Check it out under the Psalm tab. Psalm 9 and 10 are an acrostic package.
A praise acrostic. An acrostic is a poem, or in this case a psalm, in which each line or stanza begins with a consecutive letter of the alphabet. We see this frequently in children’s books because it both helps the child learn the alphabet and memorize the content.
You know: “A” is for apple on the tree; “B” is for bird flying free; “C” is for chimp acting badly; “D” is for dog scratching a flea and “E” is for elephant learning to ski.
Of course as these psalms were originally written by David in the Hebrew language, the acrostic is lost in translation. But it is a great way to teach children about God’s works and ways.
