Psalms Chapter 122
World English Bible

117:1Praise Yahweh, all you nations! Extol him, all you peoples! 117:2For his loving kindness is great toward us. Yahweh’s faithfulness endures forever. Praise Yah!

118:1Give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever. 118:2Let Israel now say that his loving kindness endures forever. 118:3Let the house of Aaron now say that his loving kindness endures forever. 118:4Now let those who fear Yahweh say that his loving kindness endures forever. 118:5Out of my distress, I called on Yah. Yah answered me with freedom. 118:6Yahweh is on my side. I will not be afraid. What can man do to me? 118:7Yahweh is on my side among those who help me. Therefore I will look in triumph at those who hate me. 118:8It is better to take refuge in Yahweh, than to put confidence in man. 118:9It is better to take refuge in Yahweh, than to put confidence in princes. 118:10All the nations surrounded me, but in Yahweh’s name, I cut them off. 118:11They surrounded me, yes, they surrounded me. In Yahweh’s name I indeed cut them off. 118:12They surrounded me like bees. They are quenched like the burning thorns. In Yahweh’s name I cut them off. 118:13You pushed me back hard, to make me fall, but Yahweh helped me. 118:14Yah is my strength and song. He has become my salvation. 118:15The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the righteous. “The right hand of Yahweh does valiantly. 118:16The right hand of Yahweh is exalted! The right hand of Yahweh does valiantly!” 118:17I will not die, but live, and declare Yah’s works. 118:18Yah has punished me severely, but he has not given me over to death. 118:19Open to me the gates of righteousness. I will enter into them. I will give thanks to Yah. 118:20This is the gate of Yahweh; the righteous will enter into it. 118:21I will give thanks to you, for you have answered me, and have become my salvation. 118:22The stone which the builders rejected has become the cornerstone. 118:23This is Yahweh’s doing. It is marvelous in our eyes. 118:24This is the day that Yahweh has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it! 118:25Save us now, we beg you, Yahweh! Yahweh, we beg you, send prosperity now. 118:26Blessed is he who comes in Yahweh’s name! We have blessed you out of Yahweh’s house. 118:27Yahweh is God, and he has given us light. Bind the sacrifice with cords, even to the horns of the altar. 118:28You are my God, and I will give thanks to you. You are my God, I will exalt you. 118:29Oh give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.

