1 Plead I my cause, O LORD, with those who strive with me; Fight against those who fight against me.

2 Take hold of shield and buckler, And stand up for my help.
[gsn]
[tsk]
3 Also draw out the spear, And stop those who pursue me. Say to my soul, "I I am your salvation."
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
[tsk]
4 Let 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.
[jfb]
[tsk]
5 Let them be like chaff before the wind, And let the angel of the LORD chase I them.
[gsn]
[jfb]
[tsk]
6 Let their way be dark and slippery, And let the angel of the LORD pursue them.
[jwc]

7 For without cause they have hidden their net for me I in a pit, I Which they have dug without cause for my life.

[tsk]
8 Let destruction come upon him unexpectedly, And let his net that he has hidden catch himself; Into that very destruction let him fall.
[gsn]
[tsk]
9 And my soul shall be joyful in the LORD; It shall rejoice in His salvation.
[tsk]
10 All my bones shall say, "LORD, who I 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?"

11 Fierce witnesses rise up; They ask me I things that I do not know.
[gsn]
[jfb]
[tsk]
[tod]
12 They reward me evil for good, I To the sorrow of my soul.
[gsn]
[jfb]
[tsk]
13 But as for me, when they were sick, My clothing I was sackcloth; I humbled myself with fasting; And my prayer would return to my own heart.
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
[tsk]
14 I paced about as though I he were my friend I or brother; I bowed down heavily, as one who mourns I for his mother.
[jfb]
[tsk]
15 But in my adversity they rejoiced And gathered together; Attackers gathered against me, And I did not know I it; They tore I at me and did not cease;
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
[tsk]
16 With ungodly mockers at feasts They gnashed at me with their teeth.
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
[tsk]
17 Lord, how long will You look on? Rescue me from their destructions, My precious I life from the lions.
[jfb]
[jwc]
[tsk]
18 I will give You thanks in the great assembly; I will praise You among many people.
[jfb]
[jwc]
[tsk]
19 Let them not rejoice over me who are wrongfully my enemies; Nor let them wink with the eye who hate me without a cause.
[gsn]
[jfb]
[tsk]
[tod]
20 For they do not speak peace, But they devise deceitful matters Against I the quiet ones in the land.
[jfb]
[jwc]
[tsk]
21 They also opened their mouth wide against me, I And said, "Aha, aha! Our eyes have seen I it."
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
[tsk]
22 I This You have seen, O LORD; Do not keep silence. O Lord, do not be far from me.
[jwc]
[tsk]
23 Stir up Yourself, and awake to my vindication, To my cause, my God and my Lord.
[jfb]
[jwc]
[tsk]
24 Vindicate me, O LORD my God, according to Your righteousness; And let them not rejoice over me.
[gsn]
[tsk]
25 Let them not say in their hearts, "Ah, so we would have it!" Let them not say, "We have swallowed him up."
[gsn]
[jfb]
[tsk]
26 Let 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.
[gsn]
[jfb]
[tsk]
27 Let 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."
[gsn]
[jfb]
[tsk]
28 And my tongue shall speak of Your righteousness I And of Your praise all the day long.
