1a~~{Title}'A

the next step - a step at a time
it is literally translated 'A Song of Degrees'}
1b-2``Since
my youth, they have often assailed me . . .
let
Israel now declare, 2``
"since
my youth they have often assailed me . . .
but
they have never overcome me.
3``Plowmen
plowed across my back . . .
they
made long furrows.
4~~Jehovah/God is righteous.
He has cut in two the cords of the wicked.
5~~Let all who hate Zion be put to shame and turned backwards.
{Note: God never overlooks Anti-Semitism and always punishes it.}
6-8``Let
them be like the grass on the roofs . . .
that
fades before it can be pulled up . . . 7``
that
affords no handful for the reaper . . .
no
armful for the gatherer of sheaves . . .8``
no
exchange with passerby:
"The
blessing of Jehovah/God be upon you."
We bless you by the Name of Jehovah/God.
