求耶和华拯救惩罚其敌

35 大卫的诗。

耶和华啊,与我相争的,求你与他们相争;与我相战的,求你与他们相战。
拿着大小的盾牌,起来帮助我;
抽出枪来,挡住那追赶我的。求你对我的灵魂说:“我是拯救你的!”
愿那寻索我命的,蒙羞受辱;愿那谋害我的,退后羞愧。
愿他们像风前的糠,有耶和华的使者赶逐他们。
愿他们的道路又暗又滑,有耶和华的使者追赶他们。
因他们无故地为我暗设网罗,无故地挖坑要害我的性命。
愿灾祸忽然临到他身上,愿他暗设的网缠住自己,愿他落在其中遭灾祸。
我的心必靠耶和华快乐,靠他的救恩高兴。
10 我的骨头都要说:“耶和华啊,谁能像你,救护困苦人脱离那比他强壮的,救护困苦穷乏人脱离那抢夺他的?”
11 凶恶的见证人起来,盘问我所不知道的事。
12 他们向我以恶报善,使我的灵魂孤苦。
13 至于我,当他们有病的时候,我便穿麻衣,禁食刻苦己心,我所求的都归到自己的怀中。
14 我这样行,好像他是我的朋友,我的弟兄;我屈身悲哀,如同人为母亲哀痛。
15 我在患难中,他们却欢喜,大家聚集。我所不认识的那些下流人聚集攻击我,他们不住地把我撕裂。
16 他们如同席上好戏笑的狂妄人,向我咬牙。
17 主啊,你看着不理要到几时呢?求你救我的灵魂脱离他们的残害,救我的生命[a]脱离少壮狮子。
18 我在大会中要称谢你,在众民中要赞美你。
19 求你不容那无理与我为仇的向我夸耀,不容那无故恨我的向我挤眼。
20 因为他们不说和平话,倒想出诡诈的言语,害地上的安静人。
21 他们大大张口攻击我,说:“啊哈!啊哈!我们的眼已经看见了!”
22 耶和华啊,你已经看见了,求你不要闭口。主啊,求你不要远离我。
23 我的神我的主啊,求你奋兴醒起,判清我的事,申明我的冤。
24 耶和华我的神啊,求你按你的公义判断我,不容他们向我夸耀。
25 不容他们心里说:“阿哈!遂我们的心愿了!”不容他们说:“我们已经把他吞了!”
26 愿那喜欢我遭难的一同抱愧蒙羞,愿那向我妄自尊大的披惭愧,蒙羞辱。
27 愿那喜悦我冤屈得申[b]的欢呼快乐,愿他们常说:“当尊耶和华为大,耶和华喜悦他的仆人平安。”
28 我的舌头要终日论说你的公义,时常赞美你。

祈求 神伸冤对付仇敌

大卫的诗。

35 耶和华啊!与我相争的,求你与他们相争;

与我作战的,求你与他们作战。(本节在《马索拉文本》包括细字标题)

求你紧握大小的盾牌,

起来帮助我。

拔出矛枪战斧,

迎击那些追赶我的;

求你对我说:

“我是你的拯救。”

愿那些寻索我命的,蒙羞受辱;

愿设计陷害我的,退后羞愧。

愿他们像风前的糠秕,

有耶和华的使者驱逐他们。

愿他们的路又暗又滑,

有耶和华的使者追赶他们。

因为他们无故为我暗设网罗,

无故挖坑要陷害我的性命。

愿毁灭在不知不觉间临到他身上,

愿他暗设的网罗缠住自己,

愿他落在其中遭毁灭。

我的心必因耶和华快乐,

因他的救恩高兴。

10 我全身的骨头都要说:

“耶和华啊!有谁像你呢?

