Psalms 129

8 verses

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