Psalms 129 — YLT

129Verse 1A Song of the Ascents. Often they distressed me from my youth, Pray, let Israel say:^{Verse 2}Often they distressed me from my youth, Yet they have not prevailed over me.^{Verse 3}Over my back have ploughers ploughed, They have made long their furrows.^{Verse 4}Jehovah [is] righteous, He hath cut asunder cords of the wicked.^{Verse 5}Confounded and turn backward do all hating Zion.^{Verse 6}They are as grass of the roofs, That before it was drawn out withereth,^{Verse 7}That hath not filled the hand of a reaper, And the bosom of a binder of sheaves.^{Verse 8}And the passers by have not said, 'The blessing of Jehovah [is] on you, We blessed you in the Name of Jehovah!'
