1902 Rotherham's Emphasized Bible (EBR)

1 An exhortation to praise God for saving Israel in their great afflictions. 5 The haters of the Church are cursed.

129:1 ¶ [[A Song of Ascents.]] Many a time, have they harassed me from my youth, well may Israel say:

129:2 Many a time, have they harassed me from youth, yet have they not prevailed against me.

129:3 Upon my back, have ploughmen ploughed, They have lengthened their furrow!

129:4 Yahweh, is righteous, He hath cut asunder the cords of the lawless.

129:5 ¶ Let all who hate Zion, be ashamed and shrink back:

129:6 Let them become like the grass of housetops, which, before it is pulled up, hath withered;

129:7 Wherewith no reaper, hath filled his hand, nor binder, his bosom:

129:8 Neither have the passers-by ever said, The blessing of Yahweh, be unto you,—We have blessed you in the Name of Yahweh.
