Psalm 129:6
“Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withereth afore it groweth up:”
KJV
Read in Psalm 129Meaning
Verse 6 develops the imprecation through an image of shallow-rooted vegetation exposed to heat. The desired reversal is fruitlessness: what threatens Zion will fail to establish a lasting harvest.
Read carefully
Read Psalm 129:6 inside its literary unit and the whole of Psalm 129; the verse does not support that overclaim.
Reflection
Pray that abusive systems lose roots, resources, and capacity to reproduce harm.
