Psalms of Solomon 10

Accepting Chastening Brings Cleanse

Open in the reader →

1Blessed is the man whom the Lord remembered with rebuke, and who was turned away from an evil way by a scourge, to be cleansed from sin, so that it might not increase.

2The one who prepares his back for scourges will be cleansed, for the Lord is good to those who endure discipline.

3For he has made straight the ways of the righteous, and he will not pervert them in discipline.

4And the mercy of the Lord is upon those who love him in truth, and the Lord will remember his servants with mercy.

5For the testimony is in the law of the everlasting covenant; the testimony of the Lord is upon the ways of men in visitation.

6Righteous and holy is our Lord in his judgments forever, and Israel will praise the name of the Lord with gladness.

7And the pious will give thanks in the assembly of the people, and God will have mercy on the poor in the gladness of Israel.

8For God is kind and merciful forever, and the assemblies of Israel will glorify the name of the Lord.

9The Lord’s salvation is upon the house of Israel for everlasting self-control.
