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