你搭救困苦的人,脱离那些比他强盛的;

搭救困苦和穷乏的人,脱离那些抢夺他的。”

11 强暴的见证人起来,

盘问我所不知道的事。

12 他们对我以恶报善,

使我孤苦无依。

13 至于我,他们有病的时候,

我就穿上麻衣,

禁食刻苦己心;

我心里也不住地祷告(“我心里也不住地祷告”原文作“我的祷告都回到自己的怀中”)。

14 我往来奔走,看他们像自己的朋友兄弟;

我哀痛屈身,如同哀悼母亲。

15 但我跌倒的时候,他们竟聚集一起欢庆;

我素不相识的聚集一起攻击我,

他们不住地欺凌我。

16 他们以最粗鄙的话讥笑我(按照《马索拉文本》,本句应作“他们好象筵席上狂妄的讥笑者”;现参照《七十士译本》翻译),

向我咬牙切齿。

17 主啊!你还要看多久?

求你救我的性命脱离他们的残害,

救我的生命脱离少壮狮子。

18 我要在大会中称谢你,

我要在众民中赞美你。

19 求你不容那些无理与我为敌的,向我夸耀;

不让那些无故恨我的,向我挤眼。

20 因为他们不说和睦的话,

却计划诡诈的事,

陷害世上的安静人。

21 他们张大嘴巴攻击我,

说:“啊哈!啊哈!

我们亲眼看见了。”

22 耶和华啊!你已经看见了,求你不要缄默;

主啊!求你不要远离我。

23 我的 神,我的主啊!

求你激动醒起,为我伸冤辩护。

24 耶和华我的 神啊!求你按着你的公义判断我,

不容他们向我夸耀。

25 不要让他们心里说:

“啊哈!这正是我们的心愿!”

不要让他们说:“我们把他吞下去了!”

26 愿那些喜欢我遭难的,

一同蒙羞抱愧;

愿那些对我妄自尊大的,

都披上惭愧和耻辱。

27 愿那些喜悦我冤屈昭雪的,

都欢呼快乐;

愿他们不住地说:

“要尊耶和华为大,他喜悦他的仆人平安。”

28 我的舌头要述说你的公义,

终日赞美你。

Yahweh Be Magnified

Of David.

35 Contend, O Yahweh, with those who (A)contend with me;
Fight against those who (B)fight against me.
Take hold of [a](C)shield and large shield
And rise up for (D)my help.
Draw also the spear and [b]the battle-axe to meet those who pursue me;
Say to my soul, “I am (E)your salvation.”
Let those be (F)ashamed and dishonored who seek my [c]life;
Let those who devise evil against me be (G)turned back and humiliated.
Let them be (H)like chaff before the wind,
With the angel of Yahweh driving them on.
Let their way be dark and (I)slippery,
With the angel of Yahweh pursuing them.
For (J)without cause they (K)hid their net for me;
Without cause they dug a [d]pit for my soul.
Let (L)destruction, which he does not know, come upon him,
And (M)let the net, which he hid, catch him;
Let him fall into it in (N)destruction.

And my soul shall (O)rejoice in Yahweh;
It shall (P)be joyful in His salvation.
10 All my (Q)bones will say, “Yahweh, (R)who is like You,
Who delivers the afflicted from him (S)who is too strong for him,
And (T)the afflicted and the needy from him who robs him?”
11 (U)Malicious witnesses rise up,
Who ask me of things that I do not know.
12 They (V)repay me evil for good,
It is bereavement to my soul.
13 But as for me, (W)when they were sick, my (X)clothing was sackcloth;
I (Y)humbled my soul with fasting,
And my (Z)prayer kept returning to my bosom.
14 I walked about as though it were my friend or brother;
I (AA)bowed down [e]mourning, as one who sorrows for a mother.
15 But (AB)at my [f]stumbling they were glad and gathered themselves together;
The [g](AC)smiters whom I did not know gathered together against me,
They (AD)tore at me and never were silent.
16 Amongst the godless jesters at a feast,
They (AE)gnashed at me with their teeth.

17 Lord, (AF)how long will You look on?
Bring back my soul (AG)from their ravages,
My (AH)only life from the lions.
18 I will (AI)give You thanks in the great assembly;
I will (AJ)praise You among a mighty people.
19 (AK)Let those who are wrongfully (AL)my enemies not be glad over me;
Nor let those (AM)who hate me without cause [h](AN)wink maliciously.
20 For they do not speak peace,
But they devise (AO)deceitful words against those who are quiet in the land.
21 They (AP)opened their mouth wide against me;
They said, “(AQ)Aha, aha, our eyes have seen it!”

