129:1 1 He admonisheth the Church to rejoice though it be afflicted. 4 For by the righteous Lord it shall be delivered. 6 And the enemies for all their glorious show, shall suddenly be destroyed. A song of degrees. They have oftentimes afflicted me from my youth (may Israel now say)
129:2 They have oftentimes afflicted me from my youth: but they could not prevail against me.
129:3 The plowers plowed upon my back, and made long furrows.
129:4 But the righteous Lord hath cut the cords of the wicked.
129:5 They that hate Zion, shall be all ashamed and turned backward.
129:6 They shall be as the grass on the house tops, which withereth afore it cometh forth.
129:7 Whereof the mower filleth not his hand, neither the gleaner his lap:
129:8 Neither they which go by, say, The blessing of the Lord be upon you, or, We bless you in the Name of the Lord.
