Psalm 129:1-8

A Song of Ascents.
1 Often have they attacked me from my youth
    —let Israel now say—
2 often have they attacked me from my youth,
    yet they have not prevailed against me.
3 The plowers plowed on my back;
    they made their furrows long.
4 The Lord is righteous;
    he has cut the cords of the wicked.
5 May all who hate Zion
    be put to shame and turned backward.
6 Let them be like the grass on the housetops
    that withers before it grows up,
7 with which reapers do not fill their hands
    or binders of sheaves their arms,
8 while those who pass by do not say,
    “The blessing of the Lord be upon you!
    We bless you in the name of the Lord!”
