The Psalms 129
A Prayer for the Overthrow of Zion’s Enemies |
|
| 1 |
Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth,
|
| 2 |
Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth:
| | |
yet they have not prevailed against me. |
|
|
| 3 |
The plowers plowed upon my back:
| | |
they made long their furrows. |
|
|
| 4 |
The LORD is righteous:
| | |
he hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked. |
|
|
| 5 |
Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion.
|
| 6 |
Let them be as the grass upon the housetops,
| | |
which withereth afore it groweth up: |
|
|
| 7 |
wherewith the mower filleth not his hand;
| | |
nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom. |
|
|
| 8 |
Neither do they which go by say,
| | |
The blessing of the LORD be upon you: |
|
we bless you in the name of the LORD. |
