Psalm 129:5

5 Que todos los que odian a Jerusalén
retrocedan en vergonzosa derrota.

Psalm 129:5 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 129:5

Let them all be confounded
Or "ashamed": as all the enemies of God's people will be sooner or later, either in this world, or however when Christ shall come in the clouds of heaven; or let them be disappointed of their views, aims, and ends, when they will be confounded, as disappointed persons are;

and turned back;
from pursuing their designs and accomplishing them; as the Assyrian monarch was, who had a hook put into his nose, and a bridle in his lips, and was turned back by the way he came, ( Isaiah 37:29 ) ;

that hate Zion;
the inhabitants of Zion, who are called out of the world, and separated from the men of it, and therefore hated by them; the King of Zion, the Messiah, whom they will not have to reign over them; the doctrines of the Gospel, the word that comes out of Zion, to which they are utter enemies; and the laws and ordinances of Zion, the discipline of God's house, which they cannot bear to be under and submit unto.

Psalm 129:5 In-Context

3 Tengo la espalda cubierta de heridas,
como si un agricultor hubiera arado largos surcos.

4 Pero el Señor
es bueno;
cortó las cuerdas con que me ataban los impíos.

5 Que todos los que odian a Jerusalén
retrocedan en vergonzosa derrota.

6 Que sean tan inútiles como la hierba que crece en un techo,
que se pone amarilla a la mitad de su desarrollo,

7 que es ignorada por el cosechador
y despreciada por el que hace los manojos.
