Psalms 128-133
Skip Heitzig
Psalms 128 (NKJV™) | |
1 | A Song of Ascents. Blessed is every one who fears the LORD, Who walks in His ways. |
2 | When you eat the labor of your hands, You shall be happy, and it shall be well with you. |
3 | Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine In the very heart of your house, Your children like olive plants All around your table. |
4 | Behold, thus shall the man be blessed Who fears the LORD. |
5 | The LORD bless you out of Zion, And may you see the good of Jerusalem All the days of your life. |
6 | Yes, may you see your children's children. Peace be upon Israel! |
Psalms 129 (NKJV™) | |
1 | A Song of Ascents. "Many a time they have afflicted me from my youth," Let Israel now say-- |
2 | "Many a time they have afflicted me from my youth; Yet they have not prevailed against me. |
3 | The plowers plowed on my back; They made their furrows long." |
4 | The LORD is righteous; He has cut in pieces the cords of the wicked. |
5 | Let all those who hate Zion Be put to shame and turned back. |
6 | Let them be as the grass on the housetops, Which withers before it grows up, |
7 | With which the reaper does not fill his hand, Nor he who binds sheaves, his arms. |
8 | Neither let those who pass by them say, "The blessing of the LORD be upon you; We bless you in the name of the LORD!" |
Psalms 130 (NKJV™) | |
1 | A Song of Ascents. Out of the depths I have cried to You, O LORD; |
2 | Lord, hear my voice! Let Your ears be attentive To the voice of my supplications. |
3 | If You, LORD, should mark iniquities, O Lord, who could stand? |
4 | But there is forgiveness with You, That You may be feared. |
5 | I wait for the LORD, my soul waits, And in His word I do hope. |
6 | My soul waits for the Lord More than those who watch for the morning--Yes, more than those who watch for the morning. |
7 | O Israel, hope in the LORD; For with the LORD there is mercy, And with Him is abundant redemption. |
8 | And He shall redeem Israel From all his iniquities. |
Psalms 131 (NKJV™) | |
1 | A Song of Ascents. Of David. LORD, my heart is not haughty, Nor my eyes lofty. Neither do I concern myself with great matters, Nor with things too profound for me. |
2 | Surely I have calmed and quieted my soul, Like a weaned child with his mother; Like a weaned child is my soul within me. |
3 | O Israel, hope in the LORD From this time forth and forever. |
Psalms 132 (NKJV™) | |
1 | A Song of Ascents. LORD, remember David And all his afflictions; |
2 | How he swore to the LORD, And vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob: |
3 | "Surely I will not go into the chamber of my house, Or go up to the comfort of my bed; |
4 | I will not give sleep to my eyes Or slumber to my eyelids, |
5 | Until I find a place for the LORD, A dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob." |
6 | Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah; We found it in the fields of the woods. |
7 | Let us go into His tabernacle; Let us worship at His footstool. |
8 | Arise, O LORD, to Your resting place, You and the ark of Your strength. |
9 | Let Your priests be clothed with righteousness, And let Your saints shout for joy. |
10 | For Your servant David's sake, Do not turn away the face of Your Anointed. |
11 | The LORD has sworn in truth to David; He will not turn from it: "I will set upon your throne the fruit of your body. |
12 | If your sons will keep My covenant And My testimony which I shall teach them, Their sons also shall sit upon your throne forevermore." |
13 | For the LORD has chosen Zion; He has desired it for His dwelling place: |
14 | "This is My resting place forever; Here I will 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 I will make the horn of David grow; I will prepare a lamp for My Anointed. |
18 | His enemies I will clothe with shame, But upon Himself His crown shall flourish." |
Psalms 133 (NKJV™) | |
1 | A Song of Ascents. Of David. Behold, how good and how pleasant it is For brethren to dwell together in unity! |
2 | It is like the precious oil upon the head, Running down on the beard, The beard of Aaron, Running down on the edge of his garments. |
3 | It is like the dew of Hermon, Descending upon the mountains of Zion; For there the LORD commanded the blessing--Life forevermore. |
