Lyrics

‘Often they've afflicted me from my youth’
—Let Israel now say—
‘Often they've afflicted me from my youth,
Yet they have not prevailed against me.
Mmmm

The ploughman, well, he ploughed upon my back;
Hmmm
The ploughman, well, he ploughed upon my back;
He made his furrows long.’
Hmmm

Let them be like grass on the roof
Which withers before it grows;
The reaper unable to fill his hand,
Unable to fill his arms;
Neither do they who pass by say,
‘We bless you in the name of the Lord!’

Solo

The Lord's just: he has cut the cords of the wicked.
Bu duh uh duh duh duh
The Lord's just: he has cut the cords of the wicked.
May all who hate Zion be shamed, and turned back.
May all who hate Zion be shamed
And turn back.
