Book 19 : PSALMS - Chapter 035
035:001
Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for mine help
035:002
Draw out also the spear, and stop the way against them that
persecute me: say unto my soul, I am thy salvation
035:003
Let them be confounded and put to shame that seek after my
soul: let them be turned back and brought to confusion that
devise my hurt
035:004
Let them be as chaff before the wind: and let the angel of the
LORD chase them
035:005
Let their way be dark and slippery: and let the angel of the
LORD persecute them
035:006
For without cause have they hid for me their net in a pit,
which without cause they have digged for my soul
035:007
Let destruction come upon him at unawares; and let his net
that he hath hid catch himself: into that very destruction let
him fall
035:008
And my soul shall be joyful in the LORD: it shall rejoice in
his salvation
035:009
All my bones shall say, LORD, who is like unto thee, which
deliverest the poor from him that is too strong for him, yea,
the poor and the needy from him that spoileth him
035:010
False witnesses did rise up; they laid to my charge things
that I knew not
035:011
They rewarded me evil for good to the spoiling of my soul
035:012
But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth:
I humbled my soul with fasting; and my prayer returned into
mine own bosom
035:013
I behaved myself as though he had been my friend or brother: I
bowed down heavily, as one that mourneth for his mother
035:014
But in mine adversity they rejoiced, and gathered themselves
together: yea, the abjects gathered themselves together
against me, and I knew it not; they did tear me, and ceased
not
035:015
With hypocritical mockers in feasts, they gnashed upon me with
their teeth
035:016
Lord, how long wilt thou look on? rescue my soul from their
destructions, my darling from the lions
035:017
I will give thee thanks in the great congregation: I will
praise thee among much people
035:018
Let not them that are mine enemies wrongfully rejoice over me:
neither let them wink with the eye that hate me without a
cause
035:019
For they speak not peace: but they devise deceitful matters
against them that are quiet in the land
035:020
Yea, they opened their mouth wide against me, and said, Aha,
aha, our eye hath seen it
035:021
This thou hast seen, O LORD: keep not silence: O Lord, be not
far from me
035:022
Stir up thyself, and awake to my judgment, even unto my cause,
my God and my Lord
035:023
Judge me, O LORD my God, according to thy righteousness; and
let them not rejoice over me
035:024
Let them not say in their hearts, Ah, so would we have it: let
them not say, We have swallowed him up
035:025
Let them be ashamed and brought to confusion together that
rejoice at mine hurt: let them be clothed with shame and
dishonour that magnify themselves against me
035:026
Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favour my righteous
cause: yea, let them say continually, Let the LORD be
magnified, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his
servant
035:027
And my tongue shall speak of thy righteousness and of thy
praise all the day long
