May there be abundant peace from heaven and life for us and for all Yisrael, —and say Amein. He Who makes the peace in His high heavens may He, make peace for us and or all Yisrael, and say, Amein.

On Sunday: Today is the first day of the week, on which the Levites used to recite in the Holy Temple: A psalm of Dovid: the earth is Adonoy’s and the fullness thereof,³¹ the inhabited world and those who dwell in it. For He founded it upon the seas, and established it upon rivers. Who may ascend the mountain³² of Adonoy, and who may stand in the place of His holiness? The clean of hands and the pure of heart, who has not borne My soul in vain, and has not sworn deceitfully.³³ He will bear Adonoy’s blessing³⁴ and righteousness from the God of his deliverance. This is the generation of those who seek Him, the seekers of Your Presence, [God of] Yaakov,³⁵ selah. Lift up your heads, gates, and be uplifted [you] entranceways to eternity, so that the King of Glory may enter. Who is this King of Glory? Adonoy, strong and mighty; Adonoy, the Mighty One in battle. Lift up your heads, gates, and lift, entranceways to eternity, so that the King of Glory may enter. Who is He, this King of Glory? Adonoy Tzevaos, He is the King of Glory, selah.

footnotes:
³¹ Rabbi Yehudah says in the name of Rabbi Akiva, “On the first day of the week, the Levites sang psalm 24, The earth is Adonoy’s and the fullness thereof, because then Hashem took possession of His newly created world for Himself, in order to give possession to mankind. Yet He remained the sole Master of the world.”—Maseches Rosh Hashana 31a
³² Ibn Ezra says that “mountain” refers to Mount Moriah, the location of the Temple. Dovid composed this psalm on the day he purchased the Temple site from Aravna the Jebusite.
³³ He whose piety is genuine and who will not use the Name of Hashem to deceive others.—S.R. Hirsch
³⁴ This person can expect that Hashem will give him whatever will best serve his genuine welfare.—S.R. Hirsch
³⁵ “Yaakov” refers to all of Yisrael, the true descendants of the patriarch Yaakov.—Radak

On Tuesday: Today is the third day of the week, on which the Levites used to recite in the Holy Temple: A psalm of Assaf God stands in the congregation of the Almighty,³⁶ in the midst of the judges He gives judgement. How long will you judge lawlessly and show partiality to the wicked, Selah? Render justice to the lowly and the orphan, deal righteously with the poor and destitute. Rescue the lowly and the needy, save them from the hand of the wicked. They neither know nor understand,³⁷ they walk along in darkness, all the foundations of the earth are shaken.³⁸ I had said “You are godlike beings, all of you sons of the Most High.” Nevertheless, you shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes. Arise, God, judge the earth, for You will inherit all the nations.

footnotes:
³⁶ Assaf was one of the ten composers who contributed to the Book of Tehillim; he wrote eleven psalms (73-83). The leading Levite musician of his times, he was also endowed with the spirit of prophecy.The Talmud designates psalm 82 for the third day of the week because on the third day of creation, Hashem in His wisdom revealed the earth and established the world for His chosen “congregation.” This is an allusion to Bereishis 1:9 where we read, “Hashem said, ‘Let the waters beneath the heavens be gathered (congregate) into one place, so that the dry land may appear.”—Maseches Rosh Hashana 31a
³⁷ “They” refers to the judges.
³⁸ Justice is one of the three pillars upon which the earth rests ( Maseches Avos 1:18). Without justice there is no stability in the world.

