King James Version KJV
Young's Literal Translation YLT
1 Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth, may Israel now say:
1
A Song of the Ascents. Often they distressed me from my youth, Pray, let Israel say:
2 Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth: yet they have not prevailed against me.
2
Often they distressed me from my youth, Yet they have not prevailed over me.
3 The plowers plowed upon my back: they made long their furrows.
3
Over my back have ploughers ploughed, They have made long their furrows.
4 The LORD is righteous: he hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked.
4
Jehovah [is] righteous, He hath cut asunder cords of the wicked.
5 Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion.
5
Confounded and turn backward do all hating Zion.
6 Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withereth afore it groweth up:
6
They are as grass of the roofs, That before it was drawn out withereth,
7 Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand; nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom.
7
That hath not filled the hand of a reaper, And the bosom of a binder of sheaves.
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
And the passers by have not said, `The blessing of Jehovah [is] on you, We blessed you in the Name of Jehovah!'
