The Psalms, starting at chapter 121
Psalm 121
A Song of Ascents.
{121:1} I will lift up my eyes to the hills.
Where does my help come from?
{121:2} My help comes from Yahweh,
who made heaven and earth.
{121:3} He will not allow your foot to be moved.
He who keeps you will not slumber.
{121:4} Behold, he who keeps Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.
{121:5} Yahweh is your keeper.
Yahweh is your shade on your right hand.
{121:6} The sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.
{121:7} Yahweh will keep you from all evil.
He will keep your soul.
{121:8} Yahweh will keep your going out and your coming in,
from this time forth, and forevermore.
Psalm 122
A Song of Ascents. By David.
{122:1} I was glad when they said to me,
"Let's go to Yahweh's house!"
{122:2} Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem;
{122:3} Jerusalem, that is built as a city that is compact together;
{122:4} where the tribes go up, even Yah's tribes,
according to an ordinance for Israel,
to give thanks to the name of Yahweh.
{122:5} For there are set thrones for judgment,
the thrones of David's house.
{122:6} Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.
Those who love you will prosper.
{122:7} Peace be within your walls,
and prosperity within your palaces.
{122:8} For my brothers' and companions' sakes,
I will now say, "Peace be within you."
{122:9} For the sake of the house of Yahweh our God,
I will seek your good.
Psalm 123
A Song of Ascents.
{123:1} To you I do lift up my eyes,
you who sit in the heavens.
{123:2} Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their
master,
as the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress;
so our eyes look to Yahweh, our God,
until he has mercy on us.
{123:3} Have mercy on us, Yahweh, have mercy on us,
for we have endured much contempt.
{123:4} Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scoffing of those who
are at ease,
with the contempt of the proud.
