Unto thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heavens.

Behold, as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their masters, and as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; so our eyes wait upon the Lord our God, until that he have mercy upon us.

Have mercy upon us, O Lord, have mercy upon us: for we are exceedingly filled with contempt.

Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at ease, and with the contempt of the proud.

Psalm 123
King James Bible

lighten mine eyes

Psaume 123 (Porto Alegre)

Make a joyful noise unto God, all ye lands:

 Sing forth the honour of his name: make his praise glorious.

 Say unto God, How terrible art thou in thy works! through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies submit themselves unto thee.

 All the earth shall worship thee, and shall sing unto thee; they shall sing to thy name. Selah.

 Come and see the works of God: he is terrible in his doing toward the children of men.

 He turned the sea into dry land: they went through the flood on foot: there did we rejoice in him.

 He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes behold the nations: let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah.

 O bless our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard:

 Which holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved.

 For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.

 Thou broughtest us into the net; thou laidst affliction upon our loins.

 Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water: but thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place.

 I will go into thy house with burnt offerings: I will pay thee my vows,

 Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath spoken, when I was in trouble.

 I will offer unto thee burnt sacrifices of fatlings, with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. Selah.

 Come and hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he hath done for my soul.

 I cried unto him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue.

 If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me:

 But verily God hath heard me; he hath attended to the voice of my prayer.

 Blessed be God, which hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.




Psalm 66
King James Bible

Come and hear

Salmo 66 (Jakarta edit)

Hear my prayer, O Lord, and let my cry come unto thee.

Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O Lord.

Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.

If thou, Lord, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?

But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.

I wait for the Lord, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.

My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning.

Let Israel hope in the Lord: for with the Lord there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.

And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.

Psalm 130
King James Bible

Psaume 130 (Mexicali edit)

Then said he, Unto what is the kingdom of God like? and whereunto shall I resemble it?

It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and cast into his garden; and it grew, and waxed a great tree; and the fowls of the air lodged in the branches of it.

And again he said, Whereunto shall I liken the kingdom of God?

It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.

And he went through the cities and villages, teaching, and journeying toward Jerusalem.

Then said one unto him, Lord, are there few that be saved? And he said unto them,

Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.






Luke 13:18-24
King James Bible

for many

A fountain of gardens, a well of living waters, and streams from Lebanon.

And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

And the Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed.

And out of the ground made the Lord God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads.

The name of the first is Pison: that is it which compasseth the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold;

And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium and the onyx stone.

And the name of the second river is Gihon: the same is it that compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia.

And the name of the third river is Hiddekel: that is it which goeth toward the east of Assyria. And the fourth river is Euphrates.

And the Lord God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.

And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:

But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.

And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.

And out of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the nam
e thereof.

And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.

And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;

And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.

And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.

Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.






Genesis 2:7-24
King James Bible

eastward in Eden

I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord.

Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.

Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact together:

Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord, unto the testimony of Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the Lord.

For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.

Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.

For my brethren and companions' sakes, I will now say, Peace be within thee.

Because of the house of the Lord our God I will seek thy good.

Psalm 122
King James Bible

fate tutto alla gloria di Dio.

Psaume 122 (Dublin edit)

The earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.

 For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.

 Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? or who shall stand in his holy place?

 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.

 He shall receive the blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

 This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. Selah.

 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

 Who is this King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle.

 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

 Who is this King of glory? The Lord of hosts, he is the King of glory. Selah.






Psalm 24
King James Bible

and he shall lift you up.

Psaume 24

Salute All Them That Have The Rule Over You, And All The Saints. They Of Italy Salute You.

After these things Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinth;

And found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla; (because that Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome:) and came unto them.

And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and wrought: for by their occupation they were tentmakers.



Acts 18:1-3
King James Bible

the Italian band

lately come from Italy,

And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
