< Psalms 129 >

1 MANY a time have they afflicted me from my youth, may Israel now say:
上行之诗。 以色列当说:从我幼年以来, 敌人屡次苦害我,
2 Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth: yet they have not prevailed against me.
从我幼年以来,敌人屡次苦害我, 却没有胜了我。
3 The plowers plowed upon my back: they made long their furrows.
如同扶犁的在我背上扶犁而耕, 耕的犁沟甚长。
4 The Lord is righteous: he hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked.
耶和华是公义的; 他砍断了恶人的绳索。
5 Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion.
愿恨恶锡安的都蒙羞退后!
6 Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withereth afore it groweth up:
愿他们像房顶上的草, 未长成而枯干,
7 Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand; nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom.
收割的不够一把, 捆禾的也不满怀。
8 Neither do they which go by say, The blessing of the Lord be upon you: we bless you in the name of the Lord.
过路的也不说: 愿耶和华所赐的福归与你们! 我们奉耶和华的名给你们祝福!
