122:3. Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us: for we are greatly
filled with contempt.

122:4. For our soul is greatly filled: we are a reproach to the rich,
and contempt to the proud.

Psalms Chapter 123

Nisi quia Domini.

The church giveth glory to God for her deliverance, from the hands of
her enemies.

123:1. A gradual canticle. If it had not been that the Lord was with us,
let Israel now say:

123:2. If it had not been that the Lord was with us, When men rose up
against us,

123:3. Perhaps they had swallowed us up alive. When their fury was
enkindled against us,

123:4. Perhaps the waters had swallowed us up.

123:5. Our soul hath passed through a torrent: perhaps our soul had
passed through a water insupportable.

123:6. Blessed be the Lord, who hath not given us to be a prey to their
teeth.

123:7. Our soul hath been delivered as a sparrow out of the snare of the
fowlers. The snare is broken, and we are delivered.

123:8. Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

Psalms Chapter 124

Qui confidunt.

The just are always under God's protection.

124:1. A gradual canticle. They that trust in the Lord shall be as mount
Sion: he shall not be moved for ever that dwelleth

124:2. In Jerusalem. Mountains are round about it: so the Lord is round
about his people from henceforth now and for ever.

124:3. For the Lord will not leave the rod of sinners upon the lot of
the just: that the just may not stretch forth their hands to iniquity.

124:4. Do good, O Lord, to those that are good, and to the upright of
heart.

124:5. But such as turn aside into bonds, the Lord shall lead out with
the workers of iniquity: peace upon Israel.

Psalms Chapter 125

In convertendo.

The people of God rejoice at their delivery from captivity.

125:1. A gradual canticle. When the Lord brought back the captivity of
Sion, we became like men comforted.

125:2. Then was our mouth filled with gladness; and our tongue with joy.
Then shall they say among the Gentiles: The Lord hath done great things
for them.

125:3. The Lord hath done great things for us: we are become joyful.

125:4. Turn again our captivity, O Lord, as a stream in the south.

125:5. They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

125:6. Going they went and wept, casting their seeds.

125:7. But coming they shall come with joyfulness, carrying their
sheaves.
