1 Contend, Lord, with those who contend with me;fight against those who fight against me.
2 Take up shield and armour;arise and come to my aid.
3 Brandish spear and javelinagainst those who pursue me.Say to me,‘I am your salvation.’
4 May those who seek my lifebe disgraced and put to shame;may those who plot my ruinbe turned back in dismay.
