Psalms 35:5-11

⁵May they be like dust before the wind; May the angel of the LORD drive them!

⁶May their way be dark and slippery, And may the angel of the LORD pursue them!

⁷For without cause they have laid for me a snare; Without cause they have digged for me a pit.

⁸May unforeseen destruction come upon them! May the snare which they have laid lay hold on themselves, And may they fall into destruction!

⁹Then shall my soul rejoice in the LORD; It shall exult in his protection.

¹⁰All my bones shall say, Who, O LORD! is like thee, Who dost rescue the afflicted from the oppressor, The afflicted and destitute from the spoiler?

¹¹False witnesses have risen up; They charge me with that which has not entered my mind.
