Psalms:59

* To the Chief Musician . Do not destroy . A secret treasure of David , when Saul sent , and they watched the house to kill him . Deliver me from my enemies , O my God ; defend me from those who rise up against me . * Deliver me from the workers of evil and save me from bloody men . * For , lo , they lie in wait for my soul ; the mighty are gathered against me ; not [for ] my transgression , nor [for ] my sin , O LORD . * Without [my ] fault they run and prepare themselves ; awaken to help me , and look [on me ]. * And You , O LORD God of hosts , the God of Israel , awake to visit all the nations ; do not be merciful to any plotting evil . Selah . * They return at evening ; they make a noise like a dog , and go around the city . * Behold , they bellow out with their mouth ; swords [are ] in their lips ; for [they say ], Who hears ? * But You , O Jehovah , shall laugh at them ; You will mock at all the nations . * O my Strength , let me look to You , for God [is ] my strong tower . * The God of my mercy shall go before me ; God shall let me see [my desire ] on my enemies . * Do not kill them , lest my people forget ; scatter them by Your power and bring them down , O LORD our shield . * [For ] the sin of their mouth [is ] the word of their lips , even let them be taken in their pride ; and for cursing and the lying [which ] they speak . * Consume [them ] in wrath ; consume , so 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 shall return ; let them howl like a dog , and go around the city . * Let them wander up and down for food , and growl 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 strong tower and hiding-place in the day of my trouble . * To You , O my strength , I will sing ; for God [is ] my strong tower [and ] the God of my mercy .
