Psalm 129:1-Psalm 130:1 - Protection Of The Oppressed

¹ A song of ascents.Since my youth they have often attacked me—
let Israel say—
² Since my youth they have often attacked me,
but they have not prevailed against me.
³ Plowmen plowed over my back;
they made their furrows long.
⁴ The Lord is righteous;
He has cut the ropes of the wicked.

⁵ Let all who hate Zion
be driven back in disgrace.
⁶ Let them be like grass on the rooftops,
which withers before it grows up
⁷ and can’t even fill the hands of the reaper
or the arms of the one who binds sheaves.
⁸ Then none who pass by will say,
“May the Lord’s blessing be on you.”

We bless you in the name of Yahweh.

¹ A song of ascents.Out of the depths I call to You, Yahweh!
