Ps 129
0 Psalm 129
A Song of Ascents.
1
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
YHWH is righteous: He has 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 withers before it grows up;
7
Wherewith the reaper fills not his hand, Nor he who binds sheaves his bosom.
8
Neither do they that go by say, The blessing of YHWH be upon you; We bless you in
the name of YHWH.
