A Psalm of DavidH1732. PleadH7378 my cause, O LORDH3068, with them that striveH3401 with me: fightH3898 against them that fightH3898 against me.
Take holdH2388 of shieldH4043 and bucklerH6793, and stand upH6965 for mine helpH5833.
Draw outH7324 also the spearH2595, and stopH5462 the way againstH7125 them that persecuteH7291 me: sayH559 unto my soulH5315, I am thy salvationH3444.
Let them be confoundedH954 and put to shameH3637 that seekH1245 after my soulH5315: let them be turnedH5472 backH268 and brought to confusionH2659 that deviseH2803 my hurtH7451.
Let them be as chaffH4671 beforeH6440 the windH7307: and let the angelH4397 of the LORDH3068 chaseH1760 them.
Let their wayH1870 be darkH2822 and slipperyH2519: and let the angelH4397 of the LORDH3068 persecuteH7291 them. {dark…: Heb. darkness and slipperiness}
For without causeH2600 have they hidH2934 for me their netH7568 in a pitH7845, which without causeH2600 they have diggedH2658 for my soulH5315.
Let destructionH7722 comeH935 upon him at unawaresH3045+H3808; and let his netH7568 that he hath hidH2934 catchH3920 himself: into that very destructionH7722 let him fallH5307. {at…: Heb. which he knoweth not of}
And my soulH5315 shall be joyfulH1523 in the LORDH3068: it shall rejoiceH7797 in his salvationH3444.
All my bonesH6106 shall sayH559, LORDH3068, who is like unto thee, which deliverestH5337 the poorH6041 from him that is too strongH2389 for him, yea, the poorH6041 and the needyH34 from him that spoilethH1497 him?
FalseH2555 witnessesH5707 did rise upH6965; they laid to my chargeH7592 things that I knewH3045 not. {False…: Heb. Witnesses of wrong} {they…: Heb. they asked me}
They rewardedH7999 me evilH7451 for goodH2896 to the spoilingH7908 of my soulH5315. {spoiling: Heb. depriving}
But as for me, when they were sickH2470, my clothingH3830 was sackclothH8242: I humbledH6031 my soulH5315 with fastingH6685; and my prayerH8605 returnedH7725 into mine own bosomH2436. {humbled: or, afflicted}
I behavedH1980 myself as though he had been my friendH7453 or brotherH251: I bowed downH7817 heavilyH6937, as one that mournethH57 for his motherH517. {behaved myself: Heb. walked} {as though…: Heb. as a friend, as a brother to me}
But in mine adversityH6761 they rejoicedH8055, and gathered themselves togetherH622: yea, the abjectsH5222 gathered themselves togetherH622 against me, and I knewH3045 it not; they did tearH7167 me, and ceasedH1826 not: {adversity: Heb. halting}
With hypocriticalH2611 mockersH3934 in feastsH4580, they gnashedH2786 upon me with their teethH8127.
LordH136, how long wilt thou look onH7200? rescueH7725 my soulH5315 from their destructionsH7722, my darlingH3173 from the lionsH3715. {darling: Heb. only one}
I will give thee thanksH3034 in the greatH7227 congregationH6951: I will praiseH1984 thee among muchH6099 peopleH5971. {much: Heb. strong}
Let not them that are mine enemiesH341 wrongfullyH8267 rejoiceH8055 over me: neither let them winkH7169 with the eyeH5869 that hateH8130 me without a causeH2600. {wrongfully: Heb. falsely}
For they speakH1696 not peaceH7965: but they deviseH2803 deceitfulH4820 mattersH1697 against them that are quietH7282 in the landH776.
Yea, they opened their mouthH6310 wideH7337 against me, and saidH559, AhaH1889, ahaH1889, our eyeH5869 hath seenH7200 it.
This thou hast seenH7200, O LORDH3068: keep not silenceH2790: O LordH136, be not farH7368 from me.
Stir upH5782 thyself, and awakeH6974 to my judgmentH4941, even unto my causeH7379, my GodH430 and my LordH136.
JudgeH8199 me, O LORDH3068 my GodH430, according to thy righteousnessH6664; and let them not rejoiceH8055 over me.
Let them not sayH559 in their heartsH3820, AhH1889, so would we have itH5315: let them not sayH559, We have swallowed him upH1104. {Ah…: Heb. Ah, ah, our soul}
Let them be ashamedH954 and brought to confusionH2659 togetherH3162 that rejoiceH8056 at mine hurtH7451: let them be clothedH3847 with shameH1322 and dishonourH3639 that magnifyH1431 themselves against me.
Let them shout for joyH7442, and be gladH8055, that favourH2655 my righteous causeH6664: yea, let them sayH559 continuallyH8548, Let the LORDH3068 be magnifiedH1431, which hath pleasureH2655 in the prosperityH7965 of his servantH5650. {righteous…: Heb. righteousness}
And my tongueH3956 shall speakH1897 of thy righteousnessH6664 and of thy praiseH8416 all the dayH3117 long.

