KJV

NIV

1 Plead my cause, O LORD, with them that strive with me: fight against them that fight against me.
1 Contend, LORD, with those who contend with me; fight against those who fight against me.
2 Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for mine help.
2 Take up shield and armor; arise and come to my aid.
3 Draw out also the spear, and stop the way against them that persecute me: say unto my soul, I am thy salvation.
3 Brandish spear and javelinagainst those who pursue me. Say to me, “I am your salvation.”
4 Let them be confounded and put to shame that seek after my soul: let them be turned back and brought to confusion that devise my hurt.
4 May those who seek my life be disgraced and put to shame; may those who plot my ruin be turned back in dismay.
5 Let them be as chaff before the wind: and let the angel of the LORD chase them.
5 May they be like chaff before the wind, with the angel of the LORD driving them away;
6 Let their way be dark and slippery: and let the angel of the LORD persecute them.
6 may their path be dark and slippery, with the angel of the LORD pursuing them.
