A Song of Ascents. |
1
|
Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth up, Let Israel now say, |
2
|
Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth up: Yet they have not
prevailed against me. |
3
|
The plowers plowed upon my back; They made long their furrows. |
4
|
YAHUVEH is righteous: He hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked. |
5
|
Let them be put to shame and turned backward, All they that hate Zion. |
6
|
Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, Which withereth before it
groweth up; |
7
|
Wherewith the reaper filleth not his hand, Nor he that bindeth sheaves
his bosom. |
8
|
Neither do they that go by say, The blessing of YAHUVEH be upon you; We
bless you in the name of YAHUVEH. |
