Psalms 120:1--134:3

120:1

<
<A Song <07892>

of degrees
<04609>.>>

In my distress
<06869>

I cried
<07121> (8804)

unto the LORD
<03068>_,

and he heard
<06030> (8799)

me.

120:2

Deliver
<05337> (8685)

my soul
<05315>_,

O LORD
<03068>_,

from lying
<08267>

lips
<08193>_,

[and] from a deceitful
<07423>

tongue
<03956>_.

120:3

What shall be given
<05414> (8799)

unto thee? or what shall be done
<03254> (8686)

unto thee, thou false
<07423>

tongue
<03956>_?

{What shall be given...: or, What shall the deceitful tongue give unto thee? or, what shall is profit thee?} {done: Heb. added}

120:4

Sharp
<08150> (8802)

arrows
<02671>

of the mighty
<01368>_,

with coals
<01513>

of juniper
<07574>_.

{Sharp...: or, It is as the sharp arrows of the mighty man, with coals of juniper}

120:5

Woe
<0190>

is me, that I sojourn
<01481> (8804)

in Mesech
<04902>_,

[that] I dwell
<07931> (8804)

in the tents
<0168>

of Kedar
<06938>_!

120:6

My soul
<05315>

hath long
<07227>

dwelt
<07931> (8804)

with him that hateth
<08130> (8802)

peace
<07965>_.

120:7

I [am for] peace
<07965>_:

but when I speak
<01696> (8762)_,

they [are] for war
<04421>_.

{for peace: or, a man of peace}

121:1

<
<A Song <07892>

of degrees
<04609>.>>

I will lift up
<05375> (8799)

mine eyes
<05869>

unto the hills
<02022>_,

from whence
<0370>

cometh
<0935> (8799)

my help
<05828>_.

{I will...: or, Shall I lift up mine eyes to the hills? whence should my help come?}

121:2

My help
<05828>

[cometh] from the LORD
<03068>_,

which made
<06213> (8802)

heaven
<08064>

and earth
<0776>_.

121:3

He will not suffer
<05414> (8799)

thy foot
<07272>

to be moved
<04132>_:

he that keepeth
<08104> (8802)

thee will not slumber
<05123> (8799)_.

121:4

Behold, he that keepeth
<08104> (8802)

Israel
<03478>

shall neither slumber
<05123> (8799)

nor sleep
<03462> (8799)_.

121:5

The LORD
<03068>

[is] thy keeper
<08104> (8802)_:

the LORD
<03068>

[is] thy shade
<06738>

upon thy right
<03225>

hand
<03027>_.

121:6

The sun
<08121>

shall not smite
<05221> (8686)

thee by day
<03119>_,

nor the moon
<03394>

by night
<03915>_.

121:7

The LORD
<03068>

shall preserve
<08104> (8799)

thee from all evil
<07451>_:

he shall preserve
<08104> (8799)

thy soul
<05315>_.

121:8

The LORD
<03068>

shall preserve
<08104> (8799)

thy going out
<03318> (8800)

and thy coming in
<0935> (8800)

from this time forth, and even for
<05704>

evermore
<05769>_.

122:1

<
<A Song <07892>

of degrees
<04609>

of David
<01732>.>>

I was glad
<08055> (8804)

when they said
<0559> (8802)

unto me, Let us go
<03212> (8799)

into the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

122:2

Our feet
<07272>

shall stand
<05975> (8802)

within thy gates
<08179>_,

O Jerusalem
<03389>_.

122:3

Jerusalem
<03389>

is builded
<01129> (8803)

as a city
<05892>

that is compact
<02266> (8795)

together
<03162>_:

122:4

Whither
<08033>

the tribes
<07626>

go up
<05927> (8804)_,

the tribes
<07626>

of the LORD
<03050>_,

unto the testimony
<05715>

of Israel
<03478>_,

to give thanks
<03034> (8687)

unto the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

122:5

For there are set
<03427> (8804)

thrones
<03678>

of judgment
<04941>_,

the thrones
<03678>

of the house
<01004>

of David
<01732>_.

{are...: Heb. do sit}

122:6

Pray
<07592> (8798)

for the peace
<07965>

of Jerusalem
<03389>_:

they shall prosper
<07951> (8799)

that love
<0157> (8802)

thee.

122:7

Peace
<07965>

be within thy walls
<02426>_,

[and] prosperity
<07962>

within thy palaces
<0759>_.

