Psalm 88

A Song of Psalm by BatYAH* originally by the sons of Korach,

HASHEM, The Name: YAH, ELOHIM, O God, God of my security Who saves me, the day through whose night I cried out is before You: Please hear my humble cry of help in my prayer, show me Your blessed ear: For my life is plagued by troublesome evil-doers, and my life has reached old age near death: I was included with those who descend into a pit: I was like a person without any strength whatsoever, fatigued from all the trouble--like one among those who died in disobedience, corpses decaying in the grave, whom You remember no more, for they were cut off by Your hand: I had rebellion and You placed me in the darkest lowest worst place possible in the world, upon me Your wrath has caused me afflictions, Selah. My family, friends, and acquaintances act like strangers against me, You have made me ugly and abominable to them: I am held a captive and cannot leave: I am grieved and I have called upon You O HASHEM, everyday: I have showed you my upraised palms, stretching out my needy hands to You: Will You raise me from the dead? Will the lifeless become strong and living again to give You thanks and praise? Please remind me of Your wonders and forgive my inadequacies, and do not abandon me: I am afflicted and have almost died many times since youth, You have been raging against me because of my disobedience, and I feel dread of You: Your admonitions have surrounded me and caused me anxiety: You have estranged me in exile from my family, friends, and acquaintances:

 

Psalm 89

A Maskil by BatYAH inspired by Eisan the Ezrachite's original Maskil:

Of God's sweet merciful love, devotion, mercy, and kindness, I will sing sweetly and beautifully to You forever: I will use my wonderful voice and my open mouth to sing to You with kind holy Hebrew words dancing off my tongue and palate for You forever, I will sing to let everyone know how wonderful You are: For I said: "Forever will God's kindness be built, the heavens--You establish Your faithfulness in them." HASHEM made a Covenant, an agreement with the Israelites, His/Her chosen ones. God rules the greatness of the sea, when trouble comes and our hearts beat faster and faster, and we are threatened, You calm us: You crushed the venomous Rahav like a dead corpse, with the arm of Your great awesome might, You defended us and scattered our foes: You created us and You gave us the power to defeat our enemies with Your help and guidance: In Your Name: The Name: HASHEM, we rejoice, God has exalted the Priests from among His/Her people, and we go to the Priests for help and to God for help: God is our help and S/He always will be: HASHEM has anointed David His/Her servant and all of his descendants are anointed with holy oil: And HASHEM will smash his tormentors before him, all who hate him and give him trouble: Forever shall I preserve my kindness for David and his descendants: For they are born in My womb and shall serve Me and all of the Israelites: the people who have been taunted, tormented: Blessed is S/He YAH, HASHEM forever:

 

Psalm 90

A Prayer by Moses with credit given to Zipporah, the wife of Moses: the Woman of God, who inspired Moses:

My Lord, You have been an abode, a dwelling, a House for all of us, in all generations: You had not yet given birth to the 2000+ universes, and to our lands, and from the earliest remotest past and to the most distant future--You are our God: You reduce women and men to nothing, to pulp, and You command us and You say: "Repent. Do teshuvah, O children of two parents." For even a thousand years in Your eyes are but a bygone yesterday, and like a watch in the night: You drown the wicked in floods, they become sleep-like, they are poisoned like weeds: In the morning the wicked blossoms, by evening they are cut down and perish: For all of us: women, men and children, beasts and plants, are consumed by Your Harsh Hot Seething Fury, You see our child-like behaviors in Your brilliant lighted countenance: For our days passed by because of Your anger, we consumed our years like a fleeting thought: The days of our years among them are seventy years, eighty years, our proudest success is but toil and pain, for it is severely cut off swiftly and we fly away: Who can fathom how hugely angry You can get; As ADONAI is feared, Your anger is feared: Teach us to count our days and live by Your holy days, then we shall acquire a loving heart of wisdom with knowledge: Return to us, dearest HASHEM, how long will You be away while we suffer? Relent and come to us, Your servants: Satisfy us in the morning with Your lovingkindness, then we shall chant, hum, whistle, or sweetly sing and rejoice; being glad all of our days: Be good to us and gladden us for as many days we have been afflicted, longer, all the years we have seen and experienced evil: May we see all of Your goodness in all that You do for us, in all Your words and actions, and please bless our children: May the pleasantness of my Lord, our God, be upon us--our handiwork, establish for us our calling, our occupation, establish it:

