Salmos 35
Schlachter-Bibel 1951
1Von David. HERR, hadere mit meinen Haderern, streite mit denen, die wider mich streiten!
2Ergreife Schild und Tartsche und erhebe dich, mir zu helfen!
3Zücke den Speer und tritt meinen Verfolgern entgegen; sprich zu meiner Seele: Dein Heil bin ich!
4Es müssen beschämt und zuschanden werden, die mir nach dem Leben trachten, es sollen zurückweichen und schamrot werden, die mein Unglück wollen.
5Sie müssen werden wie Spreu vor dem Winde, und der Engel des HERRN vertreibe sie!
6Ihr Weg sei finster und glatt, und der Engel des HERRN verfolge sie!
7Denn sie haben mir ohne Ursache ihr Netz gestellt, ohne allen Grund meiner Seele eine Grube gegraben.
8Möge ihn unversehens Unglück überfallen und das Netz, das er gestellt hat, ihn selber fangen, so daß er ins Verderben hineinfällt.
9Aber meine Seele soll sich freuen am HERRN und sich ergötzen an seinem Heil!
10Alle meine Gebeine sollen sagen: HERR, wer ist dir gleich, der du den Elenden errettest von dem, der ihm zu stark ist, und die Elenden und Armen von dem, der ihn beraubt?
11Es treten freche Zeugen auf, die mich über Dinge zur Rede stellen, wovon ich nichts weiß.
12Sie vergelten Gutes mit Bösem, bringen Vereinsamung über mich!
13Ich aber bekleidete mich, als sie krank waren, mit einem Sack; ich beugte meine Seele mit Fasten und betete gesenkten Hauptes für sie;
14ich benahm mich, als wäre es mein Freund, mein Bruder, und ging trauernd gebeugt einher, wie einer, der um seine Mutter leidträgt.
15Dennoch freuen sie sich über meinen Fall und rotten sich zusammen; Lästermäuler sammeln sich wider mich, ich weiß nicht warum; sie lästern und schweigen nicht.
16Mit gottlosen Schmarotzern fletschen sie die Zähne über mich.
17O Herr, wie lange willst du zusehen? Befreie meine Seele von ihrem Gebrüll, meine einsame von den Löwen!
18Ich will dir danken in der großen Gemeinde, unter zahlreichem Volk will ich dich rühmen.
19Es sollen sich nicht über mich freuen, die mir unter falschem Vorwand feind sind; meine Hasser sollen vergeblich mit den Augen zwinkern;
20denn sie reden nicht zum Frieden, sondern ersinnen Verleumdungen gegen die Stillen im Lande.
21Sie sperren ihr Maul weit über mich auf und rufen: «Ha, ha, unser Auge hat's gesehen!»
22Du hast es auch gesehen, o HERR; schweige nicht! Mein Herr, sei nicht ferne von mir!
23Wache auf und wehre dich für mein Recht, mein Gott, für meine Sache, o mein Herr!
24Richte mich nach deiner Gerechtigkeit, HERR, mein Gott, daß sie sich nicht freuen dürfen über mich,
25daß sie nicht sagen können in ihren Herzen: «Ei, es geht ja ganz nach Wunsch; wir haben ihn vertilgt!»
26Es müssen sich schämen und erröten alle, die sich meines Unglücks freuen; in Scham und Schande müssen sich kleiden, die wider mich großtun.
27Aber jauchzen und fröhlich sein sollen alle, die meine Rechtfertigung wünschen; sie sollen immerdar sagen: Der HERR sei hochgelobt, der das Heil seines Knechtes will!
28Und meine Zunge soll dichten von deiner Gerechtigkeit, allezeit von deinem Ruhm!
Reina-Valera 1909
1Salmo de David. DISPUTA, oh Jehová, con los que contra mí contienden; pelea con los que me combaten.
2Echa mano al escudo y al pavés, y levántate en mi ayuda.
