Psalm 129תהלים קכ״ט

שִׁ֗יר הַֽמַּ֫עֲל֥וֹת רַ֭בַּת צְרָר֣וּנִי מִנְּעוּרַ֑י יֹֽאמַר־נָ֝א יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃

A Song of Ascents. 'Much have they afflicted me from my youth up', Let Israel now say;

רַ֭בַּת צְרָר֣וּנִי מִנְּעוּרָ֑י גַּ֝ם לֹא־יָ֥כְלוּ לִֽי׃

'Much have they afflicted me from my youth up; But they have not prevailed against me.

עַל־גַּ֭בִּי חָרְשׁ֣וּ חֹרְשִׁ֑ים הֶ֝אֱרִ֗יכוּ למענותם^{לְמַעֲנִיתָֽם}׃

The plowers plowed upon my back; They made long their furrows.

יְקוָ֥ק צַדִּ֑יק קִ֝צֵּ֗ץ עֲב֣וֹת רְשָׁעִֽים׃

The LORD is righteous; He hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked.'

יֵ֭בֹשׁוּ וְיִסֹּ֣גוּ אָח֑וֹר כֹּ֝֗ל שֹׂנְאֵ֥י צִיּֽוֹן׃

Let them be ashamed and turned backward, All they that hate Zion.

יִ֭הְיוּ כַּחֲצִ֣יר גַּגּ֑וֹת שֶׁקַּדְמַ֖ת שָׁלַ֣ף יָבֵֽשׁ׃

Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, Which withereth afore it springeth up;

שֶׁלֹּ֤א מִלֵּ֖א כַפּ֥וֹ קוֹצֵ֗ר וְחִצְנ֥וֹ מְעַמֵּֽר׃

Wherewith the reaper filleth not his hand, Nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom.

וְלֹ֤א אָֽמְר֨וּ הָעֹבְרִ֗ים בִּרְכַּֽת־יְקוָ֥ק אֲלֵיכֶ֑ם בֵּרַ֥כְנוּ אֶ֝תְכֶ֗ם בְּשֵׁ֣ם יְקוָֽק׃

Neither do they that go by say: ‘The blessing of the LORD be upon you; We bless you in the name of the LORD.'
