Psalms 129:6
King James Version
11 Jun 2026
“Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withereth afore it groweth up:”
הָיָה
I AM. Hayah. The self-existent one. When Moses asked God His name God said I AM THAT I AM. Not I was or I will be but I AM. Always present always existing always enough. Jesus used the same words: before Abraham was I AM.
