Psalm 35:1-5
Amplified Bible
Prayer for Rescue from Enemies.
A Psalm of David.
35 Contend, O Lord, with those who contend with me;
Fight against those who fight against me.
2
Take hold of shield and buckler ([a]small shield),
And stand up for my help.
3
Draw also the spear and javelin to meet those who pursue me.
Say to my soul, “I am your salvation.”
4
Let those be ashamed and dishonored who seek my life;
Let those be turned back [in defeat] and humiliated who plot evil against me.
5
Let them be [blown away] like chaff before the wind [worthless, without substance],
With the angel of the Lord driving them on.
