1 Oppose those who oppose me, Lord,and fight those who fight against me!
2 Take your shield and armourand come to my rescue.
3 Lift up your spear and your axeagainst those who pursue me.Promise that you will save me.
4 May those who try to kill mebe defeated and disgraced!May those who plot against mebe turned back and confused!
5 May they be like straw blown by the windas the angel of the Lord pursues them!
