3 The plowers plowed on my back; They made their furrows long."

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

4 The Lord is righteous; He has cut in pieces the cords of the wicked.

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

5 Let all those who hate Zion Be put to shame and turned back.

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

6 Let them be as the grass on the housetops, Which withers before it grows up,

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

7 With which the reaper does not fill his hand, Nor he who binds sheaves, his arms.

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.

8 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!"
