Psalm 129

King James Version KJV

1 Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth, may Israel now say:

2 Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth: yet they have not prevailed against me.

3 The plowers plowed upon my back: they made long their furrows.

4 The LORD is righteous: he hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked.

5 Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion.

6 Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withereth afore it groweth up:

7 Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand; nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom.

8 Neither do they which go by say, The blessing of the LORD be upon you: we bless you in the name of the LORD.

New American Standard Bible 1995 NASB95

1 "Many times they have persecuted me from my youth up," Let Israel now say,

2 "Many times they have persecuted me from my youth up; Yet they have not prevailed against me.

3 "The plowers plowed upon my back; They lengthened their furrows."

4 The LORD is righteous; He has cut in two the cords of the wicked.

5 May all who hate Zion Be put to shame and turned backward;

6 Let them be like grass upon the housetops, Which withers before it grows up;

7 With which the reaper does not fill his hand, Or the binder of sheaves his bosom;

8 Nor do those who pass by say, "The blessing of the LORD be upon you; We bless you in the name of the LORD ."
