Psalms 35:5-12 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

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.

10. With my whole self I will say, “Lord, there is no one like you. You protect the poor from those who are stronger. You save the poor and helpless from those who try to rob them.”

11. There are witnesses trying to harm me. They ask me questions that I know nothing about.

12. They pay me back evil for the good I have done. They make me so very sad.