22 (AR)You have seen it, O Yahweh, (AS)do not keep silent;
O Lord, (AT)do not be far from me.
23 (AU)Stir up Yourself, and awake to my justice
And to my cause, my God and my Lord.
24 (AV)Judge me, O Yahweh my God, according to Your righteousness,
And (AW)do not let them be glad over me.
25 Do not let them say in their heart, “(AX)Aha, our desire!”
Do not let them say, “We have (AY)swallowed him up!”
26 Let (AZ)those be ashamed and humiliated altogether who are glad at the evil done to me;
Let those be (BA)clothed with shame and dishonor who (BB)magnify themselves over me.

27 Let them (BC)shout for joy and be glad, who delight in (BD)my righteousness;
And (BE)let them say continually, “Yahweh be magnified,
Who (BF)delights in the peace of His slave.”
28 And (BG)my tongue shall utter Your righteousness
And Your praise all day long.

Psalm 35

Of David.

Contend,(A) Lord, with those who contend with me;
    fight(B) against those who fight against me.
Take up shield(C) and armor;
    arise(D) and come to my aid.(E)
Brandish spear(F) and javelin[a](G)
    against those who pursue me.
Say to me,
    “I am your salvation.(H)

May those who seek my life(I)
    be disgraced(J) and put to shame;(K)
may those who plot my ruin
    be turned back(L) in dismay.
May they be like chaff(M) before the wind,
    with the angel of the Lord(N) driving them away;
may their path be dark and slippery,
    with the angel of the Lord pursuing them.

Since they hid their net(O) for me without cause(P)
    and without cause dug a pit(Q) for me,
may ruin overtake them by surprise—(R)
    may the net they hid entangle them,
    may they fall into the pit,(S) to their ruin.
Then my soul will rejoice(T) in the Lord
    and delight in his salvation.(U)
10 My whole being will exclaim,
    “Who is like you,(V) Lord?
You rescue the poor from those too strong(W) for them,
    the poor and needy(X) from those who rob them.”

11 Ruthless witnesses(Y) come forward;
    they question me on things I know nothing about.
12 They repay me evil for good(Z)
    and leave me like one bereaved.
13 Yet when they were ill, I put on sackcloth(AA)
    and humbled myself with fasting.(AB)
When my prayers returned to me unanswered,
14     I went about mourning(AC)
    as though for my friend or brother.
I bowed my head in grief
    as though weeping for my mother.
15 But when I stumbled, they gathered in glee;(AD)
    assailants gathered against me without my knowledge.
    They slandered(AE) me without ceasing.
16 Like the ungodly they maliciously mocked;[b](AF)
    they gnashed their teeth(AG) at me.

17 How long,(AH) Lord, will you look on?
    Rescue me from their ravages,
    my precious life(AI) from these lions.(AJ)
18 I will give you thanks in the great assembly;(AK)
    among the throngs(AL) I will praise you.(AM)
19 Do not let those gloat over me
    who are my enemies(AN) without cause;
do not let those who hate me without reason(AO)
    maliciously wink the eye.(AP)
20 They do not speak peaceably,
    but devise false accusations(AQ)
    against those who live quietly in the land.
21 They sneer(AR) at me and say, “Aha! Aha!(AS)
    With our own eyes we have seen it.”

22 Lord, you have seen(AT) this; do not be silent.
    Do not be far(AU) from me, Lord.
23 Awake,(AV) and rise(AW) to my defense!
    Contend(AX) for me, my God and Lord.
24 Vindicate me in your righteousness, Lord my God;
    do not let them gloat(AY) over me.
25 Do not let them think, “Aha,(AZ) just what we wanted!”
    or say, “We have swallowed him up.”(BA)

26 May all who gloat(BB) over my distress(BC)
    be put to shame(BD) and confusion;
may all who exalt themselves over me(BE)
    be clothed with shame and disgrace.
27 May those who delight in my vindication(BF)
    shout for joy(BG) and gladness;
may they always say, “The Lord be exalted,
    who delights(BH) in the well-being of his servant.”(BI)

28 My tongue will proclaim your righteousness,(BJ)
    your praises all day long.(BK)
