I have been with you wherever you have gone, and I have destroyed all your enemies before your eyes. Now I will make your name as famous as anyone who has ever lived on the earth!

And as for these enemies of mine who didn’t want me to be their king— bring them in and execute them right here in front of me.’”

They surround me with hateful words and fight against me for no reason.I love them, but they try to destroy me with accusations even as I am praying for them!They repay evil for good, and hatred for my love.They say,“ Get an evil person to turn against him. Send an accuser to bring him to trial.When his case comes up for judgment, let him be pronounced guilty. Count his prayers as sins.Let his years be few; let someone else take his position.May his children become fatherless, and his wife a widow.May his children wander as beggars and be driven from their ruined homes.May creditors seize his entire estate, and strangers take all he has earned.Let no one be kind to him; let no one pity his fatherless children.May all his offspring die. May his family name be blotted out in the next generation.May the Lord never forget the sins of his fathers; may his mother’s sins never be erased from the record.May the Lord always remember these sins, and may his name disappear from human memory.For he refused all kindness to others; he persecuted the poor and needy, and he hounded the brokenhearted to death.He loved to curse others; now you curse him. He never blessed others; now don’t you bless him.Cursing is as natural to him as his clothing, or the water he drinks, or the rich food he eats.Now may his curses return and cling to him like clothing; may they be tied around him like a belt.”May those curses become the Lord’s punishment for my accusers who speak evil of me.But deal well with me, O Sovereign Lord, for the sake of your own reputation! Rescue me because you are so faithful and good.For I am poor and needy, and my heart is full of pain.I am fading like a shadow at dusk; I am brushed off like a locust.My knees are weak from fasting, and I am skin and bones.I am a joke to people everywhere; when they see me, they shake their heads in scorn.Help me, O Lord my God! Save me because of your unfailing love.Let them see that this is your doing, that you yourself have done it, Lord.Then let them curse me if they like, but you will bless me! When they attack me, they will be disgraced! But I, your servant, will go right on rejoicing!May my accusers be clothed with disgrace; may their humiliation cover them like a cloak.But I will give repeated thanks to the Lord, praising him to everyone.For he stands beside the needy, ready to save them from those who condemn them.The Lord said to my Lord,“ Sit in the place of honor at my right hand until I humble your enemies, making them a footstool under your feet.”

I will clothe his enemies with shame, but he will be a glorious king.”

That was the beginning of a long war between those who were loyal to Saul and those loyal to David. As time passed David became stronger and stronger, while Saul’s dynasty became weaker and weaker.

But his people hated him and sent a delegation after him to say,‘ We do not want him to be our king.’

You placed my foot on their necks. I have destroyed all who hated me.

Anyone who hates me also hates my Father.

You will capture all your enemies. Your strong right hand will seize all who hate you.You will throw them in a flaming furnace when you appear. The Lord will consume them in his anger; fire will devour them.

You have armed me with strength for the battle; you have subdued my enemies under my feet.You placed my foot on their necks. I have destroyed all who hated me.They looked for help, but no one came to their rescue. They even cried to the Lord, but he refused to answer.I ground them as fine as the dust of the earth; I trampled them in the gutter like dirt.“ You gave me victory over my accusers. You preserved me as the ruler over nations; people I don’t even know now serve me.

When King David was settled in his palace and the Lord had given him rest from all the surrounding enemies,

Why are the nations so angry? Why do they waste their time with futile plans?The kings of the earth prepare for battle; the rulers plot together against the Lord and against his anointed one.“ Let us break their chains,” they cry,“ and free ourselves from slavery to God.”But the one who rules in heaven laughs. The Lord scoffs at them.Then in anger he rebukes them, terrifying them with his fierce fury.For the Lord declares,“ I have placed my chosen king on the throne in Jerusalem, on my holy mountain.”
