COMPLETE LIST OF THE PSALM CHAPTERS SPECIFICALLY ASKING FOR YAHWEH TO HELP YOU

 



PSALM 5

A PRAYER ASKING FOR YAHWEH’S HELP

Give ear to my words,

O LORD,

Consider my meditation.

Give heed 

to the voice of my cry,

My King and my God,

For to You 

I will pray.

My voice 

You shall hear 

in the morning, 

O LORD;

In the morning 

I will direct it to You,

And I will look up.

For You are not a God

who takes pleasure 

in wickedness,

Nor shall evil 

dwell with You.

The boastful shall not stand 

in Your sight;

You hate all 

workers of iniquity.

You shall destroy

those who speak falsehood;

The LORD abhors 

the bloodthirsty 

and deceitful man.

But as for me, 

I will come into Your house 

in the multitude

of Your mercy;

In fear of You 

I will worship 

toward Your holy temple.

Lead me, O LORD, 

in Your righteousness 

because of my enemies;

Make Your way straight 

before my face.

For there is no faithfulness

in their mouth;

Their inward part

is destruction;

Their throat

is an open tomb;

They flatter 

with their tongue.

10 

Pronounce them guilty, 

O God!

Let them fall 

by their own counsels;

Cast them out 

in the multitude 

of their transgressions,

For they have rebelled 

against You.

11 

But let all those rejoice

who put their trust in You;

Let them ever shout for joy, 

because You defend them;

Let those also 

who love Your name

Be joyful in You.

12 

For You, O LORD, 

will bless the righteous;

With favor 

You will surround him 

as with a shield.


-----------


PSALM 12

Help, LORD, 

for the godly man ceases!

For the faithful disappear 

from among 

the sons of men.

They speak idly 

everyone with his neighbor;

With flattering lips 

and a double heart 

they speak.

May the LORD cut off 

all flattering lips,

And the tongue 

that speaks proud things,

Who have said,

“With our tongue 

we will prevail;

Our lips are our own;

Who is lord over us?”

“For the oppression of the poor, 

for the sighing of the needy,

Now I will arise,” 

says the LORD;

“I will set him 

in the safety 

for which he yearns.”

The words of the LORD 

are pure words,

Like silver 

tried in a furnace of earth,

Purified seven times.

You shall keep them, 

O LORD,

You shall preserve them 

from this generation forever.

The wicked prowl 

on every side,

When vileness is exalted 

among the sons of men.

----------

PSALM 13

How long, O LORD? 

Will You forget me forever?

How long 

will You hide Your 

face from me?

How long shall I 

take counsel in my soul,

Having sorrow in my heart 

daily?

How long will my enemy 

be exalted over me?

Consider and hear me, 

O LORD my God;

Enlighten my eyes,

Lest I sleep 

the sleep of death;

4

Lest my enemy say,

“I have prevailed 

against him”;

Lest those 

who trouble me 

rejoice when I am moved.

But I have trusted 

in Your mercy;

My heart shall rejoice 

in Your salvation.

I will sing to the LORD,

Because 

He has dealt bountifully

with me.

----------

PSALM 28

To You I will cry,

O LORD my Rock:

Do not be silent to me,

Lest, 

if You are silent to me,

I become like those 

who go down to the pit.

Hear the voice 

of my supplications

When I cry to You,

When I lift up my hands 

toward Your holy sanctuary.

Do not take me away 

with the wicked

And with the workers of iniquity,

Who speak peace 

to their neighbors,

But evil 

is in their hearts.

4

Give them 

according to their deeds,

And according to the wickedness 

of their endeavors;

Give them 

according to the work 

of their hands;

Render to them 

what they deserve.

Because 

they do not regard 

the works of the LORD,

Nor the operation of His hands,

He shall destroy them

And not build them up.

Blessed be the LORD,

Because 

He has heard 

the voice of my supplications!

