Psalms 35:3-9 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

3. Take a spear and javelin and fight those who are chasing me. Tell me, “I will rescue you.”

4. Some people are trying to kill me. Disappoint them and make them ashamed. Make them turn and run away. They are planning to hurt me. Defeat and embarrass them.

5. Make them like chaff blown by the wind. Let them be chased by the Lord’S angel.

6. Make their road dark and slippery. Let the Lord’S angel chase them.

7. I did nothing wrong, but they tried to trap me. For no reason at all, they dug a pit to catch me.

8. So let them fall into their own traps. Let them stumble into their own nets. Let some unknown danger catch them.

9. Then I will rejoice in the Lord. I will be happy when he saves me.
