The In-Dept Study of the Bible
Psalms 129
A Song of Ascents.
1 Many times they have afflicted me from
my youth up. Let Israel now say:
2 many times they have afflicted me from
my youth up, yet they have not prevailed against
me.
3 The plowers plowed on my back.
They made their furrows long.
4 Yahweh is righteous. He has cut apart
the cords of the wicked.
5 Let them be disappointed and turned
backward, all those who hate Zion.
6 Letthem be as the grass on the housetops,
which withers before it grows up,
7 with which the reaper doesn’t fill his
hand, nor he who binds sheaves, his bosom.
8 Neither do those who go by say,
“The blessing of Yahweh be on you.
We bless you in Yahweh’s name.”
