Aniversário de idoso
O aniversário de um idoso é celebração de uma vida longa e cheia de experiências com Deus. A Bíblia honra os cabelos brancos como coroa de glória e prova da fidelidade divina.
Give thanks to Yahweh, because he always does good things for us
His faithful love for us lasts forever!
This is the day in which we remember that Yahweh acted powerfully to defeat our enemies;
we will rejoice and be glad/happy today.
A psalm written by David when he pretended to be insane in front of King Abimelech, so that the king would send him away
I will always thank Yahweh;
I will constantly praise him [MTY].
Yahweh makes me strong and protects me like a shield [MET];
I trusted in him, and he helped me.
I was glad,
and from my inner being I praised him as I sang to him.
You have made me very happy;
I am happier than people who have harvested a great amount of grain and grapes.
You will show me the road that leads to receiving eternal life,
and you will make me joyful when I am with you.
I will have pleasure forever when I am ◄at your right hand/seated next to you►.
There is one thing that I have requested from Yahweh;
this is the one thing that I desire:
That I may worship in Yahweh’s house/temple every day of my life,
and see that Yahweh is wonderful
and inquire what he wants me to do.
So teach/help us to realize that we live for only a short time
in order that we may use our time wisely.
Gray hair is like a glorious crown [MET]
that is given to people who have always behaved righteously.
We honor/admire young people because they are strong,
but we respect [MTY] old people more because they are wise.
But those who trust in Yahweh will become strong again;
it will be as though they will soar/fly high like [SIM] eagles do.
They will run for a long time and not become weary;
they will walk long distances and not faint.
"Now Yahweh has done for me what he promised. Forty-five years have passed since Moses said that to me during the time that we were wandering around in the desert. And just like Yahweh promised, he has kept me alive and well all during that time. Now I am eighty-five years old. I am as strong today as I was on the day that Moses sent me to explore this land. I am as ready to fight now as I was then.
‘I desire that Yahweh will bless you
and protect you,
and that he will smile at you
and act kindly toward you,
and that he will be good to you [IDM]
and cause things to go well for you.’"
Dear friend, I ask God that things may go well for you in every way, specifically, that you will be physically healthy just like you are spiritually healthy [MTY].
