Agradecimento pela vida
Agradecer pela vida é reconhecer que cada respiração é dom de Deus. Toda criatura que tem fôlego louve ao Senhor — porque Ele nos formou e nos sustenta com amor.
Let every thing that has breath praise the Lord.
Alleluia, a Psalm of Aggæus and Zacharias.
Praise ye the Lord: for psalmody is a good thing; let praise be sweetly sung to our God. The Lord builds up Jerusalem; and he will gather together the dispersed of Israel.
I know that the Lord will maintain the cause of the poor, and the right of the needy ones. Surely the righteous shall give thanks to thy name: the upright shall dwell in thy presence.
And he smote their vines and their fig-trees; and broke every tree of their coast. He spoke, and the locust came, and caterpillars innumerable,
I have not set before mine eyes any unlawful thing; I have hated transgressors. A perverse heart has not cleaved to me; I have not known an evil man, forasmuch as he turns away from me.
Submit thyself to the Lord, and supplicate him: fret not thyself because of him that prospers in his way, at the man that does unlawful deeds. Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself so as to do evil. For evil-doers shall be destroyed: but they that wait on the Lord, they shall inherit the land.
For the end, a Psalm of David, an utterance of extreme fear.
O Lord, I have hoped in thee; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness and rescue me. Incline thine ear to me; make haste to rescue me: be thou to me for a protecting God, and for a house of refuge to save me.
For the end, a Psalm of David, concerning the secrets of the Son.
I will give thanks to thee, O Lord, with my whole heart; I will recount all thy wonderful works.
And thou shalt eat and be filled, and shalt bless the Lord thy God on the good land, which he has given thee.
Rechs. O Lord, thou hast pleaded the causes of my soul; thou hast redeemed my life.
Water was poured around me to the soul: the lowest deep compassed me, my head went down to the clefts of the mountains; I went down into the earth, whose bars are the everlasting barriers: yet, O Lord my God, let my ruined life be restored.
