Psalm 35

The Lord the Avenger of His People

35A Psalm of David. Plead my cause, O LORD, with those who strive with me; Fight against those who fight against me.H1732H7378H3068H3401H3898H38982Take hold of shield and buckler, And stand up for my help.H2388H4043H6793H6965H58333Also draw out the spear, And stop those who pursue me. Say to my soul, "I am your salvation."H7324H2595H5462H7125H7291H559H5315H34444Let those be put to shame and brought to dishonor Who seek after my life; Let those be turned back and brought to confusion Who plot my hurt.H954H3637H1245H5315H5472H268H2659H2803H74515Let them be like chaff before the wind, And let the angel of the LORD chase them.H4671H6440H7307H4397H3068H17606Let their way be dark and slippery, And let the angel of the LORD pursue them.H1870H2822H2519H4397H3068H72917For without cause they have hidden their net for me in a pit, Which they have dug without cause for my life.H2600H2934H7568H7845H2600H2658H53158Let destruction come upon him unexpectedly, And let his net that he has hidden catch himself; Into that very destruction let him fall.H7722H935H3045H3808H7568H2934H3920H7722H53079And my soul shall be joyful in the LORD; It shall rejoice in His salvation.H5315H1523H3068H7797H344410All my bones shall say, "LORD, who is like You, Delivering the poor from him who is too strong for him, Yes, the poor and the needy from him who plunders him?"H6106H559H3068H5337H6041H2389H6041H34H149711Fierce witnesses rise up; They ask me things that I do not know.H2555H5707H6965H7592H304512They reward me evil for good, To the sorrow of my soul.H7999H7451H2896H7908H531513But as for me, when they were sick, My clothing was sackcloth; I humbled myself with fasting; And my prayer would return to my own heart.H2470H3830H8242H6031H5315H6685H8605H7725H243614I paced about as though he were my friend or brother; I bowed down heavily, as one who mourns for his mother.H1980H7453H251H7817H6937H57H51715But in my adversity they rejoiced And gathered together; Attackers gathered against me, And I did not know it; They tore at me and did not cease;H6761H8055H622H5222H622H3045H7167H182616With ungodly mockers at feasts They gnashed at me with their teeth.H2611H3934H4580H2786H812717Lord, how long will You look on? Rescue me from their destructions, My precious life from the lions.H136H7200H7725H5315H7722H3173H371518I will give You thanks in the great assembly; I will praise You among many people.H3034H7227H6951H1984H6099H597119Let them not rejoice over me who are wrongfully my enemies; Nor let them wink with the eye who hate me without a cause.H341H8267H8055H7169H5869H8130H260020For they do not speak peace, But they devise deceitful matters Against the quiet ones in the land.H1696H7965H2803H4820H1697H7282H77621They also opened their mouth wide against me, And said, "Aha, aha! Our eyes have seen it."H6310H7337H559H1889H1889H5869H720022This You have seen, O LORD; Do not keep silence. O Lord, do not be far from me.H7200H3068H2790H136H736823Stir up Yourself, and awake to my vindication, To my cause, my God and my Lord.H5782H6974H4941H7379H430H13624Vindicate me, O LORD my God, according to Your righteousness; And let them not rejoice over me.H8199H3068H430H6664H805525Let them not say in their hearts, "Ah, so we would have it!" Let them not say, "We have swallowed him up."H559H3820H1889H5315H559H110426Let them be ashamed and brought to mutual confusion Who rejoice at my hurt; Let them be clothed with shame and dishonor Who exalt themselves against me.H954H2659H3162H8056H7451H3847H1322H3639H143127Let them shout for joy and be glad, Who favor my righteous cause; And let them say continually, "Let the LORD be magnified, Who has pleasure in the prosperity of His servant."H7442H8055H2655H6664H559H8548H3068H1431H2655H7965H565028And my tongue shall speak of Your righteousness And of Your praise all the day long.H3956H1897H6664H8416H3117

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