122:8

For my brethren
<0251>

and companions
<07453>_'

sakes, I will now say
<01696> (8762)_,

Peace
<07965>

[be] within thee.

122:9

Because of the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>

I will seek
<01245> (8762)

thy good
<02896>_.

123:1

<
<A Song <07892>

of degrees
<04609>.>>

Unto thee lift I up
<05375> (8804)

mine eyes
<05869>_,

O thou that dwellest
<03427> (8802)

in the heavens
<08064>_.

123:2

Behold, as the eyes
<05869>

of servants
<05650>

[look] unto the hand
<03027>

of their masters
<0113>_,

[and] as the eyes
<05869>

of a maiden
<08198>

unto the hand
<03027>

of her mistress
<01404>_;

so our eyes
<05869>

[wait] upon the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>_,

until that he have mercy
<02603> (8799)

upon us.

123:3

Have mercy
<02603> (8798)

upon us, O LORD
<03068>_,

have mercy
<02603> (8798)

upon us: for we are exceedingly
<07227>

filled
<07646> (8804)

with contempt
<0937>_.

123:4

Our soul
<05315>

is exceedingly
<07227>

filled
<07646> (8804)

with the scorning
<03933>

of those that are at ease
<07600>_,

[and] with the contempt
<0937>

of the proud
<03238> (8802) (8678) <01343> (8675) <01349>_.

124:1

<
<A Song <07892>

of degrees
<04609>

of David
<01732>.>>

If
<03884>

[it had not been] the LORD
<03068>

who was on our side, now may Israel
<03478>

say
<0559> (8799)_;

124:2

If
<03884>

[it had not been] the LORD
<03068>

who was on our side, when men
<0120>

rose up
<06965> (8800)

against us:

124:3

Then
<0233>

they had swallowed us up
<01104> (8804)

quick
<02416>_,

when their wrath
<0639>

was kindled
<02734> (8800)

against us:

124:4

Then
<0233>

the waters
<04325>

had overwhelmed
<07857> (8804)

us, the stream
<05158>

had gone over
<05674> (8804)

our soul
<05315>_:

124:5

Then
<0233>

the proud
<02121>

waters
<04325>

had gone over
<05674> (8804)

our soul
<05315>_.

124:6

Blessed
<01288> (8803)

[be] the LORD
<03068>_,

who hath not given
<05414> (8804)

us [as] a prey
<02964>

to their teeth
<08127>_.

124:7

Our soul
<05315>

is escaped
<04422> (8738)

as a bird
<06833>

out of the snare
<06341>

of the fowlers
<03369> (8802)_:

the snare
<06341>

is broken
<07665> (8738)_,

and we are escaped
<04422> (8738)_.

124:8

Our help
<05828>

[is] in the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

who made
<06213> (8802)

heaven
<08064>

and earth
<0776>_.

125:1

<
<A Song <07892>

of degrees
<04609>.>>

They that trust
<0982> (8802)

in the LORD
<03068>

[shall be] as mount
<02022>

Zion
<06726>_,

[which] cannot be removed
<04131> (8735)_,

[but] abideth
<03427> (8799)

for ever
<05769>_.

125:2

As the mountains
<02022>

[are] round about
<05439>

Jerusalem
<03389>_,

so the LORD
<03068>

[is] round about
<05439>

his people
<05971>

from henceforth even for
<05704>

ever
<05769>_.

125:3

For the rod
<07626>

of the wicked
<07562>

shall not rest
<05117> (8799)

upon the lot
<01486>

of the righteous
<06662>_;

lest
<04616>

the righteous
<06662>

put forth
<07971> (8799)

their hands
<03027>

unto iniquity
<05766>_.

{the wicked: Heb. wickedness}

125:4

Do good
<02895> (8685)_,

O LORD
<03068>_,

unto [those that be] good
<02896>_,

and [to them that are] upright
<03477>

in their hearts
<03826>_.

125:5

As for such as turn aside
<05186> (8688)

unto their crooked ways
<06128>_,

the LORD
<03068>

shall lead them forth
<03212> (8686)

with the workers
<06466> (8802)

of iniquity
<0205>_:

[but] peace
<07965>

[shall be] upon Israel
<03478>_.

126:1

<
<A Song <07892>

of degrees
<04609>.>>

When the LORD
<03068>

turned again
<07725> (8800)

the captivity
<07870>

of Zion
<06726>_,

we were like them that dream
<02492> (8802)_.

