Psalm 129:4 in context

The verses around it, from Psalm 129.

1 A song of ascents. Many a time they have persecuted me from my youth—let Israel now declare—

2 many a time they have persecuted me from my youth, but they have not prevailed against me.

3 The plowmen plowed over my back; they made their furrows long.

4 The LORD is righteous; He has cut me from the cords of the wicked.

5 May all who hate Zion be turned back in shame.

6 May they be like grass on the rooftops, which withers before it can grow,

7 unable to fill the hands of the reaper, or the arms of the binder of sheaves.

8 May none who pass by say to them, “The blessing of the LORD be on you; we bless you in the name of the LORD.”
