Psalm 3 3,4
3 But you, Lord, are a shield around me,
my glory, the One who lifts my head high.
4 I call out to the Lord,
and he answers me from his holy mountain.

Psalm 34
4 I sought the Lord, and he answered me;
he delivered me from all my fears.
5 Those who look to him are radiant;
their faces are never covered with shame.
6 This poor man called, and the Lord heard him;
he saved him out of all his troubles.
7 The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear him,
and he delivers them.

Psalm 1
1 How blessed is anyone who rejects the advice of the wicked and does not take a stand in the path that sinners tread, nor a seat in company with cynics,
2 but who delights in the law of Yahweh and murmurs his law day and night.
3 Such a one is like a tree planted near streams; it bears fruit in season and its leaves never wither, and every project succeeds.
4 How different the wicked, how different! Just like chaff blown around by the wind
5 the wicked will not stand firm at the Judgement nor sinners in the gathering of the upright.
6 For Yahweh watches over the path of the upright, but the path of the wicked is doomed.

Not a Psalm today, but a quote:
My humanity is bound up in yours, for we can only be human together.
Desmond Tutu
South African religious leader Desmond Tutu has often spoken of human interconnectedness and the power of mutual care and respect. He upholds the importance of compassion and ubuntu, an African concept of shared humanity, which is reflected in the quote above. Tutu was the first Black person to hold several religious leadership roles in South Africa, and he used his position to oppose racial segregation and apartheid in the 1970s. In 1984, he won the Nobel Peace Prize for his racial justice work. After apartheid ended, Tutu was chosen to lead the country’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission, which worked to address the human rights offenses of apartheid and promote national healing. An eloquent and passionate optimist, his belief that all people are connected and inherently good helped to unite a fractured nation.

Then I will go to the altar of God, to God, my joy and my delight. I will praise you with the lyre, O God, my God. —Psalm 43:4