The LORD is my strength 

and my shield;

My heart trusted in Him, 

and I am helped;

Therefore 

my heart greatly rejoices,

And with my song 

I will praise Him.

The LORD is their strength,

And He is 

the saving refuge 

of His anointed.

Save Your people,

And bless Your inheritance;

Shepherd them also,

And bear them up forever.

----------

PSALM 35

Plead my cause,

O LORD, 

with those who 

strive with me;

Fight against those 

who fight against me.

Take hold of 

shield and buckler,

And stand up for my help.

3

Also draw out the spear,

And stop those 

who pursue me.

Say to my soul,

“I am your salvation.”

Let those be put to shame 

and brought to dishonor

Who seek after my life;

Let those be turned back 

and brought to confusion

Who plot my hurt.

Let them be like 

chaff before the wind,

And let the angel of the LORD 

chase them.

Let their way 

be dark and slippery,

And let the angel of the LORD 

pursue them.

For without cause 

they have hidden their net 

for me in a pit,

Which they have dug 

without cause for my life.

Let destruction come upon him 

unexpectedly,

And let his net 

that he has hidden 

catch himself;

Into that very destruction

let him fall.

And my soul 

shall be joyful in the LORD;

It shall rejoice 

in His salvation.

10 

All my bones shall say,

“LORD, who is like You,

Delivering the poor from him

who is too strong for him,

Yes, the poor and the needy 

from him who plunders him?”

11 

Fierce witnesses rise up;

They ask me things 

that I do not know.

12 

They reward me evil for good,

To the sorrow of my soul.

13 

But as for me, 

when they were sick,

My clothing was sackcloth;

I humbled myself with fasting;

And my prayer would return

to my own heart.

14

I paced about 

as though 

he were my friend or brother;

I bowed down heavily, 

as one who mourns for his mother.

15 

But in my adversity 

they rejoiced

And gathered together;

Attackers gathered against me,

And I did not know it;

They tore at me 

and did not cease;

16 

With ungodly mockers 

at feasts

They gnashed at me 

with their teeth.

17 

Lord, 

how long will You look on?

Rescue me 

from their destructions,

My precious life 

from the lions.

18 

I will give You thanks 

in the great assembly;

I will praise You 

among many people.

19 

Let them not rejoice over me 

who are wrongfully my enemies;

Nor let them wink with the eye 

who hate me without a cause.

20

For they do not speak peace,

But they devise 

deceitful matters

Against 

the quiet ones in the land.

21 

They also opened their mouth 

wide against me,

And said, “Aha, aha!

Our eyes have seen it.”

22 

This You have seen, 

O LORD;

Do not keep silence.

O Lord, 

do not be far from me.

23 

Stir up Yourself, 

and awake to my vindication,

To my cause, 

my God and my Lord.

24

Vindicate me, 

O LORD my God, 

according to Your

righteousness;

And let them 

not rejoice over me.

25 

Let them not say in their hearts,

“Ah, so we would have it!”

Let them not say, 

“We have swallowed him up.”

26

Let them be ashamed 

and brought 

to mutual confusion

Who rejoice at my hurt;

Let them be clothed 

with shame and dishonor

Who exalt themselves 

against me.

27 

Let them 

shout for joy 

and be glad,

Who favor 

my righteous cause;

And let them say continually,

“Let the LORD be magnified,

Who has pleasure 

in the prosperity 

of His servant.”

28 

And my tongue 

shall speak 

of Your righteousness

And of Your praise 

all the day long.

----------

PSALM 40

I waited patiently 

for the LORD;

And He inclined to me,

And heard my cry.

He also brought me up 

out of a horrible pit,

Out of the miry clay,

And set my feet 

upon a rock,

And established 

my steps.

3

He has put a new song 

in my mouth—

Praise to our God;

Many will see it 

and fear,

And will trust 

in the LORD.

Blessed is that man 

who makes the LORD 

his trust,

And does not respect 

the proud, 

nor such as 

turn aside to lies.

