< Psalms 129 >

1 A Song of Degrees. Many a time have they warred against me from my youth, let Israel now say:
“Masansan a rautendak sipud pay kinaagtutubok,” ibaga koma ti Israel.
2 Many a time have they warred against me from my youth: and yet they prevailed not against me.
“Masansan a rautendak sipud pay kinaagtutubok, ngem saandak latta a naparmek.
3 The sinners wrought upon my back: they prolonged their iniquity.
Nagarado iti likodak dagiti agar-arado; pinaatiddogda dagiti gulgulisda.
4 The righteous Lord has cut asunder the necks of sinners.
Nalinteg ni Yahweh; pinutedna dagiti tali dagiti nadangkes.”
5 Let all that hate Sion be put to shame and turned back.
Maibabainda koma amin ken tumallikodda, dagiti manggurgura iti Sion.
6 Let them be as the grass of the housetops, which withers before it is plucked up.
Agbalinda koma a kasla iti ruot kadagiti tuktok ti balay a magango sakbay a dumakkel,
7 Wherewith the reaper fills not his hand, nor he that makes up the sheaves, his bosom.
a saanna a mapunno iti ima ti aggapgapas wenno ti barukong ti agrepreppet iti apit.
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.
Saan koma nga ibaga dagiti lumabas, “Maadda koma kadakayo ti bendision ni Yahweh; bendisionandakayo iti nagan ni Yahweh.”
