תהילים 129

1 שִׁיר הַֽמַּעֲלוֹת רַבַּת צְרָרוּנִי מִנְּעוּרַי יֹאמַר־נָא יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃

Often have they fought against me from my youth, let Israel now say.

2 רַבַּת צְרָרוּנִי מִנְּעוּרָי גַּם לֹא־יָכְלוּ לִֽי׃

Often have they fought against me from my youth: but they could not prevail over me.

3 עַל־גַּבִּי חָרְשׁוּ חֹרְשִׁים הֶאֱרִיכוּ (למענותם) [לְמַעֲנִיתָֽם]׃

The wicked have wrought upon my back: they have lengthened their iniquity.

4 יְהֹוָה צַדִּיק קִצֵּץ עֲבוֹת רְשָׁעִֽים׃

The Lord who is just will cut the necks of sinners:

5 יֵבֹשׁוּ וְיִסֹּגוּ אָחוֹר כֹּל שֹׂנְאֵי צִיּֽוֹן׃

Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Sion.

6 יִהְיוּ כַּחֲצִיר גַּגּוֹת שֶׁקַּדְמַת שָׁלַף יָבֵֽשׁ׃

Let them be as grass on the tops of houses: which withered before it be plucked up:

7 שֶׁלֹּא מִלֵּא כַפּוֹ קוֹצֵר וְחִצְנוֹ מְעַמֵּֽר׃

Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand: nor he that gathereth sheaves his bosom.

8 וְלֹא אָמְרוּ ׀ הָעֹבְרִים בִּרְכַּֽת־יְהֹוָה אֲלֵיכֶם בֵּרַכְנוּ אֶתְכֶם בְּשֵׁם יְהֹוָֽה׃

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.
