< Psalmi 129 >
1 Svētku dziesma. Tie mani daudzkārt apbēdinājuši no manas jaunības, tā lai Israēls saka;
Often have they fought against me from my youth, let Israel now say.
2 Tie mani daudzkārt apbēdinājuši no manas jaunības, bet tie mani nav pārvarējuši.
Often have they fought against me from my youth: but they could not prevail over me.
3 Arāji ir aruši uz manas muguras, tie savas vagas garas dzinuši.
The wicked have wrought upon my back: they have lengthened their iniquity.
4 Tas Kungs ir taisns, Viņš sacirtis bezdievīgo valgus.
The Lord who is just will cut the necks of sinners:
5 Lai top kaunā un atpakaļ dzīti visi kas Ciānu ienīst.
Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Sion.
6 Lai tie top kā zāle uz jumtiem, kas nokalst, pirms tā top plūkta,
Let them be as grass on the tops of houses: which withered before it be plucked up:
7 Ar ko pļāvējs nepilda savu roku, nedz kopiņu sējējs savu klēpi.
Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand: nor he that gathereth sheaves his bosom.
8 Un tie, kas garām iet, lai nesaka: Tā Kunga svētība lai nāk pār jums, mēs jūs svētījam Tā Kunga Vārdā.
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.