 

Psalm 91

Whoever follows diligently the Commandments of Adonai sits in God's refuge--the salvation of the Highest of the Most High--s/he dwells in God's mercy in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the greatest YAH, that S/He is my Refuge, my Fortress, my Rock, my Beloved, mine, and I will trust in Her: For S/He will deliver me from the treacherous ensnaring traps, from devastating fatal epidemic diseases: Beneath God's mighty eagle wings S/He will cover you, protect and love you, shield and armor is God's truth: You shall not fear the horrible terror at night or the battles of arrows flying towards you during the days: nor the diseases that lurk in gloom, nor the murderer who lays waste at noon: Let millions camp at your side, but no one will touch you, no one will ever harm you: You will merely look with your eyes and see all the wicked fall, all become dead and gone: Because You HASHEM, have become all I need and all I want, all I ever desire, I desire no one, and nothing other than You: You alone are my dwelling place: No evil will ever befall you, nor any plague come near your tent: God will command the angels to follow you and guide you, to protect you in all their ways: On palms they will carry you lest you strike your foot against stone like Moses did and stop trusting in ADONAI's goodness: Upon the lion and serpent you will stomp, you will trample monsters and the wicked: For he has yearned for me and I will answer him/her, I will raise him/her to aliyah, because s/he knows all My Names, and respects all My Names: People will call upon me and I will gladly answer all of them, I am with everyone who is righteous, in their distress: The Tzaddikim, the Righteous, will have the greatest of honors: I will give them a long life:

 

Psalm 92

A Psalm by BatYAH*: A Song for Shabbat: It is good to give thanksgiving to our greatest, holiest, mightiest, HASHEM: and to chant Praise to Her: To sing praise to Your Name O YAH: To appreciate Your kindness in the sunniest of dawns and Your faith in the darkest of nights: Upon stringed instruments and upon flutes with accompaniments of harps: You have raised my spirits upon high and gladdened a hurting soul that hurts no more: How incredibly great are Your actions, how intense and profound are Your thoughts: A fool cannot know You, a boor does not understand You: When the wicked blooms like grass and the doers of iniquity blossom--HASHEM will destroy them for all time until eternity:

 

Psalm 93

HASHEM will have ruled, have reigned, S/He will have greatness and grandeur, S/He will have might and will gird Him/Herself: Even the world of men, women, and children will be firm: The earth shall not falter, Adonai will save the world through God's righteous chosen Israelite People: God's brilliant Sapphire blue and golden throne in the clouds was established from of old, eternal are You: Like volcanoes they rise, they rise like vomiting volcanoes, and rivers after a horrendous thunderstorm, they shall raise their destructiveness: More powerful than tsunamis, higher than tidal waves, more than the roars of many oceans, mightier than the highest, strongest waves of the sea--You are the mightiest on high O HASHEM: Your Torah Teachings in Your Houses of Worship, our Sacred Dwellings, are exceedingly trustworthy--O HASHEM, give me longevity, may it be for lengthy days:

Psalm 94

O God of Wrath and Vengeance, HASHEM, O God appear! Arise O Judge and punish the arrogant: How long shall the wicked exult--O HASHEM--They speak venomously, freely utter slanderous malicious falsehoods, they love themselves, all workers of iniquity: Your nation, HASHEM, they crush and they afflict You and all You support: They try to destroy Your heritage: They slay the poor, the widow, the stranger, the orphan, the fatherless, the motherless, the childless--all these hurting people they murder: And they think that YAH will not see their oppressions, that the God of Avraham, Issac, Jacob, Sarah, Rivka, Rachel, and Leah will not understand: Understand you ignoramuses and boors that God does understand, when will you fools gain wisdom? S/He who creates the ear cannot hear? S/He who makes the eye shall not see? S/He who controls nations, shall S/He not rebuke? S/He who teaches women, men and children knowledge: HASHEM knows the thoughts of people, that their schemes are futile: Praiseworthy is the person who God teaches from God's Torah: To give the honest person rest from the evil, and for a pit to be dug for the wicked: For HASHEM will not abandon His/Her Israelites, nor will S/He forsake Her Heritage: Justice and righteousness will prevail, and following just good ways will be all the pure of spirit and heart: Who will rise up and defend me against evil doers? Who will stand up for me against the wicked? Had God not been a help to me in the past, I would have never spoken again and instead lived in complete isolation: If I said "O God, if my foot falters would You please O God support me so I do not fall and kill myself?" Your kindness has been a support to me in the past: You comforted my soul with gladness as I praised You: Are You associated with destruction? To those who lead an evil life? They gather together to hurt the innocent, the soul of the righteous, our good blood they condemn: God then become my Stronghold, my Rock of refuge: S/He turned their own evil against them and in this way S/He will cut them off: HASHEM, The Name will cut off evil from all good men, women, and children, and the wicked will suffer from their own misdeeds:

