Psalm 129 - 131
Yahweh Has Cut the Cords of the Wicked
A Song of Ascents.
“Many times they have assailed me from my youth up,”
Let Israel now say,
2
“Many times they have assailed me from my youth up;
Yet they have not prevailed against me.
3
The plowers plowed upon my back;
They lengthened their furrows.”
4
Yahweh is righteous;
He has cut up the cords of the wicked.
5
Let all who hate Zion
Be put to shame and turned backward;
6
Let them be like grass upon the rooftops,
Which dries up before it grows up;
7
With which the reaper does not fill his hand,
Nor the binder of sheaves the fold of his garment;
8
And those who pass by will not say,
“The blessing of Yahweh be upon you;
We bless you in the name of Yahweh.”
Yahweh Will Redeem Israel
A Song of Ascents.
Out of the depths I called to You, O Yahweh.
2
O Lord, hear my voice!
Let Your ears be attentive
To the voice of my supplications.
3
If You should keep iniquities, O Yah,
O Lord, who could stand?
4
But with You there is forgiveness,
That You may be feared.
5
I hope for Yahweh, my soul does hope,
And for His word do I wait.
6
My soul waits for the Lord
More than the watchmen for the morning,
The watchmen for the morning.
7
O Israel, wait for Yahweh;
For with Yahweh there is lovingkindness,
And with Him is abundant redemption.
8
And it is He who will redeem Israel
From all his iniquities.
I Have Quieted My Soul
A Song of Ascents. Of David.
O Yahweh, my heart is not exalted, and my eyes are not raised high;
And I do not involve myself in great matters,
Or in matters too marvelous for me.
2
Surely I have soothed and quieted my soul,
Like a weaned child with his mother,
Like a weaned child is my soul within me.
3
O Israel, wait for Yahweh
From now until forever.
