Morning: Psalm 23

The Lord Is My Shepherd

A Psalm of David.

23 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters.
3 He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,     
I will fear no evil, for you are with me;     
your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
you anoint my head with oil;     
my cup overflows.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me  all the days of my life,
and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

Evening: Psalm 24

A Psalm of David.

24 The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof,     
the world and those who dwell therein,
2 for he has founded it upon the seas and established it upon the rivers.

3 Who shall ascend the hill of the Lord?     
And who shall stand in his holy place?
4 He who has clean hands and a pure heart,     
who does not lift up his soul to what is false     
and does not swear deceitfully.
5 He will receive blessing from the Lord     
and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
6 Such is the generation of those who seek him,     
who seek the face of the God of Jacob. Selah

7 Lift up your heads, O gates!     
And be lifted up, O ancient doors,     
that the King of glory may come in.
8 Who is this King of glory?     
The Lord, strong and mighty,     
the Lord, mighty in battle!
9 Lift up your heads, O gates!     
And lift them up, O ancient doors,     
that the King of glory may come in.
10 Who is this King of glory?     
The Lord of hosts,     
he is the King of glory! Selah
