Psalm
28:6-7 KJV: “Blessed be the Lord, because He has heard the voice of my
supplications. The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in Him,
and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I
praise Him.”
Psalm
28:6-7 NIRV: “Give praise to the Lord.
He has heard my cry for His favor.
The Lord gives me strength. He is
like a shield that keeps me safe. My
heart trusts in Him, and He helps me. My
heart jumps for joy. I will sing and
give thanks to him.
Song: Nearing the Shore
Nearing
the shore, we’re nearing the shore;
Trouble
soon will be over, we’ll suffer no more.
Toiling
all done, victory won,
It’s
joy to know that we’re nearing the shore.
(Laura Ashwood, Sing His
Praise)
Dorothy: What this means to me? In
NIRV, I found three words, “jumps for joy” that translates from “greatly
rejoiceth.” Sometimes the KJV seems
difficult to understand so I appreciate the translation to make it more clear
and meaningful. Even just for a verse
for today to keep me going. I just flip
the song book and I like this song because I had a vision of seeing two of our
dogs were barking from the shore, waiting for us to come home. It is a
comforting thought. May the Lord bless
you today!
