To the chief MusicianH5329, A PsalmH4210 of DavidH1732. DeliverH2502 me, O LORDH3068, from the evilH7451 manH120: preserveH5341 me from the violentH2555 manH376; {violent…: Heb. man of violences}
Which imagineH2803 mischiefsH7451 in their heartH3820; continuallyH3117 are they gathered togetherH1481 for warH4421.
They have sharpenedH8150 their tonguesH3956 like a serpentH5175; adders'H5919 poisonH2534 is under their lipsH8193. SelahH5542.
KeepH8104 me, O LORDH3068, from the handsH3027 of the wickedH7563; preserveH5341 me from the violentH2555 manH376; who have purposedH2803 to overthrowH1760 my goingsH6471.
The proudH1343 have hidH2934 a snareH6341 for me, and cordsH2256; they have spreadH6566 a netH7568 by the waysideH3027+H4570; they have setH7896 ginsH4170 for me. SelahH5542.
I saidH559 unto the LORDH3068, Thou art my GodH410: hearH238 the voiceH6963 of my supplicationsH8469, O LORDH3068.
O GODH3069 the LordH136, the strengthH5797 of my salvationH3444, thou hast coveredH5526 my headH7218 in the dayH3117 of battleH5402.
GrantH5414 not, O LORDH3068, the desiresH3970 of the wickedH7563: furtherH6329 not his wicked deviceH2162; lest they exaltH7311 themselves. SelahH5542. {lest…: or, let them not be exalted}
As for the headH7218 of those that compass me aboutH4524, let the mischiefH5999 of their own lipsH8193 coverH3680 them.
Let burning coalsH1513 fallH4131+H4131 upon them: let them be castH5307 into the fireH784; into deep pitsH4113, that they rise not up againH6965.
Let not an evil speakerH376+H3956 be establishedH3559 in the earthH776: evilH7451 shall huntH6679 the violentH2555 manH376 to overthrowH4073 him. {an…: Heb. a man of tongue: or an evil speaker, a wicked man of violence be established in the earth: let him be hunted to his overthrow}
I knowH3045 that the LORDH3068 will maintainH6213 the causeH1779 of the afflictedH6041, and the rightH4941 of the poorH34.
Surely the righteousH6662 shall give thanksH3034 unto thy nameH8034: the uprightH3477 shall dwellH3427 in thy presenceH6440.

The wickedH7563, through the prideH1363 of his countenanceH639, will not seekH1875 after God: GodH430 is not in all his thoughtsH4209. {God is…: or, all his thoughts are, There is no God}
His waysH1870 are alwaysH6256 grievousH2342; thy judgmentsH4941 are far aboveH4791 out of his sight: as for all his enemiesH6887, he puffethH6315 at them.

His mouthH6310 is fullH4390 of cursingH423 and deceitH4820 and fraudH8496: under his tongueH3956 is mischiefH5999 and vanityH205. {deceit: Heb. deceits} {vanity: or, iniquity}
He sittethH3427 in the lurking placesH3993 of the villagesH2691: in the secret placesH4565 doth he murderH2026 the innocentH5355: his eyesH5869 are privily setH6845 against the poorH2489. {are…: Heb. hide themselves}
He lieth in waitH693 secretlyH4565 as a lionH738 in his denH5520: he lieth in waitH693 to catchH2414 the poorH6041: he doth catchH2414 the poorH6041, when he drawethH4900 him into his netH7568. {secretly: Heb. in the secret places}
He crouchethH1794, and humblethH7817 himself, that the poorH2426+H2489+H2489 may fallH5307 by his strong onesH6099. {He…: Heb. He breaketh himself} {by…: or, into his strong parts}

AriseH6965, O LORDH3068; O GodH410, lift upH5375 thine handH3027: forgetH7911 not the humbleH6035+H6041. {humble: or, afflicted}
KeepH8104 me as the appleH380 of the eyeH1323+H5869, hideH5641 me under the shadowH6738 of thy wingsH3671,
FromH6440 the wickedH7563 thatH2098 oppressH7703 me, from my deadlyH5315 enemiesH341, who compass me aboutH5362. {oppress: Heb. waste} {my…: Heb. my enemies against the soul}
They are inclosedH5462 in their own fatH2459: with their mouthH6310 they speakH1696 proudlyH1348.
They have now compassedH5437 us in our stepsH838: they have setH7896 their eyesH5869 bowing downH5186 to the earthH776;
LikeH1825 as a lionH738 that is greedyH3700 of his preyH2963, and as it were a young lionH3715 lurkingH3427 in secret placesH4565. {Like…: Heb. The likeness of him (that is, of every one of them) is as a lion that desireth to ravin} {lurking: Heb. sitting}
AriseH6965, O LORDH3068, disappointH6923 himH6440, cast him downH3766: deliverH6403 my soulH5315 from the wickedH7563, which is thy swordH2719: {disappoint…: Heb. prevent his face} {which is: or, by}

They have preparedH3559 a netH7568 for my stepsH6471; my soulH5315 is bowed downH3721: they have diggedH3738 a pitH7882 beforeH6440 me, into the midstH8432 whereof they are fallenH5307 themselves. SelahH5542.
The proudH2086 have forgedH2950 a lieH8267 against me: but I will keepH5341 thy preceptsH6490 with my whole heartH3820.
Have mercyH2603 upon us, O LORDH3068, have mercyH2603 upon us: for we are exceedinglyH7227 filledH7646 with contemptH937.
Our soulH5315 is exceedinglyH7227 filledH7646 with the scorningH3933 of those that are at easeH7600, and with the contemptH937 of the proudH3238+H1343+H1349.
KeepH8104 me from the snaresH3027+H6341 which they have laidH3369 for me, and the ginsH4170 of the workersH6466 of iniquityH205.
Let the wickedH7563 fallH5307 into their own netsH4364, whilst that I withalH3162 escapeH5674. {escape: Heb. pass over}
When my spiritH7307 was overwhelmedH5848 within me, then thou knewestH3045 my pathH5410. In the wayH734 whereinH2098 I walkedH1980 have they privily laidH2934 a snareH6341 for me.

AndG1161 as heG846 saidG3004 these thingsG5023 untoG4314 themG846, the scribesG1122 andG2532 the PhariseesG5330 beganG756 to urgeG1758 him vehementlyG1171, andG2532 to provokeG653 himG846 to speakG653 ofG4012 many thingsG4119:
Laying wait forG1748 himG846, andG2532 seekingG2212 to catchG2340 somethingG5100 out ofG1537 hisG846 mouthG4750, thatG2443 they might accuseG2723 himG846.
AndG2532 they watchedG3906 him, and sent forthG649 spiesG1455, which should feignG5271+G1511 themselvesG1438 just menG1342, thatG2443 they might take holdG1949 of hisG846 wordsG3056, that soG1519 they might deliverG3860 himG846 unto the powerG746 andG2532 authorityG1849 of the governorG2232.
