Psalms 129 : 1 - 8
Chapter 129
| 1 | "Many a time they have afflicted me from my youth," Let Israel now say--
|
| 2 | "Many a time they have afflicted me from my youth; Yet they have not prevailed against me.
|
| 3 | The plowers plowed on my back; They made their furrows long."
|
| 4 | The LORD is righteous; He has cut in pieces the cords of the wicked.
|
| 5 | Let all those who hate Zion Be put to shame and turned back.
|
| 6 | Let them be as the grass on the housetops, Which withers before it grows up,
|
| 7 | With which the reaper does not fill his hand, Nor he who binds sheaves, his arms.
|
| 8 | Neither let those who pass by them say, "The blessing of the LORD be upon you; We bless you in the name of the LORD!"
