1A song of ascents. "Since my youth they have often attacked me," let Israel say. 1A Song of degrees. Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth, may Israel now say:
2"Since my youth they have often attacked me, but they have not defeated me. 2Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth: yet they have not prevailed against me.
3The plowers plowed my back; they made their furrows long. 3The plowers plowed upon my back: they made long their furrows.
4The LORD is just; he cut the ropes of the wicked." 4The LORD is righteous: he hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked.
5May all who hate Zion be humiliated and turned back! 5Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion.
6May they be like the grass on the rooftops which withers before one can even pull it up, 6Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withereth afore it groweth up:
7which cannot fill the reaper's hand, or the lap of the one who gathers the grain! 7Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand; nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom.
8Those who pass by will not say, "May you experience the LORD's blessing! We pronounce a blessing on you in the name of the LORD." 8Neither do they which go by say, The blessing of the LORD be upon you: we bless you in the name of the LORD.
