Psalms 129 — OURB

129Verse 1Many times they have afflicted me from my youth up.Let Israel [God prevails] now say,^{Verse 2}many times they have afflicted me from my youth up,yet they have not prevailed against me.^{Verse 3}The plowers plowed on my back.They made their furrows long.^{Verse 4}Adonai is righteous.He has cut apart the cords of the wicked.^{Verse 5}Let them be disappointed and turned backward,all those who hate Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking].^{Verse 6}Let them be as the grass on the housetops,which withers before it grows up;^{Verse 7}with which the reaper does not fill his hand,nor he who binds sheaves, his bosom.^{Verse 8}Neither do those who go by say,“The blessing of Adonai be on you.
We bless you in Adonai’s name.”
