Psalms 35:5 Context
3Draw out also the speare, and stop the way against them that persecute me: say vnto my soule, I am thy saluation. 4Let them be confounded and put to shame that seeke after my soule: let them be turned backe and brought to confusion, that deuise my hurt. 5Let them be as chaffe before the wind: and let the Angel of the Lord chase them. 6Let their way be darke and slippery, and let the Angel of the Lord persecute them. 7For without cause haue they hid for me their net in a pit, which without cause they haue digged for my soule.
