Psalms 35
1 [A Psalm] of David. Judge you, O Lord, them that injure me, fight against them that fight against me.
Of David - contend! O Yahweh with opponents my fight with [those who] fight with me.
2 Take hold of shield and buckler, and arise for my help.
Take hold of shield and body shield and arise! help my.
3 Bring forth a sword, and stop [the way] against them that persecute me: say to my soul, I am your salvation.
And draw out a spear and lance to meet pursuers my say to self my [am] salvation your I.
4 Let them that seek my soul be ashamed and confounded: let them that devise evils against me be turned back and put to shame.
May they be ashamed and they may be humiliated [those who] seek life my may they be turned back backwards and may they be abashed [those who] plot harm my.
5 Let them be as dust before the wind, and an angel of the Lord afflicting them.
May they be like chaff before a wind and [the] angel of Yahweh pushing.
6 Let their way be dark and slippery, and an angel of the Lord persecuting them.
May it be way their darkness and slippery places and [the] angel of Yahweh pursuing them.
7 For without cause they have hid for me their destructive snare: without a cause they have reproached my soul.
For without cause they have hidden for me [the] pit of net their without cause they have dug for life my.
8 Let a snare which they know not come upon them; and the gin which they hid take them; and let them fall into the very same snare.
May it come to him destruction [which] not he knows and net his which he hid may it catch him in destruction may he fall in it.
9 But my soul shall exult in the Lord: it shall delight in his salvation.
And self my it will rejoice in Yahweh it will exult in salvation his.
10 All my bones shall say, O Lord, who is like to you? delivering the poor out of the hand of them that are stronger than he, yes, the poor and needy one from them that spoil him.
All bones my - they will say O Yahweh who? [is] like you [one who] delivers a poor [person] from a person [too] strong for him and [the] poor and [the] needy from [one who] robs him.
11 Unjust witnesses arose, and asked me of things I new not.
They rise up! witnesses of violence [that] which not I know they ask me.
12 They rewarded me evil for good, and bereavement to my soul.
They repay me harm in place of good bereavement [belongs] to self my.
13 But I, when they troubled me, put on sackcloth, and humbled my soul with fasting: and my prayer shall return to my [own] bosom.
And I - when were sick they clothing my [was] sackcloth I humbled with fasting self my and prayer my to bosom my it returned.
14 I behaved agreeably towards them as [if it had been] our neighbour [or] brother: I humbled myself as one mourning and sad of countenance.
Like a friend like a brother of me I went about like a mourner of a mother mourning I bowed.
15 Yet they rejoiced against me, and plagues were plentifully brought against me, and I knew [it] not: they were scattered, but repented not.
And at stumbling my they rejoiced and they gathered they gathered on me smitten [people] and not I knew they tore and not they were still.
16 They tempted me, they sneered at me most contemptuously, they gnashed their teeth upon me.
Godless [ones] of mockers of cake they gnashed towards me teeth their.
17 O Lord, when will you look upon me? Deliver my soul from their mischief, mine only-begotten one from the lions.
O Lord how long? will you look bring back! life my from ravages their from young lions only [life] my.
18 I will give thanks to you even in a great congregation: in an abundant people I will praise you.
I will give thanks to you in [the] assembly great among a people numerous I will praise you.
19 Let not them that are mine enemies without a cause rejoice against me; who hate me for nothing, and wink with their eyes.
May not they rejoice to me enemies my falsehood [those who] hate me without cause let them wink an eye.
20 For to me they spoke peaceably, but imagined deceits in [their] anger.
For not peace they speak and on [the] quiet [people] of [the] land words of deceit they plan!
21 And they opened wide their mouth upon me; they said Aha, aha, our eyes have seen [it].
And they have opened wide on me mouth their they have said aha! - aha! it has seen eyes our.
22 You have seen [it], O Lord: keep not silence: O Lord, withdraw not [yourself] from me.
You have seen O Yahweh may not you be silent O Lord may not you be distant from me.
23 Awake, O Lord, and attend to my judgement, [even] to my cause, my God and my Lord.
Wake up! and awake! for judgment my O God my and O Lord for cause my.
24 Judge me, O Lord, according to your righteousness, O Lord my God; and let them not rejoice against me.
Vindicate me according to righteousness your O Yahweh God my and may not they rejoice to me.
25 Let them not say in their hearts, Aha, aha, [it is pleasing] to our soul: neither let them say, We have devoured him.
May not they say in heart their aha! desire our may not they say we have swallowed him.
26 Let them be confounded and ashamed together that rejoice at my afflictions: let them be clothed with shame and confusion that speak great swelling words against me.
May they be ashamed and they may be abashed - altogether [the] [people] joyful of distress my may they be clothed shame and ignominy who magnify themselves on me.
27 Let them that rejoice in my righteousness exult and be glad: and let them say continually, The Lord be magnified, who desire the peace of his servant.
May they shout for joy and they may rejoice [the] [people] desirous of righteousness my and may they say continually may he be great Yahweh desiring [the] welfare of servant his.
28 And my tongue shall meditate on your righteousness, [and] on your praise all the day.
And tongue my it will utter righteousness your all the day praise your.
