Psalms
The Psalter is Israel’s hymnbook: lament, praise, thanksgiving, royal psalms, and wisdom. It trains the heart to speak to God in trouble and in joy, and it points ahead to the Messiah.
Clementine Vulgate
Psalms 122
1Canticum graduum. [Ad te levavi oculos meos, qui habitas in clis. 2Ecce sicut oculi servorum in manibus dominorum suorum; sicut oculi ancill in manibus domin su: ita oculi nostri ad Dominum Deum nostrum, donec misereatur nostri. 3Miserere nostri, Domine, miserere nostri, quia multum repleti sumus despectione; 4quia multum repleta est anima nostra opprobrium abundantibus, et despectio superbis.]