119:1Blessed are those whose ways are blameless, who walk according to Yahweh’s law. 119:2Blessed are those who keep his statutes, who seek him with their whole heart. 119:3Yes, they do nothing wrong. They walk in his ways. 119:4You have commanded your precepts, that we should fully obey them. 119:5Oh that my ways were steadfast to obey your statutes! 119:6Then I wouldn’t be disappointed, when I consider all of your commandments. 119:7I will give thanks to you with uprightness of heart, when I learn your righteous judgments. 119:8I will observe your statutes. Don’t utterly forsake me. 119:9How can a young man keep his way pure? By living according to your word. 119:10With my whole heart, I have sought you. Don’t let me wander from your commandments. 119:11I have hidden your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you. 119:12Blessed are you, Yahweh. Teach me your statutes. 119:13With my lips, I have declared all the ordinances of your mouth. 119:14I have rejoiced in the way of your testimonies, as much as in all riches. 119:15I will meditate on your precepts, and consider your ways. 119:16I will delight myself in your statutes. I will not forget your word. 119:17Do good to your servant. I will live and I will obey your word. 119:18Open my eyes, that I may see wondrous things out of your law. 119:19I am a stranger on the earth. Don’t hide your commandments from me. 119:20My soul is consumed with longing for your ordinances at all times. 119:21You have rebuked the proud who are cursed, who wander from your commandments. 119:22Take reproach and contempt away from me, for I have kept your statutes. 119:23Though princes sit and slander me, your servant will meditate on your statutes. 119:24Indeed your statutes are my delight, and my counselors. 119:25My soul is laid low in the dust. Revive me according to your word! 119:26I declared my ways, and you answered me. Teach me your statutes. 119:27Let me understand the teaching of your precepts! Then I will meditate on your wondrous works. 119:28My soul is weary with sorrow: strengthen me according to your word. 119:29Keep me from the way of deceit. Grant me your law graciously! 119:30I have chosen the way of truth. I have set your ordinances before me. 119:31I cling to your statutes, Yahweh. Don’t let me be disappointed. 119:32I run in the path of your commandments, for you have set my heart free. 119:33Teach me, Yahweh, the way of your statutes. I will keep them to the end. 119:34Give me understanding, and I will keep your law. Yes, I will obey it with my whole heart. 119:35Direct me in the path of your commandments, for I delight in them. 119:36Turn my heart toward your statutes, not toward selfish gain. 119:37Turn my eyes away from looking at worthless things. Revive me in your ways. 119:38Fulfill your promise to your servant, that you may be feared. 119:39Take away my disgrace that I dread, for your ordinances are good. 119:40Behold, I long for your precepts! Revive me in your righteousness. 119:41Let your loving kindness also come to me, Yahweh, your salvation, according to your word. 119:42So I will have an answer for him who reproaches me, for I trust in your word. 119:43Don’t snatch the word of truth out of my mouth, for I put my hope in your ordinances. 119:44So I will obey your law continually, forever and ever. 119:45I will walk in liberty, for I have sought your precepts. 119:46I will also speak of your statutes before kings, and will not be disappointed. 119:47I will delight myself in your commandments, because I love them. 119:48I reach out my hands for your commandments, which I love. I will meditate on your statutes. 119:49Remember your word to your servant, because you gave me hope. 119:50This is my comfort in my affliction, for your word has revived me. 119:51The arrogant mock me excessively, but I don’t swerve from your law. 119:52I remember your ordinances of old, Yahweh, and have comforted myself. 119:53Indignation has taken hold on me, because of the wicked who forsake your law. 119:54Your statutes have been my songs, in the house where I live. 119:55I have remembered your name, Yahweh, in the night, and I obey your law. 119:56This is my way, that I keep your precepts. 119:57Yahweh is my portion. I promised to obey your words. 119:58I sought your favor with my whole heart. Be merciful to me according to your word. 119:59I considered my ways, and turned my steps to your statutes. 119:60I will hurry, and not delay, to obey your commandments. 119:61The ropes of the wicked bind me, but I won’t forget your law. 119:62At midnight I will rise to give thanks to you, because of your righteous ordinances. 