  Speaker 1: Psalm thirty five by David Contend Yahweh, with those who
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: contend with me, fight against those who fight against me.
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: my help. Brandish the spear and block those who pursue me.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: Tell my soul, I am your salvation. Let those who
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: seek after my soul be put to shame and brought
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: to dishonor. Let those who plot my ruin be turned
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: back and confounded. Let them be his chaff before the wind,
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: Yahweh's angel driving them on. Let their way be dark
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: and slippery, Yahweh's Angel pursuing them, for without cause, they
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: have hidden their net in a pit for me, without cause,
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: they have dug a pit for my soul. Let destruction
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: come on him unawares. Let his net that he is
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: hidden catch himself. Let him fall into that destruction. My
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: souls shall be joyful in Yahweh. It shall rejoice in
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: his salvation. All my bones shall say, Yahweh, who is
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: like you who delivers the poor from him who is
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: too strong for him? Yes, the poor and the needy
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: from him who robs him. Unrighteous witnesses rise up. They
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: ask me about things that I don't know about. They
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: reward me evil for good, to the bereaving of my soul.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: was sackcloth. I afflicted my soul with fasting my prayer
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: returned into my own bosom. I behaved myself as though
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: it had been my friend or my brother. I bowed down, mourning,
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: as one who mourns his mother. But in my adversity
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: they rejoiced and gathered themselves together. The attackers gathered themselves
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: together against me, and I didn't know it. They tore
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: at me and didn't cease, like the profane mockers in feast.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: They gnashed their teeth at me. Lord, how long will
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: you look on rescue my soul from their destruction, my
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: precious life from the lions. I will give you thanks
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: in the great assembly. I will praise you a mong
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: many people. Don't let those who are my enemies wrongfully
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: rejoice over me. Neither let them wink with the eye
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: who hate me without a cause. For they don't speak peace,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: but they devise deceitful words against those who are quiet
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: in the land. Yes, they opened their mouth wide against me.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: They said, aha, aha, our eye has seen it you
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: have seen it, Yahweh. Don't keep silent, Lord, don't be
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: far from me. Wake up, Rise up to defend me,
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: my God, My Lord, contend for me, vindicate me, Yahweh,
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: my God, according to your righteousness. Don't let them gloat
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: over me. Don't let them say in their heart, aha,
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: that's the way we want it. Don't let them say
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: we have swallowed him up. Let them be put to
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: shame and confounded together, who rejoice at my calamity. Let
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: them be clothed with shame and dishonor who magnify themselves
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: against me. Let them shout for joy and be glad
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: who favor my righteous cause. Yes, let them say continually Yahweh,
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: be magnified who has pleasure in the prosperity of his servant.
