1Unto the end, for the servant of God, David himself.
1Strive thou, O Jehovah, with them that strive with me: Fight thou against them that fight against me.
2The unjust hath said within himself, that he would sin: there is no fear of God before his eyes.
2Take hold of shield and buckler, And stand up for my help.
3For in his sight he hath done deceitfully, that his iniquity may be found unto hatred.
3Draw out also the spear, and stop the way against them that pursue me: Say unto my soul, I am thy salvation.
4The words of his mouth are iniquity and guile: he would not understand that he might do well.
4Let them be put to shame and brought to dishonor that seek after my soul: Let them be turned back and confounded that devise my hurt.
5He hath devised iniquity on his bed, he hath set himself on every way that is not good: but evil he hath not hated.
5Let them be as chaff before the wind, And the angel of Jehovah drivingthemon.
6O Lord, thy mercy is in heaven, and thy truth reacheth even to the clouds.
6Let their way be dark and slippery, And the angel of Jehovah pursuing them.
7Thy justice is as the mountains of God, thy judgments are a great deep. Men and beasts thou wilt preserve, O Lord:
7For without cause have they hid for me their netina pit; Without cause have they digged a pit for my soul.
8O how hast thou multiplied thy mercy, O God! But the children of men shall put their trust under the cover of thy wings.
8Let destruction come upon him unawares; And let his net that he hath hid catch himself: With destruction let him fall therein.
9They shall be inebriated with the plenty of thy house; and thou shalt make them drink of the torrent of thy pleasure.
9And my soul shall be joyful in Jehovah: It shall rejoice in his salvation.
10For with thee is the fountain of life; and in thy light we shall see light.
10All my bones shall say, Jehovah, who is like unto thee, Who deliverest the poor from him that is too strong for him, Yea, the poor and the needy from him that robbeth him?
11Extend thy mercy to them that know thee, and thy justice to them that are right in heart.
11Unrighteous witnesses rise up; They ask me of things that I know not.
12Let not the foot of pride come to me, and let not the hand of the sinner move me.
12They reward me evil for good, Tothe bereaving of my soul.
13There the workers of iniquity are fallen, they are cast out, and could not stand.
13But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth: I afflicted my soul with fasting; And my prayer returned into mine own bosom.
14(not in this translation)
14I behaved myself as though it had been my friend or my brother: I bowed down mourning, as one that bewaileth his mother.
15(not in this translation)
15But in mine adversity they rejoiced, and gathered themselves together: The abjects gathered themselves together against me, and I knew it not; They did tear me, and ceased not:
16(not in this translation)
16Like the profane mockers in feasts, They gnashed upon me with their teeth.
17(not in this translation)
17Lord, how long wilt thou look on? Rescue my soul from their destructions, My darling from the lions.
18(not in this translation)
18I will give thee thanks in the great assembly: I will praise thee among much people.
19(not in this translation)
19Let not them that are mine enemies wrongfully rejoice over me; Neither let them wink with the eye that hate me without a cause.
20(not in this translation)
20For they speak not peace; But they devise deceitful words against them that are quiet in the land.
21(not in this translation)
21Yea, they opened their mouth wide against me; They said, Aha, aha, our eye hath seen it.
22(not in this translation)
22Thou hast seen it, O Jehovah; keep not silence: O Lord, be not far from me.
23(not in this translation)
23Stir up thyself, and awake to the justice due unto me, Even unto my cause, my God and my Lord.
24(not in this translation)
24Judge me, O Jehovah my God, according to thy righteousness; And let them not rejoice over me.
25(not in this translation)
25Let them not say in their heart, Aha, so would we have it: Let them not say, We have swallowed him up.
26(not in this translation)
26Let them be put to shame and confounded together that rejoice at my hurt: Let them be clothed with shame and dishonor that magnify themselves against me.
