Psalm 35

A psalm of David.

1 O LORD, oppose those who oppose me.
Fight those who fight against me.2 Put on your armor, and take up your shield.
Prepare for battle, and come to my aid.3 Lift up your spear and javelin
against those who pursue me.
Let me hear you say,
“I will give you victory!”4 Bring shame and disgrace on those trying to kill me;
turn them back and humiliate those who want to harm me.5 Blow them away like chaff in the wind—
a wind sent by the angel of the LORD.6 Make their path dark and slippery,
with the angel of the LORD pursuing them.7 I did them no wrong, but they laid a trap for me.
I did them no wrong, but they dug a pit to catch me.8 So let sudden ruin come upon them!
Let them be caught in the trap they set for me!
Let them be destroyed in the pit they dug for me.9 Then I will rejoice in the LORD.
I will be glad because he rescues me.10 With every bone in my body I will praise him:
“LORD, who can compare with you?
Who else rescues the helpless from the strong?
Who else protects the helpless and poor from those who rob them?”11 Malicious witnesses testify against me.
They accuse me of crimes I know nothing about.12 They repay me evil for good.
I am sick with despair.13 Yet when they were ill, I grieved for them.
I denied myself by fasting for them,
but my prayers returned unanswered.14 I was sad, as though they were my friends or family,
as if I were grieving for my own mother.15 But they are glad now that I am in trouble;
they gleefully join together against me.
I am attacked by people I don’t even know;
they slander me constantly.16 They mock me and call me names;
they snarl at me.17 How long, O Lord, will you look on and do nothing?
Rescue me from their fierce attacks.
Protect my life from these lions!18 Then I will thank you in front of the great assembly.
I will praise you before all the people.19 Don’t let my treacherous enemies rejoice over my defeat.
Don’t let those who hate me without cause gloat over my sorrow.20 They don’t talk of peace;
they plot against innocent people who mind their own business.21 They shout, “Aha! Aha!
With our own eyes we saw him do it!”22 O LORD, you know all about this.
Do not stay silent.
Do not abandon me now, O Lord.23 Wake up! Rise to my defense!
Take up my case, my God and my Lord.24 Declare me not guilty, O LORD my God, for you give justice.
Don’t let my enemies laugh about me in my troubles.25 Don’t let them say, “Look, we got what we wanted!
Now we will eat him alive!”26 May those who rejoice at my troubles
be humiliated and disgraced.
May those who triumph over me
be covered with shame and dishonor.27 But give great joy to those who came to my defense.
Let them continually say, “Great is the LORD,
who delights in blessing his servant with peace!”28 Then I will proclaim your justice,
and I will praise you all day long.

Psalm 36

For the choir director: A psalm of David, the servant of the LORD.

1 Sin whispers to the wicked, deep within their hearts.
They have no fear of God at all.2 In their blind conceit,
they cannot see how wicked they really are.3 Everything they say is crooked and deceitful.
They refuse to act wisely or do good.4 They lie awake at night, hatching sinful plots.
Their actions are never good.
They make no attempt to turn from evil.5 Your unfailing love, O LORD, is as vast as the heavens;
your faithfulness reaches beyond the clouds.6 Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains,
your justice like the ocean depths.
You care for people and animals alike, O LORD.7 How precious is your unfailing love, O God!
All humanity finds shelter
in the shadow of your wings.8 You feed them from the abundance of your own house,
letting them drink from your river of delights.9 For you are the fountain of life,
the light by which we see.10 Pour out your unfailing love on those who love you;
give justice to those with honest hearts.11 Don’t let the proud trample me
or the wicked push me around.12 Look! Those who do evil have fallen!
They are thrown down, never to rise again.

Psalm 37

A psalm of David.

1 Don’t worry about the wicked
or envy those who do wrong.2 For like grass, they soon fade away.
Like spring flowers, they soon wither.3 Trust in the LORD and do good.
Then you will live safely in the land and prosper.4 Take delight in the LORD,
and he will give you your heart’s desires.5 Commit everything you do to the LORD.
Trust him, and he will help you.6 He will make your innocence radiate like the dawn,
and the justice of your cause will shine like the noonday sun.7 Be still in the presence of the LORD,
and wait patiently for him to act.
Don’t worry about evil people who prosper
or fret about their wicked schemes.8 Stop being angry!
Turn from your rage!
Do not lose your temper—
it only leads to harm.9 For the wicked will be destroyed,
but those who trust in the LORD will possess the land.10 Soon the wicked will disappear.
Though you look for them, they will be gone.11 The lowly will possess the land
and will live in peace and prosperity.12 The wicked plot against the godly;
they snarl at them in defiance.13 But the Lord just laughs,
for he sees their day of judgment coming.14 The wicked draw their swords
and string their bows
to kill the poor and the oppressed,
to slaughter those who do right.15 But their swords will stab their own hearts,
and their bows will be broken.16 It is better to be godly and have little
than to be evil and rich.17 For the strength of the wicked will be shattered,
but the LORD takes care of the godly.18 Day by day the LORD takes care of the innocent,
and they will receive an inheritance that lasts forever.19 They will not be disgraced in hard times;
even in famine they will have more than enough.20 But the wicked will die.
The LORD’s enemies are like flowers in a field—
they will disappear like smoke.21 The wicked borrow and never repay,
but the godly are generous givers.22 Those the LORD blesses will possess the land,
but those he curses will die.23 The LORD directs the steps of the godly.
He delights in every detail of their lives.24 Though they stumble, they will never fall,
for the LORD holds them by the hand.25 Once I was young, and now I am old.
Yet I have never seen the godly abandoned
or their children begging for bread.26 The godly always give generous loans to others,
and their children are a blessing.27 Turn from evil and do good,
and you will live in the land forever.28 For the LORD loves justice,
and he will never abandon the godly.
He will keep them safe forever,
but the children of the wicked will die.29 The godly will possess the land
and will live there forever.30 The godly offer good counsel;
they teach right from wrong.31 They have made God’s law their own,
so they will never slip from his path.32 The wicked wait in ambush for the godly,
looking for an excuse to kill them.33 But the LORD will not let the wicked succeed
or let the godly be condemned when they are put on trial.34 Put your hope in the LORD.
Travel steadily along his path.
He will honor you by giving you the land.
You will see the wicked destroyed.35 I have seen wicked and ruthless people
flourishing like a tree in its native soil.36 But when I looked again, they were gone!
Though I searched for them, I could not find them!37 Look at those who are honest and good,
for a wonderful future awaits those who love peace.38 But the rebellious will be destroyed;
they have no future.39 The LORD rescues the godly;
he is their fortress in times of trouble.40 The LORD helps them,
rescuing them from the wicked.
He saves them,
and they find shelter in him.
