PSALM 132

 A song of ascents.

1 

Lord, remember David
    and all his self-denial.

2 

He swore an oath to the Lord,
    he made a vow to the Mighty One of Jacob:

3 

‘I will not enter my house
    or go to my bed,

4 

I will allow no sleep to my eyes
    or slumber to my eyelids,

5 

till I find a place for the Lord,
    a dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob.’

6 

We heard it in Ephrathah,
    we came upon it in the fields of Jaar:

7 

‘Let us go to his dwelling-place,
    let us worship at his footstool, saying,

8 

“Arise, Lord, and come to your resting place,
    you and the ark of your might.

9 

May your priests be clothed with your righteousness;
    may your faithful people sing for joy.”’

10 

For the sake of your servant David,
    do not reject your anointed one.

11 

The Lord swore an oath to David,
    a sure oath he will not revoke:
‘One of your own descendants
    I will place on your throne.

12 

If your sons keep my covenant
    and the statutes I teach them,
then their sons shall sit
    on your throne for ever and ever.’

13 

For the Lord has chosen Zion,
    he has desired it for his dwelling, saying,

14 

‘This is my resting place for ever and ever;
    here I will sit enthroned, for I have desired it.

15 

I will bless her with abundant provisions;
    her poor I will satisfy with food.

16 

I will clothe her priests with salvation,
    and her faithful people shall ever sing for joy.

17 

‘Here I will make a horn grow for David
    and set up a lamp for my anointed one.

18 

I will clothe his enemies with shame,
    but his head shall be adorned with a radiant crown.’

Psalm 131

A song of ascents. Of David.

1 

My heart is not proud, Lord,
    my eyes are not haughty;
I do not concern myself with great matters
    or things too wonderful for me.

2 

But I have calmed and quietened myself,
    I am like a weaned child with its mother;
    like a weaned child I am content.

3 

Israel, put your hope in the Lord
    both now and for evermore.

PSALM 130

A song of ascents. 

1 

Out of the depths I cry to you, Lord;

2 

    Lord, hear my voice.
Let your ears be attentive
    to my cry for mercy.

3 

If you, Lord, kept a record of sins,
    Lord, who could stand?

4 

But with you there is forgiveness,
    so that we can, with reverence, serve you.

5 

I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits,
    and in his word I put my hope.

6 

I wait for the Lord
    more than watchmen wait for the morning,
    more than watchmen wait for the morning.

7 

Israel, put your hope in the Lord,
    for with the Lord is unfailing love
    and with him is full redemption.

8 

He himself will redeem Israel
    from all their sins.
