  • They Have Afflicted Me from My Youth

    A Song of Ascents.

    “Greatlya have they afflicted me from my youth” —
    let Israel now say —
  • “Many times they have persecuted me from my youth up,”
    Let Israel now say,
  • “Greatly have they afflicted me from my youth,
    yet they have not prevailed against me.
  • “Many times they have persecuted me from my youth up;
    Yet they have not prevailed against me.
  • The plowers plowed upon my back;
    they made long their furrows.”
  • “The plowers plowed upon my back;
    They lengthened their furrows.”
  • The Lord is righteous;
    he has cut the cords of the wicked.
  • The LORD is righteous;
    He has cut in two the cords of the wicked.
  • May all who hate Zion
    be put to shame and turned backward!
  • May all who hate Zion
    Be put to shame and turned backward;
  • Let them be like the grass on the housetops,
    which withers before it grows up,
  • Let them be like grass upon the housetops,
    Which withers before it grows up;
  • with which the reaper does not fill his hand
    nor the binder of sheaves his arms,
  • With which the reaper does not fill his hand,
    Or the binder of sheaves his bosom;
  • nor do those who pass by say,
    “The blessing of the Lord be upon you!
    We bless you in the name of the Lord!”
  • Nor do those who pass by say,
    “The blessing of the LORD be upon you;
    We bless you in the name of the LORD.”
