TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
Suffering is hard for righteous people, but the suffering of being unrighteous is ultimately far worse. As you read our assigned passage for today, pray that you will always seek the good and loathe what is wrong.
Psalm 119
Resh ר
153 Look on my suffering and deliver me,
for I have not forgotten your law.
154 Defend my cause and redeem me;
preserve my life according to your promise.
155 Salvation is far from the wicked,
for they do not seek out your decrees.
156 Your compassion, Lord, is great;
preserve my life according to your laws.
157 Many are the foes who persecute me,
but I have not turned from your statutes.
158 I look on the faithless with loathing,
for they do not obey your word.
159 See how I love your precepts;
preserve my life, Lord, in accordance with your love.
160 All your words are true;
all your righteous laws are eternal.
