3 Hold your spear to block the way of those who pursue me.Say to my soul, “I am your savior.”
4 Let those who seek my life be put to shame and disgraced.Let those who plan my downfall be turned back in confusion.
5 Let them be like husks blown by the windas the Messenger of the Lord chases them.
6 Let their path be dark and slipperyas the Messenger of the Lord pursues them.
7 For no reason they hid their net in a pit.For no reason they dug the pit ⌊to trap me⌋.
8 Let destruction surprise them.Let the net that they hid catch them.Let them fall into their own pit and be destroyed.
9 My soul will find joy in the Lordand be joyful about his salvation.
