Psalms 34:18 - Psalms 35:5
18 The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.
19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous; but the Lord delivereth him out of them all.
20 He keepeth all his bones; not one of them is broken.
21 Evil shall slay the wicked; and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.
22 The Lord redeemeth the soul of his servants; and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate.
Psalms 35
Intro: David prayeth for safety. (A Psalm of David.)
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 shame that seek after my soul; let them be turned back and brought to confusion that devise my hurt.
5 Let them be as chaff before the wind; and let the angel of the Lord chase them.
