Bible-Reading.comPsalm 128
1A song of ascents. Blessed are all who fear the LORD, who walk in His ways!
2For when you eat the fruit of your labor, blessings and prosperity will be yours.
3Your wife will be like a fruitful vine flourishing within your house, your sons like olive shoots sitting around your table.
4In this way indeed shall blessing come to the man who fears the LORD.
5May the LORD bless you from Zion, that you may see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life,
6that you may see your children’s children. Peace be upon Israel!
Psalm 129
1A song of ascents. Many a time they have persecuted me from my youth— let Israel now declare—
2many a time they have persecuted me from my youth, but they have not prevailed against me.
3The plowmen plowed over my back; they made their furrows long.
4The LORD is righteous; He has cut me from the cords of the wicked.
5May all who hate Zion be turned back in shame.
6May they be like grass on the rooftops, which withers before it can grow,
7unable to fill the hands of the reaper, or the arms of the binder of sheaves.
8May none who pass by say to them, “The blessing of the LORD be on you; we bless you in the name of the LORD.”
Psalm 130
1A song of ascents. Out of the depths I cry to You, O LORD!
2O Lord, hear my voice; let Your ears be attentive to my plea for mercy.
3If You, O LORD, kept track of iniquities, then who, O Lord, could stand?
4But with You there is forgiveness, so that You may be feared.
5I wait for the LORD; my soul does wait, and in His word I put my hope.
6My soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning— more than watchmen wait for the morning.
7O Israel, put your hope in the LORD, for with the LORD is loving devotion, and with Him is redemption in abundance.
8And He will redeem Israel from all iniquity.