{turned...: Heb. returned the returning}

126:2

Then was our mouth
<06310>

filled
<04390> (8735)

with laughter
<07814>_,

and our tongue
<03956>

with singing
<07440>_:

then said
<0559> (8799)

they among the heathen
<01471>_,

The LORD
<03068>

hath done
<06213> (8800)

great things
<01431> (8689)

for them. {hath...: Heb. hath magnified to do with them}

126:3

The LORD
<03068>

hath done
<06213> (8800)

great things
<01431> (8689)

for us; [whereof] we are glad
<08056>_.

126:4

Turn again
<07725> (8798)

our captivity
<07622> (8675) <07622>_,

O LORD
<03068>_,

as the streams
<0650>

in the south
<05045>_.

126:5

They that sow
<02232> (8802)

in tears
<01832>

shall reap
<07114> (8799)

in joy
<07440>_.

{joy: or, singing}

126:6

He that goeth
<03212> (8799)

forth
<01980> (8800)

and weepeth
<01058> (8800)_,

bearing
<05375> (8802)

precious
<04901>

seed
<02233>_,

shall doubtless
<0935> (8800)

come
<0935> (8799)

again with rejoicing
<07440>_,

bringing
<05375> (8802)

his sheaves
<0485>

[with him]. {precious...: or, seed basket}

127:1

<
<A Song <07892>

of degrees
<04609>

for Solomon
<08010>.>>

Except the LORD
<03068>

build
<01129> (8799)

the house
<01004>_,

they labour
<05998> (8804)

in vain
<07723>

that build
<01129> (8802)

it: except the LORD
<03068>

keep
<08104> (8799)

the city
<05892>_,

the watchman
<08104> (8802)

waketh
<08245> (8804)

[but] in vain
<07723>_.

{for...: or, of Solomon} {that...: Heb. that are builders of it in it}

127:2

[It is] vain
<07723>

for you to rise up
<06965> (8800)

early
<07925> (8688)_,

to sit up
<03427> (8800)

late
<0309> (8764)_,

to eat
<0398> (8802)

the bread
<03899>

of sorrows
<06089>_:

[for] so he giveth
<05414> (8799)

his beloved
<03039>

sleep
<08142>_.

127:3

Lo, children
<01121>

[are] an heritage
<05159>

of the LORD
<03068>_:

[and] the fruit
<06529>

of the womb
<0990>

[is his] reward
<07939>_.

127:4

As arrows
<02671>

[are] in the hand
<03027>

of a mighty man
<01368>_;

so [are] children
<01121>

of the youth
<05271>_.

127:5

Happy
<0835>

[is] the man
<01397>

that hath his quiver
<0827>

full
<04390> (8765)

of them: they shall not be ashamed
<0954> (8799)_,

but they shall speak
<01696> (8762)

with the enemies
<0341> (8802)

in the gate
<08179>_.

{his...: Heb. filled his quiver with them} {speak...: or, subdue, or, destroy}

128:1

<
<A Song <07892>

of degrees
<04609>.>>

Blessed
<0835>

[is] every one that feareth
<03373>

the LORD
<03068>_;

that walketh
<01980> (8802)

in his ways
<01870>_.

128:2

For thou shalt eat
<0398> (8799)

the labour
<03018>

of thine hands
<03709>_:

happy
<0835>

[shalt] thou [be], and [it shall be] well
<02896>

with thee.

128:3

Thy wife
<0802>

[shall be] as a fruitful
<06509> (8802)

vine
<01612>

by the sides
<03411>

of thine house
<01004>_:

thy children
<01121>

like olive
<02132>

plants
<08363>

round about
<05439>

thy table
<07979>_.

128:4

Behold, that thus shall the man
<01397>

be blessed
<01288> (8792)

that feareth
<03373>

the LORD
<03068>_.

128:5

The LORD
<03068>

shall bless
<01288> (8762)

thee out of Zion
<06726>_:

and thou shalt see
<07200> (8798)

the good
<02898>

of Jerusalem
<03389>

all the days
<03117>

of thy life
<02416>_.

128:6

Yea, thou shalt see
<07200> (8798)

thy children's
<01121>

children
<01121>_,

[and] peace
<07965>

upon Israel
<03478>_.

129:1

<
<A Song <07892>

of degrees
<04609>.>>

Many a time
<07227>

have they afflicted
<06887> (8804)

me from my youth
<05271>_,

may Israel
<03478>

now say
<0559> (8799)_:

{Many...: or, Much}

129:2

Many a time
<07227>

have they afflicted
<06887> (8804)

me from my youth
<05271>_:

yet they have not prevailed
<03201> (8804)

against me. {Many...: or, Much}

129:3

The plowers
<02790> (8802)

plowed
<02790> (8804)

upon my back
<01354>_:

they made long
<0748> (8689)

their furrows
<04618> (8675) <04618>_.

