Save Me, O God - Psalm 69-72

Save Me, O God

[9] For zeal for Your house has consumed me, And the reproaches of those who reproach You have fallen on me. 

[Psa 69:9 LSB]

[17] His disciples remembered that it was written, "ZEAL FOR YOUR HOUSE WILL CONSUME ME."

[Jhn 2:17 LSB]

[2] Each of us is to please his neighbor for his good, to his building up.
[3] For even Christ did not please Himself; but as it is written, "THE REPROACHES OF THOSE WHO REPROACHED YOU FELL ON ME." 

[Rom 15:2-3 LSB]

[21] They also gave [me] gall for my food And for my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
[Psa 69:21 LSB]

[28] After this, Jesus, knowing that all things had already been finished, in order to finish the Scripture, said, "I am thirsty." 

[29] A jar full of sour wine was standing there; so they put a sponge full of the sour wine upon [a branch of] hyssop and brought it up to His mouth. 

[30] Therefore when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, "It is finished!" And bowing His head, He gave up His spirit. 

[Jhn 19:28-30 LSB]

 

 O Yahweh, Do Not Delay

[5] But I am afflicted and needy; Hasten to me, O God! You are my help and my protector; O Yahweh, do not delay. 

[Psa 70:5 LSB]

O God, Do Not Forsake Me

[9] Do not cast me off in the time of old age; Do not forsake me when my strength fails. ... 

[Psa 71:9 LSB]

[17] O God, You have taught me from my youth, And I still declare Your wondrous deeds. 

[18] And even when [I am] old and gray, O God, do not forsake me, Until I declare Your strength to [this] generation, Your might to all who are to come. 

[Psa 71:17-18 LSB]

Give the King Your Judgments

[8] May he also have dominion from sea to sea And from the River to the ends of the earth. 

[Psa 72:8 LSB]

[10] I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim And the horse from Jerusalem; And the bow of war will be cut off. And He will speak peace to the nations; And His reign will be from sea to sea And from the River to the ends of the earth.
[Zec 9:10 LSB]
