"Wake up! Rise up to defend me, my God! My Lord, contend for me!"
— Psalms 35:23, World English Bible
“Stir up thyself, and awake to my judgment, even unto my cause, my God and my Lord.”
“Stir up thyself, and awake to the justice due unto me, Even unto my cause, my God and my Lord. ”
“Rouse yourself, wake up and vindicate me! My God and Lord, defend my just cause!”
“Be awake, O Lord, be moved to take up my cause, my God and my Lord.”
“Stir up thyself, and awake to my judgment, even unto my cause, my God and my Lord.”
For they don't speak peace, but they devise deceitful words against those who are quiet in the land.
Yes, they opened their mouth wide against me. They said, "Aha! Aha! Our eye has seen it!"
You have seen it, Yahweh. Don't keep silent. Lord, don't be far from me.
Wake up! Rise up to defend me, my God! My Lord, contend for me!
Vindicate me, Yahweh my God, according to your righteousness. Don't let them gloat over me.
Don'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!"
Let them be disappointed and confounded together who rejoice at my calamity. Let them be clothed with shame and dishonor who magnify themselves against me.
