Deliver me from my enemies, my God.

Second Book of the Psalms

 
1 
Deliver me from my enemies, my God.Set me on high from those who rise up against me. +
2 
Deliver me from the workers of iniquity.Save me from the bloodthirsty men. +
3 
For, behold, they lie in wait for my soul.The mighty gather themselves together against me,not for my disobedience, nor for my sin, The LORD.
4 
I have done no wrong, yet they are ready to attack me.Rise up, behold, and help me! +
5 
You, the LORD God of Armies, the God of Israel,rouse yourself to punish the nations.Show no mercy to the wicked traitors.Selah.
6 
They return at evening, howling like dogs,and prowl around the city. +
7 
Behold, they spew with their mouth.Swords are in their lips,"For", they say, "who hears us?" +
8 
But you, The LORD, laugh at them.You scoff at all the nations. +
9 
Oh, my Strength, I watch for you,for God is my high tower. +
10 
My God will go before me with his loving kindness.God will let me look at my enemies in triumph. +
11 
Don't kill them, or my people may forget.Scatter them by your power, and bring them down, Lord our shield. +
12 
For the sin of their mouth, and the words of their lips,let them be caught in their pride,for the curses and lies which they utter. +
13 
Consume them in wrath.Consume them, and they will be no more.Let them know that God rules in Jacob,to the ends of the earth.Selah. +
14 
At evening let them return.Let them howl like a dog, and go around the city. +
15 
They shall wander up and down for food,and wait all night if they aren't satisfied. +
16 
But I will sing of your strength.Yes, I will sing aloud of your loving kindness in the morning.For you have been my high tower,a refuge in the day of my distress. +
17 
To you, my strength, I will sing praises.For God is my high tower, the God of my mercy.
