Psalms
131-134
Psa
131:1 Yahweh, my heart isn't haughty, nor my eyes lofty; nor do I
concern myself with great matters, or things too wonderful for me.
Psa
131:2 Surely I have stilled and quieted my soul, like a weaned child
with his mother, like a weaned child is my soul within me.
Psa
131:3 Israel, hope in Yahweh, from this time forth and forevermore.
Psa
132:1 Yahweh, remember David and all his affliction,
Psa
132:2 how he swore to Yahweh, and vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:
Psa
132:3 "Surely I will not come into the structure of my house,
nor go up into my bed;
Psa
132:4 I will not give sleep to my eyes, or slumber to my eyelids;
Psa
132:5 until I find out a place for Yahweh, a dwelling for the Mighty
One of Jacob."
Psa
132:6 Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah. We found it in the field
of Jaar:
Psa
132:7 "We will go into his dwelling place. We will worship at
his footstool.
Psa
132:8 Arise, Yahweh, into your resting place; you, and the ark of
your strength.
Psa
132:9 Let your priest be clothed with righteousness. Let your saints
shout for joy!"
Psa
132:10 For your servant David's sake, don't turn away the face of
your anointed one.
Psa
132:11 Yahweh has sworn to David in truth. He will not turn from it:
"I will set the fruit of your body on your throne.
Psa
132:12 If your children will keep my covenant, my testimony that I
will teach them, their children also will sit on your throne
forevermore."
Psa
132:13 For Yahweh has chosen Zion. He has desired it for his
habitation.
Psa
132:14 "This is my resting place forever. Here I will live, for
I have desired it.
Psa
132:15 I will abundantly bless her provision. I will satisfy her
poor with bread.
Psa
132:16 Her priests I will also clothe with salvation. Her saints
will shout aloud for joy.
Psa
132:17 There I will make the horn of David to bud. I have ordained a
lamp for my anointed.
Psa
132:18 I will clothe his enemies with shame, but on himself, his
crown will be resplendent."
Psa
133:1 See how good and how pleasant it is for brothers to live
together in unity!
Psa
133:2 It is like the precious oil on the head, that ran down on the
beard, even Aaron's beard; that came down on the edge of his robes;
Psa
133:3 like the dew of Hermon, that comes down on the hills of Zion:
for there Yahweh gives the blessing, even life forevermore.
Psa
134:1 Look! Praise Yahweh, all you servants of Yahweh, who stand by
night in Yahweh's house!
Psa
134:2 Lift up your hands in the sanctuary. Praise Yahweh!
Psa
134:3 May Yahweh bless you from Zion; even he who made heaven and
earth.
