Psalms 59NO HIGHLIGHTSHIGHLIGHTS 59:1 <> Deliver me from my enemies, O my God; Defend me from those who rise up against me. 59:2 Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, And save me from bloodthirsty men. 59:3 For look, they lie in wait for my life; The mighty gather against me, Not for my transgression nor for my sin, O LORD. 59:4 They run and prepare themselves through no fault of mine. Awake to help me, and behold! 59:5 You therefore, O LORD God of hosts, the God of Israel, Awake to punish all the nations; Do not be merciful to any wicked transgressors. Selah 59:6 At evening they return, They growl like a dog, And go all around the city. 59:7 Indeed, they belch with their mouth; Swords are in their lips; For they say, ''Who hears?'' 59:8 But You, O LORD, shall laugh at them; You shall have all the nations in derision. 59:9 I will wait for You, O You his Strength; For God is my defense; 59:10 My God of mercy shall come to meet me; God shall let me see my desire on my enemies. 59:11 Do not slay them, lest my people forget; Scatter them by Your power, And bring them down, O Lord our shield. 59:12 For the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips, Let them even be taken in their pride, And for the cursing and lying which they speak. 59:13 Consume them in wrath, consume them, That they may not be; And let them know that God rules in Jacob To the ends of the earth. Selah 59:14 And at evening they return, They growl like a dog, And go all around the city. 59:15 They wander up and down for food, And howl if they are not satisfied. 59:16 But I will sing of Your power; Yes, I will sing aloud of Your mercy in the morning; For You have been my defense And refuge in the day of my trouble. 59:17 To You, O my Strength, I will sing praises; For God is my defense, My God of mercy.
