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.

Psalms 127
1A Canticle in steps. Blessed are all those who fear the Lord, who walk in his ways. 2For you will eat by the labors of your hands. Blessed are you, and it will be well with you. 3Your wife is like an abundant vine on the sides of your house. Your sons are like young olive trees surrounding your table. 4Behold, so will the man be blessed who fears the Lord. 5May the Lord bless you from Zion, and may you see the good things of Jerusalem, all the days of your life. 6And may you see the sons of your sons. Peace be upon Israel.
