Song of Victory over Zion’s Enemies
Song of Ascents.
1 "Many a time they have Ps. 125:5afflicted me from (Jer. 1:19; 15:20); Matt. 16:18; 2 Cor. 4:8, 9my youth,"
Ezek. 23:3; Hos. 2:15Let Israel now say—
2 "Many a time they have afflicted me from my youth;
Yet they have not prevailed against me.
3 The plowers plowed on my back;
They made their furrows long."
4 The Lordis righteous;
He has cut in pieces the cords of the wicked.
5 Let all those who hate Zion
Be put to shame and turned back.
6 Let them be as the Ps. 124:1grass on the housetops,
Which withers before it grows up,
7 With which the reaper does not fill his hand,
Nor he who binds sheaves, his arms.
8 Neither let those who pass by them say,
Ps. 37:2"The blessing of the Lordbe upon you;
We bless you in the name of the Lord!"
