Psalms 59 (kjv)

59

To the chief MusicianH5329, AltaschithH516, MichtamH4387 of DavidH1732; when SaulH7586 sentH7971, and they watchedH8104 the houseH1004 to kill himH4191. DeliverH5337 me from mine enemiesH341, O my GodH430: defendH7682 me from them that rise upH6965 against me.2DeliverH5337 me from the workersH6466 of iniquityH205, and saveH3467 me from bloodyH1818 menH582.3For, lo, they lie in waitH693 for my soulH5315: the mightyH5794 are gatheredH1481 against me; not for my transgressionH6588, nor for my sinH2403, O LORDH3068.4They runH7323 and prepareH3559 themselves without my faultH5771: awakeH5782 to helpH7125 me, and beholdH7200.5Thou therefore, O LORDH3068 GodH430 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, awakeH6974 to visitH6485 all the heathenH1471: be not mercifulH2603 to any wickedH205 transgressorsH898. SelahH5542.

6They returnH7725 at eveningH6153: they make a noiseH1993 like a dogH3611, and go round aboutH5437 the cityH5892.7Behold, they belch outH5042 with their mouthH6310: swordsH2719 are in their lipsH8193: for who, say they, doth hearH8085?

8But thou, O LORDH3068, shalt laughH7832 at them; thou shalt have all the heathenH1471 in derisionH3932.9Because of his strengthH5797 will I waitH8104 upon thee: for GodH430 is my defenceH4869.10The GodH430 of my mercyH2617 shall preventH6923 me: GodH430 shall let me seeH7200 my desire upon mine enemiesH8324.

11SlayH2026 them not, lest my peopleH5971 forgetH7911: scatterH5128 them by thy powerH2428; and bring them downH3381, O LordH136 our shieldH4043.12For the sinH2403 of their mouthH6310 and the wordsH1697 of their lipsH8193 let them even be takenH3920 in their prideH1347: and for cursingH423 and lyingH3585 which they speakH5608.13ConsumeH3615 them in wrathH2534, consumeH3615 them, that they may not be: and let them knowH3045 that GodH430 rulethH4910 in JacobH3290 unto the endsH657 of the earthH776. SelahH5542.14And at eveningH6153 let them returnH7725; and let them make a noiseH1993 like a dogH3611, and go round aboutH5437 the cityH5892.15Let them wander up and downH5128 H5128 for meatH398, and grudgeH3885 if they be not satisfiedH7646.

16But I will singH7891 of thy powerH5797; yea, I will sing aloudH7442 of thy mercyH2617 in the morningH1242: for thou hast been my defenceH4869 and refugeH4498 in the dayH3117 of my troubleH6862.17Unto thee, O my strengthH5797, will I singH2167: for GodH430 is my defenceH4869, and the GodH430 of my mercyH2617.
