Psalm 35:2 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 35:2

Take hold of shield and buckler
Defensive weapons; not that the Lord stands in need of any of these to defend himself with: but the sense is, that he would be as these to David; as he was to him, and is to all his people; namely, their shield and buckler: he gives unto them the shield of salvation; he encompasses them about with his favour as with a shield, and keeps them by his power safe from all their enemies;

and stand up for mine help;
for which the Lord arises, and stands by his people, and against their enemies, delivering them out of their hands.

Psalm 35:2 In-Context

1 Defiéndeme, SEÑOR, de los que me atacan;combate a los que me combaten.

2 Toma tu adarga, tu escudo,y acude en mi ayuda.

3 Empuña la lanza y el hacha,y haz frente a los que me persiguen.Quiero oírte decir:«Yo soy tu salvación».

4 Queden confundidos y avergonzadoslos que procuran matarme;retrocedan humilladoslos que traman mi ruina.

5 Sean como la paja en el viento,acosados por el ángel del SEÑOR;
