Psalms 35
1 Yahweh, fight against those who fight against me! Fight against [my enemies] when they fight me!
Of David - contend! O Yahweh with opponents my fight with [those who] fight with me.
2 Be [like] a shield [DOU] to protect me and come to help me!
Take hold of shield and body shield and arise! help my.
3 Lift up your spear [DOU] and [throw it] at those who pursue me! Promise me that you will enable me to defeat [my enemies].
And draw out a spear and lance to meet pursuers my say to self my [am] salvation your I.
4 Cause those who are trying to kill me to be defeated and disgraced! Cause those who are planning to do evil things to me to be pushed back and become confused!
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 Send your angel to pursue them, and as a result cause them to disappear like chaff/straw blown away by the wind!
May they be like chaff before a wind and [the] angel of Yahweh pushing.
6 Cause the path on which they run to be dark and slippery as your angel pursues them!
May it be way their darkness and slippery places and [the] angel of Yahweh pursuing them.
7 Although I did not do anything wrong to them, they concealed a deep pit for me to fall into; they hid a net in which they would catch me.
For without cause they have hidden for me [the] pit of net their without cause they have dug for life my.
8 Cause them to suddenly experience disaster! Cause them to be trapped in their own nets! Cause them to fall into the pits that they have dug for me and disappear!
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 Then I will be joyful about what you, Yahweh, have done for me, I will be glad that you have rescued me.
And self my it will rejoice in Yahweh it will exult in salvation his.
10 With my whole inner being [SYN] I will say, “There is no one like Yahweh [RHQ]! No one else can rescue helpless people from powerful people [RHQ]. No one else can rescue weak and needy people from those who want to rob them.”
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 People who tell lies stand in court and falsely accuse me of doing things that I do not know [anything] about.
They rise up! witnesses of violence [that] which not I know they ask me.
12 In return for my doing good things for them, they do evil things to me, with the result that I feel that I am alone.
They repay me harm in place of good bereavement [belongs] to self my.
13 When they were ill, I showed that I was sad. I did not eat any food, and I bowed my head as I prayed [for them].
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 mourned and bowed my head as I prayed as though it was a friend or my mother for whom I was grieving.
Like a friend like a brother of me I went about like a mourner of a mother mourning I bowed.
15 But when I had troubles, they were all happy about it. They gathered around to make fun of me. Strangers struck me, and they would not stop.
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 Worthless people ridicule me and snarl at me.
Godless [ones] of mockers of cake they gnashed towards me teeth their.
17 Yahweh, how long will you only watch them doing this? Rescue me from their attacking me; Save me from being killed by these men who are attacking me like [MET] lions [that are attacking other animals]
O Lord how long? will you look bring back! life my from ravages their from young lions only [life] my.
18 Then, when many of your people gather, I will praise you and I will thank you in front of all of them.
I will give thanks to you in [the] assembly great among a people numerous I will praise you.
19 Do not allow my enemies, who tell lies about me, defeat me and then rejoice! Do not allow those who hate me when there in no reason to hate me to (smirk/smile happily)!
May not they rejoice to me enemies my falsehood [those who] hate me without cause let them wink an eye.
20 They do not talk peacefully to people; instead, they seek ways to tell lies about people who are peaceful.
For not peace they speak and on [the] quiet [people] of [the] land words of deceit they plan!
21 They shout at me, to accuse me, saying, “We saw the wrong things that you did!”
And they have opened wide on me mouth their they have said aha! - aha! it has seen eyes our.
22 Yahweh, you have seen these things, so do not be silent! Do not stay far from me!
You have seen O Yahweh may not you be silent O Lord may not you be distant from me.
23 Arise, my God, and plead my case in court, and successfully defend me!
Wake up! and awake! for judgment my O God my and O Lord for cause my.
24 Yahweh, my God, because you are righteous, prove that I am innocent in order that my enemies will not be able to gloat [that I was judged to be guilty].
Vindicate me according to righteousness your O Yahweh God my and may not they rejoice to me.
25 Do not allow them to be able to say to themselves, “Yes, we have gotten rid of him [IDM] just like we desired!”
May not they say in heart their aha! desire our may not they say we have swallowed him.
26 Cause those who rejoice about my misfortunes to be completely defeated and disgraced; cause those who boast that they are much greater than me to be disgraced and dishonored!
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 But cause those who desire that I be acquitted to be happy and shout joyfully, and cause them to continually say, “Yahweh is great! He is delighted to cause things to go well for those who serve him.”
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 Then I will proclaim that you act righteously, and I will praise you all day long.
And tongue my it will utter righteousness your all the day praise your.
