3, 4. The ploughing is a figure of scourging, which most severe physical infliction aptly represents all kinds.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

129:1-4 The enemies of God's people have very barbarously endeavoured to wear out the saints of the Most High. But the church has been always graciously delivered. Christ has built his church upon a rock. And the Lord has many ways of disabling wicked men from doing the mischief they design against his church. The Lord is righteous in not suffering Israel to be ruined; he has promised to preserve a people to himself.


Psalm 129:2 "Many times they have persecuted me from my youth up; Yet they have not prevailed against me.
