To the chiefH5329 Musician,H5329 Altaschith,H516 MichtamH4387 of David;H1732 when SaulH7586 sent,H7971 and they watchedH8104 the houseH1004 to killH4191 him. DeliverH5337 me from my enemies,H341 O my God:H430 defendH7682 me from them that riseH6965 up against me.
2
DeliverH5337 me from the workersH6466 of iniquity,H205 and saveH3467 me from bloodyH1818 men.H582
3
For, see,H2009 they lie in waitH693 for my soul:H5315 the mightyH5794 are gatheredH1481 againstH5921 me; not for my transgression,H6588 norH3808 for my sin,H2403 O LORD.H3068
4
They runH7323 and prepareH3559 themselves withoutH1097 my fault:H5771 awakeH5782 to helpH7125 me, and behold.H7200
5
You therefore, O LORDH3068 GodH430 of hosts,H6635 the GodH430 of Israel,H3478 awakeH6974 to visitH6485 allH3605 the heathen:H1471 be not mercifulH2603 to anyH3605 wickedH205 transgressors.H898 Selah.H5542
6
They returnH7725 at evening:H6153 they make a noiseH1993 like a dog,H3611 and goH5437 roundH5437 about the city.H5892
7
Behold,H2009 they belchH5042 out with their mouth:H6310 swordsH2719 are in their lips:H8193 for who,H4310 say they, does hear?H8085
8
But you, O LORD,H3068 shall laughH7832 at them; you shall have allH3605 the heathenH1471 in derision.H3932
9
Because of his strengthH5797 will I waitH8104 on you: for GodH430 is my defense.H4869
10
The GodH430 of my mercyH2617 shall preventH6923 me: GodH430 shall let me seeH7200 my desire on my enemies.H8324
11
SlayH2026 them not, lestH6435 my peopleH5971 forget:H7911 scatterH5128 them by your power;H2428 and bringH3381 them down,H3381 O LordH136 our shield.H4043
12
For the sinH2403 of their mouthH6310 and the wordsH1697 of their lipsH8193 let them even be takenH3920 in their pride:H1347 and for cursingH423 and lyingH3585 which they speak.H5608
13
ConsumeH3615 them in wrath,H2534 consumeH3615 them, that they may not be: and let them knowH3045 that GodH430 rulesH4910 in JacobH3290 to the endsH657 of the earth.H776 Selah.H5542
14
And at eveningH6153 let them return;H7725 and let them make a noiseH1993 like a dog,H3611 and goH5437 roundH5437 about the city.H5892
15
Let them wanderH5128 up and down for meat,H398 and grudgeH3885 ifH518 they be not satisfied.H7646
16
But I will singH7891 of your power;H5797 yes, I will singH7442 aloudH7442 of your mercyH2617 in the morning:H1242 for you have beenH1961 my defenseH4869 and refugeH4498 in the dayH3117 of my trouble.H6862
17
To you, O my strength,H5797 will I sing:H2167 for GodH430 is my defense,H4869 and the GodH430 of my mercy.H2617
