Tehillim Remix

A little "remix" from the book of Psalms (Tehillim)

Hear my cry, O Elohim; Give heed to my prayer[1]. Let the lying lips be mute, which speak arrogantly against the righteous with pride and contempt[2]. There is nothing reliable in what they say; their inward part is destruction itself, their throat is an open grave; they flatter with their tongue[3]. The words of YHWH are pure words; as silver tried in a furnace on the earth, refined seven times[4]. We will sing for joy over your victory, and in the name of our Elohim we will set up our banners, May YHWH fulfill all your petitions[5]. Your adversaries have roared in the midst of Your meeting place; they have set up their own standards for signs[6]. Let them be caught in the plots which they have devised[7]. My shield is with Elohim, who saves the upright in heart[8]. And my enemy will say, "I have overcome him," and my adversaries will rejoice when I am shaken[9]. I have set YHWH continually before me; because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken[10]. From the mouth of infants and nursing babes You have established strength because of Your adversaries, to make the enemy and the revengeful cease[11]. I call upon YHWH, who is worthy to be praised[12]. YHWH of hosts is with us; the Elohim of Jacob is our stronghold. Selah[13]. Arise, O YHWH, confront him, bring him low[14], That I may proclaim with the voice of thanksgiving and declare all Your wonders[15]. What elohim is great like our Elohim?[16] You are the Elohim who works wonders; You have made known Your strength among the peoples[17], You have by Your power redeemed Your people[18]. I will give thanks to YHWH with all my heart; I will tell of all Your wonders[19]. Arise, O Elohim, and plead Your own cause,[20] For by You I can run upon a troop; and by my Elohim I can leap over a wall[21]. You have also given me the shield of Your salvation, and Your right hand upholds me; and Your gentleness makes me great[22]. YHWH lives, and blessed be my rock; and exalted be the Elohim of my salvation[23]. Some boast in chariots and some in horses, but we will boast in the name of YHWH, our Elohim[24]. I shall lift up the cup of salvation and call upon the name of YHWH[25].