Many, O LORD my God, 

are Your wonderful works

Which You have done;

And Your thoughts toward us

Cannot be recounted to You 

in order;

If I would declare 

and speak of them,

They are more 

than can be numbered.

Sacrifice and offering 

You did not desire;

My ears You have opened.

Burnt offering 

and sin offering 

You did not require.

Then I said, 

“Behold, I come;

In the scroll of the book 

it is written of me.

I delight 

to do Your will, 

O my God,

And Your law 

is within my heart.”

I have proclaimed 

the good news 

of righteousness

In the great assembly;

Indeed, 

I do not restrain my lips,

O LORD, 

You Yourself know.

10 

I have not 

hidden Your righteousness 

within my heart;

I have 

declared Your faithfulness 

and Your salvation;

I have not 

concealed Your lovingkindness 

and Your truth

From the great assembly.

11 

Do not withhold 

Your tender mercies 

from me, O LORD;

Let Your lovingkindness 

and Your truth 

continually preserve me.

12 

For innumerable evils 

have surrounded me;

My iniquities 

have overtaken me, 

so that I am not able to look up;

They are more than 

the hairs of my head;

Therefore 

my heart fails me.

13 

Be pleased, 

O LORD, to deliver me;

O LORD, make haste to help me!

14 

Let them be ashamed and brought to mutual confusion

Who seek to destroy my life;

Let them be driven backward and brought to dishonor

Who wish me evil.

15 

Let them be confounded because of their shame,

Who say to me, “Aha, aha!”

16 

Let all those who seek You rejoice and be glad in You;

Let such as love Your salvation say continually,

“The LORD be magnified!”

17 

But I am poor and needy;

Yet the LORD thinks upon me.

You are my help and my deliverer;

Do not delay, O my God.

----------

PSALM 57

Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me!

For my soul trusts in You;

And in the shadow of Your wings I will make my refuge,

Until these calamities have passed by.

I will cry out to God Most High,

To God who performs all things for me.

He shall send from heaven and save me;

He reproaches the one who would swallow me up. Selah

God shall send forth His mercy and His truth.

4

My soul is among lions;

I lie among the sons of men

Who are set on fire,

Whose teeth are spears and arrows,

And their tongue a sharp sword.

5

Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;

Let Your glory be above all the earth.

They have prepared a net for my steps;

My soul is bowed down;

They have dug a pit before me;

Into the midst of it they themselves have fallen. Selah

My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast;

I will sing and give praise.

Awake, my glory!

Awake, lute and harp!

I will awaken the dawn.

9

I will praise You, O Lord, among the peoples;

I will sing to You among the nations.

10 

For Your mercy reaches unto the heavens,

And Your truth unto the clouds.

11 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;

Let Your glory be above all the earth.

----------

PSALM 69

Save me, O God!

For the waters have come up to my neck.

2

I sink in deep mire,

Where there is no standing;

I have come into deep waters,

Where the floods overflow me.

3

I am weary with my crying;

My throat is dry;

My eyes fail while I wait for my God.

Those who hate me without a cause

Are more than the hairs of my head;

They are mighty who would destroy me,

Being my enemies wrongfully;

Though I have stolen nothing,

I still must restore it.

O God, You know my foolishness;

And my sins are not hidden from You.

Let not those who wait for You, O Lord GOD of hosts, be ashamed because of me;

Let not those who seek You be confounded because of me, O God of Israel.

Because for Your sake I have borne reproach;

Shame has covered my face.

I have become a stranger to my brothers,

And an alien to my mother’s children;

Because zeal for Your house has eaten me up,

And the reproaches of those who reproach You have fallen on me.

10 

When I wept and chastened my soul with fasting,

That became my reproach.

11 

I also made sackcloth my garment;

I became a byword to them.

12 

Those who sit in the gate speak against me,

And I am the song of the drunkards.

