Psalm 130-131

New King James Version

Waiting for the Redemption of the Lord

A Song of Ascents.

130 Out ^(A)of the depths I have cried to You, O Lord;
²Lord, hear my voice!
Let Your ears be attentive
To the voice of my supplications.

³^(B)If You, Lord, should ^[a]mark iniquities,
O Lord, who could ^(C)stand?
⁴But there is ^(D)forgiveness with You,
That ^(E)You may be feared.

⁵^(F)I wait for the Lord, my soul waits,
And ^(G)in His word I do hope.
⁶^(H)My soul waits for the Lord
More than those who watch for the morning—
Yes, more than those who watch for the morning.

⁷^(I)O Israel, hope in the Lord;
For ^(J)with the Lord there is mercy,
And with Him is abundant redemption.
⁸And ^(K)He shall redeem Israel
From all his iniquities.

Simple Trust in the Lord

A Song of Ascents. Of David.

131 Lord, my heart is not ^[b]haughty,
Nor my eyes ^[c]lofty.
^(L)Neither do I ^[d]concern myself with great matters,
Nor with things too ^[e]profound for me.

²Surely I have calmed and quieted my soul,
^(M)Like a weaned child with his mother;
Like a weaned child is my soul within me.

³^(N)O Israel, hope in the Lord
From this time forth and forever.

The Parable of the Minas^(A)

¹¹Now as they heard these things, He spoke another parable, because He was near Jerusalem and because ^(B)they thought the kingdom of God would appear immediately. ¹²^(C)Therefore He said: “A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom and to return. ¹³So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten ^[a]minas, and said to them, ‘Do business till I come.’ ¹⁴^(D)But his citizens hated him, and sent a delegation after him, saying, ‘We will not have this man to reign over us.’

¹⁵“And so it was that when he returned, having received the kingdom, he then commanded these servants, to whom he had given the money, to be called to him, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading. ¹⁶Then came the first, saying, ‘Master, your mina has earned ten minas.’ ¹⁷And he said to him, ^(E)‘Well done, good servant; because you were ^(F)faithful in a very little, have authority over ten cities.’ ¹⁸And the second came, saying, ‘Master, your mina has earned five minas.’ ¹⁹Likewise he said to him, ‘You also be over five cities.’

²⁰“Then another came, saying, ‘Master, here is your mina, which I have kept put away in a handkerchief. ²¹^(G)For I feared you, because you are ^[b]an austere man. You collect what you did not deposit, and reap what you did not sow.’ ²²And he said to him, ^(H)‘Out of your own mouth I will judge you, you wicked servant. ^(I)You knew that I was an austere man, collecting what I did not deposit and reaping what I did not sow. ²³Why then did you not put my money in the bank, that at my coming I might have collected it with interest?’

²⁴“And he said to those who stood by, ‘Take the mina from him, and give it to him who has ten minas.’ ²⁵(But they said to him, ‘Master, he has ten minas.’) ²⁶‘For I say to you, ^(J)that to everyone who has will be given; and from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him. ²⁷But bring here those enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, and slay them before me.’ ”

The Triumphal Entry^(K)

²⁸When He had said this, ^(L)He went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem. ²⁹^(M)And it came to pass, when He drew near to ^[c]Bethphage and ^(N)Bethany, at the mountain called ^(O)Olivet, that He sent two of His disciples, ³⁰saying, “Go into the village opposite you, where as you enter you will find a colt tied, on which no one has ever sat. Loose it and bring it here. ³¹And if anyone asks you, ‘Why are you loosing it?’ thus you shall say to him, ‘Because the Lord has need of it.’ ”

³²So those who were sent went their way and found it just ^(P)as He had said to them. ³³But as they were loosing the colt, the owners of it said to them, “Why are you loosing the colt?”

³⁴And they said, “The Lord has need of him.” ³⁵Then they brought him to Jesus. ^(Q)And they threw their own clothes on the colt, and they set Jesus on him. ³⁶And as He went, many spread their clothes on the road.

³⁷Then, as He was now drawing near the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to ^(R)rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works they had seen, ³⁸saying:

^(S)“ ‘Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord!’
^(T)Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!”

³⁹And some of the Pharisees called to Him from the crowd, “Teacher, rebuke Your disciples.”

⁴⁰But He answered and said to them, “I tell you that if these should keep silent, ^(U)the stones would immediately cry out.”

Jesus Weeps over Jerusalem

⁴¹Now as He drew near, He saw the city and ^(V)wept over it, ⁴²saying, “If you had known, even you, especially in this ^(W)your day, the things that ^(X)make for your ^(Y)peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes. ⁴³For days will come upon you when your enemies will ^(Z)build an embankment around you, surround you and close you in on every side, ⁴⁴^(AA)and level you, and your children within you, to the ground; and ^(AB)they will not leave in you one stone upon another, ^(AC)because you did not know the time of your visitation.”
