Psalms

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?
