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 degrees. Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth, may 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: 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。

The LORD [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 all be confounded and turned back 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 house-tops, which withereth before it groweth up:

7 收割的不夠一把， 捆禾的也不滿懷。

With which the mower 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 who go by, say, The blessing of the LORD [be] upon you: we bless you in the name of the LORD.
