Psalms129
Prayer for the Overthrow of Zion’s Enemies.
A Song of Ascents.
1“ Many times they have persecuted me from my youth up,” Let Israel now say,2“ Many times they have persecuted me from my youth up; Yet they have not prevailed against me.3The plowers plowed upon my back; They lengthened their furrows.”4The LORD is righteous; He has cut in two the cords of the wicked. 5May all who hate ZionBe put to shame and turned backward;6Let them be like grass upon the housetops, Which withers before it grows up;7With which the reaper does not fill his hand, Or the binder of sheaves his bosom;8Nor do those who pass by say, “The blessing of the LORD be upon you; We bless you in the name of the LORD.”
