Psalms 35:17-22 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

17. My Lord, how long will you watch this happen? Save my life from these people who are attacking me like lions and trying to destroy me.

18. I will praise you in the great assembly. I will praise you there among the crowds.

19. Don’t let my lying enemies keep on laughing at me. They have no reason to hate me. Surely they will be punished for their secret plans.

20. They have no friendly words for others, but plan ways to hurt those who want to live in peace.

21. They are telling lies about me. They say, “Aha! We know what you did!”

22. Lord, surely you can see what is happening. So don’t keep quiet. Lord, don’t leave me.
