1 שִׁ֗יר הַֽמַּ֫עֲל֥וֹת רַ֭בַּת צְרָר֣וּנִי מִנְּעוּרַ֑י יֹֽאמַר־ נָ֝א יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ “Greatly have they afflicted me from my youth”— let Israel now say— A song of ascents. “They have greatly oppressed me from my youth,” let Israel say;
2 רַ֭בַּת צְרָר֣וּנִי מִנְּעוּרָ֑י גַּ֝ם לֹא־ יָ֥כְלוּ לִֽי׃ “Greatly have they afflicted me from my youth, yet they have not prevailed against me. “they have greatly oppressed me from my youth, but they have not gained the victory over me.
3 עַל־ גַּ֭בִּי חָרְשׁ֣וּ חֹרְשִׁ֑ים הֶ֝אֱרִ֗יכוּ [למענותם] (לְמַעֲנִיתָֽם׃) The plowers plowed upon my back; they made long their furrows.” Plowmen have plowed my back and made their furrows long.
4 יְהוָ֥ה צַדִּ֑יק קִ֝צֵּ֗ץ עֲב֣וֹת רְשָׁעִֽים׃ The LORD is righteous; he has cut the cords of the wicked. But the LORD is righteous; he has cut me free from the cords of the wicked.”
5 יֵ֭בֹשׁוּ וְיִסֹּ֣גוּ אָח֑וֹר כֹּ֝֗ל שֹׂנְאֵ֥י צִיּֽוֹן׃ May all who hate Zion be put to shame and turned backward! May all who hate Zion be turned back in shame.
6 יִ֭הְיוּ כַּחֲצִ֣יר גַּגּ֑וֹת שֶׁקַּדְמַ֖ת שָׁלַ֣ף יָבֵֽשׁ׃ Let them be like the grass on the housetops, which withers before it grows up, May they be like grass on the roof, which withers before it can grow;
7 שֶׁלֹּ֤א מִלֵּ֖א כַפּ֥וֹ קוֹצֵ֗ר וְחִצְנ֥וֹ מְעַמֵּֽר׃ with which the reaper does not fill his hand nor the binder of sheaves his arms, a reaper cannot fill his hands with it, nor one who gathers fill his arms.
8 וְלֹ֤א אָֽמְר֨וּ ׀ הָעֹבְרִ֗ים בִּרְכַּֽת־ יְהוָ֥ה אֲלֵיכֶ֑ם בֵּרַ֥כְנוּ אֶ֝תְכֶ֗ם בְּשֵׁ֣ם יְהוָֽה׃ nor do those who pass by say, “The blessing of the LORD be upon you! We bless you in the name of the LORD!” 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.”
