Psalms 129

Ge'ez original · 6 verses · some words can be tapped for a gloss

← ch. 128ch. 130 →
📖 This chapter exists in 3 other originals — side by side (Hebrew Old Testament, Septuagint, Vulgate)
⚠️ Psalms use Masoretic (Hebrew) numbering, which differs from printed Vulgate and Septuagint editions: Ps 129 here = Ps 128 in print. Convert before citing a printed edition.
ℹ️ This corpus has no morphological tagging. Glosses are matched by word form against a dictionary — a match does not prove it is the same word (an inflected form can coincide with another word’s lemma). Verify against the original and a specialist lexicon where precision matters.
⚠️ The Chinese and English alongside are the CUV and the WEB, both translated from the Masoretic Text; they follow a different textual tradition from the Greek and Latin shown here and will disagree in places.

129:3
ማኅሌት ፡ ዘበመዓርጊሁ ። ዘልፈ ፡ ይፀብኡኒ ፡ እምንእስየ ፤ ይብል ፡ እስራኤል ።
The plowers plowed on my back. They made their furrows long.
如同扶犂的在我背上扶犂而耕, 耕的犂溝甚長。
129:4
ዘልፈ ፡ ይፀብኡኒ ፡ እምንእስየ ፤ ወባሕቱ ፡ ኢክህሉኒ ።
Yahweh is righteous. He has cut apart the cords of the wicked.
耶和華是公義的; 他砍斷了惡人的繩索。
129:5
ዲበ ፡ ዘባንየ ፡ ዘበጡ ፡ ኃጥኣን ፤ ወአስተርሐቅዋ ፡ ለኃጢአቶሙ ።
Let them be disappointed and turned backward, all those who hate Zion.
願恨惡錫安的都蒙羞退後!
129:6
እግዚአብሔር ፡ ጻድቅ ፡ ሰበረ ፡ አሕዳፊሆሙ ፡ ለኃጥኣን ። ይትኀፈሩ ፡ ወይግብኡ ፡ ድኅሬሆሙ ፤ ኵሎሙ ፡ እለ ፡ ይጸልእዋ ፡ ለጽዮን ።
Let them be as the grass on the housetops, which withers before it grows up,
願他們像房頂上的草, 未長成而枯乾,
129:7
ወይኩኑ ፡ ከመ ፡ ሣዕረ ፡ አንሕስት ፤ ወይየብስ ፡ ዘእንበለ ፡ ይምሐውዎ ።
with which the reaper doesn’t fill his hand, nor he who binds sheaves, his bosom.
收割的不夠一把, 捆禾的也不滿懷。
129:8
ወኢይመልእ ፡ እዴሁ ፡ ለዘ ፡ የዐፅዶ ፤ ወኢሕፅኖ ፡ ለዘ ፡ ያስተጋብእ ፡ ከላስስቲሁ ። ወኢይበሉ ፡ እለ ፡ የኀልፉ ፡ በረከተ ፡ እግዚአብሔር ፡ ምስሌሆሙ ፤ ባረክናክሙ ፡ በስመ ፡ እግዚአብሔር ።
Neither do those who go by say, “The blessing of Yahweh be on you. We bless you in Yahweh’s name.”
過路的也不說: 願耶和華所賜的福歸與你們! 我們奉耶和華的名給你們祝福!
