59:1
Save me from my enemies, my God; protect me from those who attack me! |
|
59:2
Save me from those evil people; rescue me from those murderers! |
|
59:3
Look! They are waiting to kill me; cruel people are gathering against me. It
is not because of any sin or wrong I have done, |
|
59:4
nor because of any fault of mine, O LORD, that they hurry to their places. |
|
59:5
Rise, LORD God Almighty, and come to my aid; see for yourself, God of Israel!
Wake up and punish the heathen; show no mercy to evil traitors! |
|
59:6
They come back in the evening, snarling like dogs as they go about the city. |
|
59:7
Listen to their insults and threats. Their tongues are like swords in their
mouths, yet they think that no one hears them. |
|
59:8
But you laugh at them, LORD; you mock all the heathen. |
|
59:9
I have confidence in your strength; you are my refuge, O God. |
|
59:10
My God loves me and will come to me; he will let me see my enemies defeated. |
|
59:11
Do not kill them, O God, or my people may forget. Scatter them by your
strength and defeat them, O Lord, our protector. |
|
59:12
Sin is on their lips; all their words are sinful; may they be caught in their
pride! Because they curse and lie, |
|
59:13
destroy them in your anger; destroy them completely. Then everyone will know
that God rules in Israel, that his rule extends over all the earth. |
|
59:14
My enemies come back in the evening, snarling like dogs as they go about the
city, |
|
59:15
like dogs roaming about for food and growling if they do not find enough. |
|
59:16
But I will sing about your strength; every morning I will sing aloud of your
constant love. You have been a refuge for me, a shelter in my time of
trouble. |
|
59:17
I will praise you, my defender. My refuge is God, the God who loves me. |