13 

But as for me, my prayer is to You,

O LORD, in the acceptable time;

O God, in the multitude of Your mercy,

Hear me in the truth of Your salvation.

14 

Deliver me out of the mire,

And let me not sink;

Let me be delivered from those who hate me,

And out of the deep waters.

15

Let not the floodwater overflow me,

Nor let the deep swallow me up;

And let not the pit shut its mouth on me.

16 

Hear me, O LORD, for Your lovingkindness is good;

Turn to me according to the multitude of Your tender mercies.

17 

And do not hide Your face from Your servant,

For I am in trouble;

Hear me speedily.

18

Draw near to my soul, and redeem it;

Deliver me because of my enemies.

19 

You know my reproach, my shame, and my dishonor;

My adversaries are all before You.

20

Reproach has broken my heart,

And I am full of heaviness;

I looked for someone to take pity, but there was none;

And for comforters, but I found none.

21

They also gave me gall for my food,

And for my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.

22 

Let their table become a snare before them,

And their well-being a trap.

23

Let their eyes be darkened, so that they do not see;

And make their loins shake continually.

24 

Pour out Your indignation upon them,

And let Your wrathful anger take hold of them.

25 

Let their dwelling place be desolate;

Let no one live in their tents.

26 

For they persecute the ones You have struck,

And talk of the grief of those You have wounded.

27

Add iniquity to their iniquity,

And let them not come into Your righteousness.

28 

Let them be blotted out of the book of the living,

And not be written with the righteous.

29 

But I am poor and sorrowful;

Let Your salvation, O God, set me up on high.

30 

I will praise the name of God with a song,

And will magnify Him with thanksgiving.

31 

This also shall please the LORD better than an ox or bull,

Which has horns and hooves.

32

The humble shall see this and be glad;

And you who seek God, your hearts shall live.

33

For the LORD hears the poor,

And does not despise His prisoners.

34 

Let heaven and earth praise Him,

The seas and everything that moves in them.

35 

For God will save Zion

And build the cities of Judah,

That they may dwell there and possess it.

36 

Also, the descendants of His servants shall inherit it,

And those who love His name shall dwell in it.

----------

PSALM 70

Make haste, O God, to deliver me!

Make haste to help me, O LORD!

2

Let them be ashamed and confounded

Who seek my life;

Let them be turned back and confused

Who desire my hurt.

3

Let them be turned back because of their shame,

Who say,  “Aha, aha!”

Let all those who seek You rejoice and be glad in You;

And let those who love Your salvation say continually,

“Let God be magnified!”

5

But I am poor and needy;

Make haste to me, O God!

You are my help and my deliverer;

O LORD, do not delay.

----------

PSALM 86

1

Bow down Your ear, O LORD, hear me;

For I am poor and needy.

Preserve my life, for I am holy;

You are my God;

Save Your servant who trusts in You!

3

Be merciful to me, O Lord,

For I cry to You all day long.

4

Rejoice the soul of Your servant,

For to You, O Lord, I lift up my soul.

For You, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive,

And abundant in mercy to all those who call upon You.

6

Give ear, O LORD, to my prayer;

And attend to the voice of my supplications.

In the day of my trouble I will call upon You,

For You will answer me.

8

Among the gods there is none like You, O Lord;

Nor are there any works like Your works.

All nations whom You have made

Shall come and worship before You, O Lord,

And shall glorify Your name.

10 

For You are great, and do wondrous things;

You alone are God.

11

Teach me Your way, O LORD;

I will walk in Your truth;

Unite my heart to fear Your name.

12 

I will praise You, O Lord my God, with all my heart,

And I will glorify Your name forevermore.

13

For great is Your mercy toward me,

And You have delivered my soul from the depths of Sheol.

14 

O God, the proud have risen against me,

And a mob of violent men have sought my life,

And have not set You before them.

15 

But You, O Lord, are a God full of compassion, and gracious,

Longsuffering and abundant in mercy and truth.

