Psalm 51-75 Highlights

Psalm 51

6Behold, You desire truth in the innermost being,
And in the hidden part You will make me know wisdom.

10Create in me a clean heart, O God,
And renew a steadfast spirit within me.
11Do not cast me away from Your presence
And do not take Your Holy Spirit from me.
12Restore to me the joy of Your salvation
And sustain me with a willing spirit.

17The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit;
A broken and a contrite heart, O God, You will not despise.

Psalm 53

1The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God,”
They are corrupt, and have committed abominable injustice;
There is no one who does good.
2God has looked down from heaven upon the sons of men
To see if there is anyone who understands,
Who seeks after God.
3Every one of them has turned aside; together they have become corrupt;
There is no one who does good, not even one.

Psalm 56

4In God, whose word I praise,
In God I have put my trust;
I shall not be afraid.
What can mere man do to me?

8You have taken account of my wanderings;
Put my tears in Your bottle.
Are they not in Your book?

Psalm 60

12Through God we shall do valiantly,
And it is He who will tread down our adversaries.

Psalm 61

2From the end of the earth I call to You when my heart is faint;
Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

Psalm 62

1My soul waits in silence for God only;
From Him is my salvation.
2He only is my rock and my salvation,
My stronghold; I shall not be greatly shaken.

Psalm 63

1 O God, You are my God; I shall seek You earnestly;
My soul thirsts for You, my flesh yearns for You,
In a dry and weary land where there is no water.

3Because Your lovingkindness is better than life,
My lips will praise You.
4So I will bless You as long as I live;
I will lift up my hands in Your name.

Psalm 65

9You visit the earth and cause it to overflow;
You greatly enrich it;
The stream of God is full of water;
You prepare their grain, for thus You prepare the earth.
10You water its furrows abundantly,
You settle its ridges,
You soften it with showers,
You bless its growth.

13The meadows are clothed with flocks
And the valleys are covered with grain;
They shout for joy, yes, they sing.

Psalm 69

32The humble have seen it and are glad;
You who seek God, let your heart revive.
33For the LORD hears the needy
And does not despise His who are prisoners.

Psalm 70

1O God, hasten to deliver me;
O LORD, hasten to my help!
2Let those be ashamed and humiliated
Who seek my life;
Let those be turned back and dishonored
Who delight in my hurt.

Psalm 73

2But as for me, my feet came close to stumbling,
My steps had almost slipped.
3For I was envious of the arrogant
As I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
17Until I came into the sanctuary of God;
Then I perceived their end.
18Surely You set them in slippery places;
You cast them down to destruction.

21When my heart was embittered
And I was pierced within,
22Then I was senseless and ignorant;
I was like a beast before You.
23Nevertheless I am continually with You;
You have taken hold of my right hand.

24With Your counsel You will guide me,
And afterward receive me to glory.

Psalm 75

1We give thanks to You, O God, we give thanks,
For Your name is near;
Men declare Your wondrous works.
