< תהילים 129 >
שיר המעלות רבת צררוני מנעורי-- יאמר-נא ישראל | 1 |
Often have they fought against me from my youth, let Israel now say.
רבת צררוני מנעורי גם לא-יכלו לי | 2 |
Often have they fought against me from my youth: but they could not prevail over me.
על-גבי חרשו חרשים האריכו למענותם (למעניתם) | 3 |
The wicked have wrought upon my back: they have lengthened their iniquity.
יהוה צדיק קצץ עבות רשעים | 4 |
The Lord who is just will cut the necks of sinners:
יבשו ויסגו אחור-- כל שנאי ציון | 5 |
Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Sion.
יהיו כחציר גגות-- שקדמת שלף יבש | 6 |
Let them be as grass on the tops of houses: which withered before it be plucked up:
שלא מלא כפו קוצר וחצנו מעמר | 7 |
Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand: nor he that gathereth sheaves his bosom.
ולא אמרו העברים-- ברכת-יהוה אליכם ברכנו אתכם בשם יהוה | 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.
