1Strive thou, O Jehovah, with them that strive with me: Fight thou against them that fight against me.
1 Strive, O Jehovah, with them that strive with me; fight against them that fight against me:
1By David. Strive, Jehovah, with my strivers, fight with my fighters,
2Take hold of shield and buckler, And stand up for my help.
2 Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for my help;
2Take hold of shield and buckler, and rise for my help,
3Draw out also the spear, and stop the way against them that pursue me: Say unto my soul, I am thy salvation.
3 And draw out the spear, and stop [the way] against my pursuers: say unto my soul, I am thy salvation.
3And draw out spear and lance, To meet my pursuers. Say to my soul, `Thy salvation I <FI>am<Fi> .'
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.
4 Let them be put to shame and confounded that seek after my life; let them be turned backward and brought to confusion that devise my hurt:
4They are ashamed and blush, those seeking my soul, Turned backward and confounded, Those devising my evil.
5Let them be as chaff before the wind, And the angel of Jehovah drivingthemon.
5 Let them be as chaff before the wind, and let the angel of Jehovah drive [them] away;
5They are as chaff before wind, And a messenger of Jehovah driving away.
6Let their way be dark and slippery, And the angel of Jehovah pursuing them.
6 Let their way be dark and slippery, and let the angel of Jehovah pursue them.
6Their way is darkness and slipperiness, And a messenger of Jehovah their pursuer.
7For without cause have they hid for me their netina pit; Without cause have they digged a pit for my soul.
7 For without cause have they hidden for me their net [in] a pit; without cause they have digged [it] for my soul.
7For without cause they hid for me their netpit, Without cause they digged for my soul.
8Let destruction come upon him unawares; And let his net that he hath hid catch himself: With destruction let him fall therein.
8 Let destruction come upon him unawares, and let his net which he hath hidden catch himself: for destruction let him fall therein.
8Meet him doth desolation--he knoweth not, And his net that he hid catcheth him, For desolation he falleth into it.
9And my soul shall be joyful in Jehovah: It shall rejoice in his salvation.
9 And my soul shall be joyful in Jehovah; it shall rejoice in his salvation.
9And my soul is joyful in Jehovah, It rejoiceth in His salvation.
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?
10 All my bones shall say, Jehovah, who is like unto thee, who deliverest the afflicted from one stronger than he, yea, the afflicted and the needy from him that spoileth him!
10All my bones say, `Jehovah, who is like Thee, Delivering the poor from the stronger than he, And the poor and needy from his plunderer.'
11Unrighteous witnesses rise up; They ask me of things that I know not.
11 Unrighteous witnesses rise up; they lay to my charge things which I know not.
11Violent witnesses rise up, That which I have not known they ask me.
12They reward me evil for good, Tothe bereaving of my soul.
12 They reward me evil for good, [to] the bereavement of my soul.
12They pay me evil for good, bereaving my soul,
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.
13 But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth; I chastened my soul with fasting, and my prayer returned into mine own bosom:
13And I--in their sickness my clothing <FI>is<Fi> sackcloth, I have humbled with fastings my soul, And my prayer unto my bosom returneth.
14I behaved myself as though it had been my friend or my brother: I bowed down mourning, as one that bewaileth his mother.
14 I behaved myself as though [he had been] a friend, a brother to me; I bowed down in sadness, as one that mourneth [for] a mother.
14As <FI>if<Fi> a friend, as <FI>if<Fi> my brother, I walked habitually, As a mourner for a mother, Mourning I have bowed down.
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:
15 But at my halting they rejoiced, and gathered together: the slanderers gathered themselves together against me, and I knew [it] not; they did tear [me], and ceased not:
15And--in my halting they have rejoiced, And have been gathered together, Gathered against me were the smiters, And I have not known, They have rent, and they have not ceased;
16Like the profane mockers in feasts, They gnashed upon me with their teeth.
16 With profane jesters for bread, they have gnashed their teeth against me.
16With profane ones, mockers in feasts, Gnashing against me their teeth.
17Lord, how long wilt thou look on? Rescue my soul from their destructions, My darling from the lions.
17 Lord, how long wilt thou look on? Rescue my soul from their destructions, my only one from the young lions.
17Lord, how long dost thou behold? Keep back my soul from their desolations, From young lions my only one.
18I will give thee thanks in the great assembly: I will praise thee among much people.
18 I will give thee thanks in the great congregation; I will praise thee among much people.
18I thank Thee in a great assembly, Among a mighty people I praise Thee.
19Let not them that are mine enemies wrongfully rejoice over me; Neither let them wink with the eye that hate me without a cause.
19 Let not them that are wrongfully mine enemies rejoice over me; let them not wink with the eye that hate me without cause.
19Mine enemies rejoice not over me <FI>with<Fi> falsehood, Those hating me without cause wink the eye.
20For they speak not peace; But they devise deceitful words against them that are quiet in the land.
20 For they speak not peace; and they devise deceitful words against the quiet in the land.
20For they speak not peace, And against the quiet of the land, Deceitful words they devise,
21Yea, they opened their mouth wide against me; They said, Aha, aha, our eye hath seen it.
21 And they opened their mouth wide against me; they said, Aha! aha! our eye hath seen [it].
21And they enlarge against me their mouth, They said, `Aha, aha, our eye hath seen.'
22Thou hast seen it, O Jehovah; keep not silence: O Lord, be not far from me.
22 Thou hast seen [it], Jehovah: keep not silence; O Lord, be not far from me.
22Thou hast seen, O Jehovah, Be not silent, O Lord--be not far from me,
23Stir up thyself, and awake to the justice due unto me, Even unto my cause, my God and my Lord.
23 Stir up thyself, and awake for my right, for my cause, myGod and Lord!
23Stir up, and wake to my judgment, My God, and my Lord, to my plea.
24Judge me, O Jehovah my God, according to thy righteousness; And let them not rejoice over me.
24 Judge me, Jehovah myGod, according to thy righteousness, and let them not rejoice over me.
24Judge me according to Thy righteousness, O Jehovah my God, And they do not rejoice over me.
25Let them not say in their heart, Aha, so would we have it: Let them not say, We have swallowed him up.
25 Let them not say in their heart, Aha! so would we have it. Let them not say, We have swallowed him up.
25They do not say in their heart, `Aha, our desire.' They do not say, `We swallowed him up.'
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.
26 Let them be ashamed and brought to confusion together that rejoice at mine adversity; let them be clothed with shame and dishonour that magnify themselves against me.
26They are ashamed and confounded together, Who are rejoicing at my evil. They put on shame and confusion, Who are magnifying themselves against me.
27Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favor my righteous cause: Yea, let them say continually, Jehovah be magnified, Who hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant.
27 Let them exult and rejoice that delight in my righteousness; and let them say continually, Jehovah be magnified, who delighteth in the prosperity of his servant.
27They sing and rejoice, who are desiring my righteousness, And they say continually, `Jehovah is magnified, Who is desiring the peace of His servant.'
