1 A Psalm of David H1732 L-NAME . Plead H7378 my cause , O LORD H3068 EDS , with H854 them that strive H3401 with me : fight against H3898 them that fight against H3898 me .
2 Take hold H2388 of shield H4043 NMS and buckler H6793 , and stand up H6965 for mine help H5833 .
3 Draw out H7324 also the spear H2595 NFS , and stop H5462 the way against H7125 L-VQFC them that persecute H7291 me : say H559 unto my soul H5315 , I H589 PPRO-1MS am thy salvation H3444 .
4 Let them be confounded H954 and put to shame H3637 that seek after H1245 my soul H5315 CFS-1MS : let them be turned H5472 back H268 and brought to confusion H2659 that devise H2803 my hurt H7451 .
5 Let them be H1961 as chaff H4671 before H6440 L-CMP the wind H7307 NFS : and let the angel H4397 of the LORD H3068 EDS chase H1760 them .
6 Let their way H1870 CMS-3MP be H1961 VQI3MS dark H2822 NMS and slippery H2519 : and let the angel H4397 of the LORD H3068 EDS persecute H7291 them .
7 For H3588 CONJ without cause H2600 ADV have they hid H2934 for me their net H7568 in a pit H7845 , which without cause H2600 ADV they have digged H2658 for my soul H5315 .
8 Let destruction H7722 NFS come upon H935 him at unawares H3045 VQY3MS ; and let his net H7568 that H834 RPRO he hath hid H2934 catch H3920 himself : into that very destruction H7722 let him fall H5307 .
9 And my soul H5315 W-CFS-1MS shall be joyful H1523 in the LORD H3068 : it shall rejoice H7797 in his salvation H3444 .
10 All H3605 NMS my bones H6106 CFS-1MS shall say H559 , LORD H3068 EDS , who H4310 IPRO is like unto thee H3644 , which deliverest H5337 the poor H6041 AMS from him that is too strong H2389 for H4480 M-PREP-3MS him , yea , the poor H6041 and the needy H34 W-AMS from him that spoileth H1497 him ?
11 False H2555 AMS witnesses H5707 did rise up H6965 ; they laid to my charge H7592 things that H834 RPRO I knew H3045 VQY1MS not H3808 NADV .
12 They rewarded H7999 me evil H7451 AFS for H8478 NMS good H2896 NFS to the spoiling H7908 of my soul H5315 .
13 But as for me H589 W-PPRO-1MS , when they were sick H2470 , my clothing H3830 CMS-1MS was sackcloth H8242 : I humbled H6031 my soul H5315 CFS-1MS with fasting H6685 ; and my prayer H8605 returned H7725 into H5921 PREP mine own bosom H2436 .
14 I behaved myself H1980 as though he had been my friend H7453 or brother H251 : I bowed down H7817 heavily H6937 VQPMS , as one that mourneth H57 for his mother H517 GFS .
15 But in mine adversity H6761 they rejoiced H8055 , and gathered themselves together H622 : yea , the abjects H5222 gathered themselves together H622 against H5921 PREP-1MS me , and I knew H3045 VQY1MS it not H3808 W-NPAR ; they did tear H7167 me , and ceased H1826 not H3808 W-NPAR :
16 With hypocritical H2611 mockers H3934 in feasts H4580 , they gnashed H2786 upon H5921 PREP-1MS me with their teeth H8127 .
17 Lord H136 EDS , how long H4100 K-IGAT wilt thou look on H7200 ? rescue H7725 my soul H5315 CFS-1MS from their destructions H7722 , my darling H3173 from the lions H3715 .
18 I will give thee thanks H3034 in the great H7227 AMS congregation H6951 : I will praise H1984 thee among much H6099 people H5971 .
19 Let not H408 ADV them that are mine enemies H341 wrongfully H8267 NMS rejoice H8055 over me : neither let them wink H7169 with the eye H5869 that hate H8130 me without a cause H2600 ADV .
20 For H3588 CONJ they speak H1696 VPY3MP not H3808 NADV peace H7965 NMS : but they devise H2803 deceitful H4820 matters H1697 CMP against H5921 W-PREP them that are quiet H7282 in the land H776 GFS .
21 Yea , they opened H7337 their mouth H6310 wide against H5921 PREP-1MS me , and said H559 VQQ3MP , Aha H1889 IJEC , aha H1889 IJEC , our eye H5869 hath seen H7200 VQQ3FS it .
22 This thou hast seen H7200 , O LORD H3068 EDS : keep not H408 ADV silence H2790 : O Lord H136 EDS , be not H408 ADV far H7368 from H4480 PREP-1MS me .
23 Stir up thyself H5782 , and awake H6974 to my judgment H4941 , even unto my cause H7379 , my God H430 and my Lord H136 .
24 Judge H8199 me , O LORD H3068 EDS my God H430 , according to thy righteousness H6664 ; and let them not H408 W-NPAR rejoice H8055 over me .
25 Let them not H408 NPAR say H559 VQY3MP in their hearts H3820 , Ah H1889 IJEC , so would we have it H5315 : let them not H408 NPAR say H559 VQY3MP , We have swallowed him up H1104 .
26 Let them be ashamed H954 and brought to confusion H2659 together H3162 ADV-3MS that rejoice H8056 at mine hurt H7451 : let them be clothed H3847 with shame H1322 NFS and dishonor H3639 that magnify H1431 themselves against H5921 me .
27 Let them shout for joy H7442 , and be glad H8055 W-VQY3MP , that favor H2655 my righteous cause H6664 CMS-1MS : yea , let them say H559 W-VQY3MP continually H8548 , Let the LORD H3068 EDS be magnified H1431 , which hath pleasure H2655 in the prosperity H7965 of his servant H5650 .
28 And my tongue H3956 W-CMS-1MS shall speak H1897 of thy righteousness H6664 and of thy praise H8416 all H3605 NMS the day H3117 D-AMS long .
