Here are two verses from Psalm 79, each followed by my translation from Spanish:<\/p>\n
“O remember not against us former iniquities: let thy tender mercies speedily prevent us: for we are brought very low”<\/font><\/b> (8).<\/p>\n “Do not remember against us the iniquities of our ancestors; let your mercies come soon to meet us, because we are very downcast.”<\/p>\n “So we thy people and sheep of thy pasture will give thee thanks for ever: we will shew forth thy praise to all generations”<\/font><\/b> (13).<\/p>\n “And we, your people and sheep of your pasture, will praise you forever; from generation to generation we will sing your praises.”<\/p>\n I like the picture in verse 8 of God’s mercies “backtracking” through life to meet me right where I am, right when I need them. God has already walked the way ahead of me, so He knows what I need to get through what’s coming. And His uplifting mercies come running to meet me and accompany me.<\/p>\n Posted: December 31<\/i><\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Here are two verses from Psalm 79, each followed by my translation from Spanish: “O remember not against us former iniquities: let thy tender mercies speedily prevent us: for we are brought very low” (8). “Do not remember against us the iniquities of our ancestors; let your mercies come soon to meet us, because we […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-394","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-psalms","7":"h-entry","8":"hentry","9":"h-as-article"},"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/prJBV-6m","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eaf.net\/pantinghart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/394","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eaf.net\/pantinghart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eaf.net\/pantinghart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eaf.net\/pantinghart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eaf.net\/pantinghart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=394"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.eaf.net\/pantinghart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/394\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eaf.net\/pantinghart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=394"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eaf.net\/pantinghart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=394"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eaf.net\/pantinghart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=394"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
