Psalm 129 :: Darby Translation (DBY)

Psa 129:1{A Song of degrees.} Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth -- oh let Israel say --
Psa 129:2Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth; yet they have not prevailed against me.
Psa 129:3The ploughers ploughed upon my back; they made long their furrows.
Psa 129:4Jehovah is righteous: he hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked.
Psa 129:5Let them be ashamed and turned backward, all that hate Zion;
Psa 129:6Let them be as the grass upon the house-tops, which withereth before it is plucked up,
Psa 129:7Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand, nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom;
Psa 129:8Neither do the passers-by say, The blessing of Jehovah be upon you; we bless you in the name of Jehovah!

In 1867, John Nelson Darby translated the New Testament from Greek into English. Further revisions were done in 1872 and 1884. Darby’s work was first published as The Holy Scriptures: A New Translation from the Original Languages by J. N. Darby. After Darby’s death in 1882, some of his students worked together to produce the complete Darby Bible based on the Masoretic Hebrew text, Darby’s German (Elberfelder), and the French (Pau) translations. In 1890, the first complete Darby Bible was published in English. This translation of the Bible is in the public domain.
