Psalm 129:6-8

Revised Standard Version

⁶ Let them be like the grass on the housetops,
    which withers before it grows up,
⁷ with which the reaper does not fill his hand
    or the binder of sheaves his bosom,
⁸ while those who pass by do not say,
    “The blessing of the Lord be upon you!
    We bless you in the name of the Lord!”
