Psalm 127-129

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.

    1 ALEPH. Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the LORD.
    2 Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart.
    3 They also do no iniquity: they walk in his ways.
    4 Thou hast commanded us to keep thy precepts diligently.
    5 O that my ways were directed to keep thy statutes!
    6 Then shall I not be ashamed, when I have respect unto all thy commandments.
    7 I will praise thee with uprightness of heart, when I shall have learned thy righteous judgments.
    8 I will keep thy statutes: O forsake me not utterly.

    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.

    Psalm 124-126

    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.

    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.

    Psalm 133-135

    Chapter 133

    1 A Song of degrees of David. Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!
    2 It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;
    3 As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.

    Chapter 134

    Chapter 139

    1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me.
    2 Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off.
    3 Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.
    4 For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether.
    5 Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.
    6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.

    Psalm 142-144

    Chapter 142

    1 Maschil of David; A Prayer when he was in the cave. I cried unto the LORD with my voice; with my voice unto the LORD did I make my supplication.
    2 I poured out my complaint before him; I showed before him my trouble.
    3 When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, then thou knewest my path. In the way wherein I walked have they privily laid a snare for me.
    4 I looked on my right hand, and beheld, but there was no man that would know me: refuge failed me; no man cared for my soul.

    6 And men shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and I will declare thy greatness.

    7 Praise the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:

    1 The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel;
    2 To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding;
    3 To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity;
    4 To give subtlety to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion.
    5 A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels:
    6 To understand a proverb, and the interpretation; the words of the wise, and their dark sayings.

    1 Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father, and attend to know understanding.
    2 For I give you good doctrine, forsake ye not my law.
    3 For I was my father's son, tender and only beloved in the sight of my mother.

    5 Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth.
    6 Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee: love her, and she shall keep thee.
