Psalm 109:1-31 Book# 5 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks] |
*O God, of My praise, [don't] hold Your peace; for the mouth of: the wicked & the deceitful are opened against Me. They have spoken against Me with a lying tongue. [Matthew 26:59-62 *Now, the chief priests, elders, & all the council, sought false witness against Jesus, to put Him to death; but found none. |
[Yes,] though many false witnesses came, [still] they found none. At the last, 2 false witnesses came, & said, This Fellow said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, & to build it in three days. And the high priest arose, & said to Him, [Do] You [answer] nothing? What is it [that] these [testify] against You?] |
*They also [surrounded around] Me with words of hatred, & fought against Me without a cause. [John 15:25 *But this [happened, so] that the Word might be fulfilled that is written in their Law, They hated Me without a cause. |
*But when the Comforter [has] come, Whom I will send to you from the Father, even the [Holy] Spirit of Truth, [Who proceeds] from the Father, He shall testify of Me. And also, you shall bear witness, because you have been with Me from the beginning.] |
*They are My adversaries, for My love, but I give Myself unto prayer. And they have rewarded Me evil for good, & hatred for My love. [Matthew 12:13-15 Then He [said] to the man, Stretch [out] your hand. And he stretched it [out,] & it was restored whole, like the other. |
*Then, the Pharisees went out, & held a council against Him, how they might destroy Him. But when Jesus knew it, He withdrew Himself from [there,] & great multitudes followed Him, & He healed them all.] |
You [put] a wicked man over Him. *And let Satan stand at his right hand [side.] [Luke 22:2-6 And the chief priests & scribes sought how they might kill Him; for they feared the people. *Then, Satan entered into Judas, surnamed Iscariot, being [from] the number of the 12 [disciples.] |
And he went [on] his way, & [conferred] with the chief priests & captains, how he might betray [Jesus] to them. And they were glad, & [agreed] to give him money. And he promised, & sought [an] opportunity to betray Him to them, [when] the multitude [wasn't present.] |
When he shall be judged, let him be condemned, & let his prayer become sin. [Matthew 27:3-7 Then, Judas, [who] had betrayed [Jesus, regretted,] when he saw that [Jesus] was condemned, & brought again the 30 pieces of silver to the chief priests & elders, saying, I have sinned, in that, I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said, [What's] that to us? You, see to that. *And [Judas threw] down the pieces of silver in the temple, & [left,] & went & [hung] himself. And the chief priests took the silver pieces, & said, It is not lawful for us to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood. And they [got advice,] & bought the Potter's Field with them, to bury strangers in.] |
*Let his days be few, & let another take his office. [Acts 1:17-20 For [Judas] was numbered with us, & obtained part of this ministry. Now, this man purchased a field with the reward [for sin,] & falling headlong, he burst [into pieces] in the midst, & all his [guts] gushed out. |
And [that field] was known [to all who lived there in] Jerusalem; & is called in their [own language,] Aceldama, that is to say, The Field of Blood. *For it is written in the Book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate; & let no man [live in it;] & let his another take his [office.] |
Let his children be fatherless, & his wife a widow. Let his children continually be [wanderers,] & beg. Let them also seek their bread [from] their desolate, [a.k.a. abandoned,] places. Let the extortioner catch all that he [has,] & let strangers spoil his [labor.] |
Let there be none to extend mercy to him; & neither let there be any to [favor] his fatherless children. Let his posterity be cut off; & in the following generation, let their name be blotted out. Let the [sin] of his [forefathers] be remembered with the Lord; & [don't] let the sin of his mother be blotted out. |
Let them continually be before the Lord, [so] that He may [destroy] the memory of them from the earth. Because he [who] remembered to not [show] mercy, but persecuted the poor & needy man, [so] that he might even slay [those with a] broken heart. [John 12:3-6 Then, Mary took a pound of very costly, spikenard ointment, & anointed [Jesus'] feet, & wiped His feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the [aroma] of the ointment. Then one of His disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, [who would] betray Him, [said,] Why wasn't this ointment sold for 300 pence, & given to the poor? He said this, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, & had the bag, & [carried] what was put [in it.] |
