Yahweh Has Cut the Cords of the Wicked
A Song of Ascents.
1“ ▼▼Lit Much
Many times they have ▼▼Lit showed hostility toward
assailed me from my youth up,”Let Israel now say,

▼Lit Much
Many times they have ▼▼Lit showed hostility toward
assailed me from my youth up;Yet they have not prevailed against me.
3“The plowers plowed upon my back;
They lengthened their furrows.”
4Yahweh is righteous;
He has cut up the cords of the wicked.
5Let all who hate Zion
Be put to shame and turned backward;
6Let them be like grass upon the rooftops,
Which dries up before it ▼
▼Lit draws out
grows up;7With which the reaper does not fill his ▼
▼Lit palm
hand,Nor the binder of sheaves the fold of his garment;
8And those who pass by will not say,
“The blessing of Yahweh be upon you;
We bless you in the name of Yahweh.”
