Psa 129:1
A Song of Ascents.
“[fn]Many H7227 times H7227 they have [fn]assailed H6887 me from my youth H5271 up,”
Let Israel H3478 now H4994 say H559,
Psa 129:2
“[fn]Many H7227 times H7227 they have [fn]assailed H6887 me from my youth H5271 up;
Yet H1571 they have not prevailed H3201 against me.
Psa 129:3
“The plowers H2790 plowed H2790 upon my back H1354;
They lengthened H748 their furrows H4618.”
Psa 129:4
Yahweh H3068 is righteous H6662;
He has cut H7112 up H7112 the cords H5688 of the wicked H7563.
Psa 129:5
Let all H3605 who hate H8130 Zion H6726
Be put H954 to H954 shame H954 and turned H5472 backward H268;
Psa 129:6
Let them be like grass H2682 upon the rooftops H1406,
Which H7945 dries H3001 up H3001 before H6927 it [fn]grows H8025 up;
Psa 129:7
With which H7945 the reaper H7114 does not fill H4390 his [fn]hand H3709,
Nor the binder H6014 of H6014 sheaves H6014 the fold H2683 of H2683 his garment H2683;
Psa 129:8
And H3808 those who pass H5674 by H5674 will not say H559,
“The blessing H1293 of Yahweh H3068 be upon you;
We bless H1288 you in the name H8034 of Yahweh H3068.”
