Psalms 129
1
From youth, people have constantly attacked me— let Israel now repeat!—
2
from youth people have constantly attacked me— but they haven't beaten me!
3
They plowed my back like farmers; they made their furrows deep.
4
But the LORD is righteous— God cut me free from the ropes of the wicked!
5
Let everyone who hates Zion be ashamed, thoroughly frustrated.
6
Let them be like grass on a roof that dies before it can be pulled up,
7
which won't fill the reaper's hand or fill the harvester's arms.
8
Let no one who passes by say to them: "May the LORD's blessing be on you! We bless you in the LORD's name!"

Psalms 130
1
I cry out to you from the depths, LORD—
2
my Lord, listen to my voice! Let your ears pay close attention to my request for mercy!
3
If you kept track of sins, LORD— my Lord, who would stand a chance?
4
But forgiveness is with you— that's why you are honored.
5
I hope, LORD. My whole being hopes, and I wait for God's promise.
6
My whole being waits for my Lord— more than the night watch waits for morning; yes, more than the night watch waits for morning!
7
Israel, wait for the LORD! Because faithful love is with the LORD; because great redemption is with our God!
8
He is the one who will redeem Israel from all its sin.

Psalms 131
1
LORD, my heart isn't proud; my eyes aren't conceited. I don't get involved with things too great or wonderful for me.
2
No. But I have calmed and quieted myself like a weaned child on its mother; I'm like the weaned child that is with me.
3
Israel, wait for the LORD— from now until forever from now!
