131 Jehovah, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty;
Neither do I ^[a]exercise myself in great matters,
Or in things too wonderful for me.
² Surely I have stilled and quieted my soul;
Like a weaned child with his mother,
Like a weaned child is my soul within me.
³ O Israel, hope in Jehovah
From this time forth and for evermore.

132 Jehovah, remember for David
All his affliction;
² How he sware unto Jehovah,
And vowed unto the Mighty One of Jacob:
³ Surely I will not come into the ^[b]tabernacle of my house,
Nor go up into ^[c]my bed;
⁴ I will not give sleep to mine eyes,
Or slumber to mine eyelids;
⁵ Until I find out a place for Jehovah,
^[d]A tabernacle for the Mighty One of Jacob.
⁶ Lo, we heard of it in ^[e]Ephrathah:
We found it in the field of ^[f]the wood.
⁷ We will go into his tabernacles;
We will worship at his footstool.
⁸ Arise, O Jehovah, into thy resting-place;
Thou, and the ark of thy strength.
⁹ Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness;
And let thy saints shout for joy.
¹⁰ For thy servant David’s sake
Turn not away the face of thine anointed.
¹¹ Jehovah hath sworn unto David in truth;
He will not turn from it:
Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne.
¹² If thy children will keep my covenant
And my testimony that I shall teach them,
Their children also shall sit upon thy throne for evermore.
¹³ For Jehovah hath chosen Zion;
He hath desired it for his habitation.
¹⁴ This is my resting-place for ever:
Here will I dwell; for I have desired it.
¹⁵ I will ^[g]abundantly bless her provision:
I will satisfy her poor with bread.
¹⁶ Her priests also will I clothe with salvation;
And her saints shall shout aloud for joy.
¹⁷ There will I make ^[h]the horn of David to bud:
I have ^[i]ordained a lamp for mine anointed.
¹⁸ His enemies will I clothe with shame;
But upon himself shall his crown flourish.

133 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is
For brethren to dwell together in unity!
² It is like the precious oil upon the head,
That ran down upon the beard,
Even Aaron’s beard;
That came down upon the ^[j]skirt of his garments;
³ Like the dew of Hermon,
That cometh down upon the mountains of Zion:
For there Jehovah commanded the blessing,
Even life for evermore.

134 Behold, bless ye Jehovah, all ye servants of Jehovah,
That by night stand in the house of Jehovah.
² Lift up your hands ^[k]to the sanctuary,
And bless ye Jehovah.
³ Jehovah bless thee out of Zion;
Even he that made heaven and earth.

^[l]135 Praise ye Jehovah.
Praise ye the name of Jehovah;
Praise him, O ye servants of Jehovah,
² Ye that stand in the house of Jehovah,
In the courts of the house of our God.
³ Praise ye Jehovah; for Jehovah is good:
Sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant.
⁴ For ^[m]Jehovah hath chosen Jacob unto himself,
And Israel for his own possession.
⁵ For I know that Jehovah is great,
And that our Lord is above all gods.
⁶ Whatsoever Jehovah pleased, that hath he done,
In heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps;
⁷ Who causeth the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth;
Who maketh lightnings for the rain;
Who bringeth forth the wind out of his treasuries;
⁸ Who smote the first-born of Egypt,
Both of man and beast;
⁹ Who sent signs and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt,
Upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants;
¹⁰ Who smote many ^[n]nations,
And slew mighty kings,
¹¹ Sihon king of the Amorites,
And Og king of Bashan,
And all the kingdoms of Canaan,
¹² And gave their land for a heritage,
A heritage unto Israel his people.
¹³ Thy name, O Jehovah, endureth for ever;
Thy memorial name, O Jehovah, throughout all generations.
¹⁴ For Jehovah will judge his people,
And repent himself concerning his servants.

136 Oh give thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever.
² Oh give thanks unto the God of gods;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever.
³ Oh give thanks unto the Lord of lords;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
⁴ To him who alone doeth great wonders;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
⁵ To him that by understanding made the heavens;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
⁶ To him that spread forth the earth above the waters;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
⁷ To him that made great lights;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
⁸ The sun to rule by day;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
⁹ The moon and stars to rule by night;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
¹⁰ To him that smote Egypt in their first-born;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
¹¹ And brought out Israel from among them;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
¹² With a strong hand, and with an outstretched arm;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
¹³ To him that divided the Red Sea in sunder;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
¹⁴ And made Israel to pass through the midst of it;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
¹⁵ But ^[p]overthrew Pharaoh and his host in the Red Sea;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
¹⁶ To him that led his people through the wilderness;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
¹⁷ To him that smote great kings;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
¹⁸ And slew famous kings;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
¹⁹ Sihon king of the Amorites;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
²⁰ And Og king of Bashan;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
²¹ And gave their land for a heritage;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
²² Even a heritage unto Israel his servant;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
²³ Who remembered us in our low estate;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
²⁴ And hath delivered us from our adversaries;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
²⁵ Who giveth food to all flesh;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever.
²⁶ Oh give thanks unto the God of heaven;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever.
