Psalms 128

¹ Often have they fought against me from my youth, let Israel now say.

² Often have they fought against me from my youth: but they could not prevail over me.

³ The wicked have wrought upon my back: they have lengthened their iniquity.

⁴ The Lord who is just will cut the necks of sinners:

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

⁶ Let them be as grass on the tops of houses: which withered before it be plucked up:

⁷ Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand: nor he that gathereth sheaves his bosom.

⁸ And they that have passed by have not said: The blessing of the Lord be upon you: we have blessed you in the name of the Lord. Book of Psalms next > Psalm 128 next > TOP OF PAGE side_ads("../") var sc_project = 12672635; var sc_invisible = 1; var sc_security = "b8696459";
