The snares of the wicked

1
A song of degrees. They haue often times afflicted me from my youth (may Israel nowe say)
2
They haue often times afflicted me from my youth: but they could not preuaile against me.
3
The plowers plowed vpon my backe, and made long furrowes.
4
But the righteous Lord hath cut the cordes of the wicked.
5
They that hate Zion, shalbe all ashamed and turned backward.
6
They shalbe as the grasse on the house tops, which withereth afore it commeth forth.
7
Whereof the mower filleth not his hand, neither the glainer his lap:
8
Neither they, which go by, say, The blessing of the Lord be vpon you, or, We blesse you in the Name of the Lord.

The snares of the wicked

1
Many times they have afflicted me from my youth up. Let Israel now say:
2
many times they have afflicted me from my youth up, yet they have not prevailed against me.
3
The plowers plowed on my back. They made their furrows long.
4
The LORD is righteous. He has cut apart the cords of the wicked.
5
Let them be disappointed and turned backward, all those who hate Zion.
6
Let them be as the grass on the housetops, which withers before it grows up,
7
with which the reaper doesn’t fill his hand, nor he who binds sheaves, his bosom.
8
Neither do those who go by say,The blessing of the LORD be on you. We bless you in the LORD’s name.”
