1. Oft did they vex me from my youth,may Isr'el now declare;
2. Oft did they vex me from my youth,yet not victorious were.
3. The plowers plow'd upon my back;they long their furrows drew.
4. The righteous Lord did cut the cordsof the ungodly crew.
5. Let Sion's haters all be turn'dback with confusion.
