 1 Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth, may Israel now say:*

 2 Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth: yet they have not prevailed against me.*

 3 The plowers plowed upon my back: they made long their furrows.

 4 The LORD *is* righteous: he hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked.

 5 Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion.

 6 Let them be as the grass *upon* the housetops, which withereth afore it groweth up:

 7 Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand; nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom.

 8 Neither do they which go by say, The blessing of the LORD *be* upon you: we bless you in the name of the LORD.
 
[Psalms 128](/study/psalms/128) [Psalms 130](/study/psalms/130)
