Psalms 129Book 19 of 66 · 8 verses · MBT primary, NKJV fallback where MBT pending
- Song of Ascents. “Many a time they have afflicted me from my youth,” let Israel now say—
- “Many a time they have afflicted me from my youth; yet they have not prevailed against me.
- The plowers plowed on my back; they made their furrows long.”
- The LORD is righteous; He has cut in pieces the cords of the wicked.
- Let all those who hate Zion be put to shame and turned back.
- Let them be as the grass on the housetops, which withers before it grows up,
- With which the reaper does not fill his hand, nor he who binds sheaves, his arms.
- Neither let those who pass by them say, “The blessing of the LORD be upon you; We bless you in the name of the LORD!”
