Psaumes 129.4
New International Version

Jugement des oppresseurs

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 a reaper cannot fill his hands with it,
nor one who gathers fill his arms.

⁸ May those who pass by not say to them,
“The blessing of the Lord be on you;
we bless you in the name of the Lord.”
