TYPES OF PSALMS (This is not a complete listing but describes the major types of psalms. Some psalms

could be put in more than one category.)

HYMNS are clearly structured: Introduction, body, conclusion

The introduction is a call to praise the Lord; the body tells why the Lord is worthy of

praise – usually God’s saving acts in history and/or creation; and then concludes with

Praise the Lord!

HYMNS: 8, 19:1-6, 29, 30, 33, 65, 66:1-12, 67, 92, 100, 104, 105, 107, 113, 114,

115, 116, 117, 118, 134, 135, 136, 138, 145, 146, 147, 148, 149, 150

WISDOM PSALMS contrast the just and wicked. Many of them begin with

“Better to …” or “Blessed is…” Lots of advice about conduct.

WISDOM PSALMS: 1, 32, 34, 37, 49, 11, 112, 113, 127, and 128

LAMENTS begin with a cry for help and a descr iption of the distress. The

psalmist gives God reasons why God should intervene. Most laments end with cer-

tainty that God has heard the prayer. There are more laments than any other type of

psalm!

INDIVIDUAL LAMENTS: 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 17, 22, 25, 26,

27, 28, 31, 35, 36, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59,

61, 63, 64, 69, 70, 71, 73, 77, 86, 88, 102, 109, 120, 130, 139, 140, 141,

142, 143

NATIONAL LAMENTS: 44, 60, 74, 79, 80, 83, 85, 89, 90, 94:1-7, 123, 129, 137,

144

HISTORICAL PSALMS give a summary of God’s saving act through Israel’s

history. These are excellent summaries of the Old Testament story!

HISTORICAL PSALMS: 78, 105, 106, 135, 136

TRUST PSALMS reassure the listeners of the goodness and faithfulness of God and

God’s ability to provide all that we need

TRUST PSALMS: 4, 11, 16, 23, 27:1-6, 62:1-8, 63, 125, 131
