Psalms 129

1 A Song of degrees. Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth, may Israel now say:

Mnogo mi dosaðivaše od mladosti moje, neka reèe Izrailj,

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

Mnogo mi dosaðivaše od mladosti moje, ali me ne svladaše.

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

Na leðima mojim oraše oraèi, i vodiše duge brazde svoje.

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

Gospod je pravedan; isijeèe konopce bezbožnièke.

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

Postidjeæe se, odbiæe se svi koji nenavide Sion.

6 Let them be as the grass [upon] the house-tops, which withereth before it groweth up:

Biæe kao trava na krovovima, koja se sasušuje prije nego se poèupa,

7 With which the mower filleth not his hand; nor he that bindeth sheaves, his bosom.

Od koje neæe žetelac napuniti ruke svoje, niti naruèja svojega vezilac;

8 Neither do they who go by, say, The blessing of the LORD [be] upon you: we bless you in the name of the LORD.

I koji prolaze neæe reæi: “Blagoslov Gospodnji na vama! blagosiljamo vas imenom Gospodnjim.”
