Psalms 131-135
Psalms 131
Psa 131:1 A Song of degrees of David. Lord, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty: neither do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too high for me.
Psa 131:2 Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his mother: my soul is even as a weaned child.
Psa 131:3 Let Israel hope in the Lord from henceforth and for ever.
Psalms 132
Psa 132:1 A Song of degrees. Lord, remember David, and all his afflictions:
Psa 132:2 How he sware unto the Lord, and vowed unto the mighty God of Jacob;
Psa 132:3 Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house, nor go up into my bed;
Psa 132:4 I will not give sleep to mine eyes, or slumber to mine eyelids,
Psa 132:5 Until I find out a place for the Lord, an habitation for the mighty God of Jacob.
Psa 132:6 Lo, we heard of it at Eph´-ratah: we found it in the fields of the wood.
Psa 132:7 We will go into His tabernacles: we will worship at His footstool.
Psa 132:8 Arise, O Lord, into Thy rest; Thou, and the ark of Thy strength.
Psa 132:9 Let Thy priests be clothed with righteousness; and let Thy saints shout for joy.
Psa 132:10 For Thy servant David’s sake turn not away the face of Thine anointed.
Psa 132:11 The Lord hath sworn in truth unto David; He will not turn from it; Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne.
Psa 132:12 If thy children will keep My covenant and My testimony that I shall teach them, their children shall also sit upon thy throne for evermore.
Psa 132:13 For the Lord hath chosen Zion; He hath desired it for His habitation.
Psa 132:14 This is My rest for ever: here will I dwell; for I have desired it.
Psa 132:15 I will abundantly bless her provision: I will satisfy her poor with bread.
Psa 132:16 I will also clothe her priests with salvation: and her saints shall shout aloud for joy.
Psa 132:17 There will I make the horn of David to bud: I have ordained a lamp for Mine anointed.
Psa 132:18 His enemies will I clothe with shame: but upon himself shall his crown flourish.
Psalms 133
Psa 133:1 A Song of degrees of David. Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!
Psa 133:2 It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron’s beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;
Psa 133:3 As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the Lord commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.
Psalms 134
Psa 134:1 A Song of degrees. Behold, bless ye the Lord, all ye servants of the Lord, which by night stand in the house of the Lord.
Psa 134:2 Lift up your hands in the sanctuary, and bless the Lord.
Psa 134:3 The Lord that made heaven and earth bless thee out of Zion.
Psalms 135
Psa 135:1 Praise ye the Lord. Praise ye the name of the Lord; praise Him, O ye servants of the Lord.
Psa 135:2 Ye that stand in the house of the Lord, in the courts of the house of our God,
Psa 135:3 Praise the Lord; for the Lord is good: sing praises unto His name; for it is pleasant.
Psa 135:4 For the Lord hath chosen Jacob unto Himself, and Israel for His peculiar treasure.
Psa 135:5 For I know that the Lord is great, and that our Lord is above all gods.
Psa 135:6 Whatsoever the Lord pleased, that did He in heaven, and in earth, in the seas, and all deep places.
Psa 135:7 He causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; He maketh lightnings for the rain; He bringeth the wind out of His treasuries.
Psa 135:8 Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast.
Psa 135:9 Who sent tokens and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants.
Psa 135:10 Who smote great nations, and slew mighty kings;
Psa 135:11 Si´-hon king of the Am´-or-ites, and Og king of Ba´-shan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan:
Psa 135:12 And gave their land for an heritage, an heritage unto Israel His people.
Psa 135:13 Thy name, O Lord, endureth for ever; and Thy memorial, O Lord, throughout all generations.
Psa 135:14 For the Lord will judge His people, and He will repent Himself concerning His servants.
Psa 135:15 The idols of the heathen are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.
Psa 135:16 They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not;
Psa 135:17 They have ears, but they hear not; neither is there any breath in their mouths.
Psa 135:18 They that make them are like unto them: so is every one that trusteth in them.
Psa 135:19 Bless the Lord, O house of Israel: bless the Lord, O house of Aaron:
Psa 135:20 Bless the Lord, O house of Levi: ye that fear the Lord, bless the Lord.
Psa 135:21 Blessed be the Lord out of Zion, which dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise ye the Lord.
