Psalms 129

NEW JERUSALEM	VULGATA
1 [Song of Ascents] Often as men have attacked me since I was young -- let Israel repeat it-	1 Canticum graduum. De profundis clamavi ad te, Domine ;
2 often as men have attacked me since I was young, they have never overcome me.	2 Domine, exaudi vocem meam. Fiant aures tuæ intendentes in vocem deprecationis meæ.
3 On my back ploughmen have set to work, making long furrows,	3 Si iniquitates observaveris, Domine, Domine, quis sustinebit ?
4 but Yahweh the upright has shattered the yoke of the wicked.	4 Quia apud te propitiatio est ; et propter legem tuam sustinui te, Domine. Sustinuit anima mea in verbo ejus :
5 Let al who hate Zion be thrown back in confusion,	5 speravit anima mea in Domino.
6 let them be like grass on a roof, dried up before it is cut,	6 A custodia matutina usque ad noctem, speret Israël in Domino.
7 never to fil the reaper's arm nor the binder's lap.	7 Quia apud Dominum misericordia, et copiosa apud eum redemptio.
8 And no passer-by wil say, 'The blessing of Yahweh be on you! 'We bless you in the name ofYahweh.'	8 Et ipse redimet Israël ex omnibus iniquitatibus ejus.
