God's New Revelations

The Book of Psalms

Literal Standard Version 2020

- Chapter 129 -

The snares of the wicked

1
A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. Often they distressed me from my youth, || Pray, let Israel say:
2
Often they distressed me from my youth, || Yet they have not prevailed over me.
3
Plowers have plowed over my back, || They have made their furrows long.
4
YHWH [is] righteous, || He has cut apart cords of the wicked.
5
All hating Zion [are] confounded and turn backward.
6
They are as grass of the roofs, || That withers before it was drawn out,
7
That has not filled the hand of a reaper, || And the bosom of a binder of sheaves.
8
And the passers by have not said, “The blessing of YHWH [is] on you, || We blessed you in the Name of YHWH!”
