fireworks every night not just on July 4th: Fire my boss and give me a promotion to his position: At the health club, make sure I do not shower in cold water: Keep my husband from being adulterous and fibbing to me: O YAH, I will sing you a new song, write you a new Psalm: play my bongo drums for You: You who helps me win at Bingo, keep street beggars from stealing my purse, make sure the cashier at the store gives me the correct change: For my son is a lawyer, we helped him with his homework, our daughters are doctors, and their homes are remodeled: Our grocery stores are well stocked and we always have kosher brisket on Friday nights: We do not cry when our husbands come home from the office late--we are busy with our own lives: Happy the people who have it so, happy the people whose God is YAH!




 

Psalm 145

A song of praise of YAH inspired by my great, great, great... grandfather King David:

I will love you my God and queen, and bless Your name YAH forever and ever: Every morning, noon, and night, I will bless You and praise Your name YAH forever and ever: Great is She and much acclaimed, we cannot fathom Her greatness: our children shall laud Your works to another and talk about all the kind and wonderful, loving, and mighty things you do: I will read aloud Your stories to my babies at their bedtime: We will chat over tea about how wonderful You are: Our neighbors will throw parties in Your honor and celebrate how good You are and we will sing to You: It is so kind that She does not get angry at us anymore, and She accepts us for who we are, lets us grow up and be ourselves: YAH is good to all and She shows us mercy and does not spank us anymore: We will praise Her and bless Her: We will message on Facebook to each other about Your greatness of Your queenship, and chat about Your might, we will upload Your good deeds online to the public: We will all teach our kids about Her: She will help us not to trip over our feet, and She will provide back rubs for all of us so we stand up straight: We know you will call us at dinnertime: and give us seconds on our plates: She is kind and faithful: Daven to YAH and also have a personal relationship with Her and She will be near you.


 

Psalm 146

Celebrate YAH! Praise Her, O my soul! I will praise Her forever, and sing sweetly to Her for the rest of my life: She is the only One who is great, mortals do not save, don't trust them: Mortals bite the dust, their plans blow in the wind: Happy is s/he who has YAH and Sarah for her/his help: whose hope is in Her: Mother of heaven and earth, the oceans and all the fish, who keeps faith forever, who helps those who are wronged, and who cooks and feeds Her children--the children of YAH: She sets the captive free, YAH will buy you eyeglasses so you can see, She will teach you good posture so you will stand up straight and sit like a lady or be tall like a man, She loves you when you are good, She protects the convert, and gives courage to the motherless/fatherless and widow/widower, but She causes the path of bad people to be dangerous: YAH will reign forever, your God, O Motherland of Israel, for all generations of all your children and grandchildren, HalleluYAH!

Psalm 147-148

WOW! Respect Her from the heavens: Respect Her from above and below: Respect all Her Gmail contacts, Her family, friends, Her angels: Honor Her kids: Her sons, suns, daughters, and moons and all Her Stars of David: Praise Her many universes: She is strong and powerful, Her wisdom is Cho-achma and it is beyond reckoning: Say "Mother-may-I?" or your out! Play Her a tune on your harmonica: She covers the heavens with a warm blanket: Provides rain for our flower gardens: She feeds the dog Alpo: Even feeds the outdoor stray cats: It doesn't matter if you know how to lift a piano, or if you are as fast as a Corvette: O Motherland of Israel: Glorify Her: Praise Her O Zion! She blessed you at your Brit Mila and Bar/Bat Mitzvot: She feeds you from Her own plate the choicest of toasted bagels: She makes Her desires known, Her commands run swiftly: She blows around snow onto your driveways and ice onto your car windows: She tosses down hail like crumbs, but you have to be honest with Her: You can fear Her, be in awe of Her, and She will still love you: If you love Her in return, She will not ignore you: My mouth shall utter praise and respect of Her, and we shall all honor Her name.

 

Psalm 149

Go Giants! Humming and whistling, singing a new rap! Her praises in a shul for the rejoicing, no sleepy nap: We love Her and we respect Her: We check out Her mind: We are dancing with Her to Hava Nagila, in a string holding hands, without any demands! With keyboards, rattles and go tambourines: The humble shall win the State Lottery and cash dreams: Shouting "Go New York Giants joyously! May the opposing team never win, cuz of sin: 'stead sit on the bleachers in shame: It's definitely a winning game with fame! This is the glory of all Her faithful: We daven boyishly, but coyishly-- Go Giants!

 

Psalm 150

Awesome! Love Her with leaps and bounds and smiles galore: Praise Her with all my heart and gifts of sweet "Good and Plenty" candies into Her baseball mit: Open my heart wide and show Her I care: Spray perfume in the air and blow it Her way: Pick petals from daisies and joyously toss them upon Her gown as She walks toward a new day--my Shabbat Bride: Show Her wisdom from my thoughts and do not hide: My face is for Her only in day and in night: All my meditations will be for Her, how I do excite! Awesome!
