Psalms 59:1-9

1DeliverH7971 meH7971 from mine enemies, O my GodH7971: setH7971 meH7971 on high from them that rise upH853 againstH8104 meH7971.

2DeliverH5337 meH7682 from the workers of iniquity, and saveH5337 meH7682 from the bloodthirsty men.

3For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul; the mighty gather themselvesH205 together againstH376 meH3467: notH3467 for my transgression, nor for my sinH205, O LORD.

4They run and prepare themselvesH5315 withoutH3808 my fault: awake thou to help meH5315, and beholdH2009.

5Even thou, O LORD God of hosts, the God of Israel, ariseH5782 to visitH7200 all the heathen: be notH3559 merciful to any wicked transgressors. Selah

6They return at evening, they make a noise like a dog, and go round aboutH3605 the city.

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

8But thou, O LORD, shalt laugh at them; thou shalt have allH2009 the heathen in derision.

9O my strength, I will wait upon thee: for GodH3068 is my highH1471 tower.
