1
> Many times they have afflicted me from my youth up. Let Israel now say,
2
Many times they have afflicted me from my youth up, Yet they have not prevailed against me.
3
The plowers plowed on my back. They made their furrows long.
4
Yahweh is righteous. He has cut apart the cords of the wicked.
5
Let them be disappointed and turned backward, All those who hate Zion.
6
Let them be as the grass on the housetops, Which withers before it grows up;
7

8
Neither do those who go by say, "The blessing of Yahweh be on you. We bless you in the name of Yahweh."
