Psalmi 128

VULGATA	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Canticum graduum. Sæpe expugnaverunt me a juventute mea, dicat nunc Israël ;	1 A Canticle in steps. They have often fought against me from my youth, let Israel now say:
2 sæpe expugnaverunt me a juventute mea : etenim non potuerunt mihi.	2 they have often fought against me from my youth, yet they could not prevail over me.
3 Supra dorsum meum fabricaverunt peccatores ; prolongaverunt iniquitatem suam.	3 The sinners have made fabrications behind my back. They have prolonged their iniquity.
4 Dominus justus concidit cervices peccatorum.	4 The just Lord will cut the necks of sinners.
5 Confundantur, et convertantur retrorsum omnes qui oderunt Sion.	5 Let all those who hate Zion be confounded and turned backwards.
6 Fiant sicut f?num tectorum, quod priusquam evellatur exaruit :	6 Let them be like grass on the rooftops, which withers before it can be pulled up:
7 de quo non implevit manum suam qui metit, et sinum suum qui manipulos colligit.	7 with it, he who reaps does not fill his hand and he who gathers sheaves does not fill his bosom.
8 Et non dixerunt qui præteribant : Benedictio Domini super vos. Benediximus vobis in nomine Domini.	8 And those who were passing by have not said to them: “The blessing of the Lord be upon you. We have blessed you in the name of the Lord.”
