Psalm 35:1-28 The Lord the Avenger of His People
A Psalm of David.

Psalm 35:1-3
1 Plead my cause (Contend for me), O Lord, with those who strive 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
Also draw out the spear,
And stop those who pursue me.
Say to my soul,
“I am your salvation.”

Psalm 35:9-10
9
And my soul shall be joyful in the Lord;
It shall rejoice in His salvation.
10
All my bones shall say,
“Lord, who 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?”

Psalm 35:17-18

Lord, how long will You look on?
Rescue me from their destructions,
My precious life from the lions.
18
I will give You thanks in the great assembly;
I will praise You among many people.

Psalm 35:26
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.

Psalm 37:27-28
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.”
28
And my tongue shall speak of Your righteousness
And of Your praise all the day long.