3Y saca la lanza, cierra contra mis perseguidores; di á mi alma: Yo soy tu salud.
4Avergüéncense y confúndanse los que buscan mi alma: vuelvan atrás, y sean avergonzados los que mi mal intentan.
5Sean como el tamo delante del viento; y el ángel de Jehová los acose.
6Sea su camino oscuridad y resbaladeros; y el ángel de Jehová los persiga.
7Porque sin causa escondieron para mí su red en un hoyo; sin causa hicieron hoyo para mi alma.
8Véngale el quebrantamiento que no sepa, y su red que escondió lo prenda: con quebrantamiento en ella caiga.
9Y gócese mi alma en Jehová; y alégrese en su salud.
10Todos mis huesos dirán: Jehová, ¿quién como tú, que libras al afligido del más fuerte que él, y al pobre y menesteroso del que le despoja?
11Levantáronse testigos falsos; demandáronme lo que no sabía;
12Volviéronme mal por bien, para abatir á mi alma.
13Mas yo, cuando ellos enfermaron, me vestí de saco; afligí con ayuno mi alma, y mi oración se revolvía en mi seno.
14Como por mi compañero, como por mi hermano andaba; como el que trae luto por madre, enlutado me humillaba.
15Pero ellos se alegraron en mi adversidad, y se juntaron; juntáronse contra mí gentes despreciables, y yo no lo entendía: despedazábanme, y no cesaban;
16Con los lisonjeros escarnecedores truhanes, crujiendo sobre mí sus dientes.
17Señor, ¿hasta cuándo verás esto? Recobra mi alma de sus quebrantamientos, mi única de los leones.
18Te confesaré en grande congregación; te alabaré entre numeroso pueblo.
19No se alegren de mí mis enemigos injustos: ni los que me aborrecen sin causa hagan del ojo.
20Porque no hablan paz; y contra los mansos de la tierra piensan palabras engañosas.
21Y ensancharon sobre mí su boca; dijeron: ¡Ea, ea, nuestros ojos lo han visto!
22Tú lo has visto, oh Jehová; no calles: Señor, de mí no te alejes.
23Muévete y despierta para mi juicio, para mi causa, Dios mío y Señor mío.
24Júzgame conforme á tu justicia, Jehová Dios mío; y no se alegren de mí.
25No digan en su corazón: ¡Ea, alma nuestra! No digan: ¡Hémoslo devorado!
26Avergüéncense, y sean confundidos á una los que de mi mal se alegran: vístanse de vergüenza y de confusión los que se engrandecen contra mí.
27Canten y alégrense los que están á favor de mi justa causa, y digan siempre: Sea ensalzado Jehová, que ama la paz de su siervo.
28Y mi lengua hablará de tu justicia, y de tu loor todo el día.
King James Version
1Plead my cause, O LORD, with them that strive with me: fight against them that fight against me.
2Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for mine help.
3Draw out also the spear, and stop the way against them that persecute me: say unto my soul, I am thy salvation.
4Let them be confounded and put to shame that seek after my soul: let them be turned back and brought to confusion that devise my hurt.
5Let them be as chaff before the wind: and let the angel of the LORD chase them.
6Let their way be dark and slippery: and let the angel of the LORD persecute them.
7For without cause have they hid for me their net in a pit, which without cause they have digged for my soul.
8Let destruction come upon him at unawares; and let his net that he hath hid catch himself: into that very destruction let him fall.
9And my soul shall be joyful in the LORD: it shall rejoice in his salvation.
10All my bones shall say, LORD, who is like unto thee, which deliverest the poor from him that is too strong for him, yea, the poor and the needy from him that spoileth him?
11False witnesses did rise up; they laid to my charge things that I knew not.
12They rewarded me evil for good to the spoiling of my soul.
13But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth: I humbled my soul with fasting; and my prayer returned into mine own bosom.
