Psalms 129

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

Множицею брашася со мною от юности моея, да речет убо Израиль:

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

множицею брашася со мною от юности моея, ибо не премогоша мя.

3 The ploughers ploughed on my back. They made their furrows long.

На хребте моем делаша грешницы, продолжиша беззаконие свое.

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

Господь праведен ссече выя грешников.

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

Да постыдятся и возвратятся вспять вси ненавидящии Сиона:

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

да будут яко трава на здех, яже прежде восторжения изсше:

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

еюже не исполни руки своея жняй, и недра своего рукояти собираяй:

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

и не реша мимоходящии: благословение Господне на вы, благословихом вы во имя Господне.