Let destructionH7722 comeH935 upon him at unawaresH3045+H3808; and let his netH7568 that he hath hidH2934 catchH3920 himself: into that very destructionH7722 let him fallH5307. {at…: Heb. which he knoweth not of}

For I heardH8085 the defamingH1681 of manyH7227, fearH4032 on every sideH5439. ReportH5046, say they, and we will reportH5046 it. All my familiarsH582+H7965 watchedH8104 for my haltingH6763+H6761, saying, Peradventure he will be enticedH6601, and we shall prevailH3201 against him, and we shall takeH3947 our revengeH5360 on him. {All…: Heb. Every man of my peace}
They that sit inH3427 the gateH8179 speakH7878 against me; and I was the songH5058 of the drunkardsH8354+H7941. {drunkards: Heb. drinkers of strong drink}
My soulH5315 is amongH8432 lionsH3833: and I lieH7901 even among them that are set on fireH3857, even the sonsH1121 of menH120, whose teethH8127 are spearsH2595 and arrowsH2671, and their tongueH3956 a sharpH2299 swordH2719.
An evilH1100 diseaseH1697, say they, cleaveth fastH3332 unto him: and now that he liethH7901 he shall rise upH6965 no moreH3254. {An…: Heb. A thing of Belial}

But now they that are youngerH6810+H3117 than I have me in derisionH7832, whose fathersH1 I would have disdainedH3988 to have setH7896 with the dogsH3611 of my flockH6629. {younger…: Heb. of fewer days than I}
Yea, wheretoH4100 might the strengthH3581 of their handsH3027 profit me, in whom old ageH3624 was perishedH6?

Who cut upH6998 mallowsH4408 by the bushesH7880, and juniperH7574 rootsH8328 for their meatH3899.
They were driven forthH1644 from amongH1460 men, (they criedH7321 after them as after a thiefH1590;)
To dwellH7931 in the cliftsH6178 of the valleysH5158, in cavesH2356 of the earthH6083, and in the rocksH3710. {caves: Heb. holes}
Among the bushesH7880 they brayedH5101; under the nettlesH2738 they were gathered togetherH5596.
They were childrenH1121 of foolsH5036, yea, childrenH1121 of base menH8034: they were vilerH5217 than the earthH776. {base…: Heb. men of no name}
And now am I their songH5058, yea, I am their bywordH4405.
They abhorH8581 me, they flee farH7368 from me, and spareH2820 not to spitH7536 in my faceH6440. {and…: Heb. and withhold not spittle from}

ThenG5119 the soldiersG4757 of the governorG2232 tookG3880 JesusG2424 intoG1519 the common hallG4232, and gatheredG4863 untoG1909 himG846 the wholeG3650 bandG4686 of soldiers. {common hall: or, governor's house}
AndG2532 they strippedG1562 himG846, and put onG4060 himG846 a scarletG2847 robeG5511.
AndG2532 when they had plattedG4120 a crownG4735 ofG1537 thornsG173, they putG2007 it uponG1909 hisG846 headG2776, andG2532 a reedG2563 inG1909 hisG846 right handG1188: andG2532 they bowed the kneeG1120 beforeG1715 himG846, and mockedG1702 himG846, sayingG3004, HailG5463, KingG935 of the JewsG2453!
AndG2532 they spitG1716 uponG1519 himG846, and tookG2983 the reedG2563, andG2532 smoteG5180 himG846 onG1519 the headG2776.
SayingH559, GodH430 hath forsakenH5800 him: persecuteH7291 and takeH8610 him; for there is none to deliverH5337 him.
AndG1161 they that passed byG3899 reviledG987 himG846, waggingG2795 theirG846 headsG2776,
AndG2532 sayingG3004, Thou that destroyestG2647 the templeG3485, andG2532 buildestG3618 it inG1722 threeG5140 daysG2250, saveG4982 thyselfG4572. IfG1487 thou beG1488 the SonG5207 of GodG2316, come downG2597 fromG575 the crossG4716.
LikewiseG3668 alsoG2532 the chief priestsG749 mockingG1702 him, withG3326 the scribesG1122 andG2532 eldersG4245, saidG3004,
He savedG4982 othersG243; himselfG1438 he cannotG3756+G1410 saveG4982. IfG1487 he beG2076 the KingG935 of IsraelG2474, let himG2597 nowG3568 come downG2597 fromG575 the crossG4716, andG2532 we will believeG4100 himG846.
He trustedG3982 inG1909 GodG2316; let him deliverG4506 himG846 nowG3568, ifG1487 he will haveG2309 himG846: forG1063 he saidG2036+G3754, I amG1510 the SonG5207 of GodG2316.
The thievesG3027 alsoG2532, whichG3588 were crucifiedG4957 with himG846, castG3679 the sameG846 in hisG846 teethG3679.
If I rejoicedH8055 at the destructionH6365 of him that hatedH8130 me, or lifted upH5782 myself when evilH7451 foundH4672 him:
AndG2532 someG5100 beganG756 to spitG1716 on himG846, andG2532 to coverG4028 hisG846 faceG4383, andG2532 to buffetG2852 himG846, andG2532 to sayG3004 unto himG846, ProphesyG4395: andG2532 the servantsG5257 did strikeG906 himG846 with the palms of their handsG4475.
Whoso mockethH3932 the poorH7326 reproachethH2778 his MakerH6213: and he that is gladH8056 at calamitiesH343 shall not be unpunishedH5352. {unpunished: Heb. held innocent}
ButG1161 the JewsG2453 which believed notG544, moved with envyG2206+G2532, took unto themG4355 certainG5100 lewdG4190 fellowsG435 of the baser sortG60, andG2532 gathered a companyG3792, and set allG2350 the cityG4172 on an uproarG2350, andG5037 assaultedG2186 the houseG3614 of JasonG2394, and soughtG2212 to bringG71 themG846 outG1519 to the peopleG1218.
