¹ "Too often^[b] they have attacked me from my youth."
Let Israel say,
² "Too often^[c] they have attacked me from my youth,
yet they have not prevailed against me.
³ On my back plowmen have plowed.
They have made their furrows^[d] long."
⁴ Yahweh is righteous.
He has cut the ropes^[e] of the wicked.
⁵ Let all be put to shame and repulsed
who hate Zion.
⁶ Let them be like grass on the housetops,
that withers before it grows up,
⁷ with which a reaper cannot fill his hand,
nor the binder of sheaves his arms,^[f]
8 so that passersby do not say,
"The blessing of Yahweh be upon you.
We bless you in the name of Yahweh."