[Like] he loved cursing, [also] let [cursing happen] to him. [Like] he delighted in not blessing, [also] let [blessings] be far from him. [Matthew 7:1-2 Judge not, [so] that you [aren’t] judged. For with what judgment you judge, you shall be judged. And with what measure you [measure out,] It shall be measured to you again.] |
As he clothed himself with cursing, like with his garment, let it [also] come into his [inward parts,] like water, & like oil into his bones. Let it be to him [like] the garment [that covers] him, & for a [belt in which] he is continually [fastened.] [Revelation 3:19-21 As many as I love, I [reprimand,] & [chastise.] Therefore, be zealous, & repent. [Watch,] I stand at the door & knock. If any man [hears] My voice, & [opens] the door, I will come in to him, & will [dine] with him, & he with Me. I will grant to him, [who overcomes,] to sit with Me [on] My throne, even [like] I also overcame, & Am [sitting] down with My Father [on] His throne.] |
Let this be the reward of [My enemies] from the Lord, [for those who] speak evil against My [life.] But O Lord God, do [this] for Me, for Your Name's sake, You deliver Me, because Your mercy is good. For I am poor & needy, & My heart within me is wounded. [Luke 22:41-44 And when He was at the place, He said to them, Pray that you [don't] enter into temptation. And He was withdrawn from them about a stone's [throw,] & kneeled down, & prayed, saying, Father, if You [are] willing, remove this cup from Me, nevertheless, not My will, but Yours, be done. And there appeared an Angel to Him from heaven, strengthening Him. And being in agony, He prayed more earnestly; & His sweat was [like] it were [large] drops of blood falling down to the ground.] |
I am gone, like the shadow when it declines, [a.k.a. fades away.] I am tossed [back & forth like] the locust. My knees are weak through [hunger,] & My flesh [hasn't any] fatness. [John 19:28-30 After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, [so] that the Scripture might be fulfilled, [said,] I thirst. Now, a vessel full of vinegar was set there, & they filled a [sponge] with vinegar, & put it upon hyssop, [a.k.a. reed,] & put it to His mouth. Therefore, when Jesus received the vinegar, He said, It is finished. And He bowed His head, & gave up the ghost, [a.k.a. died.] |
I also became a [disgrace] to them: when they looked upon Me, & they [shook] their heads. [Matthew 27:38-40 Then, there were 2 thieves crucified with Him, one on the right hand, & another on the left. And [those who] passed by [ridiculed] Him, wagging their heads, & saying, You, [Who destroys] the temple, & [builds] it in 3 days, save Yourself. If You [are] the Son of God, come down from the cross.] |
O Lord My God, help Me, & save Me according to Your mercy: [so] that they may know that this is [by] Your hand. That You, Lord [have] done it. |
[Acts 2:22-24 *You men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a Man among you, approved [by] God, as you, yourselves also know by: miracles, wonders, & signs, which God did by Him in the midst of you. Him being delivered by the [conclusive] counsel, & [God's] [omniscient] foreknowledge, you have taken, & by wicked hands have crucified & [killed,] Whom God [has] raised up, having [loosened, a.k.a. not confined, to] the pains of death; because it was not possible that He should be [held by] it.] |
Let them curse, but You bless [them, so] when they arise, let them be ashamed. [Isaiah 55:6-7 You seek the Lord while He may be found, & you, call upon Him while He is near. Let the wicked [abandon] his [ways,] & the unrighteous man [abandon] his thoughts. And let him return to the Lord, & He will have mercy upon him, & [return] to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.] |
But let Your servant rejoice. [Ezekiel 18:23 The Lord [says,] [Do] I have any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? And [shouldn't] [I have more pleasure] that he should return from his ways, & live?] |
Let [My enemies] be clothed with shame, & let them cover themselves with their own confusion, [like] with a [cloak.] [Matthew 28:9-15 And as they, [the women,] went to tell His disciples, [looked,] & Jesus met them, saying, All hail, [a.k.a. Rejoice.] And they came & held Him by the feet, & worshiped Him. Then, Jesus said to them, [Don't] be afraid. Go tell My brethren [so] that they go into Galilee, & they shall see Me there. Now, when they were going, behold, some [guards went] into the city, & [declared] to the chief priests all the things that were done. And when they were assembled with the elders, & had [gotten advice,] they gave large [sums of] money to the soldiers. Saying, You say, His disciples came [at] night, & stole Him away while we slept. And if this [comes] to the governor's ears, we will persuade him, & [make] you secure, [a.k.a. safe.] So, they took the money, & did as they were taught. And this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day.] |
