1 Oppose those who oppose me, Lord,and fight those who fight against me!
2 Take your shield and armorand come to my rescue.
3 Lift up your spear and war axagainst 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!
6 May their path be dark and slipperywhile the angel of the Lord strikes them down!
7 Without any reason they laid a trap for meand dug a deep hole to catch me.
