< Psalms 129 >

1 Often have they fought against me from my youth, let Israel now say.
[the] song of The ascents much people have opposed me since youth my let it say please Israel.
2 Often have they fought against me from my youth: but they could not prevail over me.
Much people have opposed me since youth my also not they have prevailed to me.
3 The wicked have wrought upon my back: they have lengthened their iniquity.
On back my they have plowed plowmen they have made long (furrows their. *Q(K)*)
4 The Lord who is just will cut the necks of sinners:
Yahweh [is] righteous he has cut off [the] rope of wicked [people].
5 Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Sion.
May they be ashamed and they may be turned back backward all [those who] hate Zion.
6 Let them be as grass on the tops of houses: which withered before it be plucked up:
May they be like [the] grass of roofs that before it has shot up it has withered.
7 Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand: nor he that gathereth sheaves his bosom.
That not he has filled hand his a reaper and bosom his [one who] binds sheaves.
8 And they that have passed by have not said: The blessing of the Lord be upon you: we have blessed you in the name of the Lord.
And not they say - those [who] pass by [the] blessing of Yahweh [be] to you we bless you in [the] name of Yahweh.
