New King James Version (NKJV)
Psalm 122
9 Because of the house of the Lord our God I will seek your good.
Psalm 123
1 A Song of Ascents. Unto You I lift up my eyes, O You who dwell in the heavens.
2 Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their masters, As the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress, So our eyes look to the Lord our God, Until He has mercy on us.
3 Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us! For we are exceedingly filled with contempt.
4 Our soul is exceedingly filled With the scorn of those who are at ease, With the contempt of the proud.
Psalm 124
1 A Song of Ascents. Of David. "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 men rose up against us,
3 Then they would have swallowed us alive, When their wrath was kindled against us;
4 Then the waters would have overwhelmed us, The stream would have gone over our soul;
5 Then the swollen waters Would have gone over our soul."
6 Blessed be the Lord, Who has not given us as prey to their teeth.