14I behaved myself as though he had been my friend or brother: I bowed down heavily, as one that mourneth for his mother.
15But in mine adversity they rejoiced, and gathered themselves together: yea, the abjects gathered themselves together against me, and I knew it not; they did tear me, and ceased not:
16With hypocritical mockers in feasts, they gnashed upon me with their teeth.
17Lord, how long wilt thou look on? rescue my soul from their destructions, my darling from the lions.
18I will give thee thanks in the great congregation: I will praise thee among much people.
19Let not them that are mine enemies wrongfully rejoice over me: neither let them wink with the eye that hate me without a cause.
20For they speak not peace: but they devise deceitful matters against them that are quiet in the land.
21Yea, they opened their mouth wide against me, and said, Aha, aha, our eye hath seen it.
22This thou hast seen, O LORD: keep not silence: O Lord, be not far from me.
23Stir up thyself, and awake to my judgment, even unto my cause, my God and my Lord.
24Judge me, O LORD my God, according to thy righteousness; and let them not rejoice over me.
25Let them not say in their hearts, Ah, so would we have it: let them not say, We have swallowed him up.
26Let them be ashamed and brought to confusion together that rejoice at mine hurt: let them be clothed with shame and dishonour that magnify themselves against me.
27Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favour my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, Let the LORD be magnified, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant.
28And my tongue shall speak of thy righteousness and of thy praise all the day long.
World English Bible
1Contend, LORD, with those who contend with me. Fight against those who fight against me.
2Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for my help.
3Brandish the spear and block those who pursue me. Tell my soul, “I am your salvation.”
4Let those who seek after my soul be disappointed and brought to dishonor. Let those who plot my ruin be turned back and confounded.
5Let them be as chaff before the wind, the LORD’s angel driving them on.
6Let their way be dark and slippery, the LORD’s angel pursuing them.
7For without cause they have hidden their net in a pit for me. Without cause they have dug a pit for my soul.
8Let destruction come on him unawares. Let his net that he has hidden catch himself. Let him fall into that destruction.
9My soul shall be joyful in the LORD. It shall rejoice in his salvation.
10All my bones shall say, “LORD, who is like you, who delivers the poor from him who is too strong for him; yes, the poor and the needy from him who robs him?”
11Unrighteous witnesses rise up. They ask me about things that I don’t know about.
12They reward me evil for good, to the bereaving of my soul.
13But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth. I afflicted my soul with fasting. My prayer returned into my own bosom.
14I behaved myself as though it had been my friend or my brother. I bowed down mourning, as one who mourns his mother.
15But in my adversity, they rejoiced, and gathered themselves together. The attackers gathered themselves together against me, and I didn’t know it. They tore at me, and didn’t cease.
16Like the profane mockers in feasts, they gnashed their teeth at me.
17Lord, how long will you look on? Rescue my soul from their destruction, my precious life from the lions.
18I will give you thanks in the great assembly. I will praise you among many people.
19Don’t let those who are my enemies wrongfully rejoice over me; neither let those who hate me without a cause wink their eyes.
20For they don’t speak peace, but they devise deceitful words against those who are quiet in the land.
21Yes, they opened their mouth wide against me. They said, “Aha! Aha! Our eye has seen it!”
22You have seen it, LORD. Don’t keep silent. Lord, don’t be far from me.
23Wake up! Rise up to defend me, my God! My Lord, contend for me!
24Vindicate me, LORD my God, according to your righteousness. Don’t let them gloat over me.
25Don’t let them say in their heart, “Aha! That’s the way we want it!” Don’t let them say, “We have swallowed him up!”
26Let them be disappointed and confounded together who rejoice at my calamity. Let them be clothed with shame and dishonor who magnify themselves against me.
27Let those who favor my righteous cause shout for joy and be glad. Yes, let them say continually, “May the LORD be magnified, who has pleasure in the prosperity of his servant!”
28My tongue shall talk about your righteousness and about your praise all day long.
