Psalm 35:22-28
New International Version
Psalm 35:22-28
New International Version
22 Lord, you have seen(A) this; do not be silent.
Do not be far(B) from me, Lord.
23 Awake,(C) and rise(D) to my defense!
Contend(E) for me, my God and Lord.
24 Vindicate me in your righteousness, Lord my God;
do not let them gloat(F) over me.
25 Do not let them think, “Aha,(G) just what we wanted!”
or say, “We have swallowed him up.”(H)
26 May all who gloat(I) over my distress(J)
be put to shame(K) and confusion;
may all who exalt themselves over me(L)
be clothed with shame and disgrace.
27 May those who delight in my vindication(M)
shout for joy(N) and gladness;
may they always say, “The Lord be exalted,
who delights(O) in the well-being of his servant.”(P)

King James Version
Psalm 35:22-28
King James Version
22 This thou hast seen, O Lord: keep not silence: O Lord, be not far from me.
23 Stir up thyself, and awake to my judgment, even unto my cause, my God and my Lord.
24 Judge me, O Lord my God, according to thy righteousness; and let them not rejoice over me.
25 Let them not say in their hearts, Ah, so would we have it: let them not say, We have swallowed him up.
26 Let them be ashamed and brought to confusion together that rejoice at mine hurt: let them be clothed with shame and dishonour that magnify themselves against me.
27 Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favour my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, Let the Lord be magnified, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant.
28 And my tongue shall speak of thy righteousness and of thy praise all the day long.
