129Psalms · Good News Translation (1992)

¹Israel, tell us how your enemies have persecuted you ever since you were young.

²“Ever since I was young, my enemies have persecuted me cruelly, but they have not overcome me.

³They cut deep wounds in my back and made it like a plowed field.

⁴But the Lord, the righteous one, has freed me from slavery.”

⁵May everyone who hates Zion be defeated and driven back.

⁶May they all be like grass growing on the housetops, which dries up before it can grow;

⁷no one gathers it up or carries it away in bundles.

⁸No one who passes by will say, “May the Lord bless you! We bless you in the name of the Lord.”
