Psalm 129 - A Song of degrees

Many a time have they afflicted me
from my youth, may Israel now say:

Many a time have they afflicted
me from my youth: yet they

have not prevailed against me.

The plowers plowed upon my back:
they made long their furrows.

The Lord is righteous: he hath cut
asunder the cords of the wicked.

Let them all be confounded and
turned back that hate Zion.

Let them be as the grass
upon the housetops, which

withereth afore it groweth up:

Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand;
nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom.

Neither do they which go by say, The
blessing of the Lord be upon you: we

bless you in the name of the Lord.
