Psalms Chapter 129
1 | Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth, may Israel now say: | 2 | Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth: yet they have not prevailed against me. | 3 | The plowers plowed upon my back: they made long their furrows. | 4 | The LORD is righteous: he hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked. | 5 | Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion. | 6 | Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withereth afore it groweth up: | 7 | Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand; nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom. | 8 | Neither do they which go by say, The blessing of the LORD be upon you: we bless you in the name of the LORD. |
