Psalms In Haiku Poems

Psalm-91

He who dwells
In the abode of Most High
Rests in his shadow.


He is my refuge
My fortress and my God
In whom I trust.


He delivers
From the snare of the Fowler
And pestilence.


He will cover you
Under his wings,you will
Take refuge.


His faithfulness
Is your shield and rampart
You shall not fear.


Terror by night
Arrows by day,pestilence
You will not fear for.


A thousand may fall
Ten thousand at your right fall
Will not come near you.


You look with your eyes
Recompense of the wicked
Take refuge in Love.


No evil happens
No plague nears your place
For angels guard you.


Angels will bear you
No stone to dash but treads on
Lion and cobra.


I set him on high
He has known my Name
Answer him when calls.


I deliver
Fulfill him with a long life
With my salvation.

Psalm- 92

O Most High
We sing praises to your Name
We give thanks.


In the morning
Proclaim loving kindness
And faith in the night.


With lute and harp
We make melody with lyre
We sing praises.


I will triumph
How great are your works
Your thoughts are deep.


You do exalt me
I am anointed with fresh oil
Enemies scattered.


The righteous flourishes
Like cedar in Lebanon
And like palm tree.


They will flourish
Will bring forth fruit in old age
With sap and green.

Psalm-93

Love reigns
Clothed with majesty
Armed with strength.


World can not be moved
Established from long ago
You are eternal.


Love is mighty
Holiness adorns your house
Forevermore.

Psalm-94

Rise up
You judge of the earth
Pay back the proud.


Beloved
How long will the wicked win
Pour out arrogance.


Evildoer's boast
Break your people in pieces
Heritage depressed.


They kill the widow
Murder the fatherless,say
Love will not see.


He who implanted,
Will hear, will see and punish
The fools.


The pit is dug
For the wicked,but his own
Forsakes not.


My foot is slipping
Your kindness held me up
I delight in Love.


You are my tower
My God,the Rock of refuge
Saves the innocent.

Psalm-95

O Come let us sing
To Lord make joyful noise
Our salvation.


O Come bow down
Kneel before the Lord
Our maker.

Let us come before
We extol him with songs
We offer thanks.


Deep places of earth
High mountains are his
The sea is his.


He is our God
The people of his pasture
The sheep in his hand


Forty long years
I was grieved with the people
This generation


It is a people
That do err in their heart
Not known my ways

Psalm-96

Sing a new song
Sing to Love,all the earth
Bless his name.


Love is great
And greatly to be praised
And to be feared


Love made the heavens
Strength and beauty in his home
Glory and strength shine.


All the earth tremble
Love reigns,tell the nations
Judges with equity.


Let the sea roar
Let heavens be glad
Let earth rejoice.


Let the field,
Be joyful all that is there
Let the wood rejoice.

Psalm-97

Righteousness and justice
The foundations of Love's throne
Clouds around him.


His lightning
Lights up the world,earth sees
Earth trembles.


The heavens declare
Peoples have seen his glory
Righteousness shines.


Be glad in Love
You righteous people,give thanks
To his holy name

Psalm-98

Sing a new song
He has done marvelous things
By his right hand.


He has remembered
His kindness and faithfulness
Salvation seen

Sing for joy
Make a joyful noise to Love
Sing praises.


Sing praises to Love
Make the voice of melody
With harp.


Let the seas roar
Let rivers clap their hands
Let the mountains sing


He comes to judge
Judge with righteousness
And equity.


Psalm-99

Love reigns
Enthroned among the cherubim
The people tremble.


Great in Zion
High above all the people
He is holy.


Exalt our Love
Worship at his footstool
He is holy.


He spoke to them
In the pillar of cloud
Kept testimonies.


Exalt our God
Worship at his holy hill
Our God is holy.

Psalm-100

Shout for joy
All you lands,serve Love
With gladness.


Come before
His presence with singing
Know that Love is God.


We are his people
The sheep of his pasture
He made us all


Get in to his gates
In to his courts with praise
And with thanksgiving.


His loving kindness
Faith to all generations
Endures for ever
