*A song of ascents.*

## Text

[1] Many a time they have persecuted me from my youth—
let Israel now declare— [2] many a time they have persecuted me from my youth,
but they have not prevailed against me. [3] The plowmen plowed over my back;
they made their furrows long. [4] The LORD is righteous;
He has cut me from the cords of the wicked. [5] May all who hate Zion
be turned back in shame. [6] May they be like grass on the rooftops,
which withers before it can grow, [7] unable to fill the hands of the reaper,
or the arms of the binder of sheaves. [8] May none who pass by say to them,
“The blessing of the LORD be on you;
we bless you in the name of the LORD.”
