Many Times They Have Afflicted Me
{A Song of degrees.} Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth, may Israel now say:
{A Song of degrees.} Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth, may Israel now say:
“Greatly have they afflicted me from my youth,
yet they have not prevailed against me.
yet they have not prevailed against me.
Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth: yet they have not prevailed against me.
The plowers plowed upon my back;
they made long their furrows.”
they made long their furrows.”
The plowers plowed upon my back: they made long their furrows.
The Lord is righteous;
he has cut the cords of the wicked.
he has cut the cords of the wicked.
The LORD is righteous: he hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked.
May all who hate Zion
be put to shame and turned backward!
be put to shame and turned backward!
Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion.
Let them be like the grass on the housetops,
which withers before it grows up,
which withers before it grows up,
Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withereth afore it groweth up:
with which the reaper does not fill his hand
nor the binder of sheaves his arms,
nor the binder of sheaves his arms,
Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand; nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom.
