Psalm 129 | English Standard Version

They Have Afflicted Me from My Youth

1 A Song of Ascents. “Greatly* have they afflicted me from my youth”— let Israel now say— 2 “Greatly have they afflicted me from my youth, yet they have not prevailed against me. 3 The plowers plowed upon my back; they made long their furrows.” 4 The Lord is righteous; he has cut the cords of the wicked. 5 May all who hate Zion be put to shame and turned backward! 6 Let them be like the grass on the housetops, which withers before it grows up, 7 with which the reaper does not fill his hand nor the binder of sheaves his arms, 8 nor do those who pass by say, “The blessing of the Lord be upon you! We bless you in the name of the Lord!”

Segond 21

Jugement des oppresseurs

1 Chant des montées. On m'a souvent combattu depuis ma jeunesse – qu'Israël le dise – 2 on m'a souvent combattu depuis ma jeunesse, mais on ne m'a pas vaincu. 3 Des laboureurs ont labouré mon dos, ils y ont tracé de longs sillons. 4 L'Eternel est juste: il a coupé les cordes de ces méchants. 5 Qu'ils soient couverts de honte et qu'ils reculent, tous ceux qui détestent Sion! 6 Qu'ils soient comme l'herbe des toits qui sèche avant qu'on l'arrache: 7 le moissonneur n'en remplit pas sa main, celui qui lie les gerbes n'en fait pas une brassée 8 et les passants ne disent pas: «Que la bénédiction de l'Eternel soit sur vous!» Nous vous bénissons au nom de l'Eternel!
