Psalms 129

1 A Song of Ascents. Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth up, let Israel now say;

今イスラエルはいふべし彼等はしばしば我をわかきときより惱めたり

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

かれらはしばしば我をわかきときより惱めたり されどわれに勝ことを得ざりき

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

耕すものはわが背をたがへしてその畎をながくせり

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

ヱホバは義し あしきものの繩をたちたまへり

5 Let them be ashamed and turned backward, all they that hate Zion.

シオンをにくむ者はみな恥をおびてしりぞかせらるべし

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

かれらは長たざるさきにかるる屋上の草のごとし

7 Wherewith the reaper filleth not his hand, nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom.

これを刈るものはその手にみたず 之をつかぬるものはその束ふところに盈ざるなり

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.

かたはらを過るものはヱホバの惠なんぢの上にあれといはず われらヱホバの名によりてなんぢらを祝すといはず