119:63I am a friend of all those who fear you, of those who observe your precepts. 119:64The earth is full of your loving kindness, Yahweh. Teach me your statutes. 119:65Do good to your servant, according to your word, Yahweh. 119:66Teach me good judgment and knowledge, for I believe in your commandments. 119:67Before I was afflicted, I went astray; but now I observe your word. 119:68You are good, and do good. Teach me your statutes. 119:69The proud have smeared a lie upon me. With my whole heart, I will keep your precepts. 119:70Their heart is as callous as the fat, but I delight in your law. 119:71It is good for me that I have been afflicted, that I may learn your statutes. 119:72The law of your mouth is better to me than thousands of pieces of gold and silver. 119:73Your hands have made me and formed me. Give me understanding, that I may learn your commandments. 119:74Those who fear you will see me and be glad, because I have put my hope in your word. 119:75Yahweh, I know that your judgments are righteous, that in faithfulness you have afflicted me. 119:76Please let your loving kindness be for my comfort, according to your word to your servant. 119:77Let your tender mercies come to me, that I may live; for your law is my delight. 119:78Let the proud be disappointed, for they have overthrown me wrongfully. I will meditate on your precepts. 119:79Let those who fear you turn to me. They will know your statutes. 119:80Let my heart be blameless toward your decrees, that I may not be disappointed. 119:81My soul faints for your salvation. I hope in your word. 119:82My eyes fail for your word. I say, “When will you comfort me?” 119:83For I have become like a wineskin in the smoke. I don’t forget your statutes. 119:84How many are the days of your servant? When will you execute judgment on those who persecute me? 119:85The proud have dug pits for me, contrary to your law. 119:86All of your commandments are faithful. They persecute me wrongfully. Help me! 119:87They had almost wiped me from the earth, but I didn’t forsake your precepts. 119:88Preserve my life according to your loving kindness, so I will obey the statutes of your mouth. 119:89Yahweh, your word is settled in heaven forever. 119:90Your faithfulness is to all generations. You have established the earth, and it remains. 119:91Your laws remain to this day, for all things serve you. 119:92Unless your law had been my delight, I would have perished in my affliction. 119:93I will never forget your precepts, for with them, you have revived me. 119:94I am yours. Save me, for I have sought your precepts. 119:95The wicked have waited for me, to destroy me. I will consider your statutes. 119:96I have seen a limit to all perfection, but your commands are boundless. 119:97How I love your law! It is my meditation all day. 119:98Your commandments make me wiser than my enemies, for your commandments are always with me. 119:99I have more understanding than all my teachers, for your testimonies are my meditation. 119:100I understand more than the aged, because I have kept your precepts. 119:101I have kept my feet from every evil way, that I might observe your word. 119:102I have not turned away from your ordinances, for you have taught me. 119:103How sweet are your promises to my taste, more than honey to my mouth! 119:104Through your precepts, I get understanding; therefore I hate every false way. 119:105Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light for my path. 119:106I have sworn, and have confirmed it, that I will obey your righteous ordinances. 119:107I am afflicted very much. Revive me, Yahweh, according to your word. 119:108Accept, I beg you, the willing offerings of my mouth. Yahweh, teach me your ordinances. 119:109My soul is continually in my hand, yet I won’t forget your law. 119:110The wicked have laid a snare for me, yet I haven’t gone astray from your precepts. 119:111I have taken your testimonies as a heritage forever, for they are the joy of my heart. 119:112I have set my heart to perform your statutes forever, even to the end. 119:113I hate double-minded men, but I love your law. 119:114You are my hiding place and my shield. I hope in your word. 119:115Depart from me, you evildoers, that I may keep the commandments of my God. 119:116Uphold me according to your word, that I may live. Let me not be ashamed of my hope. 119:117Hold me up, and I will be safe, and will have respect for your statutes continually. 119:118You reject all those who stray from your statutes, for their deceit is in vain. 119:119You put away all the wicked of the earth like dross. Therefore I love your testimonies. 