The Joy of The Lord

Walking with God

Daily Bible Reading - October 31st, 2021 | American Bible Society

Daily Bible Reading - October 31st, 2021 | American Bible Society: Psalm 10: In the reading on October 2 (Psalm 9), the writer expressed thanks and praise for God’s help in defeating his enemies. In today’s reading, the writer asks for God’s help against the wicked. In some traditions, the two psalms are combined inasmuch as the gratitude expressed in Psalm 9 is juxtaposed with the dismay in Psalm 10. While Psalm 10 opens with a lament about the remoteness of God, it concludes with the writer expressing trust that God hears the prayers of those who are oppressed.
