1 Since the time I was young,enemies have often attacked!Let everyone in Israel say:
2 “Since the time I was young,enemies have often attacked!But they have not defeated me,
3 though my back is like a fieldthat has just been ploughed.”
4 The Lord always does right,and he has set me freefrom the ropesof those cruel people.
5 I pray that all who hatethe city of Zionwill be made ashamedand forced to turn and run.