 

Psalm 95

Come! Let us sing songs, newly created and old songs, to HASHEM: let us call out to our Savior: Let us greet God with thanksgiving, to show gratitude to HASHEM for all things: Give God praise and thanks, let us call out to YAHWEH: For S/HE is a great God: and a great Monarch beyond all heavenly powers: For in God's secrets are the hidden mysteries of the earth, seas, and sky--HASHEM perfected them and they belong to The Name: ADONAI: Come! Let us bow, stand and sit, for HASHEM is our God and we can be the flock ELOHIM pastures, and the sheep in His/Her care: even today, IF we heed HASHEM's call! Do not harden your heart in secularity or in belief of false gods, as at Meribah, as on the day of Massah in the Wilderness: when your ancestors, your grandparents and great grandparents... tested Me, though they had seen My deed: For forty years as they wandered in the Wilderness, I was incensed in wrathful anger at that generation, then I spoke in a loud roaring thunder voice: "An errant-hearted people are they, and they know not My ways." Therefore because of their sins, I have sworn in My anger that they shall NOT enter My land of contentment and peace:

  

Psalm 96

Men, women, and children: Sing to HASHEM a new song, sing to HASHEM,--everyone on earth: Sing to ADONAI, Bless God's Name: announce God's salvation daily, minute by minute, second by second: Relate God's glory among all nations, among all peoples, God's wonders: God is above heavenly powers, above angels, greater and more awesome than anything or anyone in existence: For all the other gods and idols people create are nothings, but ELOHIM, O YAHWEH, gave birth to the Heavens! In our Synagogues, our Sanctuaries, glory and might, splendor and majesty are before God: Give honor to The Name of HASHEM: Do a mitzvah of lovingkindness and give to charity, do this to honor HASHEM: Shake before ADONAI, tremble in awe, everyone on Earth: Declare among the peoples that the world is fixed, controlled by ADONAI, through His/Her guidance of our choices, with righteousness, the world cannot falter: God will judge the people with fairness and justice: The Heavens will exult, the mountains will rejoice, the seas will roar, the land will be glad: The trees and birds will sing, everything will be joyous--before HASHEM, for God will have arrived, God will have arrived to judge the earth, God will judge with righteousness, justice, and beneficence, all the peoples with Her/His truth and honesty:

    

Psalm 97

When HASHEM will reign, the universe will rejoice; numerous whole continents and islands will be ecstatic: Threatening lightening and massive clouds in dense darkness will surround HASHEM: His/Her throne is built firmly on righteousness, holiness, justice, and beneficence: A Raging Fire will advance before ADONAI and Her/His enemies will repent and beg forgiveness: If there is no remorse, HASHEM's lightening bolts will strike them dead in seconds: The caps of snow on mountains will melt and flow like the spilled blood of His enemies, before HASHEM, before Almighty God, the Lord of all the earth: The angels in Heaven will declare God's righteousness and all the inhabitants of the world will see God's glory: In shame and humiliation will be the people who worship worthless false gods and erect meaningless idols against HASHEM's Kingdom: To Him/Her, all of the world's peoples and creatures will bow: O lovers of HASHEM, of ELOHIM the Almighty Powerful! Israel will hear and see, touch and smell, taste, and be glad, and the Daughters of Judah will exult: all because of Your judgments O YAH: God is above everything, everyone, and every power, above all in 2000+ Universes: O lovers of God, despise sin! S/He saves us from the wicked and destroys all demons and evil, rescuing us: Darkness ceases with an explosion of light from God's command, "Let there be Light!" And light is sown for the righteous, for the good in heart, gladness: Whenever you hear anyone of God's 70+ Names: Praise Him/Her O righteous, give holy praise to HASHEM, The Name: Give grateful praise to God's Holy Name:
 

