Shir Shel Yom - Song of the Day

A part of the morning Temple service, the Levi'im chanted a psalm that was suited to the significance of that particular day of the week. (Tamid 7:4) 


Monday - Today is the second day of the Shabbat, on which the Leviim would recite in the Holy Temple


Tehillim 48

A song, a psalm, by the sons of Korach. Great is HASHEM and much praised, in the city of our G-d, Mount of His Holiness. Fairest of sites, joy of all the earth is Mount Tziyon, by the northern sides of the great king's city. In her palaces G-d is known as the Stronghold. For behold - the kings assembled, they came together. They saw and they were astounded, they were confounded and hastily fled. Trembling gripped them there, convulsions like a woman in birth travail. With an east wind you smashed the ships of Tarshish. As we heard, so we saw in the city of HASHEM, Master of Legions, in the city of our G-d - may G-d establish it to eternity, Selah! We hoped, O G-d, for Your kindness, in the midst of Your Sanctuary. Like Your Name, O G-d, so is Your praise - to the ends of the earth; righteousness fills Your right hand. May Mount Tziyon be glad, may the daughters of Yehudah rejoice, because of Your judgments. Walk about Tziyon and encircle her, count her towers. Mark well in your hearts her ramparts, raise up her palaces, that you may recount it to the succeeding generation: that this is G-d, our G-d, forever and ever, He will guide us like children.

Tehillim 24

Of David a psalm. Hashem's is the earth and its fullness, the inhabited land and those who dwell in it. For He founded it upon seas, and established it upon rivers. Who may ascend the mountain of Hashem, and who may stand in the place of His sanctity? One with clean hands and pure heart, who has not sworn in vain by My soul and has not sworn deceitfully. He will receive a blessing from Hashem and just kindness from the G-d of his salvation. This is the generation of those who seek Him, those who strive for Your Presence  - Yaakov, Selah. Raise up your heads, O gates, and be uplifted you everlasting entrances, so that the King of Glory may enter. Who is this King of Glory? - Hashem, the mighty and strong, Hashem, the strong in battle. Raise up your heads, O gates, and raise up, you everlasting entrances, so that the King of Glory may enter. Who then is the King of Glory? Hashem, Master of Legions, He is the King of Glory. Selah!
