תהילים 129

1 שִׁיר הַֽמַּעֲלוֹת רַבַּת צְרָרוּנִי מִנְּעוּרַי יֹֽאמַר־נָא יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃

A song of degrees. They haue often times afflicted me from my youth (may Israel nowe say)

2 רַבַּת צְרָרוּנִי מִנְּעוּרָי גַּם לֹא־יָכְלוּ לִֽי׃

They haue often times afflicted me from my youth: but they could not preuaile against me.

3 עַל־גַּבִּי חָרְשׁוּ חֹרְשִׁים הֶאֱרִיכוּ למענותם לְמַעֲנִיתָֽם׃

The plowers plowed vpon my backe, and made long furrowes.

4 יְהוָה צַדִּיק קִצֵּץ עֲבוֹת רְשָׁעִֽים׃

But the righteous Lord hath cut the cordes of the wicked.

5 יֵבֹשׁוּ וְיִסֹּגוּ אָחוֹר כֹּל שֹׂנְאֵי צִיּֽוֹן׃

They that hate Zion, shalbe all ashamed and turned backward.

6 יִהְיוּ כַּחֲצִיר גַּגּוֹת שֶׁקַּדְמַת שָׁלַף יָבֵֽשׁ׃

They shalbe as the grasse on the house tops, which withereth afore it commeth forth.

7 שֶׁלֹּא מִלֵּא כַפּוֹ קוֹצֵר וְחִצְנוֹ מְעַמֵּֽר׃

Whereof the mower filleth not his hand, neither the glainer his lap:

8 וְלֹא אָֽמְרוּ ׀ הָעֹבְרִים בִּרְכַּֽת־יְהוָה אֲלֵיכֶם בֵּרַכְנוּ אֶתְכֶם בְּשֵׁם יְהוָֽה׃

Neither they, which go by, say, The blessing of the Lord be vpon you, or, We blesse you in the Name of the Lord.
