[4] So, Lord, bring back the good times, like a desert stream filled again with flowing water.
[5] Then those who were sad when they planted will be happy when they gather the harvest!
[6] Those who cried as they carried the seeds will be happy when they bring in the crops!

[3] The wicked will not always control the land of those who do right. If they did, even those who do right might start doing wrong.
[4] Lord, be good to those who are good, to those who have pure hearts.
[5] But, Lord, when you punish those who do evil, also punish those who have stopped following your way. Let Israel always enjoy peace!

[1] Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion. They will never be shaken. They will continue forever.
[2] Like the mountains that surround Jerusalem, the Lord surrounds and protects his people now and forever.

[2] What would have happened to us if the Lord had not been on our side when people attacked us?
[5] Those proud people would have been like water rising up to our mouth and drowning us.
[6] Praise the Lord! He did not let our enemies tear us apart.
https://bible.com/bible/406/psa.124.2-6.ERV
[3] Lord, be merciful to us, because we have been insulted much too long.
[4] We have had enough of the hateful words of those proud people who make fun of us and show us no respect.
https://bible.com/bible/406/psa.123.3-4.ERV
[2] A slave looks to his master to provide what he needs, and a servant girl depends on the woman she serves. So we depend on the Lord our God, waiting for him to have mercy on us.
https://bible.com/bible/406/psa.123.2.ERV
[6] Pray for peace in Jerusalem: “May those who love you find peace.
[7] May there be peace within your walls. May there be safety in your great buildings.”
[8] For the good of my family and neighbors, I pray that there will be peace here.
