Psalms 129: (ASV)
|
1) Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth up, Let Israel now say,
|
2) Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth up: Yet they have not prevailed against me.
|
3) The plowers plowed upon my back; They made long their furrows.
|
4) Jehovah is righteous: He hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked.
|
5) Let them be put to shame and turned backward, All they that hate Zion.
|
6) Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, Which withereth before it groweth up;
|
7) Wherewith the reaper filleth not his hand, Nor he that bindeth sheaves, his bosom:
|
8) Neither do they that go by say, The blessing of Jehovah be upon you; We bless you in the name of Jehovah.
