Psalms Chapter 120

1 (A Song of degrees.) In my distress I cried unto the LORD, and he 
heard me.

2 Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips, and from a deceitful tongue.

3 What shall be given unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou 
false tongue?

4 Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.

5 Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech, that I dwell in the tents of Kedar!

6 My soul hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace.

7 I am for peace: but when I speak, they are for war.

Psalms Chapter 121

1 (A Song of degrees.) I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from 
whence cometh my help.

2 My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.

3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not 
slumber.

4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.

5 The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.

6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.

7 The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.

8 The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time 
forth, and even for evermore.

Psalms Chapter 122

1 (A Song of degrees of David.) I was glad when they said unto me, Let 
us go into the house of the LORD.

2 Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.

3 Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact together:

4 Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, unto the testimony 
of Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the LORD.

5 For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David.

6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.

7 Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.

8 For my brethren and companions' sakes, I will now say, Peace be within 
thee.

9 Because of the house of the LORD our God I will seek thy good.

Psalms Chapter 123

1 (A Song of degrees.) Unto thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that 
dwellest in the heavens.

2 Behold, as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their masters, 
and as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; so our eyes 
wait upon the LORD our God, until that he have mercy upon us.

3 Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us: for we are exceedingly 
filled with contempt.

4 Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at 
ease, and with the contempt of the proud.

Psalms Chapter 124

1 (A Song of degrees of David.) If it had not been the LORD who was on 
our side, now may Israel say;

2 If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up 
against us:

3 Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled 
against us:

4 Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:

5 Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.

6 Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.

7 Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the 
snare is broken, and we are escaped.

8 Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.

Psalms Chapter 125

1 (A Song of degrees.) They that trust in the LORD shall be as mount 
Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever.

2 As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the LORD is round about 
his people from henceforth even for ever.

3 For the rod of the wicked shall not rest upon the lot of the 
righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands unto iniquity.

4 Do good, O LORD, unto those that be good, and to them that are upright 
in their hearts.

5 As for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, the LORD shall lead 
them forth with the workers of iniquity: but peace shall be upon Israel.

Psalms Chapter 126

1 (A Song of degrees.) When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, 
we were like them that dream.

2 Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: 
then said they among the heathen, The LORD hath done great things for them.

3 The LORD hath done great things for us; whereof we are glad.

4 Turn again our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the south.

5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

6 He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall 
doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.

Psalms Chapter 127

1 (A Song of degrees for Solomon.) Except the LORD build the house, they 
labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the 
watchman waketh but in vain.

2 It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread 
of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved sleep.

3 Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is 
his reward.

4 As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.

5 Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be 
ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.

Psalms Chapter 128

1 (A Song of degrees.) Blessed is every one that feareth the LORD; that 
walketh in his ways.

2 For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and 
it shall be well with thee.

3 Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy 
children like olive plants round about thy table.

4 Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the LORD.

5 The LORD shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of 
Jerusalem all the days of thy life.

6 Yea, thou shalt see thy children's children, and peace upon Israel.

Psalms Chapter 129

1 (A Song of degrees.) 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.

Psalms Chapter 130

1 (A Song of degrees.) Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O LORD.

2 Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my 
supplications.

3 If thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?

4 But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.

5 I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.

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 Let Israel hope in the LORD: for with the LORD there is mercy, and 
with him is plenteous redemption.

8 And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.

Psalms Chapter 131

1 (A Song of degrees of David.) 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.

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.

Psalms Chapter 132

1 A Song of degrees. LORD, remember David, and all his afflictions:

2 How he sware unto the LORD, and vowed unto the mighty God of Jacob;

3 Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house, nor go up into 
my bed;

4 I will not give sleep to mine eyes, or slumber to mine eyelids,

5 Until I find out a place for the LORD, an habitation for the mighty 
God of Jacob.

6 Lo, we heard of it at Ephratah: we found it in the fields of the wood.

7 We will go into his tabernacles: we will worship at his footstool.

8 Arise, O LORD, into thy rest; thou, and the ark of thy strength.

9 Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness; and let thy saints 
shout for joy.

10 For thy servant David's sake turn not away the face of thine anointed.

11 The LORD hath sworn in truth unto David; he will not turn from it; Of 
the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne.

12 If thy children will keep my covenant and my testimony that I shall 
teach them, their children shall also sit upon thy throne for evermore.

13 For the LORD hath chosen Zion; he hath desired it for his habitation.

14 This is my rest for ever: here will I dwell; for I have desired it.

15 I will abundantly bless her provision: I will satisfy her poor with 
bread.

16 I will also clothe her priests with salvation: and her saints shall 
shout aloud for joy.

17 There will I make the horn of David to bud: I have ordained a lamp 
for mine anointed.

18 His enemies will I clothe with shame: but upon himself shall his 
crown flourish.
