Psalm 35:7

Verse 7 of 28. The 35th of 150 chapters in Psalms, in Poetry and Wisdom.

3Brandish the spear and block those who pursue me. Tell my soul, “I am your salvation.”

4Let those who seek after my soul be disappointed and brought to dishonor. Let those who plot my ruin be turned back and confounded.

5Let them be as chaff before the wind, the LORD’s angel driving them on.

6Let their way be dark and slippery, the LORD’s angel pursuing them.

7For without cause they have hidden their net in a pit for me. Without cause they have dug a pit for my soul.

8Let destruction come on him unawares. Let his net that he has hidden catch himself. Let him fall into that destruction.

9My soul shall be joyful in the LORD. It shall rejoice in his salvation.

10All my bones shall say, “LORD, who is like you, who delivers the poor from him who is too strong for him; yes, the poor and the needy from him who robs him?”

11Unrighteous witnesses rise up. They ask me about things that I don’t know about.