129:4

The LORD
<03068>

[is] righteous
<06662>_:

he hath cut asunder
<07112> (8765)

the cords
<05688>

of the wicked
<07563>_.

129:5

Let them all be confounded
<0954> (8799)

and turned
<05472> (8735)

back
<0268>

that hate
<08130> (8802)

Zion
<06726>_.

129:6

Let them be as the grass
<02682>

[upon] the housetops
<01406>_,

which withereth
<03001> (8804)

afore
<06927>

it groweth up
<08025> (8804)_:

129:7

Wherewith the mower
<07114> (8802)

filleth
<04390> (8765)

not his hand
<03709>_;

nor he that bindeth sheaves
<06014> (8764)

his bosom
<02683>_.

129:8

Neither do they which go by
<05674> (8802)

say
<0559> (8804)_,

The blessing
<01293>

of the LORD
<03068>

[be] upon you: we bless
<01288> (8765)

you in the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

130:1

<
<A Song <07892>

of degrees
<04609>.>>

Out of the depths
<04615>

have I cried
<07121> (8804)

unto thee, O LORD
<03068>_.

130:2

Lord
<0136>_,

hear
<08085> (8798)

my voice
<06963>_:

let thine ears
<0241>

be attentive
<07183>

to the voice
<06963>

of my supplications
<08469>_.

130:3

If thou, LORD
<03050>_,

shouldest mark
<08104> (8799)

iniquities
<05771>_,

O Lord
<0136>_,

who shall stand
<05975> (8799)_?

130:4

But [there is] forgiveness
<05547>

with thee, that thou mayest be feared
<03372> (8735)_.

130:5

I wait
<06960> (8765)

for the LORD
<03068>_,

my soul
<05315>

doth wait
<06960> (8765)_,

and in his word
<01697>

do I hope
<03176> (8689)_.

130:6

My soul
<05315>

[waiteth] for the Lord
<0136>

more than they that watch
<08104> (8802)

for the morning
<01242>_:

[I say, more than] they that watch
<08104> (8802)

for the morning
<01242>_.

{I say...: or, which watch unto}

130:7

Let Israel
<03478>

hope
<03176> (8761)

in the LORD
<03068>_:

for with the LORD
<03068>

[there is] mercy
<02617>_,

and with him [is] plenteous
<07235> (8687)

redemption
<06304>_.

130:8

And he shall redeem
<06299> (8799)

Israel
<03478>

from all his iniquities
<05771>_.

131:1

<
<A Song <07892>

of degrees
<04609>

of David
<01732>.>>

LORD
<03068>_,

my heart
<03820>

is not haughty
<01361> (8804)_,

nor mine eyes
<05869>

lofty
<07311> (8804)_:

neither do I exercise
<01980> (8765)

myself in great matters
<01419>_,

or in things too high
<06381> (8737)

for me. {exercise...: Heb. walk} {high: Heb. wonderful}

131:2

Surely I have behaved
<07737> (8765)

and quieted
<01826> (8776)

myself
<05315>_,

as a child that is weaned
<01580> (8803)

of his mother
<0517>_:

my soul
<05315>

[is] even as a weaned child
<01580> (8803)_.

{myself: Heb. my soul}

131:3

Let Israel
<03478>

hope
<03176> (8761)

in the LORD
<03068>

from henceforth and for
<05704>

ever
<05769>_.

{henceforth: Heb. now}

132:1

A Song
<07892>

of degrees
<04609>_.

LORD
<03068>_,

remember
<02142> (8798)

David
<01732>_,

[and] all his afflictions
<06031> (8793)_:

132:2

How he sware
<07650> (8738)

unto the LORD
<03068>_,

[and] vowed
<05087> (8804)

unto the mighty
<046>

[God] of Jacob
<03290>_;

132:3

Surely I will not come
<0935> (8799)

into the tabernacle
<0168>

of my house
<01004>_,

nor go up
<05927> (8799)

into my bed
<06210> <03326>_;

132:4

I will not give
<05414> (8799)

sleep
<08153>

to mine eyes
<05869>_,

[or] slumber
<08572>

to mine eyelids
<06079>_,

132:5

Until I find out
<04672> (8799)

a place
<04725>

for the LORD
<03068>_,

an habitation
<04908>

for the mighty
<046>

[God] of Jacob
<03290>_.

