Psalm 113 ESV

“1 Praise the Lord! Praise, O servants of the Lord,     praise the name of the Lord!
2 Blessed be the name of the Lord     from this time forth and forevermore!
3 From the rising of the sun to its setting,     the name of the Lord is to be praised!
4 The Lord is high above all nations,     and his glory above the heavens!
5 Who is like the Lord our God,     who is seated on high,
6 who looks far down     on the heavens and the earth?
7 He raises the poor from the dust     and lifts the needy from the ash heap,
8 to make them sit with princes,     with the princes of his people.
9 He gives the barren woman a home,     making her the joyous mother of children. Praise the Lord!”

Psalm 120 ESV

Deliver Me, O Lord

1 In my distress I called to the Lord,     and he answered me.
2 Deliver me, O Lord,     from lying lips,     from a deceitful tongue.
3 What shall be given to you,     and what more shall be done to you,     you deceitful tongue?
4 A warrior's sharp arrows,     with glowing coals of the broom tree!
5 Woe to me, that I sojourn in Meshech,     that I dwell among the tents of Kedar!
6 Too long have I had my dwelling     among those who hate peace.
7 I am for peace,     but when I speak, they are for war!

My Help Comes from the Lord

Psalm 122 ESV

Let Us Go to the House of the Lord
A Song of Ascents. Of David.

1 I was glad when they said to me,     “Let us go to the house of the Lord!”
2 Our feet have been standing     within your gates, O Jerusalem!
3 Jerusalem—built as a city     that is bound firmly together,
4 to which the tribes go up,     the tribes of the Lord, as was decreed for Israel,     to give thanks to the name of the Lord.
5 There thrones for judgment were set,     the thrones of the house of David.
6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!     “May they be secure who love you!
7 Peace be within your walls     and security within your towers!”
8 For my brothers and companions' sake     I will say, “Peace be within you!”
9 For the sake of the house of the Lord our God,     I will seek your good.

Our Eyes Look to the Lord Our God
A song of ascents.

1 I lift up my eyes to you,     to you who sit enthroned in heaven.
2 As the eyes of slaves look to the hand of their master,     as the eyes of a female slave look to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes look to the Lord our God,     till he shows us his mercy.
3 Have mercy on us, Lord, have mercy on us,     for we have endured no end of contempt.
4 We have endured no end     of ridicule from the arrogant,     of contempt from the proud.

Psalm 124 ESV

Our Help Is in the Name of the Lord

A Song of Ascents. Of David.

1 If it had not been the Lord who was on our side—     let Israel now say—
2 if it had not been the Lord who was on our side     when people rose up against us,
3 then they would have swallowed us up alive,     when their anger was kindled against us;
4 then the flood would have swept us away,     the torrent would have gone over us;
5 then over us would have gone     the raging waters.
6 Blessed be the Lord,     who has not given us     as prey to their teeth!
7 We have escaped like a bird     from the snare of the fowlers; the snare is broken,     and we have escaped!
8 Our help is in the name of the Lord,     who made heaven and earth.

The Lord Surrounds His People

A Song of Ascents.

1 Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion,     which cannot be moved, but abides forever.
2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem,     so the Lord surrounds his people,     from this time forth and forevermore.
3 For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest     on the land allotted to the righteous, lest the righteous stretch out     their hands to do wrong.
4 Do good, O Lord, to those who are good,     and to those who are upright in their hearts!
5 But those who turn aside to their crooked ways     the Lord will lead away with evildoers!     Peace be upon Israel!

Restore Our Fortunes, O Lord

A Song of Ascents.

1 When the Lord restored the fortunes of Zion,     we were like those who dream.
2 Then our mouth was filled with laughter,     and our tongue with shouts of joy; then they said among the nations,     “The Lord has done great things for them.”
3 The Lord has done great things for us;     we are glad.
4 Restore our fortunes, O Lord,     like streams in the Negeb!
5 Those who sow in tears     shall reap with shouts of joy!
6 He who goes out weeping,     bearing the seed for sowing, shall come home with shouts of joy,     bringing his sheaves with him.

Psalm 127 ESV

Unless the Lord Builds the House

A Song of Ascents. Of Solomon.
1 Unless the Lord builds the house,     those who build it labor in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city,     the watchman stays awake in vain.
2 It is in vain that you rise up early     and go late to rest, eating the bread of anxious toil;     for he gives to his beloved sleep.
3 Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord,     the fruit of the womb a reward.
4 Like arrows in the hand of a warrior     are the children[a] of one's youth.
5 Blessed is the man     who fills his quiver with them! He shall not be put to shame     when he speaks with his enemies in the gate.

A Song of Ascents.

1 Blessed is everyone who fears the Lord,     who walks in his ways!
2 You shall eat the fruit of the labor of your hands;     you shall be blessed, and it shall be well with you.
3 Your wife will be like a fruitful vine     within your house; your children will be like olive shoots     around your table.
4 Behold, thus shall the man be blessed     who fears the Lord.
5 The Lord bless you from Zion!     May you see the prosperity of Jerusalem     all the days of your life!
6 May you see your children's children!     Peace be upon Israel!
