World English Bible

Psalms 129

1

Many times have they afflicted me from my youth up. Let Israel now say,

2

Many times have they afflicted me from my youth up, Yet they have not prevailed against me.

3

The plowers plowed on my back. They made their furrows long.

4

Yahweh is righteous. He has cut apart the cords of the wicked.

5

Let them be put to shame and turned backward, All those who hate Zion.

6

Let them be as the grass on the housetops, Which withers before it grows up;

7

With which the reaper doesn't fill his hand, Nor he who binds sheaves, his bosom.

8

Neither do those who go by say, "The blessing of Yahweh be on you. We bless you in the name of Yahweh."

A Song of Ascents.
