Panalangin upang malupig ang kaaway ng Sion. Awit sa mga Pagsampa.

129 Madalas na ako'y dinalamhati nila mula sa (A)aking kabataan,
(B)Sabihin ngayon ng Israel,
Madalas na ako'y dinalamhati nila mula sa aking kabataan:
(C)Gayon ma'y hindi sila nanganaig laban sa akin.
Ang mga mangaararo ay nagsiararo (D)sa aking likod;
Kanilang pinahaba ang kanilang bungkal.
Ang Panginoon ay matuwid:
Kaniyang pinutol ang mga (E)panali ng masama.
Mapahiya sila at magsitalikod,
Silang lahat na nangagtatanim ng loob sa Sion.
Sila'y maging (F)parang damo sa mga bubungan,
Na natutuyo bago lumaki:
Na hindi pinupuno ng manggagapas ang kaniyang kamay niyaon,
Ni siyang nagtatali man ng mga bigkis, ang kaniyang sinapupunan.
Hindi man sinasabi ng nagsisipagdaan,
(G)Ang pagpapala ng Panginoon, ay sumainyo nawa;
Binabasbasan namin kayo sa pangalan ng Panginoon.

They Have Afflicted Me from My Youth

A Song of (A)Ascents.

129 “Greatly[a] have they (B)afflicted me (C)from my youth”—
    (D)let Israel now say—
“Greatly have they (E)afflicted me (F)from my youth,
    (G)yet they have not prevailed against me.
(H)The plowers plowed (I)upon my back;
    they made long their furrows.”
The Lord is righteous;
    he has cut (J)the cords of the wicked.
May all who hate Zion
    be (K)put to shame and turned backward!
Let them be like (L)the grass on the housetops,
    which (M)withers before it grows up,
with which the reaper does not fill his hand
    nor the binder of sheaves his arms,
nor do those who pass by say,
    (N)“The blessing of the Lord be upon you!
    We (O)bless you in the name of the Lord!”

  1. Psalm 129:1 Or Often; also verse 2

Psalm 129

A song of ascents.

“They have greatly oppressed(A) me from my youth,”(B)
    let Israel say;(C)
“they have greatly oppressed me from my youth,
    but they have not gained the victory(D) over me.
Plowmen have plowed my back
    and made their furrows long.
But the Lord is righteous;(E)
    he has cut me free(F) from the cords of the wicked.”(G)

May all who hate Zion(H)
    be turned back in shame.(I)
May they be like grass on the roof,(J)
    which withers(K) before it can grow;
a reaper cannot fill his hands with it,(L)
    nor one who gathers fill his arms.
May those who pass by not say to them,
    “The blessing of the Lord be on you;
    we bless you(M) in the name of the Lord.”