On Wednesday: Today is the fourth day of the week, on which the Levites used to recite in the Holy Temple: Almighty of vengeance, Adonoy,³⁹ Almighty of vengeance, reveal Yourself. Arise Judge of the earth, repay the arrogant their just reward. How long shall the wicked— Adonoy— how long shall the wicked exult? They express, they speak with arrogance; all the evildoers are boastful. Adonoy, they crush Your people and Your heritage they oppress. The widow and stranger they kill, and orphans they murder. And they say, “God does not see, the God of Yaakov is not concerned.” Consider, [you] stupid [ones] among the people,— and you fools when will you become wise? He Who implanted the ear, does He not hear? He Who formed the eye, does He not see? He Who chastises nations, does He not reprove— He that teaches man knowledge? Adonoy knows the thoughts of men, that they are vanity. Fortunate is the man whom You chastise, God, and whom You instruct from Your Torah. To grant him tranquility from days of evil, until the pit is dug for the wicked. for Adonoy will not abandon His people and His inheritance, He will not forsake. For justice shall return unto righteousness, and all the upright in heart will follow it. Who will rise up for me against the wicked, who will stand up for me against the evildoers? Had Adonoy not been my help, in an instant my soul would have dwelt in the silent grave If [Whenever] I said, my foot has slipped, Your kindliness, Adonoy upheld me. When (worrisome) thoughts multiply within me, Your consolations soothe my soul. Can a tribunal of evil have accord with You— [a tribunal] that makes iniquity into law? They gang up against the life of the righteous, and blood of the innocent they condemn. Adonoy has been my stronghold, my God the Rock of my refuge. He turns their violence against them, and destroys them with their own wickedness; Adonoy, my God, destroys them. Come let us sing to Adonoy; let us shout for joy to the Rock of our Deliverance.⁴⁰ Let us greet Him with thanksgiving; with song let us shout for joy to Him. for a great Almighty is Adonoy; a great King over all godlike beings.

footnotes:
³⁹ Psalm 94, “Mighty one of retribution” was sung on the fourth day because Hashem created the sun and the moon on the fourth day, and He will punish those who worship them.—Maseches Rosh Hashana

Your throne stands firm from of old, You are from eternity. The rivers have raised—Adonoy— the rivers have raised their voice, the rivers raise their raging waves. More than the roar of many waters, mightier than the breakers of the sea, mighty on high are You “Adonoy.” Your testimonies are extremely faithful; holiness is becoming to Your House, Adonoy,—for the length of days.

By Dovid: Adonoy is my light and my salvation, whom shall I fear? Adonoy is the strength⁴² of my life, of whom shall I be afraid? When evildoers approach me to devour my flesh— my tormentors and my foes they stumble and fall. If an army should encamp against me, my heart would not fear; if war were to rise against me in this⁴³ I trust. One thing I request of Adonoy, [only] that shall I seek: that I may dwell⁴⁴ in the House of Adonoy all the days of my life, to behold the pleasantness of Adonoy, and to meditate in His Sanctuary. For He will hide me in His Tabernacle⁴⁵ on the day of distress, He will conceal me in the shelter of His Tent, upon a rock He will lift me. And now my head is raised high above my enemies around me;⁴⁶ and I will offer in His Tent, sacrifices [accompanied] with trumpets of joy; I will sing and chant to Adonoy. Adonoy, hear my voice⁴⁷ when I call; be gracious to me and answer me. Of You, my heart has said, “Seek My Presence”; Your Presence, Adonoy I will seek. Conceal not Your Presence from me, do not turn away Your servant in anger. You have been my help; neither cast me off nor abandon me, God of my deliverance. Altough my father and mother abandon⁴⁸ me, Adonoy will gather me up. Adonoy, teach me Your way, and lead me in the path of uprightness, because of my watchful foes.⁴⁹ Do not deliver me to the will of my tormentors, for false witnesses have risen against me, who breathe violence. Had I not believed⁵⁰ that I would see the goodness of Adonoy in the land of living.⁵¹ Hope to Adonoy, be strong and He will give you courage; and hope to Adonoy.

⁴⁷ This verse alludes to Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur. “Hear my voice,” refers to Rosh Hashana when we sound the shofar. The word “my voice (sound)” refers to the “voice” of the shofar. “When I call” refers to Yom Kippur, about which Yeshaya (55:6) said, “call to Him when He is near.”—Siddur HaGra
⁴⁸ Even if I were so depraved that my own mother and father would abandon me to my own devices, Hashem would still gather me up and believe in my ability to mend my ways.—S.R. Hirsch

⁵⁰ “These false witnesses would have destroyed me had I not believed that I would see the goodness of Hashem in the land of the living.”—Rashi, Radak
⁵¹ There are various interpretations of the “Land of the living.” Some hold that it refers to the present world in which we live—Metsudas Tziyon; Ramban holds that it refers to the World-to- Come; and Malbim says that it refers to Eretz Yisroel.
