Chapter 59
-
Deliver me from my enemies, O my God; Defend me from those who rise up against me.
-
Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, And save me from bloodthirsty men.
-
For look, they lie in wait for my life; The mighty gather against me, Not for my transgression nor for my sin, O Lord.
-
They run and prepare themselves through no fault of mine. Awake to help me, and behold!
-
You therefore, O Lord God of hosts, the God of Israel, Awake to punish all the nations; Do not be merciful to any wicked transgressors. Selah
-
At evening they return, They growl like a dog, And go all around the city.
-
Indeed, they belch with their mouth; Swords are in their lips; For they say, "Who hears?"
-
But You, O Lord, shall laugh at them; You shall have all the nations in derision.
-
I will wait for You, O You his Strength; For God is my defense.
-
My God of mercy shall come to meet me; God shall let me see my desire on my enemies.
-
Do not slay them, lest my people forget; Scatter them by Your power, And bring them down, O Lord our shield.
-
For the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips, Let them even be taken in their pride, And for the cursing and lying which they speak.
-
Consume them in wrath, consume them, That they may not be; And let them know that God rules in Jacob To the ends of the earth. Selah
-
And at evening they return, They growl like a dog, And go all around the city.
-
They wander up and down for food, And howl if they are not satisfied.
-
But I will sing of Your power; Yes, I will sing aloud of Your mercy in the morning; For You have been my defense And refuge in the day of my trouble.
-
To You, O my Strength, I will sing praises; For God is my defense, My God of mercy.
