Psalms 35

1 A Psalm of David. Strive^H3401 thou, O Jehovah^H3068, with them that strive^H3401 with me: Fight^H3898 thou against them that fight^H3898 against me. 2Take hold^H2388 of shield^H4043 and buckler^H6793, And stand up^H6965 for my help^H5833. 3Draw out^H7324 also the spear^H2595, and stop^H5462 the way against^H7125 them that pursue^H7291 me: Say^H559 unto my soul^H5315, I am thy salvation^H3444. 4Let them be put to shame^H954 and brought to dishonor^H3637 that seek^H1245 after my soul^H5315: Let them be turned^H5472 back^H268 and confounded^H2659 that devise^H2803 my hurt^H7451. 5Let them be as chaff^H4671 before^H6440 the wind^H7307, And the angel^H4397 of Jehovah^H3068 driving^H1760 them on. 6Let their way^H1870 be dark^H2822 and slippery^H2519, And the angel^H4397 of Jehovah^H3068 pursuing^H7291 them. 7For without cause^H2600 have they hid^H2934 for me their net^H7568 in a pit^H7845; Without cause^H2600 have they digged^H2658 a pit for my soul^H5315. 8Let destruction^H7722 come^H935 upon him unawares^H3045; And let his net^H7568 that he hath hid^H2934 catch^H3920 himself: With destruction^H7722 let him fall^H5307 therein. 9And my soul^H5315 shall be joyful^H1523 in Jehovah^H3068: It shall rejoice^H7797 in his salvation^H3444. 10All my bones^H6106 shall say^H559, Jehovah^H3068, who is like unto thee, Who deliverest^H5337 the poor^H6041 from him that is too strong^H2389 for him, Yea, the poor^H6041 and the needy^H34 from him that robbeth^H1497 him? 11Unrighteous^H2555 witnesses^H5707 rise up^H6965; They ask me of things^H7592 that I know^H3045 not. 12They reward^H7999 me evil^H7451 for good^H2896, To the bereaving^H7908 of my soul^H5315. 13But as for me, when they were sick^H2470, my clothing^H3830 was sackcloth^H8242: I afflicted^H6031 my soul^H5315 with fasting^H6685; And my prayer^H8605 returned^H7725 into mine own bosom^H2436. 14I behaved^H1980 myself as though it had been my friend^H7453 or my brother^H251: I bowed down^H7817 mourning^H6937, as one that bewaileth^H57 his mother^H517. 15But in mine adversity^H6761 they rejoiced^H8055, and gathered themselves together^H622: The abjects^H5222 gathered themselves together^H622 against me, and I knew^H3045 it not; They did tear^H7167 me, and ceased^H1826 not: 16Like the profane^H2611 mockers^H3934 in feasts^H4580, They gnashed^H2786 upon me with their teeth^H8127. 17Lord^H136, how long wilt thou look on^H7200? Rescue^H7725 my soul^H5315 from their destructions^H7722, My darling^H3173 from the lions^H3715. 18I will give thee thanks^H3034 in the great^H7227 assembly^H6951: I will praise^H1984 thee among much^H6099 people^H5971. 19Let not them that are mine enemies^H341 wrongfully^H8267 rejoice^H8055 over me; Neither let them wink^H7169 with the eye^H5869 that hate^H8130 me without a cause^H2600. 20For they speak^H1696 not peace^H7965; But they devise^H2803 deceitful^H4820 words^H1697 against them that are quiet^H7282 in the land^H776. 21Yea, they opened their mouth^H6310 wide^H7337 against me; They said^H559, Aha^H1889, aha^H1889, our eye^H5869 hath seen^H7200 it. 22Thou hast seen^H7200 it, O Jehovah^H3068; Keep not silence^H2790: O Lord^H136, be not far^H7368 from me. 23Stir up^H5782 thyself, and awake^H6974 to the justice^H4941 due unto me, Even unto my cause^H7379, my God^H430 and my Lord^H136. 24Judge^H8199 me, O Jehovah^H3068 my God^H430, according to thy righteousness^H6664; And let them not rejoice^H8055 over me. 25Let them not say^H559 in their heart^H3820, Aha^H1889, so would we have it^H5315: Let them not say^H559, We have swallowed him up^H1104. 26Let them be put to shame^H954 and confounded^H954 together^H3162 that rejoice^H8056 at my hurt^H7451: Let them be clothed^H3847 with shame^H1322 and dishonor^H3639 that magnify^H1431 themselves against me. 27Let them shout for joy^H7442, and be glad^H8055, that favor^H2655 my righteous cause^H6664: Yea, let them say^H559 continually^H8548, Jehovah^H3068 be magnified^H1431, Who hath pleasure^H2655 in the prosperity^H7965 of his servant^H5650. 28And my tongue^H3956 shall talk^H1897 of thy righteousness^H6664 And of thy praise^H8416 all the day^H3117 long.
