1 Deliver|strong="H2502" me, O \+w LORD|strong="H3068"\+w*, from the evil|strong="H7451" man|strong="H0120": preserve|strong="H5341" me from the violent|strong="H2555" man|strong="H0376";
2 Which imagine|strong="H2803" mischiefs|strong="H7451" in their heart|strong="H3820"; continually|strong="H3117" are they gathered together|strong="H1481" for war|strong="H4421".
3 They have sharpened|strong="H8150" their tongues|strong="H3956" like a serpent|strong="H5175"; adders’|strong="H5919" poison|strong="H2534" is under their lips|strong="H8193". Selah|strong="H5542".
4 Keep|strong="H8104" me, O \+w LORD|strong="H3068"\+w*, from the hands|strong="H3027" of the wicked|strong="H7563"; preserve|strong="H5341" me from the violent|strong="H2555" man|strong="H0376"; who have purposed|strong="H2803" to overthrow|strong="H1760" my goings|strong="H6471".
5 The proud|strong="H1343" have hid|strong="H2934" a snare|strong="H6341" for me, and cords|strong="H2256"; they have spread|strong="H6566" a net|strong="H7568" by the wayside|strong="H3027"; they have set|strong="H7896" gins|strong="H4170" for me. Selah|strong="H5542".
6 I said|strong="H0559" unto the \+w LORD|strong="H3068"\+w*, Thou art my God|strong="H0410": hear|strong="H0238" the voice|strong="H6963" of my supplications|strong="H8469", O \+w LORD|strong="H3068"\+w*.
7 O \+w GOD|strong="H3069"\+w* the Lord|strong="H0136", the strength|strong="H5797" of my salvation|strong="H3444", thou hast covered|strong="H5526" my head|strong="H7218" in the day|strong="H3117" of battle|strong="H5402".
8 Grant|strong="H5414" not, O \+w LORD|strong="H3068"\+w*, the desires|strong="H3970" of the wicked|strong="H7563": further|strong="H6329" not his wicked device|strong="H2162"; lest they exalt|strong="H7311" themselves. Selah|strong="H5542".
9 As for the head|strong="H7218" of those that compass me about|strong="H4524", let the mischief|strong="H5999" of their own lips|strong="H8193" cover|strong="H3680" them.
10 Let burning coals|strong="H1513" fall|strong="H4131" upon them: let them be cast|strong="H5307" into the fire|strong="H0784"; into deep pits|strong="H4113", that they rise not up again|strong="H6965".
11 Let not an evil speaker|strong="H0376" be established|strong="H3559" in the earth|strong="H0776": evil|strong="H7451" shall hunt|strong="H6679" the violent|strong="H2555" man|strong="H0376" to overthrow|strong="H4073" him.
12 I know|strong="H3045" that the \+w LORD|strong="H3068"\+w* will maintain|strong="H6213" the cause|strong="H1779" of the afflicted|strong="H6041", and the right|strong="H4941" of the poor|strong="H0034".
13 Surely the righteous|strong="H6662" shall give thanks|strong="H3034" unto thy name|strong="H8034": the upright|strong="H3477" shall dwell|strong="H3427" in thy presence|strong="H6440".
