Psalms - Chapter 129 | Good News Translation

  • 1. Israel, tell us how your enemies have persecuted you ever since you were young.
  • 2. "Ever since I was young, my enemies have persecuted me cruelly, but they have not overcome me.
  • 3. They cut deep wounds in my back and made it like a plowed field.
  • 4. But the LORD, the righteous one, has freed me from slavery."
  • 5. May everyone who hates Zion be defeated and driven back.
  • 6. May they all be like grass growing on the housetops, which dries up before it can grow;
  • 7. no one gathers it up or carries it away in bundles.
  • 8. No one who passes by will say, "May the LORD bless you! We bless you in the name of the LORD."
