Textus Receptus Bibles
Young's Literal Translation 1862
129:1 | A Song of the Ascents. Often they distressed me from my youth, Pray, let Israel say: |
129:2 | Often they distressed me from my youth, Yet they have not prevailed over me. |
129:3 | Over my back have ploughers ploughed, They have made long their furrows. |
129:4 | Jehovah `is' righteous, He hath cut asunder cords of the wicked. |
129:5 | Confounded and turn backward do all hating Zion. |
129:6 | They are as grass of the roofs, That before it was drawn out withereth, |
129:7 | That hath not filled the hand of a reaper, And the bosom of a binder of sheaves. |
129:8 | And the passers by have not said, `The blessing of Jehovah `is' on you, We blessed you in the Name of Jehovah!' |
Young's Literal Translation 1862
Young's Literal Translation is a translation of the Bible into English, published in 1862. The translation was made by Robert Young, compiler of Young's Analytical Concordance to the Bible and Concise Critical Comments on the New Testament. Young used the Textus Receptus and the Majority Text as the basis for his translation. He wrote in the preface to the first edition, "It has been no part of the Translator's plan to attempt to form a New Hebrew or Greek Text--he has therefore somewhat rigidly adhered to the received ones."
