1	A SONG OF ASCENTS. “Greatly have they afflicted me from my youth”- let Israel now say-
2	“Greatly have they afflicted me from my youth, yet they have not prevailed against me.
3	The plowers plowed upon my back; they made long their furrows.“
4	The LORD is righteous; he has cut the cords of the wicked.
5	May all who hate Zion be put to shame and turned backward!
6	Let them be like the grass on the housetops, which withers before it grows up,
7	with which the reaper does not fill his hand nor the binder of sheaves his arms,
8	nor do those who pass by say, “The blessing of the LORD be upon you! We bless you in the name of the LORD!”

1	They have greatly oppressed me from my youth- let Israel say-
2	they have greatly oppressed me from my youth, but they have not gained the victory over me.
3	Plowmen have plowed my back and made their furrows long.
4	But the LORD is righteous; he has cut me free 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 roof, which withers before it can grow;
7	with it the reaper cannot fill his hands, nor the one who gathers fill his arms.
8	May those who pass by not say, “The blessing of the LORD be upon you; we bless you in the name of the LORD.”

1	From my earliest youth my enemies have persecuted me. Let all Israel repeat this:
2	From my earliest youth my enemies have persecuted me, but they have never defeated me.
3	My back is covered with cuts, as if a farmer had plowed long furrows.
4	But the LORD is good; he has cut me free from the ropes of the ungodly.
5	May all who hate Jerusalem be turned back in shameful defeat.
6	May they be as useless as grass on a rooftop, turning yellow when only half grown,
7	ignored by the harvester, despised by the binder.
8	And may those who pass by refuse to give them this blessing: “The LORD bless you; we bless you in the LORD's name.” A song for pilgrims ascending to Jerusalem.

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 upon my back: they made long their furrows.
4	The LORD is righteous: he hath 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 upon the housetops, which withereth afore it groweth up:
7	Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand; nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom.
8	Neither do they which go by say, The blessing of the LORD be upon you: we bless you in the name of the LORD.
