Psalms 59
King James Version

1 Deliver me from mine enemies, O my God:
defend me from them that rise up against me.​
2 Deliver me from the workers of iniquity,
and save me from bloody men.​

3 For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul:
the mighty are gathered against me;
not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O Lord.​
4 They run and prepare themselves without my fault:

awake to help me, and behold.​
5 Thou therefore, O Lord God of hosts, the God of Israel,
awake to visit all the heathen:
be not merciful to any wicked transgressors. Selah.​

6 They return at evening:
they make a noise like a dog,
and go round about the city.​
7 Behold, they belch out with their mouth:
swords are in their lips:
for who, say they, doth hear?​

8 But thou, O Lord, shalt laugh at them;
thou shalt have all the heathen in derision.​
9 Because of his strength will I wait upon thee:
for God is my defence.​
10 The God of my mercy shall prevent me:
God shall let me see my desire upon mine enemies.​

11 Slay them not, lest my people forget:
scatter them by thy power;
and bring them down,
O Lord our shield.​
12 For the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips
let them even be taken in their pride:
and for cursing and lying which they speak.​
13 Consume them in wrath, consume them,
that they may not be:
and let them know that God ruleth in Jacob
unto the ends of the earth. Selah.​

14 And at evening let them return;
and let them make a noise like a dog,
and go round about the city.​
15 Let them wander up and down for meat,
and grudge if they be not satisfied.​

16 But I will sing of thy power;
yea, I will sing aloud of thy mercy in the morning:
for thou hast been my defence
and refuge in the day of my trouble.​
17 Unto thee, O my strength, will I sing:
for God is my defence,
and the God of my mercy.​
