Psalm 129:1-8

(Song of the goings up.) 129  Ever since my youth they have made plenty of assaults on me, let Israel say; 2  Ever since my youth they have made plenty of assaults on meyet could not master me. 3  Plowmen plowed on my back,plowed a long strip. 4  Jehovah, doer of right,has cut through wrong-doers’ rope; 5  All Sion’s haterscome to grief and fall back, 6  Become like roof grassthat dries up before it has made a stalk, 7  With which no reaper has filled his hand,no binder his arm, 8  And the passersby have not said“Jehovah’s blessing to you;we bless you in Jehovah’s name.”
