📖 Psalms 129

1
Many times they have afflicted me from my youth up. Let Israel now say,
-
2
many times they have 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 disappointed 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.
