Prayer for the Overthrow of Zion’s Enemies.
A Song of Ascents.
“Many times they have apersecuted me from my byouth up,”
cLet Israel now say,
2 “Many times they have persecuted me from my youth up;
Yet they have anot prevailed against me.
3 “The plowers plowed upon my back;
They lengthened their furrows.”
4 The Lord ais righteous;
He has cut in two the bcords of the wicked.
5 May all who ahate Zion
Be bput to shame and turned backward;
6 Let them be like agrass upon the housetops,
Which withers before it grows up;
7 With which the reaper does not fill his hand,
Or the binder of sheaves his abosom;
8 Nor do those who pass by say,
“The ablessing of the Lord be upon you;
We bless you in the name of the Lord.”