119:120My flesh trembles for fear of you. I am afraid of your judgments. 119:121I have done what is just and righteous. Don’t leave me to my oppressors. 119:122Ensure your servant’s well-being. Don’t let the proud oppress me. 119:123My eyes fail looking for your salvation, for your righteous word. 119:124Deal with your servant according to your loving kindness. Teach me your statutes. 119:125I am your servant. Give me understanding, that I may know your testimonies. 119:126It is time to act, Yahweh, for they break your law. 119:127Therefore I love your commandments more than gold, yes, more than pure gold. 119:128Therefore I consider all of your precepts to be right. I hate every false way. 119:129Your testimonies are wonderful, therefore my soul keeps them. 119:130The entrance of your words gives light. It gives understanding to the simple. 119:131I opened my mouth wide and panted, for I longed for your commandments. 119:132Turn to me, and have mercy on me, as you always do to those who love your name. 119:133Establish my footsteps in your word. Don’t let any iniquity have dominion over me. 119:134Redeem me from the oppression of man, so I will observe your precepts. 119:135Make your face shine on your servant. Teach me your statutes. 119:136Streams of tears run down my eyes, because they don’t observe your law. 119:137You are righteous, Yahweh. Your judgments are upright. 119:138You have commanded your statutes in righteousness. They are fully trustworthy. 119:139My zeal wears me out, because my enemies ignore your words. 119:140Your promises have been thoroughly tested, and your servant loves them. 119:141I am small and despised. I don’t forget your precepts. 119:142Your righteousness is an everlasting righteousness. Your law is truth. 119:143Trouble and anguish have taken hold of me. Your commandments are my delight. 119:144Your testimonies are righteous forever. Give me understanding, that I may live. 119:145I have called with my whole heart. Answer me, Yahweh! I will keep your statutes. 119:146I have called to you. Save me! I will obey your statutes. 119:147I rise before dawn and cry for help. I put my hope in your words. 119:148My eyes stay open through the night watches, that I might meditate on your word. 119:149Hear my voice according to your loving kindness. Revive me, Yahweh, according to your ordinances. 119:150They draw near who follow after wickedness. They are far from your law. 119:151You are near, Yahweh. All your commandments are truth. 119:152Of old I have known from your testimonies, that you have founded them forever. 119:153Consider my affliction, and deliver me, for I don’t forget your law. 119:154Plead my cause, and redeem me! Revive me according to your promise. 119:155Salvation is far from the wicked, for they don’t seek your statutes. 119:156Great are your tender mercies, Yahweh. Revive me according to your ordinances. 119:157Many are my persecutors and my adversaries. I haven’t swerved from your testimonies. 119:158I look at the faithless with loathing, because they don’t observe your word. 119:159Consider how I love your precepts. Revive me, Yahweh, according to your loving kindness. 119:160All of your words are truth. Every one of your righteous ordinances endures forever. 119:161Princes have persecuted me without a cause, but my heart stands in awe of your words. 119:162I rejoice at your word, as one who finds great plunder. 119:163I hate and abhor falsehood. I love your law. 119:164Seven times a day, I praise you, because of your righteous ordinances. 119:165Those who love your law have great peace. Nothing causes them to stumble. 119:166I have hoped for your salvation, Yahweh. I have done your commandments. 119:167My soul has observed your testimonies. I love them exceedingly. 119:168I have obeyed your precepts and your testimonies, for all my ways are before you. 119:169Let my cry come before you, Yahweh. Give me understanding according to your word. 119:170Let my supplication come before you. Deliver me according to your word. 119:171Let my lips utter praise, for you teach me your statutes. 119:172Let my tongue sing of your word, for all your commandments are righteousness. 119:173Let your hand be ready to help me, for I have chosen your precepts. 119:174I have longed for your salvation, Yahweh. Your law is my delight. 119:175Let my soul live, that I may praise you. Let your ordinances help me. 119:176I have gone astray like a lost sheep. Seek your servant, for I don’t forget your commandments.

