You're invited to visit the new contributors to Robert's PsalmChallenge over at Daily Athens.
Today's text is Psalm 36. For the Hebrew see Mechon Mamre.
1 To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David, the servant of the LORD.
Transgression speaks to the wicked deep in his heart; there is no fear of God before his eyes. 2 For he flatters himself in his own eyes that his iniquity cannot be found out and hated. 3 The words of his mouth are mischief and deceit; he has ceased to act wisely and do good. 4 He plots mischief while on his bed; he sets himself in a way that is not good; he spurns not evil.
5 Your steadfast love, O LORD, extends to the heavens, your faithfulness to the clouds. 6 Your righteousness is like the mountains of God, your judgments are like the great deep; man and beast you save, O LORD.
11 Let not the foot of arrogance come upon me, nor the hand of the wicked drive me away. 12 There the evildoers lie prostrate, they are thrust down, unable to rise.

So beautiful and the perfect example for those verses!
ReplyDeleteThe photo of your granddaughter is in such contrast to the

Libby is just gorgeous! She must be very sweet too. No wonder you are smitten!
ReplyDeleteShe's a doll, Grandma Dina! Look at her kissable cheeks!
ReplyDeleteThat professional photographer wouldn't be Edo would it? Libby is adorable, Dina! She is angelically beautiful.
ReplyDeleteShalom friends, thanks for all your nice words.
ReplyDeleteKay, "angelic," yes, the right word! I hadn't thought of it but I did feel that Libby would be perfect to illustrate these verses.
No, unfortunately Australian Libby's Uncle Edo is in Los Angeles; so the photo was taken by the photographer who comes to HoneyPot day care.
She is so sweet perfectly suited to the verses.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a blessed Sunday:-)
Lovely Libby, wonderful post.
ReplyDeleteShe is precious indeed. And a beautiful redhead too, I see (perhaps it is silly, but being a redhead myself, I always feel an affinity to others who share my recessive redhead genes!)...
ReplyDeleteYour granddaughter is so sweet! Lovely post!
