1. O my God, take me away from those who hate me. Put me up high above those who rise up against me.
|
1. To the chief Musician H5329 , Al H516 -taschith, Michtam H4387 of David H1732 ; when Saul H7586 sent H7971 , and they watched H8104 H853 the house H1004 to kill H4191 him. Deliver H5337 me from mine enemies H4480 H341 , O my God H430 : defend H7682 me from them that rise up against H4480 H6965 me.
|
|
2. Take me away from those who do wrong. And save me from those who kill.
|
2. Deliver H5337 me from the workers H4480 H6466 of iniquity H205 , and save H3467 me from bloody H1818 men H4480 H376 .
|
|
3. For, look, they lie in wait for my life. Strong men are gathering together to fight me, but not because of my wrong-doing or my sin, O Lord.
|
3. For H3588 , lo H2009 , they lie in wait H693 for my soul H5315 : the mighty H5794 are gathered H1481 against H5921 me; not H3808 for my transgression H6588 , nor H3808 for my sin H2403 , O LORD H3068 .
|
|
4. I have done no wrong, but they get ready to fight against me. Rise up to help me.
|
4. They run H7323 and prepare themselves H3559 without H1097 my fault H5771 : awake H5782 to help H7125 me , and behold H7200 .
|
|
5. You, O Lord God of All, God of Israel, rise up to punish all the nations. Show no loving-kindness to those people who cannot be trusted and plan sins.
|
5. Thou H859 therefore , O LORD H3068 God H430 of hosts H6635 , the God H430 of Israel H3478 , awake H6974 to visit H6485 all H3605 the heathen H1471 : be not H408 merciful H2603 to any H3605 wicked H205 transgressors H898 . Selah H5542 .
|
|
6. They return at evening. They sound like dogs and go around the city.
|
6. They return H7725 at evening H6153 : they make a noise H1993 like a dog H3611 , and go round about H5437 the city H5892 .
|
|
7. See, they spit with their mouth. Swords are in their lips. And they say, "Who can hear us?"
|
7. Behold H2009 , they belch out H5042 with their mouth H6310 : swords H2719 are in their lips H8193 : for H3588 who H4310 , say they , doth hear H8085 ?
|
|
8. But You laugh at them, O Lord. You laugh at all the nations.
|
8. But thou H859 , O LORD H3068 , shalt laugh H7832 at them ; thou shalt have all H3605 the heathen H1471 in derision H3932 .
|
|
9. O my Strength, I will watch for You. For God is my strong place.
|
9. Because of his strength H5797 will I wait H8104 upon H413 thee: for H3588 God H430 is my defense H4869 .
|
|
10. My God in His loving-kindness will meet me. God will let me look at those who come against me and know that I will win the fight.
|
10. The God H430 of my mercy H2617 shall prevent H6923 me: God H430 shall let me see H7200 my desire upon mine enemies H8324 .
|
|
11. Do not kill them, or my people may forget. Divide them by Your power and bring them down, O Lord, our safe-covering.
|
11. Slay H2026 them not H408 , lest H6435 my people H5971 forget H7911 : scatter H5128 them by thy power H2428 ; and bring them down H3381 , O Lord H136 our shield H4043 .
|
|
12. Let them be caught in their pride for the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips. For the lies and bad things they say,
|
12. For the sin H2403 of their mouth H6310 and the words H1697 of their lips H8193 let them even be taken H3920 in their pride H1347 : and for cursing H4480 H423 and lying H4480 H3585 which they speak H5608 .
|
|
13. destroy them in anger. Destroy them so that they will be no more. Let it be known that God rules in Jacob and to the ends of the earth.
|
13. Consume H3615 them in wrath H2534 , consume H3615 them , that they may not H369 be : and let them know H3045 that H3588 God H430 ruleth H4910 in Jacob H3290 unto the ends H657 of the earth H776 . Selah H5542 .
|
|
14. They return at evening. They make sounds like dogs and go around the city.
|
14. And at evening H6153 let them return H7725 ; and let them make a noise H1993 like a dog H3611 , and go round about H5437 the city H5892 .
|
|
15. They go around looking for food and they show their teeth if they are not filled.
|
15. Let them H1992 wander up and down H5128 for meat H398 , and grudge H3885 if H518 they be not H3808 satisfied H7646 .
|
|
16. But as for me, I will sing of Your strength. Yes, I will sing with joy of Your loving-kindness in the morning. For You have been a strong and safe place for me in times of trouble.
|
16. But I H589 will sing H7891 of thy power H5797 ; yea , I will sing aloud H7442 of thy mercy H2617 in the morning H1242 : for H3588 thou hast been H1961 my defense H4869 and refuge H4498 in the day H3117 of my trouble H6862 .
|
|
17. O my Strength, I will sing praises to You. For God is my strong place and the God Who shows me loving-kindness.
|
17. Unto H413 thee , O my strength H5797 , will I sing H2167 : for H3588 God H430 is my defense H4869 , and the God H430 of my mercy H2617 .