{an habitation: Heb. habitations}

132:6

Lo, we heard
<08085> (8804)

of it at Ephratah
<0672>_:

we found
<04672> (8804)

it in the fields
<07704>

of the wood
<03293>_.

132:7

We will go
<0935> (8799)

into his tabernacles
<04908>_:

we will worship
<07812> (8691)

at his footstool
<01916> <07272>_.

132:8

Arise
<06965> (8798)_,

O LORD
<03068>_,

into thy rest
<04496>_;

thou, and the ark
<0727>

of thy strength
<05797>_.

132:9

Let thy priests
<03548>

be clothed
<03847> (8799)

with righteousness
<06664>_;

and let thy saints
<02623>

shout for joy
<07442> (8762)_.

132:10

For thy servant
<05650>

David's
<01732>

sake turn not away
<07725> (8686)

the face
<06440>

of thine anointed
<04899>_.

132:11

The LORD
<03068>

hath sworn
<07650> (8738)

[in] truth
<0571>

unto David
<01732>_;

he will not turn
<07725> (8799)

from it; Of the fruit
<06529>

of thy body
<0990>

will I set
<07896> (8799)

upon thy throne
<03678>_.

{body: Heb. belly}

132:12

If thy children
<01121>

will keep
<08104> (8799)

my covenant
<01285>

and my testimony
<05713>

that
<02090> (8675) <02097>

I shall teach
<03925> (8762)

them, their children
<01121>

shall also sit
<03427> (8799)

upon thy throne
<03678>

for evermore
<05703>_.

132:13

For the LORD
<03068>

hath chosen
<0977> (8804)

Zion
<06726>_;

he hath desired
<0183> (8765)

[it] for his habitation
<04186>_.

132:14

This [is] my rest
<04496>

for ever
<05703>_:

here will I dwell
<03427> (8799)_;

for I have desired
<0183> (8765)

it.

132:15

I will abundantly
<01288> (8763)

bless
<01288> (8762)

her provision
<06718>_:

I will satisfy
<07646> (8686)

her poor
<034>

with bread
<03899>_.

{abundantly: or, surely}

132:16

I will also clothe
<03847> (8686)

her priests
<03548>

with salvation
<03468>_:

and her saints
<02623>

shall shout aloud
<07442> (8762)

for joy
<07444> (8763)_.

132:17

There will I make
<06779> (0)

the horn
<07161>

of David
<01732>

to bud
<06779> (8686)_:

I have ordained
<06186> (8804)

a lamp
<05216>

for mine anointed
<04899>_.

{lamp: or, candle}

132:18

His enemies
<0341> (8802)

will I clothe
<03847> (8686)

with shame
<01322>_:

but upon himself shall his crown
<05145>

flourish
<06692> (8686)_.

133:1

<
<A Song <07892>

of degrees
<04609>

of David
<01732>.>>

Behold, how good
<02896>

and how pleasant
<05273>

[it is] for brethren
<0251>

to dwell
<03427> (8800)

together
<03162>

in unity
<03162>_!

{together...: Heb. even together}

133:2

[It is] like the precious
<02896>

ointment
<08081>

upon the head
<07218>_,

that ran down
<03381> (8802)

upon the beard
<02206>_,

[even] Aaron's
<0175>

beard
<02206>_:

that went down
<03381> (8802)

to the skirts
<06310>

of his garments
<04060>_;

133:3

As the dew
<02919>

of Hermon
<02768>_,

[and as the dew] that descended
<03381> (8802)

upon the mountains
<02042>

of Zion
<06726>_:

for there the LORD
<03068>

commanded
<06680> (8765)

the blessing
<01293>_,

[even] life
<02416>

for evermore
<05769>_.

134:1

<
<A Song <07892>

of degrees
<04609>.>>

Behold, bless
<01288> (8761)

ye the LORD
<03068>_,

all [ye] servants
<05650>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

which by night
<03915>

stand
<05975> (8802)

in the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

134:2

Lift up
<05375> (8798)

your hands
<03027>

[in] the sanctuary
<06944>_,

and bless
<01288> (8761)

the LORD
<03068>_.

{the sanctuary: or, holiness}

134:3

The LORD
<03068>

that made
<06213> (8802)

heaven
<08064>

and earth
<0776>

bless
<01288> (8762)

thee out of Zion
<06726>_.
