Psalms 129

Psalm 129
A song of ascents.
1 "They have greatly oppressed(a) me from my youth,"(b)
let Israel say;(c)
2 "they have greatly oppressed me from my youth,
but they have not gained the victory(d) over me.
3 Plowmen have plowed my back
and made their furrows long.
4 But the Lord is righteous;(e)
he has cut me free(f) from the cords of the wicked."(g)
5 May all who hate Zion(h)
be turned back in shame.(i)
6 May they be like grass on the roof,(j)
which withers(k) before it can grow;
7 a reaper cannot fill his hands with it,(l)
nor one who gathers fill his arms.
8 May those who pass by not say to them,
"The blessing of the Lord be on you;
we bless you(m) in the name of the Lord."
