Another great characteristic of the prayers that compose the book of the Psalms is its capacity of orientation and direct influence on who realizes them, which ends up being mixed with the historical importance, reason for its emergence. Each one of the 150 existing Psalms was produced under the tension or conquest of a certain historical moment of the Hebrew people, asking for the relief of the evils before moments of affliction or destining body and soul in thanksgiving to God. Thus, each of the Psalms also has a lesson to pass to whoever will use them.
Pronounced words, often as a mantra or a song, have the power to influence their devotees with positive energies, bringing light and calm to their spirits.

1 Hasten, O God, to save me;
come quickly, Lord, to help me.2 May those who want to take my life
be put to shame and confusion;
may all who desire my ruin
be turned back in disgrace.
3 May those who say to me, “Aha! Aha!”
turn back because of their shame.
4 But may all who seek you
rejoice and be glad in you;
may those who long for your saving help always say,
“The Lord is great!”5 But as for me, I am poor and needy;
come quickly to me, O God.
You are my help and my deliverer;
Lord, do not delay.
