詩篇 129

1 上行之詩。 以色列當說：從我幼年以來， 敵人屢次苦害我，

A Song of Ascents. Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth up, Let Israel now say,

2 從我幼年以來，敵人屢次苦害我， 卻沒有勝了我。

Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth up: Yet they have not prevailed against me.

3 如同扶犂的在我背上扶犂而耕， 耕的犂溝甚長。

The plowers plowed upon my back; They made long their furrows.

4 耶和華是公義的； 他砍斷了惡人的繩索。

Jehovah is righteous: He hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked.

5 願恨惡錫安的都蒙羞退後！

Let them be put to shame and turned backward, All they that hate Zion.

6 願他們像房頂上的草， 未長成而枯乾，

Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, Which withereth before it groweth up;

7 收割的不夠一把， 捆禾的也不滿懷。

Wherewith the reaper filleth not his hand, Nor he that bindeth sheaves, his bosom:

8 過路的也不說： 願耶和華所賜的福歸與你們！ 我們奉耶和華的名給你們祝福！

Neither do they that go by say, The blessing of Jehovah be upon you; We bless you in the name of Jehovah.
