46:2 For this reason we do not fear when the earth shakes,
and the mountains tumble into the depths of the sea,
66:12 You allowed men to ride over our heads;
we passed through fire and water,
but you brought us out into a wide open place.
74:8 They say to themselves,
“We will oppress all of them.”
They burn down all the places where people worship God in the land.
79:8 Do not hold us accountable for the sins of earlier generations!
Quickly send your compassion our way,
for we are in serious trouble!
90:14 Satisfy us in the morning with your loyal love!
Then we will shout for joy and be happy all our days!
90:15 Make us happy in proportion to the days you have afflicted us,
in proportion to the years we have experienced trouble!
95:7 For he is our God;
we are the people of his pasture,
the sheep he owns.
Today, if only you would obey him!
106:47 Deliver us, O Lord, our God!
Gather us from among the nations!
Then we will give thanks to your holy name,
and boast about your praiseworthy deeds.
106:48 The Lord God of Israel deserves praise,
in the future and forevermore.
Let all the people say, “We agree! Praise the Lord!”
118:26 May the one who comes in the name of the Lord be blessed!
We will pronounce blessings on you in the Lord’s temple.
A song of ascents, by David.
122:1 I was glad because they said to me,
“We will go to the Lord’s temple.”
126:2 At that time we laughed loudly
and shouted for joy.
At that time the nations said,
“The Lord has accomplished great things for these people.”
129:8 Those who pass by will not say,
“May you experience the Lord’s blessing!
We pronounce a blessing on you in the name of the Lord.”
137:3 for there our captors ask us to compose songs;
those who mock us demand that we be happy, saying:
“Sing for us a song about Zion!”
