The Assured Judgment of the Wicked

To the Chief Musician. Set to “Do Not Destroy.” A Michtam of David when Saul sent men, and they watched the house in order to kill him.

1 Deliver me from my enemies, O my God;
1Defend me from those who rise up against me. 
2 Deliver me from the workers of iniquity,
And save me from bloodthirsty men.
3 For look, they lie in wait for my life;
aThe mighty gather against me,
Not for my transgression nor for my sin, O Lord. 
4 They run and prepare themselves through no fault of mine.
aAwake to help me, and behold! 
5 You therefore, O Lord God of hosts, the God of Israel,
Awake to punish all the1 nations;
Do not be merciful to any wicked transgressors. Selah 
6 aAt evening they return,
They growl like a dog,
And go all around the city. 
7 Indeed, they belch with their mouth;
aSwords are in their lips;
For they say, b“Who hears?”