16 

Oh, turn to me, and have mercy on me!

Give Your strength to Your servant,

And save the son of Your maidservant.

17 

Show me a sign for good,

That those who hate me may see it and be ashamed,

Because You, LORD, have helped me and comforted me.

----------

PSALM 119:169-176

169 Let my cry come before You, O LORD;

Give me understanding according to Your word.

170 Let my supplication come before You;

Deliver me according to Your word.

171 My lips shall utter praise,

For You teach me Your statutes.

172 My tongue shall speak of Your word,

For all Your commandments are righteousness.

173 Let Your hand become my help,

For I have chosen Your precepts.

174 I long for Your salvation, O LORD,

And Your law is my delight.

175 Let my soul live, and it shall praise You;

And let Your judgments help me.

176 I have gone astray like a lost sheep;

Seek Your servant,

For I do not forget Your commandments.

----------

PSALM 120

In my distress I cried to the LORD,

And He heard me.

2

Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips

And from a deceitful tongue.

What shall be given to you,

Or what shall be done to you,

You false tongue?

4

Sharp arrows of the warrior,

With coals of the broom tree!

Woe is me, that I dwell in Meshech,

That I dwell among the tents of Kedar!

6

My soul has dwelt too long

With one who hates peace.

I am for peace;

But when I speak, they are for war.

----------

PSALM 130

Out of the depths I have cried to You, O LORD;

Lord, hear my voice!

Let Your ears be attentive

To the voice of my supplications.

3

If You, LORD, should mark iniquities,

O Lord, who could stand?

But there is forgiveness with You,

That You may be feared.

I wait for the LORD, my soul waits,

And in His word I do hope.

6

My soul waits for the Lord

More than those who watch for the morning—

Yes, more than those who watch for the morning.

O Israel, hope in the LORD;

For with the LORD there is mercy,

And with Him is abundant redemption.

8

And He shall redeem Israel

From all his iniquities.


PSALM 142

1

I cry out to the LORD with my voice;

With my voice to the LORD I make my supplication.

I pour out my complaint before Him;

I declare before Him my trouble.

3

When my spirit was overwhelmed within me,

Then You knew my path.

In the way in which I walk

They have secretly set a snare for me.

4

Look on my right hand and see,

For there is no one who acknowledges me;

Refuge has failed me;

No one cares for my soul.

I cried out to You, O LORD:

I said, “You are my refuge,

My portion in the land of the living.

6 Attend to my cry,

For I am brought very low;

Deliver me from my persecutors,

For they are stronger than I.

7 Bring my soul out of prison,

That I may praise Your name;

The righteous shall surround me,

For You shall deal bountifully with me.”

----------

PSALM 143

Hear my prayer, O LORD,

Give ear to my supplications!

In Your faithfulness answer me,

And in Your righteousness.

Do not enter into judgment with Your servant,

For in Your sight no one living is righteous.

3

For the enemy has persecuted my soul;

He has crushed my life to the ground;

He has made me dwell in darkness,

Like those who have long been dead.

Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me;

My heart within me is distressed.

I remember the days of old;

I meditate on all Your works;

I muse on the work of Your hands.

I spread out my hands to You;

My soul longs for You like a thirsty land. Selah

7

Answer me speedily, O LORD;

My spirit fails!

Do not hide Your face from me,

Lest I be like those who go down into the pit.

Cause me to hear Your lovingkindness in the morning,

For in You do I trust;

Cause me to know the way in which I should walk,

For I lift up my soul to You.

Deliver me, O LORD, from my enemies;

In You I take shelter.

10 

Teach me to do Your will,

For You are my God;

Your Spirit is good.

Lead me in the land of uprightness.

11

Revive me, O LORD, for Your name’s sake!

For Your righteousness’ sake bring my soul out of trouble.

12

In Your mercy cut off my enemies,

And destroy all those who afflict my soul;

For I am Your servant.
