Psalms 35-36

Psalms 35-36

Chapter 35: The Lord will Judge Thee

A Psalm of David.

                “Let them be confounded and put to shame that seek after my soul…” (Psalms 25:4)

                David complains about his enemies and asks the Lord to help him in his dire situation.

                He asks the Lord to bless him and to judge him for his righteousness and for his enemies to “…be ashamed and brought to confusion … that rejoice in my hurt…” (Psalms 35:26)

Chapter 36: The Fountain of Life

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David the servant of the Lord.

                The wicked have “…no fear of God before his eyes.” (Psalms 36:1)

                Even though wickedness exists, those who are not wicked can find shelter and comfort with the Lord. David explains how he feels about the Lord; “Thy righteousness is like the great mountains; thy judgments are a great deep: O God! Therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings” (Psalms 36:6-7)

                Both of these chapters are very simple and straightforward… wickedness will never prevail and the Lord will provide protection from evil, Always!
