Chapter 129

1

A Song of Ascents

Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth up, Let Israel now say,

2

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

3

The plowers plowed upon my back; They made long their furrows.

4

Jehovah is righteous: He hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked.

5

Let them be put to shame and turned backward, All they that hate Zion.

6

Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, Which withereth before it groweth up;

7

Wherewith the reaper filleth not his hand, Nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom.

8

Neither do they that go by say, The blessing of Jehovah be upon you; We bless you in the name of Jehovah.

Psalms 130
