Psalms 130:1

Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding.

I sought Yahweh, and he answered me, and delivered me from all my fears.

A man’s heart plans his course, but Yahweh directs his steps.

So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase.

But he said, “On the contrary, blessed are those who hear the word of God, and keep it.”

Stretch out your hand from above, rescue me, and deliver me out of great waters, out of the hands of foreigners,

For in the day of trouble, he will keep me secretly in his pavilion. In the secret place of his tabernacle, he will hide me. He will lift me up on a rock.

Blessed are those whose ways are blameless, who walk according to Yahweh’s law.

Many nations will go and say, “Come! Let’s go up to the mountain of Yahweh, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths.” For the law will go out of Zion, and Yahweh’s word from Jerusalem;

Also Jeshua, Bani, Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodiah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, and the Levites, caused the people to understand the law; and the people stayed in their place.

Praise Yah! Blessed is the man who fears Yahweh, who delights greatly in his commandments.

Behold, he who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.

Many peoples shall go and say, “Come, let’s go up to the mountain of Yahweh, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths.” For the law shall go out of Zion, and Yahweh’s word from Jerusalem.

“Blessed is the man who trusts in Yahweh, and whose confidence is in Yahweh.

“Also, Judah, there is a harvest appointed for you, when I restore the fortunes of my people.

He said, “I called because of my affliction to Yahweh. He answered me. Out of the belly of Sheol I cried. You heard my voice.

For he has not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted, Neither has he hidden his face from him; but when he cried to him, he heard.

Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but Yahweh delivers him out of them all.

A man’s steps are established by Yahweh. He delights in his way.

I sink in deep mire, where there is no foothold. I have come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.

Yahweh, you have been favorable to your land. You have restored the fortunes of Jacob.

Like a father has compassion on his children, so Yahweh has compassion on those who fear him.

Out of my distress, I called on Yah. Yah answered me with freedom.

See how good and how pleasant it is for brothers to live together in unity!

For my eyes are on you, Yahweh, the Lord. In you, I take refuge. Don’t leave my soul destitute.

I have set watchmen on your walls, Jerusalem. They will never be silent day nor night. You who call on Yahweh, take no rest,

Set up a standard against the walls of Babylon! Make the watch strong! Set the watchmen, and prepare the ambushes; for Yahweh has both purposed and done that which he spoke concerning the inhabitants of Babylon.

For you threw me into the depths, in the heart of the seas. The flood was all around me. All your waves and your billows passed over me.

His mercy is for generations of generations on those who fear him.

So the assemblies throughout all Judea, Galilee, and Samaria had peace, and were built up. They were multiplied, walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit.

Your strength will be spent in vain; for your land won’t yield its increase, neither will the trees of the land yield their fruit.

In my distress, I called on Yahweh. Yes, I called to my God. He heard my voice out of his temple. My cry came into his ears.

They were helped against them, and the Hagrites were delivered into their hand, and all who were with them; for they cried to God in the battle, and he answered them, because they put their trust in him.

These are the singers, heads of fathers’ households of the Levites, who lived in the rooms and were free from other service; for they were employed in their work day and night.

He who sits in the heavens will laugh. The Lord will have them in derision.

Yahweh is in his holy temple. Yahweh is on his throne in heaven. His eyes observe. His eyes examine the children of men.

My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from helping me, and from the words of my groaning?

My God, I have trusted in you. Don’t let me be shamed. Don’t let my enemies triumph over me.

My foot stands in an even place. In the congregations I will bless Yahweh.

Though he stumble, he shall not fall, for Yahweh holds him up with his hand.

These things I remember, and pour out my soul within me, how I used to go with the crowd, and led them to God’s house, with the voice of joy and praise, a multitude keeping a holy day.

Deep calls to deep at the noise of your waterfalls. All your waves and your billows have swept over me.

Evening, morning, and at noon, I will cry out in distress. He will hear my voice.

You have shown your people hard things. You have made us drink the wine that makes us stagger.

So we will not turn away from you. Revive us, and we will call on your name.

Your wrath lies heavily on me. You have afflicted me with all your waves.

He will call on me, and I will answer him. I will be with him in trouble. I will deliver him, and honor him.

But Yahweh’s loving kindness is from everlasting to everlasting with those who fear him, his righteousness to children’s children,

He will bless those who fear Yahweh, both small and great.

He will not allow your foot to be moved. He who keeps you will not slumber.

Though I walk in the middle of trouble, you will revive me. You will stretch out your hand against the wrath of my enemies. Your right hand will save me.

The righteous will never be removed, but the wicked will not dwell in the land.

Truly help from the hills, the tumult on the mountains, is in vain. Truly the salvation of Israel is in Yahweh our God.

I will give her vineyards from there, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope; and she will respond there, as in the days of her youth, and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt.

“For, behold, in those days, and in that time, when I restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem,

He went forward a little, fell on his face, and prayed, saying, “My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass away from me; nevertheless, not what I desire, but what you desire.”

About the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lima sabachthani?” That is, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”

Jesus cried again with a loud voice, and yielded up his spirit.

Early in the morning, while it was still dark, he rose up and went out, and departed into a deserted place, and prayed there.

At the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?” which is, being interpreted, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”

Jesus cried out with a loud voice, and gave up the spirit.

Therefore, receiving a Kingdom that can’t be shaken, let’s have grace, through which we serve God acceptably, with reverence and awe,

A voice came from the throne, saying, “Give praise to our God, all you his servants, you who fear him, the small and the great!”

He sent from on high and he took me. He drew me out of many waters.

The waters surrounded me, even to the soul. The deep was around me. The weeds were wrapped around my head.

Then Jeshua, Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani, and Chenani of the Levites stood up on the stairs, and cried with a loud voice to Yahweh their God.

He sent from on high. He took me. He drew me out of many waters.

He brought me up also out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay. He set my feet on a rock, and gave me a firm place to stand.

You, who have shown us many and bitter troubles, you will let me live. You will bring us up again from the depths of the earth.

You have laid me in the lowest pit, in the darkest depths.

Trouble and anguish have taken hold of me. Your commandments are my delight.

In my distress, I cried to Yahweh. He answered me.

I will lift up my eyes to the hills. Where does my help come from?

I was glad when they said to me, “Let’s go to Yahweh’s house!”

I lift up my eyes to you, you who sit in the heavens.

If it had not been Yahweh who was on our side, let Israel now say,

Those who trust in Yahweh are as Mount Zion, which can’t be moved, but remains forever.

When Yahweh brought back those who returned to Zion, we were like those who dream.

Unless Yahweh builds the house, they who build it labor in vain. Unless Yahweh watches over the city, the watchman guards it in vain.

Blessed is everyone who fears Yahweh, who walks in his ways.

Many times they have afflicted me from my youth up. Let Israel now say,

Yahweh, remember David and all his affliction,

Look! Praise Yahweh, all you servants of Yahweh, who stand by night in Yahweh’s house!

He, in the days of his flesh, having offered up prayers and petitions with strong crying and tears to him who was able to save him from death, and having been heard for his godly fear,