Psalm 98

A Psalm! By BatYAH.*
Sing to HASHEM a new song but with the wisdom of knowing the old songs and their value: For S/He has done wonders: Her/His strong right hand and mighty bulging holy arm have helped Her/him as ours does after we don tefillin: HASHEM has revealed His/Her purpose, to show His/Her kindness and faithfulness to the House of Israel and the Israelites: All faces of the earth have seen Your saving ability: HASHEM wants all Her/His Israelites to sing joyously, men and women alike, all of Zion, to play music for Her/Him: Play sweet music on harps or heavy guttural chants with drums to HASHEM, S/He loves it all, as long as it is meant only for God: Shout aloud and blow a Shofar for ADONAI: Whisper to God, Chant to God: Chant praise: The great oceans will roar as a tidal wave in exultation to HASHEM: Rivers and mountains will clap hands: HASHEM is the most wisest Judge of all and with righteousness our God will judge all the people with justice and fairness.

 

Psalm 99

When HASHEM will reign, the entire earth of all nations will shake and heave violently in spasms forever. Before Her/Him Who is enthroned on Cheribum, the very earth splits, cracks open with the stiffening fear of a coma: Before HASHEM Who is great in Zion and Who is exalted above all kings, queens, nations, other gods, because S/He is the only true God: Your Names YAH and HASHEM, ELOHIM, ... are awesome and of the holiest! Almighty is the Sovereign who loves justice, mercy, kindness, truth: How incredibly Powerful is S/He Who wins every war: The righteousness of Avraham and Sarah You have made: Bow at Her/His footstool, and worship Her/him always: From the dark skies in an ominous cloud S/He answered Moses and Aaron: S/He spoke to them in loud deafening commands that shook and loosened mountains and started quaking volcanoes to vomit in eruption: S/He is a forgiving God, Exalt HASHEM and bow at Her/His holy mountain: For S/He is holy, our God, HASHEM.

 

Psalm 100

Todah rabbah, O God!!! All on earth call out to HASHEM with thankfulness, thanks[giving], yes, thanks and also giving to the poor should be in our hearts: We serve Her and come before Her with joyous song! Know that HASHEM, which means The Name: She is God, it is She who gave birth to us, it is She who we belong to: We are Hers: Her people and Her sheep in the pasture: Enter Her gates with prayers, blessings, praise and thanksgiving, bless Her Name, The Name: HASHEM: For She is good, Her kindness endures for all eternity, and from generation to generation is Her faithfulness:

 

Psalm 101

By David, Rewritten In My Own Words, By BatYAH, A Psalm: I sing of kindness and justice, hoping and praying to receive it and trying to give it: I contemplate the way to be simple and innocent: O God, when will You come to me? I walk constantly with innocence of heart within my house: I will never do a worthless thing, or do wayward deeds, everything I despise does not cling to me: A perverted heart will remain removed and distanced from me, they will drop away like dead flies, vanishing from my existence: I shall not know evil: He who slanders his neighbor in secret, him I will cut down: One with arrogant eyes and a heart that is over-sized--him I cannot bear: My eyes are on those who are Faithful to Me, and who walk the land in perfect innocence: he is the one who shall serve Me: In My house, there will be no liars, no deceit, no evil-doers before My eyes: Every morning, noon and night, I will cut down all the wicked so they will not be in the lands of HASHEM:

Psalm 102

HASHEM O God, hear, Shema my humble prayer, as I pour out my supplications to You: Let my cry reach You! In my day of distress, please O God, do not hide Your face: Give me Your Great Almighty ear when I call and answer me speedily: For my days are consumed like cigarette smoke and my bones are charred on a grill: Withered is my heart like grass on a hot summery day: I am so weak from my afflictions and from my enemies warring that I have forgotten to eat my food: I am so thin, my bones are sticking to my ribs: I am like an owl searching for vermin in a wasteland: I am a lonely bird on a rooftop, even though I have been diligent: All day long my enemies piss me off, ridicule me and curse me: I have eaten their words like ashes and drank their battling in tears: Because of Your Godly wrathful anger at my oppressor's words and actions, but my vengeful retaliations, You have raised me high but then hurled me down: My days are short like a passing shadow, and I shrivel and get older and weaker: You will arise and favor Zion, favor her dust: All nations will fear Your Name, The Name: HASHEM, YAH, ADONAI, GOD,... You will not despise the prayer of the devastated one, Let all this be recorded for our newborn nations so they will also praise God, She gazed upon us in Her Sanctuary and looked down from heaven and earth: To hear the groaning of the captive prisoner and then to liberate all those doomed to die: To declare in Israel and all over the world, in Zion, Her Name, YAH, She has afflicted my strength on the way, She has shortened my days: You created the Heavens and the Earth: All will perish, but You will live on forever: Only Your obedient servants will be settled and their children will live on to praise You and have Your goodness:

