New Living Translation (NLT)
Psalm 59
11 Don’t kill them, for my people soon forget such lessons; stagger them with your power, and bring them to their knees, O Lord our shield.
12 Because of the sinful things they say, because of the evil that is on their lips, let them be captured by their pride, their curses, and their lies.
13 Destroy them in your anger! Wipe them out completely! Then the whole world will know that God reigns in Israel. Interlude
14 My enemies come out at night, snarling like vicious dogs as they prowl the streets.
15 They scavenge for food but go to sleep unsatisfied.
16 But as for me, I will sing about your power. Each morning I will sing with joy about your unfailing love. For you have been my refuge, a place of safety when I am in distress.
17 O my Strength, to you I sing praises, for you, O God, are my refuge, the God who shows me unfailing love.
Psalm 60
1 You have rejected us, O God, and broken our defenses. You have been angry with us; now restore us to your favor.
2 You have shaken our land and split it open. Seal the cracks, for the land trembles.
3 You have been very hard on us, making us drink wine that sent us reeling.
4 But you have raised a banner for those who fear you— a rallying point in the face of attack. Interlude
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
