Psalms 35

A Psalm of David.

1

Contendh7378, O LORDh3068, with those who  acontendh3401 with me; Fighth3898a againsth854 those who  bfighth3898a against me.

2

Takeh2388 holdh2388 of  1 abucklerh4043 and shieldh6793c And riseh6965 up for  bmy helph5833.

3

Drawh7385a also the spearh2595 and  1the battle-axeh5462 to meeth7122 those who pursueh7291 me; Sayh559 to my soulh5315, "I am  ayour salvationh3444."

4

Let those be  aashamedh954 and dishonoredh3637 who seekh1245 my  1lifeh5315; Let those be  bturnedh5472 backh268 and humiliatedh3637 who deviseh2803 evilh7463a against me.

5

Let them be  alike chaffh4671b beforeh6440 the windh7307, With the angelh4397 of the LORDh3068 drivingh1760 them on.

6

Let their wayh1870 be darkh2822 and  aslipperyh2519, With the angelh4397 of the LORDh3068 pursuingh7291 them.

7

For  awithouth2600 causeh2600 they  bhidh2934 their neth7568 for me; Withouth2600 causeh2600 they dugh2658 a  1pith7845 for my soulh5315.

8

Let  adestructionh7724b comeh935 upon him unawaresh3808h3045, And  blet the neth7568 whichh834 he hidh2934 catchh3920 himself; Into that very  cdestructionh7724b let him fallh5307.

9

And my soulh5315 shall  arejoiceh1523 in the LORDh3068; It shall  bexulth7797 in His salvationh3444.

10

Allh3605 my  abonesh6106 will sayh559, "LORDh3068,  bwhoh4310 is likeh3644 You, Who deliversh5337 the afflictedh6041 from him  cwhoh2389 is tooh4480 strongh2389 for him, And  dthe afflictedh6041 and the needyh34 from him who robsh1497 him?"

11

 aMalicioush2555 witnessesh5707 riseh6965 up; They askh7592 me of things that I do not knowh3045.

12

They  arepayh7999a me evilh7463a for goodh2899b, To the bereavementh7908 of my soulh5315.

13

But as for me,  awhen they were sickh2470a, my  bclothingh3830 was sackclothh8242; I  chumbledh6031a my soulh5315 with fastingh6685, And my  dprayerh8605 kept returningh7725 to my bosomh2436.

14

I wenth1980 about as though it were my friendh7453 or brotherh251; I  abowedh7817 downh7817  1mourningh6937, as oneh57 whoh57 sorrowsh57 for a motherh517.

15

But  aat my  1stumblingh6761 they rejoicedh8055 and gatheredh622 themselves together; The  2 bsmitersh5222 whom I did not knowh3045 gatheredh622 together againsth5921 me, They  3 cslanderedh7167 me withouth3808 ceasingh1826a.

16

Like godlessh2611 jestersh3934 at a feasth4580, They  agnashedh2786 at me with their teethh8127.

17

Lordh136,  ahowh4100 longh4100 will You lookh7200 on? Rescueh7725 my soulh5315  bfrom their ravagesh7722, My  conlyh3173 life from the lionsh3715.

18

I will  agiveh3034 You thanksh3034 in the greath7227a congregationh6951; I will  bpraiseh1984b You among a mightyh6099 throngh5971a.

19

 aDo not let those who are wrongfullyh8267  bmy enemiesh340 rejoiceh8055 over me; Nor let those  cwho hateh8130 me withouth2600 causeh2600  1 dwinkh7169 maliciouslyh7169h5869.

20

For they do not speakh1696 peaceh7965, But they deviseh2803  adeceitfulh4820 wordsh1697 againsth5921 those whoh7282 are quieth7282 in the landh776.

21

They  aopenedh7337 their mouthh6310 wideh7337 againsth5921 me; They saidh559, " bAhah1889, ahah1889, our eyesh5869 have seenh7200 it!"

22

 aYou have seenh7200 it, O LORDh3068,  bdo not keeph2790b silenth2790b; O Lordh136,  cdo not be farh7368 from me.

23

 aStirh5782 up Yourself, and awakeh7019a to my righth4941 And to my causeh7379, my Godh430 and my Lordh136.

24

 aJudgeh8199 me, O LORDh3068 my Godh430, according to Your righteousnessh6664, And  bdo not let them rejoiceh8055 over me.

25

Do not let them sayh559 in their hearth3820, " aAhah1889, our desireh5315!" Do not let them sayh559, "We have  bswallowedh1104 him up!"

26

Let  athose be ashamedh954 and humiliatedh2659 altogetherh3164a who rejoiceh8056 at my distressh7463a; Let those be  bclothedh3847 with shameh1322 and dishonorh3639 who  cmagnifyh1431 themselves overh5921 me.

27

Let them  ashouth7442 for joyh7442 and rejoiceh8055, whoh2655 favorh2655  bmy vindicationh6664; And  clet them sayh559 continuallyh8548, "The LORDh3068 be magnifiedh1431, Whoh2655  ddelightsh2655 in the prosperityh7965 of His servanth5650."

28

And  amy tongueh3956 shall declareh1897 Your righteousnessh6664 And Your praiseh8416 allh3605 dayh3117 long.
