1 Plead my cause, O Lord, with them that strive with me:fight against them that fight against me.
2 Take hold of shield and buckler,and stand up for mine help.
3 Draw out also the spear,and stop the way against them that persecute me:say unto my soul, I am thy salvation.
4 Let them be confounded and put to shamethat seek after my soul:let them be turned back and brought to confusionthat devise my hurt.
5 Let them be as chaff before the wind:and let the angel of the Lord chase them.