I will praise the Lord greatly with My mouth. [Yes,] I will praise Him among the [multitudes.] [*1 Corinthians 15:3-9 For I, [a.k.a. Paul, & Saul,] delivered to you first of all, [what] I also received, & how that Christ died for our sins, according to the scriptures. *And that He was buried, & that He rose again, the 3rd day, according to the Scriptures. And that He was seen [by] Cephas, [a.k.a. Peter,] then the 12. After that, He was seen [by over] 500 brethren at once, of whom the [larger] part remain [until] this present [time,] but some [have died.] After that, He was seen [by] James; then [by] all the apostles. And last of all, He was seen [by] me also, [like a past-due baby] born out of due time.] |
For He shall stand at the right hand of the poor, to save him from those [who] [condemns] his soul. [Psalm 35:9-10 And my soul shall be joyful in the Lord. It shall rejoice in His Salvation. All my bones shall say, Lord, who is [similar] to You, [Who delivers] the poor from him, [who] is too strong for him. [Yes,] the poor & needy [are delivered] from him, [who plunders] him?] |
And I heard, but [didn't understand.] Then, I said, O my Lord, What shall be the end of these things? And He said, Go [on] your way, Daniel: for the Words are closed up and sealed till the time of the End. Daniel 12:8-9 KJV
About the Author of the Blogsite, Not the Author of the Bible:
About the Author of the Blogsite, Not the Author of the Bible: Since the Lord had it on my heart to write this blog, I was uncertain of how to accomplish this, mindful of Revelation 22:18-19, which says that nobody is to add to, or to take away from what was written in the Bible. After lots of prayerful contemplation, the Lord had it on my heart that I’m not to change the meaning of what is written in the Bible. He has also shown ways to add to people’s understating of that meaning, without altering the meaning, by putting that info within [brackets]. This is primarily accomplished with the KJV Bible and lots of prayers, but at times, BibleGateway.com, Biblehub.com, NIV Bible, Webster Dictionary, and other internet resources, as needed.

About Understanding the Bible:
Understanding the Bible: After reading Isaiah 28:10 many times over the years and not totally understanding it, it recently became apparent to me that the Lord God has this passage as the means for understanding the Bible.
For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little. Isaiah 28:10 KJV.
Being prayerful about this passage, and looking up 'precept' in the Webster's Dictionary, it gave this passage a whole new meaning, once 'commandment' is substituted for 'precept'. Within brackets are additional words the Lord had on my heart to aid in understanding the meaning.
For commandment must be [built up] upon commandment; commandment upon commandment; line upon line, line upon line; [developing understanding] here a little, and there a little.
The Table Format:
The Table Format: I was overwhelmed with how to explain the process for determining if someone had leprosy in Leviticus 13, which seemed very complicated. After praying, "Lord, if this is difficult for me to understand after reading it many times, how can this be explained to others?" The thought the Lord God had on my heart was for me to put it into a vertical chart to visually see the process. This made it much easier for me to follow the progression. After doing so, I prayed, "Lord, how can this be conveyed to readers, so that they can understand this process?" The thought the Lord God had on my heart was to put it within the lines of a table. Being a stiff-necked, stubborn person, as it's often called in the Bible, I prayed, asking the Lord God if He's sure that's really what He wanted me to do? I reluctantly put Leviticus 13 into a table format. When I read this difficult leprosy process within a table format, it suddenly became easier for me to understand. That's because it builds line upon line, as explained in the Understanding the Bible section. Shortly after that, the Lord God had it on my heart, to put all of The Books of the Bible in Smaller Chunks within a table format, to aid in understanding, line upon line.
