Psalms 129

1 song [the] step many to vex me from youth my to say please Israel

A Song of Ascents. Many times they have afflicted me from my youth up. Let Israel now say:

2 many to vex me from youth my also not be able to/for me

many times they have afflicted me from my youth up, yet they have not prevailed against me.

3 upon back/rim/brow my to plow/plot to plow/plot to prolong (to/for furrow their *Q(K)*)

The plowers plowed on my back. They made their furrows long.

4 LORD righteous to cut cord wicked

The LORD is righteous. He has cut apart the cords of the wicked.

5 be ashamed and to turn back all to hate Zion

Let them be disappointed and turned backward, all those who hate Zion.

6 to be like/as grass roof which/that former to draw to wither

Let them be as the grass on the housetops, which withers before it grows up,

7 which/that not to fill palm his to reap and bosom his to bind

with which the reaper doesn’t fill his hand, nor he who binds sheaves, his bosom.

8 and not to say [the] to pass blessing LORD to(wards) you to bless [obj] you in/on/with name LORD

Neither do those who go by say, “The blessing of the LORD be on you. We bless you in the LORD’s name.”
