Tehillim 129
129
(Shir HaMa'alot)
1Many a time have they afflicted me from my ne'ur, may Yisroel now say;
2Many a time have they afflicted me from my ne'ur (youth); yet they have not prevailed against me.
3The choreshim (plowers) plowed upon my back; they made long their furrows.
4 Hashem is tzaddik; He hath cut asunder the cords of the resha'im.
5Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Tziyon.#129:5 i.e, all anti-Semites
6Let them be as the khatzir (grass) upon the housetops, which withereth before it groweth up;
7With it the kotzer (reaper) filleth not his yad; nor he that gathereth sheaves, his bosom.
8Neither do they which go by say, Birkat Hashem be upon you; we bless you b'Shem Hashem.