    

Psalm 103

By David and BatYAH, Bless HASHEM and YAH and ELOHIM..., O my soul, and all that is in me [bless] Her holy Name: Bless HASHEM O my soul and forget not all Her kindnesses: Who forgives all your sins, Who heals diseases and broken hearts and all that afflict us: Who raises us out of the darkness of pits and Who crowns us with kindness and mercy: Who satisfies our mouths with goodness and kind words, so that our youth is renewed with the strength of an eagle: HASHEM, YAH, God is the doer of righteous deeds, and She helps all the oppressed and forsaken: Moses received Commandments and holy words directly from Her mouth and She showed the people of Israel how to be righteous people through Her actions: God is Merciful, Kind and Slow to Anger: As we as Her people should imitate: She does not quarrel for eternity, nor will She bear a grudge: As we should also not quarrel or bear grudges: If we fear Her and love Her, as the Torah commands us to do, Her kindness will be abundant: Bless HASHEM, O God, and all Her servants, legions, nations, etc., Bless all Her works in all places of Her dominion: Bless YAH, O my soul.

 

Psalm 104

Bless The Name, HASHEM, and YAH, a God with both feminine and masculine characteristics, and no imagery of identification--we are ALL made in God's image, both women and men: You are very great! You shine with light as we are clothed to reflect Your beauty: Stretching out before our eyes like a large white curtain, opening on a stage during God's Debut: The beautiful blue clouds are Your chariot, You command the wind who is Your messengers: the flaming fire is Your attendants: The earth will not faulter because You have established it: Your deep waters stand proudly on mountain tops, and flow freely into Your valleys: When You rebuke, they flee, when You thunder they rush away: You set boundaries so the waters do not flood the lands, and so the mountains do not open like volcanoes everywhere sending firing lava into all our homes; we obey Your territorial fences: Your flowing waters quench the thirst of all beasts: The birds make homes in Your branches and sing to us as our morning alarm clocks: People awake and work and we are fed with Your green growing vegetation: We pick Your purple grapes off our vines that intertwine our hearts with our loved ones and create gladness: Our faces and candles glow from Your olive oil: And we eat Your Challah to keep our hearts pure: You sustain us: Among the cypress trees, we walk in parks and are sated with Your trees of life, there where the birds make their homes: Huge high mountains to make the goats' footing sure, and rocks to protect the homes of the gophers: She made the Rosh Hodesh new moon a feminine entity in Her image, and also the sun to watch the moon do dances around the earth: You create darkness so the beasts will stir: The young lions roar and are fed by Your generous lovingkindness: When You cause the sun to rise, they go to sleep in the protection of their dens: People awake and go to work until sunset and then sleep: Your possessions fill our storage spaces, we own in abundance we are because of Your good works: In Your great oceans and seas we find numbers of treasures so great, they cannot be counted, we travel to Israel in ships upon Your seas: YAH O God feeds us at the proper time: We look to You with hope and You open Your hand to us: Please never hide Your face, we will dutifully follow all of Your Commandments: When You breathe, You give us life: May the glory of The Name of HASHEM glory forever in majesty: You look at us and we tremble: When You touch the mountains they smoke: I will sing sweetly and in gratitude to You as I praise You, YAH, and therefore I will endure: I will continue to be good to You, for You and to others, and those who are not will perish under Your swords, and be no more: Bless YAH, HASHEM, G-d and God! O my soul! HalleluYAH!   

