A song for pilgrims ascending to Jerusalem.
From my earliest youth my enemies have persecuted me.
Let all Israel repeat this:
From my earliest youth my enemies have persecuted me.
Let all Israel repeat this:
Many Times They Have Afflicted Me
{A Song of degrees.} Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth, may Israel now say:
{A Song of degrees.} Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth, may Israel now say:
From my earliest youth my enemies have persecuted me,
but they have never defeated me.
but they have never defeated me.
Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth: yet they have not prevailed against me.
My back is covered with cuts,
as if a farmer had plowed long furrows.
as if a farmer had plowed long furrows.
The plowers plowed upon my back: they made long their furrows.
But the LORD is good;
he has cut me free from the ropes of the ungodly.
he has cut me free from the ropes of the ungodly.
The LORD is righteous: he hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked.
Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion.
May they be as useless as grass on a rooftop,
turning yellow when only half grown,
turning yellow when only half grown,
Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withereth afore it groweth up:
ignored by the harvester,
despised by the binder.
despised by the binder.
Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand; nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom.
