For the LORD takes pleasure in his people; he adorns the humble with victory. Let the faithful exult in glory; let them sing for joy on their couches.

Bible Gateway passage: Psalm 147 - New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
Psalm 147 Praise for God’s Care for Jerusalem - Praise the LORD! How good it is to sing praises to our God; for he is gracious, and a song of praise is fitting. The LORD builds up Jerusalem; he gathers the outcasts of Israel. He heals the broken-hearted, and binds up their wounds. He determines the number of the stars; he gives to all of them their names. Great is our Lord, and abundant in power; his understanding is beyond measure.
#Psalm 146
Mortal trust expires,

Psalm 146 Praise for God’s Help - Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD, O my soul! I will praise the LORD as long as I live; I will sing praises to my God all my life long. Do not put your trust in princes, in mortals, in whom there is no help. When their breath departs, they return to the earth; on that very day their plans perish. Happy are those whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD their God,
#Psalm 145

Psalm 145 The Greatness and the Goodness of God - Praise. Of David. I will extol you, my God and King, and bless your name for ever and ever. Every day I will bless you, and praise your name for ever and ever. Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; his greatness is unsearchable. One generation shall laud your works to another, and shall declare your mighty acts. On the glorious splendour of your majesty, and on your wondrous works, I will meditate.

Bible Gateway passage: Psalm 144 - New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
Psalm 144 Prayer for National Deliverance and Security - Of David. Blessed be the LORD, my rock, who trains my hands for war, and my fingers for battle; my rock and my fortress, my stronghold and my deliverer, my shield, in whom I take refuge, who subdues the peoples under me. O LORD, what are human beings that you regard them, or mortals that you think of them? They are like a breath; their days are like a passing shadow. Bow your heavens, O LORD, and come down; touch the mountains so that they smoke.
#Psalm 143
Though I'm in the dark,
memory still testifies

Bible Gateway passage: Psalm 143 - New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
Psalm 143 Prayer for Deliverance from Enemies - A Psalm of David. Hear my prayer, O LORD; give ear to my supplications in your faithfulness; answer me in your righteousness. Do not enter into judgement with your servant, for no one living is righteous before you. For the enemy has pursued me, crushing my life to the ground, making me sit in darkness like those long dead. Therefore my spirit faints within me; my heart within me is appalled. I remember the days of old, I think about all your deeds, I meditate on the works of your hands.
#Psalm 142
I cry to the LORD:
here I have no help but you,
my refuge, my right.

Bible Gateway passage: Psalm 142 - New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
Psalm 142 Prayer for Deliverance from Persecutors - A Maskil of David. When he was in the cave. A Prayer. With my voice I cry to the LORD; with my voice I make supplication to the LORD. I pour out my complaint before him; I tell my trouble before him. When my spirit is faint, you know my way. In the path where I walk they have hidden a trap for me. Look on my right hand and see— there is no one who takes notice of me; no refuge remains to me; no one cares for me. I cry to you, O LORD; I say, ‘You are my refuge, my portion in the land of the living.’
