| Psalms 35:1 | Contend, Yahweh, with those who contend with me. Fight against those who fight against me. | <Of David.> O Lord, be on my side against those who are judging me; be at war with those who make war against me. | | Unto the end, for the servant of God, David himself. |
| Psalms 35:2 | Take hold of shield and buckler, And stand up for my help. | Be a breastplate to me, and give me your help. | | The unjust hath said within himself, that he would sin : there is no fear of God before his eyes. |
| Psalms 35:3 | Draw out also the spear, and stop the way against those who pursue me. Tell my soul, "I am your salvation." | Take up your spear and keep back my attackers; say to my soul, I am your salvation. | | For in his sight he hath done deceitfully, that his iniquity may be found unto hatred. |
| Psalms 35:4 | Let those who seek after my soul be put to shame and brought to dishonor. Let those who plot my ruin be turned back and confounded. | Let them be overcome and put to shame who make attempts to take my soul; let those who would do me damage be turned back and made foolish. | | The words of his mouth are iniquity and guile : he would not understand that he might do well. |
| Psalms 35:5 | Let them be as chaff before the wind, The angel of Yahweh driving them on. | Let them be like dust from the grain before the wind; let the angel of the Lord send them in flight. | | He hath devised iniquity on his bed, he hath set himself on every way that is not good : but evil he hath not hated. |
| Psalms 35:6 | Let their way be dark and slippery, The angel of Yahweh pursuing them. | Let their way be dark and full of danger; let them be troubled by the angel of the Lord. | | O Lord, thy mercy is in heaven, and thy truth reacheth, even to the clouds. |
| Psalms 35:7 | For without cause have they hid their net in a pit for me. Without cause have they dug a pit for my soul. | For without cause they have put a net ready for me secretly, in which to take my soul. | | Thy justice is as the mountains of God, thy judgments are a great deep. Men and beasts thou wilt preserve, O Lord : |
| Psalms 35:8 | Let destruction come on him unawares. Let his net that he has hidden catch himself. Into that destruction let him fall. | Let destruction come on them without their knowledge; let them be taken themselves in their secret nets, falling into the same destruction. | | O how hast thou multiplied thy mercy, O God! But the children of men shall put their trust under the covert of thy wings. |
| Psalms 35:9 | My soul shall be joyful in Yahweh. It shall rejoice in his salvation. | And my soul will have joy in the Lord; it will be glad in his salvation. | | They shall be inebriated with the plenty of thy house; and thou shalt make them drink of the torrent of thy pleasure. |
| Psalms 35:10 | All my bones shall say, "Yahweh, who is like you, Who delivers the poor from him who is too strong for him, Yes, the poor and the needy from him who robs him?" | All my bones will say, Lord, who is like you? The saviour of the poor man from the hands of the strong, of him who is poor and in need from him who takes his goods. | | For with thee is the fountain of life; and in thy light we shall see light. |
| Psalms 35:11 | Unrighteous witnesses rise up. They ask me about things that I don't know about. | False witnesses got up: they put questions to me about crimes of which I had no knowledge. | | Extend thy mercy to them that know thee, and thy justice to them that are right in heart. |
| Psalms 35:12 | They reward me evil for good, To the bereaving of my soul. | They gave me back evil for good, troubling my soul. | | Let not the foot of pride come to me, and let not the hand of the sinner move me. |
| Psalms 35:13 | But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth. I afflicted my soul with fasting. My prayer returned into my own bosom. | But as for me, when they were ill I put on the clothing of sorrow: I went without food and was sad, and my prayer came back again to my heart. | | There the workers of iniquity are fallen, they are cast out, and could not stand. |
| Psalms 35:14 | I behaved myself as though it had been my friend or my brother. I bowed down mourning, as one who mourns his mother. | My behaviour was as if it had been my friend or my brother: I was bent low in grief like one whose mother is dead. | | |
| Psalms 35:15 | But in my adversity, they rejoiced, and gathered themselves together. The attackers gathered themselves together against me, and I didn't know it. They tore at me, and didn't cease. | But they took pleasure in my trouble, and came together, yes, low persons came together against me without my knowledge; they never came to an end of wounding me. | | |
| Psalms 35:16 | Like the profane mockers in feasts, They gnashed their teeth at me. | Like men of deceit they put me to shame; the voice of their wrath was loud against me. | | |
| Psalms 35:17 | Lord, how long will you look on? Rescue my soul from their destruction, My precious life from the lions. | Lord, how long will you be looking on? take my soul from their destruction, my life from the lions. | | |
| Psalms 35:18 | I will give you thanks in the great assembly. I will praise you among many people. | I will give you praise in the great meeting; I will give you honour among a strong people. | | |
| Psalms 35:19 | Don't let those who are my enemies wrongfully rejoice over me; Neither let them wink with the eye who hate me without a cause. | Do not let my haters be glad over me falsely; let not those who are against me without cause make sport of me. | | |
| Psalms 35:20 | For they don't speak peace, But they devise deceitful words against those who are quiet in the land. | For they do not say words of peace; in their deceit they are designing evil things against the quiet ones in the land. | | |
| Psalms 35:21 | Yes, they opened their mouth wide against me. They said, "Aha! Aha! Our eye has seen it!" | Their mouths were open wide against me, and they said, Aha, aha, our eyes have seen it. | | |
| Psalms 35:22 | You have seen it, Yahweh. Don't keep silent. Lord, don't be far from me. | You have seen this, O Lord; be not unmoved: O Lord, be not far from me. | | |
| Psalms 35:23 | Wake up! Rise up to defend me, my God! My Lord, contend for me! | Be awake, O Lord, be moved to take up my cause, my God and my Lord. | | |
| Psalms 35:24 | Vindicate me, Yahweh my God, according to your righteousness; Don't let them gloat over me. | Be my judge, O Lord my God, in your righteousness; do not let them be glad over me. | | |
| Psalms 35:25 | Don't let them say in their heart, "Aha! That's the way we want it." Don't let them say, "We have swallowed him up!" | Let them not say in their hearts, So we will have it: let them not say, We have put an end to him. | | |
| Psalms 35:26 | Let them be put to shame and confounded together who rejoice at my calamity. Let them be clothed with shame and dishonor who magnify themselves against me. | Let all those who take pleasure in my troubles be shamed and come to nothing: let those who are lifted up against me be covered with shame and have no honour. | | |
| Psalms 35:27 | Let them shout for joy and be glad, who favor my righteous cause. Yes, let them say continually, "Yahweh be magnified, Who has pleasure in the prosperity of his servant!" | Let those who are on my side give cries of joy; let them ever say, The Lord be praised, for he has pleasure in the peace of his servant. | | |
| Psalms 35:28 | My tongue shall talk about your righteousness and about your praise all day long. Psalm 36 For the Chief Musician. By David, the servant of Yahweh. | And my tongue will be talking of your righteousness and of your praise all the day. | | |
