New Living Translation (NLT)
Psalm 129
8 And may those who pass by refuse to give them this blessing: “The LORD bless you; we bless you in the LORD’s name.”
Psalm 130
1 From the depths of despair, O LORD, I call for your help.
2 Hear my cry, O Lord. Pay attention to my prayer.
3 LORD, if you kept a record of our sins, who, O Lord, could ever survive?
4 But you offer forgiveness, that we might learn to fear you.
5 I am counting on the LORD; yes, I am counting on him. I have put my hope in his word.
6 I long for the Lord more than sentries long for the dawn, yes, more than sentries long for the dawn.
7 O Israel, hope in the LORD; for with the LORD there is unfailing love. His redemption overflows.
8 He himself will redeem Israel from every kind of sin.
Psalm 131
1 LORD, my heart is not proud; my eyes are not haughty. I don’t concern myself with matters too great or too awesome for me to grasp.
2 Instead, I have calmed and quieted myself, like a weaned child who no longer cries for its mother’s milk. Yes, like a weaned child is my soul within me.
