Psalms 129:1-8

129:1

<
<A Song <07892>

of degrees
<04609>.>>

Many a time
<07227>

have they afflicted
<06887> (8804)

me from my youth
<05271>_,

may Israel
<03478>

now say
<0559> (8799)_:

{Many...: or, Much}

129:2

Many a time
<07227>

have they afflicted
<06887> (8804)

me from my youth
<05271>_:

yet they have not prevailed
<03201> (8804)

against me. {Many...: or, Much}

129:3

The plowers
<02790> (8802)

plowed
<02790> (8804)

upon my back
<01354>_:

they made long
<0748> (8689)

their furrows
<04618> (8675) <04618>_.

129:4

The LORD
<03068>

[is] righteous
<06662>_:

he hath cut asunder
<07112> (8765)

the cords
<05688>

of the wicked
<07563>_.

129:5

Let them all be confounded
<0954> (8799)

and turned
<05472> (8735)

back
<0268>

that hate
<08130> (8802)

Zion
<06726>_.

129:6

Let them be as the grass
<02682>

[upon] the housetops
<01406>_,

which withereth
<03001> (8804)

afore
<06927>

it groweth up
<08025> (8804)_:

129:7

Wherewith the mower
<07114> (8802)

filleth
<04390> (8765)

not his hand
<03709>_;

nor he that bindeth sheaves
<06014> (8764)

his bosom
<02683>_.

129:8

Neither do they which go by
<05674> (8802)

say
<0559> (8804)_,

The blessing
<01293>

of the LORD
<03068>

[be] upon you: we bless
<01288> (8765)

you in the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>_.