 

Psalm 105

Praise YAH our God: Call on Her name, proclaim Her deeds among the peoples. Sing to Her beautiful sweet melodies and praising songs, speak of Her often to all peoples, if you seek Her you will be able to rejoice, turn to Her, seek Her presence constantly: Remember Her wonders She has done for you, She is the Lord our God: She is ever mindful of Her Covenant with us, and will never let you down as long as you do not let Her down: But then, O God, She will forgive you: When we as Israelites were just a handful of people wandering from nation to nation, She stood by our side: She allowed no one to oppress us: She said: "Do not touch My anointed ones, do not harm My prophets:" Many others starved, She called a famine among the land: But Her anointed ones did not starve because Joseph was sent into slavery, his feet were bound, and an iron collar was put on his neck: He interpreted the Pharoah's dream, and the people then survived the famine, and Joseph was released, made the lord of the Pharoah's household, and he then taught his elders wisdom: God made Her people very fruitful, more numerous than their foes, then She changed their hearts to hate Her people, to plot against Her servants: Moses and Aaron performed Her miracles among them, She sent darkness, She turned their waters into blood, killed their fish, their land teemed with frogs, swarms of insects came at Her command, lice by the millions, hail instead of rain, their trees, vines and figs were destroyed, grasshoppers destroyed everything, they devoured every green thing in sight, She aborted every first-born in the land, the first fruit of their vigor; Israel left Egypt with silver and gold, and Egypt rejoiced when we left: For they dreaded us: Clouds covered us as we marched out, and fire lightened our dark nights, we asked Her for meat and She brought us quail, and satisfied us with manna from the heavens: She opened a rock and water sprung forth, it flowed in a parched land: She led the people out with gladness: We inherited the wealth of the peoples so we could keep Her laws and observe Her teachings: HalleluYAH.

 

Psalm 106

HalleluYAH.

God's mighty acts are good and inconceivably great, praise Her: YAH loves Her people, the Israelites, She takes notice of us when we act justly, let me enjoy prosperity as Your chosen one: We have sinned, yes, our forefathers rebelled and forgot how much You loved them: Yet She saved them so we could remember Her name YAH: The Sea of Reeds became dry after Her blast: God saved us from our enemies: Water drowned the enemy: We all knew YAH was God after that, we believed in Her: But soon forgot again, there was envy of Moses, and cravings in the wilderness, the earth opened and swallowed them: A hot blazing fire burned the wicked: A golden calf was destroyed, but Moses diverted Her wrath: But still they did not have faith in YAH: They were disobedient and they grumbled: She raised Her hand and made them fall: They ate sacrifices offered to the dead: They provoked anger: A plague killed many: Phinehas stepped forward and the plague ceased: They worshipped idols, they sacrificed to demons, they shed innocent blood, their own daughters' and sons', left it a polluted bloody land: She was extremely angry! Their foes ruled them, their enemies oppressed them: YAH saved them time and time again but they were very rebellious, so they were brought low to the ground: She heard their cry and She relented: Deliver us O YAH our God, You are blessed God of Israel, from eternity to eternity: Let all the people say "Amein." HalleluYAH.

  

Psalm 107

There was darkness, but YAH brought me light: She healed all my wounds, and gave me a bright and loving life: I was hungry and thirsty and YAH brought me delicious kosher foods and pure waters: She showed me a direct way to become relieved of my pain and my burdens: She is east, west, north and south of me, She is everywhere: Some lost their way, but not me, I followed Her: I settled in a home, a good place, and She satisfied my hunger for love and united me with my family and my parents in love: Some lived in deeper darkness, but they cried out like I did and She rescued them: There were fools who sinned, and had sibling rivalry and dishonored their parents against God's teachings in the Torah, and they fell to the wayside: They went down in ships, drowned, like drunken fools, but then they cried aloud, and She saved them: Praise YAH for Her mercy and goodness, exalt Her and acclaim Her, She turns the wilderness into a park for children to play, She brings forth water fountains in parks, and gives relief to the thirsty: She brings fresh fruits to our tables, but She denies food and relief to the wicked, She pollutes their waters and brings about sickness: If you acknowledge Her greatness, She will turn your wilderness into a pool, parched land into springs of water, and She will give you a home with food on your table: She settles the hungry: She pours contempt on hateful men, and She makes them lose their way in trackless deserts: The upright and good people see this and the mouths of all wrong doers is stopped up: The wise person will take note of these things, and s/he will consider the steadfast love of God, of YAH, of Her:

 

Psalm 108

A Beautiful Sweet Song: A Psalm of BatYAH:

