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.

Were it notH3884 that I fearedH1481 the wrathH3708 of the enemyH341, lest their adversariesH6862 should behave themselves strangelyH5234, and lest they should sayH559, Our handH3027 is highH7311, and the LORDH3068 hath not doneH6466 all this. {Our…: or, Our high hand, and not the LORD hath done}
