1 Unto the end. For those who will be changed. The testimony of Asaph. A Psalm. 2 The One who reigns over Israel: Be attentive. For you lead Joseph like a sheep. The One who sits upon the cherubim: Shine forth 3 in the presence of Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasseh. Awaken your power and draw […]

1 Unto the end. For the wine and oil presses. A Psalm of Asaph himself. 2 Exult before God our helper. Sing joyfully to the God of Jacob. 3 Take up a psalm, and bring forth the timbrel: a pleasing Psalter with stringed instruments. 4 Sound the trumpet at the new moon, on the noteworthy […]
