Young's Literal Translation Bible

Psalms 129

1

A Song of the Ascents. Often they distressed me from my youth, Pray, let Israel say:

2

Often they distressed me from my youth, Yet they have not prevailed over me.

3

Over my back have ploughers ploughed, They have made long their furrows.

4

Jehovah is righteous, He hath cut asunder cords of the wicked.

5

Confounded and turn backward do all hating Zion.

6

They are as grass of the roofs, That before it was drawn out withereth,

7

That hath not filled the hand of a reaper, And the bosom of a binder of sheaves.

8

And the passers by have not said, `The blessing of Jehovah is on you, We blessed you in the Name of Jehovah!'
