|
Give ear to my prayer, O God; and hide not thyself from my supplication. |
2
|
Attend unto me, and hear me: I mourn in my complaint, and make a noise; |
3
|
Because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked: for they cast iniquity upon me, and in wrath they hate me. |
4
|
My heart is sore pained within me: and the terrors of death are fallen upon me. |
5
|
Fearfulness and trembling are come upon me, and horror hath overwhelmed me. |
6
|
And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! [for then] would I fly away, and be at rest. |
7
|
Lo, [then] would I wander far off, [and] remain in the wilderness. Selah. |
8
|
I would hasten my escape from the windy storm [and] tempest. |
9
|
Destroy, O Lord, [and] divide their tongues: for I have seen violence and strife in the city. |
10
|
Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof: mischief also and sorrow [are] in the midst of it. |
11
|
Wickedness [is] in the midst thereof: deceit and guile depart not from her streets. |
12
|
For [it was] not an enemy [that] reproached me; then I could have borne [it:] neither [was it] he that hated me [that] did magnify [himself] against me; then I would have hid myself from him: |
13
|
But [it was] thou, a man mine equal, my guide, and mine acquaintance. |
14
|
We took sweet counsel together, [and] walked unto the house of God in company. |
15
|
Let death seize upon them, [and] let them go down quick into hell: for wickedness is in their dwellings, [and] among them. |
16
|
As for me, I will call upon God; and the LORD shall save me. |
17
|
Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice. |
18
|
He hath delivered my soul in peace from the battle [that was] against me: for there were many with me. |
19
|
God shall hear, and afflict them, even he that abideth of old. Selah. Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not God. |
20
|
He hath put forth his hands against such as be at peace with him: he hath broken his covenant. |
21
|
[The words] of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war [was] in his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet [were] they drawn swords. |
22
|
Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved. |
23
|
But thou, O God, shalt bring them down into the pit of destruction: bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days; but I will trust in thee. |
