5, Psalm 128 ~ 131

Psalm 128

1 Blessed is every one that feareth the Lord; that walketh in his ways. 22 I
2 For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee. 6 I
3 Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy children like olive plants round about thy table. 2 I
4 Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the Lord. 2 I
5 The Lord shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life. 4 I
6 Yea, thou shalt see thy children’s children, and peace upon Israel. 6 I

 

Psalm 129

1 Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth, may Israel now say:
2 Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth: yet they have not prevailed against me.
3 The plowers plowed upon my back: they made long their furrows.
4 The Lord is righteous: he hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked.
5 Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion.
6 Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withereth afore it groweth up:
7 Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand; nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom.
8 Neither do they which go by say, The blessing of the Lord be upon you: we bless you in the name of the Lord.

 

Psalm 130

1 Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O Lord. 4 I
2 Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications. 8 I
3 If thou, Lord, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand? 5 I
4 But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared. 9 I
5 I wait for the Lord, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope. 15 I
6 My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning. 7 I
7 Let Israel hope in the Lord: for with the Lord there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption. 13 I
8 And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities. 4 I

 

Psalm 131

1 Lord, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty: neither do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too high for me. 4 I
2 Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his mother: my soul is even as a weaned child.
3 Let Israel hope in the Lord from henceforth and for ever. 7 I
