Psalms 48:9

³For your loving kindness is before my eyes. I have walked in your truth.

¹⁰Then I thought, “I will appeal to this: the years of the right hand of the Most High.” ¹¹I will remember the LORD’s deeds; for I will remember your wonders of old. ¹²I will also meditate on all your work, and consider your doings. ¹³Your way, God, is in the sanctuary. What god is great like God? ¹⁴You are the God who does wonders. You have made your strength known among the peoples.

¹⁰I have not hidden your righteousness within my heart. I have declared your faithfulness and your salvation. I have not concealed your loving kindness and your truth from the great assembly.

²So I have seen you in the sanctuary, watching your power and your glory. ³Because your loving kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise you.

⁵Jehoshaphat stood in the assembly of Judah and Jerusalem, in the LORD’s house, before the new court; ⁶and he said, “LORD, the God of our fathers, aren’t you God in heaven? Aren’t you ruler over all the kingdoms of the nations? Power and might are in your hand, so that no one is able to withstand you. ⁷Didn’t you, our God, drive out the inhabitants of this land before your people Israel, and give it to the offspring^[+] of Abraham your friend forever? ⁸They lived in it, and have built you a sanctuary in it for your name, saying, ⁹‘If evil comes on us—the sword, judgment, pestilence, or famine—we will stand before this house, and before you (for your name is in this house), and cry to you in our affliction, and you will hear and save.’ ¹⁰Now, behold, the children of Ammon and Moab and Mount Seir, whom you would not let Israel invade when they came out of the land of Egypt, but they turned away from them, and didn’t destroy them; ¹¹behold, how they reward us, to come to cast us out of your possession, which you have given us to inherit. ¹²Our God, will you not judge them? For we have no might against this great company that comes against us. We don’t know what to do, but our eyes are on you.”

¹³All Judah stood before the LORD, with their little ones, their wives, and their children.

³⁴Let my meditation be sweet to him. I will rejoice in the LORD.

⁴Take me away with you. Let’s hurry. The king has brought me into his rooms. Friends We will be glad and rejoice in you. We will praise your love more than wine! Beloved They are right to love you.

¹⁹He took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body which is given for you. Do this in memory of me.” ²⁰Likewise, he took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.

⁵Remember his marvelous works that he has done: his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth, ⁶you offspring of Abraham, his servant, you children of Jacob, his chosen ones.

⁸Yes, in the way of your judgments, LORD, we have waited for you. Your name and your renown are the desire of our soul.
