Let all those who hate Zion
Be put to shame and turned back.
Let them be as the (A)grass on the housetops,
Which withers before it grows up,
With which the reaper does not fill his hand,
Nor he who binds sheaves, his [a]arms.
Neither let those who pass by them say,
(B)“The blessing of the Lord be upon you;
We bless you in the name of the Lord!”
