\d For the chief musician. A psalm of David.
|

\p

|
\q
|
|
\v 1 Yahweh, rescue me from the wicked;
|
|
\q preserve me from violent men.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 2 They plan evil in their hearts;
|
|
\q they stir up conflict every day.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 3 Their tongues wound like serpents;
|
|
\q vipers' poison is on their lips.
|

\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 4 Keep me from the hands of the wicked, Yahweh;
|
|
\q preserve me from violent men
|
|
\q who plan to knock me over.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 5 The proud have set a trap for me;
|
|
\q they have spread a net;
|
|
\q they have set a snare for me.
|
|
\qs Selah\qs*
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 6 I said to Yahweh, "You are my God;
|
|
\q listen to my cries for mercy."
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 7 Yahweh, my Lord, you are strong to save;
|
|
\q you shield my head in the day of battle.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 8 Yahweh, do not grant the desires of the wicked;
|
|
\q do not let their plots succeed.
|
|
\qs Selah\qs*
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 9 Those who surround me raise their heads;
|
|
\q let the mischief of their own lips overwhelm them.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 10 Let burning coals fall on them;
|
|
\q throw them into the fire,
|
|
\q into bottomless pits, never more to rise.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 11 May anyone who says evil things about others not be made secure on the earth;
|
|
\q may evil hunt down the violent man to overthrow him.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 12 I know that Yahweh will maintain the cause of the afflicted,
|
|
\q and that he will exercise justice for the needy.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 13 Surely the righteous people will give thanks to your name;
|
|
\q the upright people will live in your presence.
