Psalms 59:1-7

112Deliver me from mine enemies, O my God: defend me from them that rise up against me.3

2Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from bloody men.

3For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul: the mighty are gathered against me; not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O Yhwh.

4They run and prepare themselves without my fault: awake to help me, and behold.4

5Thou therefore, O Yhwh God of Armies, the God of Israel, awake to visit all the heathen: be not merciful to any wicked transgressors. Selah.

6They return at evening: they make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.

7Behold, they belch out with their mouth: swords are in their lips: for who, say they, doth hear?
