Psalms 129

Darby Translation

1{A Song of degrees.} Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth -- oh let Israel say --
2Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth; yet they have not prevailed against me.
3The ploughers ploughed upon my back; they made long their furrows.
4Jehovah is righteous: he hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked.
5Let them be ashamed and turned backward, all that hate Zion;
6Let them be as the grass upon the house-tops, which withereth before it is plucked up,
7Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand, nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom;
8Neither do the passers-by say, The blessing of Jehovah be upon you; we bless you in the name of Jehovah!
