## Yahweh Has Cut the Cords of the Wicked ###### 1 "Many times they have assailed me from my youth up," Let Israel now say, ###### 2 "Many times they have assailed me from my youth up; Yet they have not prevailed against me. ###### 3 The plowers plowed upon my back; They lengthened their furrows." ###### 4 Yahweh is righteous; He has cut up the cords of the wicked. ###### 5 Let all who hate Zion Be put to shame and turned backward; ###### 6 Let them be like grass upon the rooftops, Which dries up before it grows up; ###### 7 With which the reaper does not fill his hand, Nor the binder of sheaves the fold of his garment; ###### 8 And those who pass by will not say, "The blessing of Yahweh be upon you; We bless you in the name of Yahweh."
