To the chief MusicianH5329 on NeginothH5058, MaschilH4905, A Psalm of DavidH1732. Give earH238 to my prayerH8605, O GodH430; and hideH5956 not thyself from my supplicationH8467.
AttendH7181 unto me, and hearH6030 me: I mournH7300 in my complaintH7879, and make a noiseH1949;
Because of the voiceH6963 of the enemyH341, becauseH6440 of the oppressionH6125 of the wickedH7563: for they castH4131 iniquityH205 upon me, and in wrathH639 they hateH7852 me.
My heartH3820 is sore painedH2342 withinH7130 me: and the terrorsH367 of deathH4194 are fallenH5307 upon me.
FearfulnessH3374 and tremblingH7461 are comeH935 upon me, and horrorH6427 hath overwhelmedH3680 me. {overwhelmed: Heb. covered}
And I saidH559, Oh thatH5414 I had wingsH83 like a doveH3123! for then would I fly awayH5774, and be at restH7931.
Lo, then would I wanderH5074 far offH7368, and remainH3885 in the wildernessH4057. SelahH5542.
I would hastenH2363 my escapeH4655 from the windyH7307 stormH5584 and tempestH5591.
DestroyH1104, O LordH136, and divideH6385 their tonguesH3956: for I have seenH7200 violenceH2555 and strifeH7379 in the cityH5892.
DayH3119 and nightH3915 they go aboutH5437 it upon the wallsH2346 thereof: mischiefH205 also and sorrowH5999 are in the midstH7130 of it.
WickednessH1942 is in the midstH7130 thereof: deceitH8496 and guileH4820 departH4185 not from her streetsH7339.
For it was not an enemyH341 that reproachedH2778 me; then I could have borneH5375 it: neither was it he that hatedH8130 me that did magnifyH1431 himself against me; then I would have hidH5641 myself from him:
But it was thou, a manH582 mine equalH6187, my guideH441, and mine acquaintanceH3045. {mine equal: Heb. according to my rank}
We took sweetH4985 counselH5475 togetherH3162, and walkedH1980 unto the houseH1004 of GodH430 in companyH7285. {We…: Heb. Who sweetened counsel}
Let deathH4194 seizeH5377+H3451 upon them, and let them go downH3381 quickH2416 into hellH7585: for wickednessH7451 is in their dwellingsH4033, and amongH7130 them. {hell: or, the grave}
As for me, I will callH7121 upon GodH430; and the LORDH3068 shall saveH3467 me.
EveningH6153, and morningH1242, and at noonH6672, will I prayH7878, and cry aloudH1993: and he shall hearH8085 my voiceH6963.
He hath deliveredH6299 my soulH5315 in peaceH7965 from the battleH7128 that was against me: for there were manyH7227 with me.
GodH410 shall hearH8085, and afflictH6030 them, even he that abidethH3427 of oldH6924. SelahH5542. Because they have no changesH2487, therefore they fearH3372 not GodH430. {Because…: or, With whom also there be no changes, yet they}
He hath put forthH7971 his handsH3027 against such as be at peaceH7965 with him: he hath brokenH2490 his covenantH1285. {broken: Heb. profaned}
The words of his mouthH6310 were smootherH2505 than butterH4260, but warH7128 was in his heartH3820: his wordsH1697 were softerH7401 than oilH8081, yet were they drawn swordsH6609.
CastH7993 thy burdenH3053 upon the LORDH3068, and he shall sustainH3557 thee: he shall neverH5769 sufferH5414 the righteousH6662 to be movedH4131. {burden: or, gift}
But thou, O GodH430, shalt bring them downH3381 into the pitH875 of destructionH7845: bloodyH1818 and deceitfulH4820 menH582 shall not live out halfH2673 their daysH3117; but I will trustH982 in thee. {bloody…: Heb. men of bloods and deceit} {shall…: Heb. shall not half their days}

For the oppressionH7701 of the poorH6041, for the sighingH603 of the needyH34, now will I ariseH6965, saithH559 the LORDH3068; I will setH7896 him in safetyH3468 from him that puffethH6315 at him. {puffeth…: or, would ensnare him}
DeliverH5414 me not over unto the willH5315 of mine enemiesH6862: for falseH8267 witnessesH5707 are risen upH6965 against me, and such as breathe outH3307 crueltyH2555.
For strangersH2114 are risen upH6965 against me, and oppressorsH6184 seekH1245 after my soulH5315: they have not setH7760 GodH430 before them. SelahH5542.
