May those who seek my life be disgraced and put to shame; may those who plan to harm me be driven back and confounded.
Psalm 35:4 · BSB
The verses around it, from Psalm 35.
1 Of David. Contend with my opponents, O LORD; fight against those who fight against me.
2 Take up Your shield and buckler; arise and come to my aid.
3 Draw the spear and javelin against my pursuers; say to my soul: “I am your salvation.”
4 May those who seek my life be disgraced and put to shame; may those who plan to harm me be driven back and confounded.
5 May they be like chaff in the wind, as the angel of the LORD drives them away.
6 May their path be dark and slick, as the angel of the LORD pursues.
7 For without cause they laid their net for me; without reason they dug a pit for my soul.
8 May ruin befall them by surprise; may the net they hid ensnare them; may they fall into the hazard they created.
