me.

The
plowmen
plowed
over my back ;
they made their furrows long
.

is righteous ;
He has

May
all who
hate
Zion be
turned
back
in
shame
.
Confounded
and
turn
backward
do
all hating
Zion.
May
they be
like
grass on
the rooftops
, which
withers
before it can
grow
,
They are
as
grass of
the roofs
, That
before it was
drawn
out
withereth
,
unable
to
fill
the hands
of the
reaper, or
the arms
of the
binder of sheaves.
That
hath
not
filled
the hand
of a
reaper, And
the bosom
of a
binder of sheaves.
May
none
who
pass
by say
to
them
, “
The blessing of the
LORD
be
on you ;
we bless
you in the name of the
LORD.”
And
the
passers
by have
not
said
, `
The blessing of Jehovah
`is'
on you ,
We blessed
you in the Name of Jehovah!'
