Many a time
רַ֭בַּת
have they afflicted
צְרָר֣וּנִי
me from my youth
מִנְּעוּרַ֑י
now say
יֹֽאמַר
 
נָ֝א
may Israel
יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃

Many a time
רַ֭בַּת
have they afflicted
צְרָר֣וּנִי
me from my youth
מִנְּעוּרָ֑י
 
גַּ֝ם
 
לֹא
yet they have not prevailed
יָ֥כְלוּ
 
לִֽי׃

עַל
upon my back
גַּ֭בִּי
The plowers
חֹרְשִׁ֑ים
The plowers
חֹרְשִׁ֑ים
they made long
הֶ֝אֱרִ֗יכוּ
their furrows
לְמַעֲנִותָֽם׃

The LORD
יְהוָ֥ה
is righteous
צַדִּ֑יק
he hath cut asunder
קִ֝צֵּ֗ץ
the cords
עֲב֣וֹת
of the wicked
רְשָׁעִֽים׃

Let them all be confounded
יֵ֭בֹשׁוּ
and turned
וְיִסֹּ֣גוּ
back
אָח֑וֹר
 
כֹּ֝֗ל
that hate
שֹׂנְאֵ֥י
Zion
צִיּֽוֹן׃

יִ֭הְיוּ
Let them be as the grass
כַּחֲצִ֣יר
upon the housetops
גַּגּ֑וֹת
afore
שֶׁקַּדְמַ֖ת
it groweth up
שָׁלַ֣ף
which withereth
יָבֵֽשׁ׃

שֶׁלֹּ֤א
filleth
מִלֵּ֖א
not his hand
כַפּ֥וֹ
Wherewith the mower
קוֹצֵ֗ר
his bosom
וְחִצְנ֥וֹ
nor he that bindeth sheaves
מְעַמֵּֽר׃

וְלֹ֤א
say
אָֽמְר֨וּ׀
Neither do they which go by
הָעֹבְרִ֗ים
The blessing
בִּרְכַּֽת
of the LORD
יְהוָֽה׃
 
אֲלֵיכֶ֑ם
be upon you we bless
בֵּרַ֥כְנוּ
 
אֶ֝תְכֶ֗ם
you in the name
בְּשֵׁ֣ם
of the LORD
יְהוָֽה׃
