1 By David. O LORD, fight those who fight with me! Attack those who attack me! 2 Grab your small shield and large shield, and rise up to help me! 3 Use your spear and lance against those who chase me! Assure me with these words: |I am your deliverer!| 4 May those who seek my life be embarrassed and humiliated! May those who plan to harm me be turned back and ashamed! 5 May they be like wind-driven chaff, as the LORD's angel attacks them! 6 May their path be dark and slippery, as the LORD's angel chases them! 7 I did not harm them, but they hid a net to catch me and dug a pit to trap me. 8 Let destruction take them by surprise! Let the net they hid catch them! Let them fall into destruction! Psalms 35:1-8, New English Translation. Copyright © 1996-2017 by Biblical Studies Press.
