Psalm 27:2

World Messianic Bible British Edition

When evildoers came at me to eat up my flesh, even my adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell.

See the chapter Copy

Why do you persecute me as God, and are not satisfied with my flesh?

if the men of my tent have not said, ‘Who can find one who has not been filled with his meat?’

They surrounded me like bees. They are quenched like the burning thorns. In the LORD’s name I cut them off.

Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and don’t call on the LORD?

The cords of death surrounded me. The floods of ungodliness made me afraid.

For dogs have surrounded me. A company of evildoers have enclosed me. They have pierced my hands and feet.

Arise, LORD! Save me, my God! For you have struck all of my enemies on the cheek bone. You have broken the teeth of the wicked.

Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and don’t call on God?

When my enemies turn back, they stumble and perish in your presence.

Many will stumble over it, fall, be broken, be snared, and be captured.”