My warm loving heart is firm, O God, I will sing and chant a hymn with all my soul: Awake O guitar and drum! I will make music even with my soul: I will wake up the dawn: I will praise and thank Her/Him among the peoples, YAH, and I will sing to you among the nations: For great above the very heavens is Her/His loving-kindness, and until the upper heights is Your truth and devotion to me: Be exalted above heavens O YAH, and above all the earth Your glory: So that Your beloved ones may be released--let Your right hand reach out to me and save me and respond to me: S/He spoke through me, God's holy one, that I would exultingly divide up Shechem, and measure the Valley of Sukkoth, Gilead and Manasseh would be mine, Ephraim My chief stronghold, Avraham v' Sarah My scepter, Moab would be My washbasin, on Edom I would cast my shoe, I would raise a shout over Philistia: Who will bring me to Jerusalem, the fortified city? Who has led me unto Edom? Is it not You, O God, who has until now forsaken us? Grant us Your aid against our enemies: for the help of man is worthless: With God we shall triumph, S/He will trample our foes:

 

Psalm 109

For the Leader: A Psalm of BatYAH:

O YAH of my praise, O God: do not keep aloof, for the wicked and deceitful open their mouths against me: they speak to me with lying tongues: They encircle me with words of hate: they attack me without cause: They answer my love with accusations and insults: and I must stand judgment: They repay me with evil for good and hatred and jealousy for my love: Appoint a wicked man over him: may an accuser stand at his right side: may he be tried and convicted: May he be judged and found guilty: May his days be few: May another take over his position: May his children be orphans: His wife a widow: May his children wander from their hovels, begging in search of bread: May his creditor seize all his possessions: May strangers plunder his wealth: May no one show him mercy: May none pity his orphans, may he lose his job and may his children not have grandchildren, may their names be blotted out in the next generation: May YAH be aware of them always and cause their names to be cut off from the earth: Because he was not mindful to act kindly, and he hounded to death the poor and needy man, one crushed in spirit: He loved to curse, may a curse come upon him! He would not bless--may blessings be far from him! May he be clothed in a curse like a garment, may it enter his body like dirty water, his bones like oil: Let it be like the cloak he wraps around him, like the belt he always wears, May YAH my God, thus repay my accusers, all those who speak evil against me: Now You, O God, my YAH, deal with me for Your Name's sake, because Your kindness is good--rescue me! For poor and destitute am I, my heart has died within me: Like a vanishing shadow, I am driven about, I am tossed about like a locust: My knees totter from fasting and my flesh has become lean without fat: And I have become a disgrace to them, they see me and shake their heads: Help me YAH, my God, may You help me and save me according to Your loving-kindness! Let them know that this is Your hand, that You have made it happen: Let them curse, but You will bless: They rose up but they will be shamed--and I, your servant will rejoice! May my adversaries be in humiliation and may they hang their heads in shame: I will thank YAH exceedingly for everything, have gratitude for every little thing and will sing to Her, that She stands at the right of the destitute, to save me from the condemner of my soul:

 

Psalm 110

Of BatYAH: A Psalm:

God spoke to me: "Sit at my right hand side, while I make your enemies your footstool." YAH will stretch forth from Zion your mighty scepter, hold sway over your enemies! Your people come forth willingly and devotedly on your day of battle: In majestic holiness, from your mother's womb, from the dawn, yours was the dew of youth: YAH has sworn and She will not relent, She says: "You are a Bat Kohayne or Bat Levite Priest forever, a rightful monarch by My decree." God is at your right hand side, She crushes kings in the day of Her anger: She works judgment upon the nations, denying men an education and heaping up bankruptcies and foreclosing houses, far and wide, in the day of Her anger. She drinks from Miriam's well while walking on her chosen path, therefore she holds her head high:

 

Psalm 111

HalleluYAH.
I praise YAH, O God, with all my heart, mind and spirit, in the congregation of the righteous in the synagogue: The works of YAH are great, within reach of all who desire them: Her good deeds are splendid and glorious, Her loving-kindness is forever, everlasting: She has won renown for all Her wonders: YAH is gracious and understanding, She gives food to the men who fear Her, She is ever mindful of Her covenant, a covenant is an agreement that is never to be broken: She revealed to Her people Her powerful beautiful works, in giving them the heritage of nations: Her handiwork is honesty and justice, all Her precepts are enduring, well-founded for all eternity, full of truth and equity: She sent redemption to Her people, She ordained Her covenant for all time--forever: Her name YAH is holy and awesome: The beginning of "Cho-achmah," wisdom, is fear and love of YAH, our God, all Her children who practice it gain sound "Binah," understanding: Praise of Her is forever:
