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 127
1Canticum graduum. [Beati omnes qui timent Dominum, qui ambulant in viis ejus. 2Labores manuum tuarum quia manducabis: beatus es, et bene tibi erit. 3Uxor tua sicut vitis abundans in lateribus domus tu; filii tui sicut novell olivarum in circuitu mens tu. 4Ecce sic benedicetur homo qui timet Dominum. 5Benedicat tibi Dominus ex Sion, et videas bona Jerusalem omnibus diebus vit tu. 6Et videas filios filiorum tuorum: pacem super Isral.]
