Praying Psalm 35:1-10 | Psalm Bites | Episode 73

See below for the text of today's reading.

"Psalm Bites" is a daily devotional podcast in which we will read and pray through the entire book of Psalms in bite-sized portions. In other words, it's an audio bible for the Book of Psalms broken up into two-to-five-minute episodes with added opportunities to pray from the Word.

The format is simple: each episode, we...
1.) read the daily Psalm passage (usually no more than 15 verses),
2.) highlight one or more verses which we will re-read, and
3.) pray an extemporaneous prayer inspired by the reading.

It is our prayer that "Psalm Bites" will help you meditate on the Word and draw nearer to God each day.

Episode 73 reading: Psalm 35:1-10, NKJV (New King James Version)

A Psalm of David.

1 Plead my cause, O Lord, with those who strive with me;
Fight against those who fight against me.

2 Take hold of shield and buckler,
And stand up for my help.

3 Also draw out the spear,
And stop those who pursue me.
Say to my soul,
“I am your salvation.”

4 Let those be put to shame and brought to dishonor
Who seek after my life;
Let those be turned back and brought to confusion
Who plot my hurt.

5 Let them be like chaff before the wind,
And let the angel of the Lord chase them.

6 Let their way be dark and slippery,
And let the angel of the Lord pursue them.

7 For without cause they have hidden their net for me in a pit,
Which they have dug without cause for my life.

8 Let destruction come upon him unexpectedly,
And let his net that he has hidden catch himself;
Into that very destruction let him fall.

9 And my soul shall be joyful in the Lord;
It shall rejoice in His salvation.

10 All my bones shall say,
“Lord, who is like You,
Delivering the poor from him who is too strong for him,
Yes, the poor and the needy from him who plunders him?”
