←Prev   Psalms 129 as rendered by/in  Next→ 



129:1  (A song for worship.) Since the time I was young, enemies have often attacked! Let everyone in Israel say:
129:2  “Since the time I was young, enemies have often attacked! But they have not defeated me,
129:3  though my back is like a field that has just been plowed.”
129:4  The Lord always does right, and he has set me free from the ropes of those cruel people.
129:5  I pray that all who hate the city of Zion will be made ashamed and forced to turn and run.
129:6  May they be like grass on the flat roof of a house, grass that dries up as soon as it sprouts.
129:7  Don't let them be like wheat gathered in bundles.
129:8  And don't let anyone who passes by say to them, “The Lord bless you! I give you my blessing in the name of the Lord.”
