American King James Version

1 Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth, may Israel now say:

2 Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth: yet they have not prevailed against me.

3 The plowers plowed on my back: they made long their furrows.

4 The LORD is righteous: he has cut asunder the cords of the wicked.

5 Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion.

6 Let them be as the grass on the housetops, which wither before it grows up:

7 With which the mower fills not his hand; nor he that binds sheaves his bosom.

8 Neither do they which go by say, The blessing of the LORD be on you: we bless you in the name of the LORD.
