< Salmos 129 >
1 Muchas veces me persiguieron desde mi juventud. Que [lo] diga ahora Israel:
A Song of Degrees. Many a time have they warred against me from my youth, let Israel now say:
2 Muchas veces me persiguieron desde mi juventud, Pero no prevalecieron contra mí.
Many a time have they warred against me from my youth: and yet they prevailed not against me.
3 Los aradores araron sobre mi espalda. Hicieron largos surcos.
The sinners wrought upon my back: they prolonged their iniquity.
4 Yavé es justo, Cortó las cuerdas de los perversos.
The righteous Lord has cut asunder the necks of sinners.
5 Sean avergonzados y vueltos atrás Todos los que aborrecen a Sion.
Let all that hate Sion be put to shame and turned back.
6 Sean como [la] hierba de las azoteas Que se marchita antes de crecer,
Let them be as the grass of the housetops, which withers before it is plucked up.
7 Con la cual el cosechero no llena su mano, Ni el regazo el que ata manojos.
Wherewith the reaper fills not his hand, nor he that makes up the sheaves, his bosom.
8 Ni le dicen los que pasan: La bendición de Yavé sea sobre ustedes, Los bendecimos en el Nombre de Yavé.
Neither do they that go by say, The blessing of the Lord be upon you: we have blessed you in the name of the Lord.
