Psalms, psalm 59
Compare with Revised Standard Version: Psal.059
1: Deliver me from mine enemies, O JAH: 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 JAH.
4: They run and prepare themselves without my fault: awake to help
me, and behold.
5: Thou therefore, O JAH 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 JAH, shalt laugh at them; thou shalt have all the heathen
in derision.
9: Because of his strength will I wait upon thee: for JAH is my defence.
10: The God of my mercy shall prevent me: JAH 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 JAH 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 JAH 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 JAH is my defence, and
the God of my mercy.
