Psalms 129

1Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth, 1 May Israel now say: 1

2Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth: 1 Yet they have not prevailed against me. 1

3The plowers plowed upon my back: 1 They made long their furrows. 1

4The Lord is righteous: 1 He hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked. 1

5Let them all be confounded and turned back 1 That hate Zion. 1

6Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, 1 Which withereth afore it groweth up: 1

7Where with the mower filleth not his hand; 1 Nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom. 1

8Neither do they which go by say, 1 The blessing of the Lord be upon you: 1 We bless you in the name of the Lord.
