128
1 A Song of Degrees.
Many a time have they warred against me from my youth,
Let Israel now say:
2 Many a time have they warred against me from my youth:
And yet they prevailed not against me.
3 The sinners wrought upon my back:
They prolonged their iniquity.
4 The righteous Lord has cut asunder the necks of sinners.
5 Let all that hate Zion
Be put to shame and turned back.
6 Let them be as the grass of the housetops,
Which withers before it is plucked up.
7 Wherewith the reaper fills not his hand,
Nor he that makes up the sheaves, his bosom.
8 Neither do they that go by say, The blessing of the Lord be upon you:
We have blessed you in the name of the Lord.
