Psalm 90:14

Satisfy us in the morning with your loving kindness, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.

12So teach us to count our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
13Relent, LORD! How long? Have compassion on your servants!
14Satisfy us in the morning with your loving kindness, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
15Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us, for as many years as we have seen evil.
16Let your work appear to your servants, your glory to their children.

Psalm 143:8Cause me to hear your loving kindness in the morning, for I trust in you. Cause me to know the way in which I should walk, for I lift up my soul to you.Both prayers seek God’s loving kindness in the morning, one asking for satisfaction and the other for guidance.

Psalm 23:6Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the LORD’s house forever.Both connect God’s loving kindness with all the days of life, one through petition and the other through confidence.
Psalm 31:7I will be glad and rejoice in your loving kindness, for you have seen my affliction. You have known my soul in adversities.Both link gladness and rejoicing to God’s loving kindness, with affliction named in Psalm 31 and Psalm 90’s surrounding prayer.
Proverbs 19:23The fear of the LORD leads to life, then contentment; he rests and will not be touched by trouble.Both connect satisfaction with God: the psalm asks for his loving kindness, while the proverb links contentment with fearing the LORD.
Philippians 4:4Rejoice in the Lord always! Again I will say, “Rejoice!”Both speak of enduring rejoicing rooted in God, expressed as a prayer in the psalm and a command in Philippians.
Proverbs 19:20Listen to counsel and receive instruction, that you may be wise in your latter end.The link is limited: the psalm seeks gladness across a lifetime, while the proverb seeks wisdom for life’s later years.
Deuteronomy 33:23About Naphtali he said, “Naphtali, satisfied with favor, full of the LORD’s blessing, Possess the west and the south.”Satisfaction connects these passages: the psalm asks for it through God’s loving kindness, and Naphtali is described as satisfied with favor.
Zechariah 9:17For how great is his goodness, and how great is his beauty! Grain will make the young men flourish, and new wine the virgins.Both connect God’s goodness with human flourishing, though the psalm seeks gladness and Zechariah names grain and new wine.
