Psalm 129:1-6 (The Message)
View In My Bible
1
"They've kicked me around ever since I was young" - this is how Israel tells it -
2
"They've kicked me around ever since I was young, but they never could keep me down.
3
Their plowmen plowed long furrows up and down my back;
4
Then God ripped the harnesses of the evil plowmen to shreds."
5
Oh, let all those who hate Zion grovel in humiliation;
6
Let them be like grass in shallow ground that withers before the harvest,
