Psalms
The Psalter is Israel’s hymnbook: lament, praise, thanksgiving, royal psalms, and wisdom. It trains the heart to speak to God in trouble and in joy, and it points ahead to the Messiah.

Psalms 112
1Alleluia. Praise the Lord, children. Praise the name of the Lord. 2Blessed is the name of the Lord, from this time forward and even forever. 3From the rising of the sun, even to its setting, praiseworthy is the name of the Lord. 4The Lord is high above all nations, and his glory is high above the heavens. 5Who is like the Lord, our God, who dwells on high, 6and who gazes upon the humble things in heaven and on earth? 7He lifts up the needy from the ground, and he urges the poor away from filth, 8so that he may place him with the leaders, with the leaders of his people. 9He causes a barren woman to live in a house, as the joyful mother of sons.
