←Prev   Psalms 129 as rendered by/in  Next→ 



129:1  A song of ascents. Viciously have they attacked me from my youth, let Israel say now.
129:2  Viciously have they attacked me from my youth, yet they have not prevailed against me.
129:3  Upon my back the plowers plowed, as they traced their long furrows.
129:4  But the just Lord cut me free from the ropes of the wicked.
129:5  May they recoil in disgrace, all who hate Zion.
129:6  May they be like grass on the rooftops withered in early growth,
129:7  Never to fill the reaper’s hands, nor the arms of the binders of sheaves,
129:8  And with none passing by to call out: “The blessing of the Lord be upon you! We bless you in the name of the Lord!”
