Psalms 35
1
(34-1) <For David himself.> Judge thou, O Lord, them that wrong me: overthrow them that fight against me.
2
(34-2) Take hold of arms and shield: and rise up to help me.
3
(34-3) Bring out the sword, and shut up the way against them that persecute me: say to my soul: I am thy salvation.
4
(34-4) Let them be confounded and ashamed that seek after my soul. Let them be turned back and be confounded that devise evil against me.
5
(34-5) Let them become as dust before the wind: and let the angel of the Lord straiten them.
6
(34-6) Let their way become dark and slippery; and let the angel of the Lord pursue them.
7
(34-7) For without cause they have hidden their net for me unto destruction: without cause they have upbraided my soul.
8
(34-8) Let the snare which he knoweth not come upon him: and let the net which he hath hidden catch him: and into that very snare let them fall.
9
(34-9) But my soul shall rejoice in the Lord; and shall be delighted in his salvation.
10
(34-10) All my bones shall say: Lord, who is like to thee? Who deliverest the poor from the hand of them that are stronger than he; the needy and the poor from them that strip him.
11
(34-11) Unjust witnesses rising up have asked me things I knew not.
12
(34-12) They repaid me evil for good: to the depriving me of my soul.
13
(34-13) But as for me, when they were troublesome to me, I was clothed with haircloth. I humbled my soul with fasting; and my prayer shall be turned into my bosom.
14
(34-14) As a neighbour and as an own brother, so did I please: as one mourning and sorrowful so was I humbled.
15
(34-15) But they rejoiced against me, and came together: scourges were gathered together upon me, and I knew not.
16
(34-16) They were separated, and repented not: they tempted me, they scoffed at me with scorn: they gnashed upon me with their teeth.
17
(34-17) Lord, when wilt thou look upon me? rescue thou my soul from their malice: my only one from the lions.
18
(34-18) I will give thanks to thee in a great church; I will praise thee in a strong people.
19
(34-19) Let not them that are my enemies wrongfully rejoice over me: who have hated me without cause, and wink with the eyes.
20
(34-20) For they spoke indeed peaceably to me; and speaking in the anger of the earth they devised guile.
21
(34-21) And they opened their mouth wide against me; they said: Well done, well done, our eyes have seen it.
22
(34-22) Thou hast seen, O Lord, be not thou silent: O Lord, depart not from me.
23
(34-23) Arise, and be attentive to my judgment: to my cause, my God, and my Lord.
24
(34-24) Judge me, O Lord my God according to thy justice, and let them not rejoice over me.
25
(34-25) Let them not say in their hearts: It is well, it is well, to our mind: neither let them say: We have swallowed him up.
26
(34-26) Let them blush: and be ashamed to gether, who rejoice at my evils. Let them be clothed with confusion and shame, who speak great things against me.
27
(34-27) Let them rejoice and be glad, who are well pleased with my justice, and let them say always: The Lord be magnified, who delights in the peace of his servant.
28
(34-28) And my tongue shall meditate thy justice, thy praise all the day long.

Psalms 36
1
(35-1) <Unto the end, for the servant of God, David himself.> (35-2) The unjust hath said within himself, that he would sin: there is no fear of God before his eyes.
2
(35-3) For in his sight he hath done deceitfully, that his iniquity may be found unto hatred.
3
(35-4) The words of his mouth are iniquity and guile: he would not understand that he might do well.
4
(35-5) He hath devised iniquity on his bed, he hath set himself on every way that is not good: but evil he hath not hated.
5
(35-6) O Lord, thy mercy is in heaven, and thy truth reacheth even to the clouds.
6
(35-7) Thy justice is as the mountains of God, thy judgments are a great deep. Men and beasts thou wilt preserve, O Lord:
7
(35-8) O how hast thou multiplied thy mercy, O God! But the children of men shall put their trust under the covert of thy wings.
8
(35-9) They shall be inebriated with the plenty of thy house; and thou shalt make them drink of the torrent of thy pleasure.
9
(35-10) For with thee is the fountain of life; and in thy light we shall see light.
10
(35-11) Extend thy mercy to them that know thee, and thy justice to them that are right in heart.
11
(35-12) Let not the foot of pride come to me, and let not the hand of the sinner move me.
12
(35-13) There the workers of iniquity are fallen, they are cast out, and could not stand.