120:1In my distress, I cried to Yahweh. He answered me. 120:2Deliver my soul, Yahweh, from lying lips, from a deceitful tongue. 120:3What will be given to you, and what will be done more to you, you deceitful tongue? 120:4Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper. 120:5Woe is me, that I live in Meshech, that I dwell among the tents of Kedar! 120:6My soul has had her dwelling too long with him who hates peace. 120:7I am for peace, but when I speak, they are for war.

121:1I will lift up my eyes to the hills. Where does my help come from? 121:2My help comes from Yahweh, who made heaven and earth. 121:3He will not allow your foot to be moved. He who keeps you will not slumber. 121:4Behold, he who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. 121:5Yahweh is your keeper. Yahweh is your shade on your right hand. 121:6The sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. 121:7Yahweh will keep you from all evil. He will keep your soul. 121:8Yahweh will keep your going out and your coming in, from this time forward, and forever more.

122:1I was glad when they said to me, “Let’s go to Yahweh’s house!” 122:2Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem; 122:3Jerusalem, that is built as a city that is compact together; 122:4where the tribes go up, even Yah’s tribes, according to an ordinance for Israel, to give thanks to Yahweh’s name. 122:5For there are set thrones for judgment, the thrones of David’s house. 122:6Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Those who love you will prosper. 122:7Peace be within your walls, and prosperity within your palaces. 122:8For my brothers’ and companions’ sakes, I will now say, “Peace be within you.” 122:9For the sake of the house of Yahweh our God, I will seek your good.

123:1To you I do lift up my eyes, you who sit in the heavens. 123:2Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress; so our eyes look to Yahweh, our God, until he has mercy on us. 123:3Have mercy on us, Yahweh, have mercy on us, for we have endured much contempt. 123:4Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scoffing of those who are at ease, with the contempt of the proud.

124:1If it had not been Yahweh who was on our side, let Israel now say, 124:2if it had not been Yahweh who was on our side, when men rose up against us; 124:3then they would have swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us; 124:4then the waters would have overwhelmed us, the stream would have gone over our soul; 124:5then the proud waters would have gone over our soul. 124:6Blessed be Yahweh, who has not given us as a prey to their teeth. 124:7Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the fowler’s snare. The snare is broken, and we have escaped. 124:8Our help is in Yahweh’s name, who made heaven and earth.

125:1Those who trust in Yahweh are as Mount Zion, which can’t be moved, but remains forever. 125:2As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so Yahweh surrounds his people from this time forward and forever more. 125:3For the scepter of wickedness won’t remain over the allotment of the righteous; so that the righteous won’t use their hands to do evil. 125:4Do good, Yahweh, to those who are good, to those who are upright in their hearts. 125:5But as for those who turn away to their crooked ways, Yahweh will lead them away with the workers of iniquity. Peace be on Israel.

126:1When Yahweh brought back those who returned to Zion, we were like those who dream. 126:2Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing. Then they said among the nations, “Yahweh has done great things for them.” 126:3Yahweh has done great things for us, and we are glad. 126:4Restore our fortunes again, Yahweh, like the streams in the Negev. 126:5Those who sow in tears will reap in joy. 126:6He who goes out weeping, carrying seed for sowing, will certainly come again with joy, carrying his sheaves.

127:1Unless Yahweh builds the house, they labor in vain who build it. Unless Yahweh watches over the city, the watchman guards it in vain. 127:2It is vain for you to rise up early, to stay up late, eating the bread of toil; for he gives sleep to his loved ones. 127:3Behold, children are a heritage of Yahweh. The fruit of the womb is his reward. 127:4As arrows in the hand of a mighty man, so are the children of youth. 127:5Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them. They won’t be disappointed when they speak with their enemies in the gate.

128:1Blessed is everyone who fears Yahweh, who walks in his ways. 128:2For you will eat the labor of your hands. You will be happy, and it will be well with you. 128:3Your wife will be as a fruitful vine, in the innermost parts of your house; your children like olive plants, around your table. 128:4Behold, thus is the man blessed who fears Yahweh. 128:5May Yahweh bless you out of Zion, and may you see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life. 128:6Yes, may you see your children’s children. Peace be upon Israel.

129:1Many times they have afflicted me from my youth up. Let Israel now say, 129:2many times they have afflicted me from my youth up, yet they have not prevailed against me. 129:3The plowers plowed on my back. They made their furrows long. 129:4Yahweh is righteous. He has cut apart the cords of the wicked. 129:5Let them be disappointed and turned backward, all those who hate Zion. 129:6Let them be as the grass on the housetops, which withers before it grows up; 129:7with which the reaper doesn’t fill his hand, nor he who binds sheaves, his bosom. 129:8Neither do those who go by say, “The blessing of Yahweh be on you. We bless you in Yahweh’s name.”

