*A song of ascents.*

1. Many times they have attacked me since my youth—let Israel now say—
2. many times they have attacked me since my youth, yet they have not overcome me.
3. Plowers plowed on my back; they made their furrows long.
4. Yahweh is righteous; he has cut the ropes of the wicked.
5. May all who hate Zion be put to shame and turned back.
6. May they be like grass on the rooftops, which withers before it can be pulled up,
7. with which the reaper does not fill his hand, nor the one who binds sheaves his arms,
8. and those who pass by do not say, “The blessing of Yahweh be on you! We bless you in the name of Yahweh.”
