< Psalms 35 >

1 [A Psalm] of David. Strive, O Jehovah, with them that strive with 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 stand up for my help;
Take hold of shield and body shield and arise! help my.
3 And draw out the spear, and stop [the way] against my pursuers: say unto my soul, I am thy salvation.
And draw out a spear and lance to meet pursuers my say to self my [am] salvation your I.
4 Let them be put to shame and confounded that seek after my life; let them be turned backward and brought to confusion that devise my hurt:
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 chaff before the wind, and let the angel of Jehovah drive [them] away;
May they be like chaff before a wind and [the] angel of Yahweh pushing.
6 Let their way be dark and slippery, and let the angel of Jehovah pursue them.
May it be way their darkness and slippery places and [the] angel of Yahweh pursuing them.
7 For without cause have they hidden for me their net [in] a pit; without cause they have digged [it] for 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 destruction come upon him unawares, and let his net which he hath hidden catch himself: for destruction let him fall therein.
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 And my soul shall be joyful in Jehovah; it shall rejoice in his salvation.
And self my it will rejoice in Yahweh it will exult in salvation his.
10 All my bones shall say, Jehovah, who is like unto thee, who deliverest the afflicted from one stronger than he, yea, the afflicted and the needy from him that spoileth 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 Unrighteous witnesses rise up; they lay to my charge things which I know not.
They rise up! witnesses of violence [that] which not I know they ask me.
12 They reward me evil for good, [to] the bereavement of my soul.
They repay me harm in place of good bereavement [belongs] to self my.
13 But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth; I chastened my soul with fasting, and my prayer returned into mine 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 myself as though [he had been] a friend, a brother to me; I bowed down in sadness, as one that mourneth [for] a mother.
Like a friend like a brother of me I went about like a mourner of a mother mourning I bowed.
15 But at my halting they rejoiced, and gathered together: the slanderers gathered themselves together against me, and I knew [it] not; they did tear [me], and ceased 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 With profane jesters for bread, they have gnashed their teeth against me.
Godless [ones] of mockers of cake they gnashed towards me teeth their.
17 Lord, how long wilt thou look on? Rescue my soul from their destructions, my only one from the young 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 thee thanks in the great congregation; I will praise thee among much people.
I will give thanks to you in [the] assembly great among a people numerous I will praise you.
19 Let not them that are wrongfully mine enemies rejoice over me; let them not wink with the eye that hate me without cause.
May not they rejoice to me enemies my falsehood [those who] hate me without cause let them wink an eye.
20 For they speak not peace; and they devise deceitful words against the quiet in the land.
For not peace they speak and on [the] quiet [people] of [the] land words of deceit they plan!
21 And they opened their mouth wide against me; they said, Aha! aha! our eye hath seen [it].
And they have opened wide on me mouth their they have said aha! - aha! it has seen eyes our.
22 Thou hast seen [it], Jehovah: keep not silence; O Lord, be not far from me.
You have seen O Yahweh may not you be silent O Lord may not you be distant from me.
23 Stir up thyself, and awake for my right, for my cause, my God and Lord!
Wake up! and awake! for judgment my O God my and O Lord for cause my.
24 Judge me, Jehovah my God, according to thy righteousness, and let them not rejoice over 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 heart, Aha! so would we have it. Let them not say, We have swallowed him up.
May not they say in heart their aha! desire our may not they say we have swallowed him.
26 Let them be ashamed and brought to confusion together that rejoice at mine adversity; let them be clothed with shame and dishonour that magnify themselves 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 exult and rejoice that delight in my righteousness; and let them say continually, Jehovah be magnified, who delighteth in the prosperity 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 talk of thy righteousness, [and] of thy praise, all the day.
And tongue my it will utter righteousness your all the day praise your.
