Psalmi 129

1 Mnogo mi dosaðivaše od mladosti moje, neka reèe Izrailj,

A song of ascents. Many a time they have persecuted me from my youth— let Israel now declare—

2 Mnogo mi dosaðivaše od mladosti moje, ali me ne svladaše.

many a time they have persecuted me from my youth, but they have not prevailed against me.

3 Na leðima mojim oraše oraèi, i vodiše duge brazde svoje.

The plowmen plowed over my back; they made their furrows long.

4 Gospod je pravedan; isijeèe konopce bezbožnièke.

The LORD is righteous; He has cut me from the cords of the wicked.

5 Postidjeæe se, odbiæe se svi koji nenavide Sion.

May all who hate Zion be turned back in shame.

6 Biæe kao trava na krovovima, koja se sasušuje prije nego se poèupa,

May they be like grass on the rooftops, which withers before it can grow,

7 Od koje neæe žetelac napuniti ruke svoje, niti naruèja svojega vezilac;

unable to fill the hands of the reaper, or the arms of the binder of sheaves.

8 I koji prolaze neæe reæi: “Blagoslov Gospodnji na vama! blagosiljamo vas imenom Gospodnjim.”

May none who pass by say to them, “The blessing of the LORD be on you; we bless you in the name of the LORD.”
