Psalms - Chapter 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 {cf15I 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 {cf15I 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 {cf15I be} upon you: we bless you in the name of the LORD.