130:1Out of the depths I have cried to you, Yahweh. 130:2Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my petitions. 130:3If you, Yah, kept a record of sins, Lord, who could stand? 130:4But there is forgiveness with you, therefore you are feared. 130:5I wait for Yahweh. My soul waits. I hope in his word. 130:6My soul longs for the Lord more than watchmen long for the morning; more than watchmen for the morning. 130:7Israel, hope in Yahweh, for with Yahweh there is loving kindness. With him is abundant redemption. 130:8He will redeem Israel from all their sins.

131:1Yahweh, my heart isn’t haughty, nor my eyes lofty; nor do I concern myself with great matters, or things too wonderful for me. 131:2Surely I have stilled and quieted my soul, like a weaned child with his mother, like a weaned child is my soul within me. 131:3Israel, hope in Yahweh, from this time forward and forever more.

132:1Yahweh, remember David and all his affliction, 132:2how he swore to Yahweh, and vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob: 132:3“Surely I will not come into the structure of my house, nor go up into my bed; 132:4I will not give sleep to my eyes, or slumber to my eyelids; 132:5until I find out a place for Yahweh, a dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob.” 132:6Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah. We found it in the field of Jaar: 132:7“We will go into his dwelling place. We will worship at his footstool. 132:8Arise, Yahweh, into your resting place; you, and the ark of your strength. 132:9Let your priests be clothed with righteousness. Let your saints shout for joy!” 132:10For your servant David’s sake, don’t turn away the face of your anointed one. 132:11Yahweh has sworn to David in truth. He will not turn from it: “I will set the fruit of your body on your throne. 132:12If your children will keep my covenant, my testimony that I will teach them, their children also will sit on your throne forever more.” 132:13For Yahweh has chosen Zion. He has desired it for his habitation. 132:14“This is my resting place forever. Here I will live, for I have desired it. 132:15I will abundantly bless her provision. I will satisfy her poor with bread. 132:16Her priests I will also clothe with salvation. Her saints will shout aloud for joy. 132:17There I will make the horn of David to bud. I have ordained a lamp for my anointed. 132:18I will clothe his enemies with shame, but on himself, his crown will be resplendent.”

133:1See how good and how pleasant it is for brothers to live together in unity! 133:2It 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; 133:3like the dew of Hermon, that comes down on the hills of Zion: for there Yahweh gives the blessing, even life forever more.

134:1Look! Praise Yahweh, all you servants of Yahweh, who stand by night in Yahweh’s house! 134:2Lift up your hands in the sanctuary. Praise Yahweh! 134:3May Yahweh bless you from Zion; even he who made heaven and earth.

135:1Praise Yah! Praise Yahweh’s name! Praise him, you servants of Yahweh, 135:2you who stand in Yahweh’s house, in the courts of our God’s house. 135:3Praise Yah, for Yahweh is good. Sing praises to his name, for that is pleasant. 135:4For Yah has chosen Jacob for himself; Israel for his own possession. 135:5For I know that Yahweh is great, that our Lord is above all gods. 135:6Whatever Yahweh pleased, that he has done, in heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps; 135:7who causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth; who makes lightnings with the rain; who brings the wind out of his treasuries; 135:8Who struck the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and animal; 135:9Who sent signs and wonders into the middle of you, Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his servants; 135:10who struck many nations, and killed mighty kings, 135:11Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan, 135:12and gave their land for a heritage, a heritage to Israel, his people. 135:13Your name, Yahweh, endures forever; your renown, Yahweh, throughout all generations. 135:14For Yahweh will judge his people, and have compassion on his servants. 135:15The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands. 135:16They have mouths, but they can’t speak. They have eyes, but they can’t see. 135:17They have ears, but they can’t hear; neither is there any breath in their mouths. 135:18Those who make them will be like them; yes, everyone who trusts in them. 135:19House of Israel, praise Yahweh! House of Aaron, praise Yahweh! 135:20House of Levi, praise Yahweh! You who fear Yahweh, praise Yahweh! 135:21Blessed be Yahweh from Zion, Who dwells at Jerusalem. Praise Yah!
