New King James Version

New Living Translation

  • Song of Victory over Zion’s Enemies

    A Song of Ascents.

    “Many a time they have afflicted[a] me from my youth,”
    Let Israel now say —
  • A song for pilgrims ascending to Jerusalem.

    From my earliest youth my enemies have persecuted me.
    Let all Israel repeat this:
  • “Many a time they have afflicted me from my youth;
    Yet they have not prevailed against me.
  • From my earliest youth my enemies have persecuted me,
    but they have never defeated me.
  • The plowers plowed on my back;
    They made their furrows long.”
  • My back is covered with cuts,
    as if a farmer had plowed long furrows.
  • The Lord is righteous;
    He has cut in pieces the cords of the wicked.
  • But the LORD is good;
    he has cut me free from the ropes of the ungodly.
  • Let all those who hate Zion
    Be put to shame and turned back.
  • May all who hate Jerusalema
    be turned back in shameful defeat.
  • Let them be as the grass on the housetops,
    Which withers before it grows up,
  • May they be as useless as grass on a rooftop,
    turning yellow when only half grown,
  • With which the reaper does not fill his hand,
    Nor he who binds sheaves, his [b]arms.
  • ignored by the harvester,
    despised by the binder.
  • Neither let those who pass by them say,
    “The blessing of the Lord be upon you;
    We bless you in the name of the Lord!”
  • And may those who pass by
    refuse to give them this blessing:
    “The LORD bless you;
    we bless you in the LORD’s name.”
