Psalms 129

1 A Song of Degrees. Many a time have they warred against me from my youth, let Israel now say:

Pesem preizvrstna. Mnogo so me stiskali od mladosti moje, govori naj sedaj Izrael.

2 Many a time have they warred against me from my youth: and yet they prevailed not against me.

Mnogo so me stiskali od mladosti moje; vendar me niso zmogli.

3 The sinners wrought upon my back: they prolonged their iniquity.

Po hrbtu so mi orali orači, potegnili so vsako črto svojo.

4 The righteous Lord has cut asunder the necks of sinners.

Gospod pravični presekal je debele vrvi krivičnih.

5 Let all that hate Sion be put to shame and turned back.

Osramotili se bodo in nazaj pognali vsi sovražniki Sijonovi.

6 Let them be as the grass of the housetops, which withers before it is plucked up.

Bodo kakor seno na strehah, katero usahne, predno se izdere,

7 Wherewith the reaper fills not his hand, nor he that makes up the sheaves, his bosom.

S katerim ne napolni roke svoje žanjec, ali naročja svojega, kdor veže snope.

8 Neither do they that go by say, The blessing of the Lord be upon you: we have blessed you in the name of the Lord.

In ne porekó mimo gredoči: Blagoslov Gospodov bodi z vami; blagoslavljamo vas v imenu Gospodovem.
