Psalms 129

1 A song of ascents. ‘Sore have they vexed me from youth’ thus let Israel say

上行之诗。 以色列当说：从我幼年以来， 敌人屡次苦害我，

2 ‘Sore have they vexed me from youth, but they have not prevailed against me.

从我幼年以来，敌人屡次苦害我， 却没有胜了我。

3 ‘The ploughers ploughed on my back, they made their furrows long.

如同扶犁的在我背上扶犁而耕， 耕的犁沟甚长。

4 But the Lord, who is righteous, has cut the cords of the wicked.’

耶和华是公义的； 他砍断了恶人的绳索。

5 Let all who are haters of Zion be put to shame and defeated.

愿恨恶锡安的都蒙羞退后！

6 May they be as the grass on the house-top, which withers before it shoots up;

愿他们像房顶上的草， 未长成而枯干，

7 which fills not the arms of the reaper, nor the lap of the binder of sheaves

收割的不够一把， 捆禾的也不满怀。

8 whereof no one says as they pass, ‘The blessing of God be upon you.’ In the name of the Lord we bless you.

过路的也不说： 愿耶和华所赐的福归与你们！ 我们奉耶和华的名给你们祝福！
