\d A psalm written by David for the choir director, when Saul, wanting to kill David, sent men to watch David's house.

\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 1 God, save me from my enemies!
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 Protect me from those who want to attack me!
|
|
|
|
|
\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 2 Keep me safe from men who want to do what is wicked,
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 from men who are murderers!
|
|
|
|
|
\b

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 3 Look! They are waiting to kill me!
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 Fierce men have gathered to assault me.
|
|
|
|
|
\q1 Yahweh, they are doing that even though I have not done what is wrong!
|
|
|
|
|
\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 4 It is not because I have committed any sin against them
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 that they run and get ready to attack me. Please look at my situation and help me.

\v 5 Yahweh my God, commander of the angel armies, the one we Israelites worship,
|
2016-04-01 21:07:40 +00:00
|
|
|
\q2 arise and punish the people of all the nations who do not honor you;
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 do not act mercifully toward those wicked people who have acted treacherously toward us.
|
|
|
|
|
|

\b

\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 6 They return each evening,
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 snarling like vicious dogs as they prowl around this city.
|
|
|
|
|
\q
|
|
|
|
|
\v 7 They loudly say terrible things;
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 they say things that destroy as much as swords do,
|
|
|
|
|
\q1 because they are saying, "No one will hear us!"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
|
|
|
\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 8 But Yahweh, you laugh at them.
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 You scoff at the people of the pagan nations.
|
|
|
|
|
\b
|
|
|
|
|
\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 9 God, I have confidence in you because you are very strong;
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 you are my refuge.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
|
|
|
\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 10 Because you love me, you will come to save me as you have promised;
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 you will allow me to watch while you defeat my enemies.
|
|
|
|
|
\b
|
|
|
|
|
\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 11 But do not kill them immediately;
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 it is good that my people should not forget how you punished them!
|
|
|
|
|
\q1 Instead, Lord, you who are like a shield that protects us,
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 scatter them by your power, and then defeat them.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
|
|
|
\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 12 Because what they say is sinful,
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 allow them to be trapped for being proud.
|
|
|
|
|
\q1 Because they are always cursing and telling lies,
|
|
|
|
|
\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 13 because you are angry, get rid of them;
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 destroy them completely
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 so that people will know that you rule over us, your Israelite people,
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 and that you rule over all the earth.

2016-04-01 21:07:40 +00:00

\v 15 They roam around, searching for food
|
2016-04-01 21:07:40 +00:00
|

|
|
|
|
\q2 every morning I will sing joyfully about your faithfully loving us.
|
|
|
|
|
\q1 I will sing about how you protected me when I was very distressed.

\v 17 God, you are the one who enables me to be strong;

|
\q2 you are my refuge;
|
|
|
|
|
\q2 you faithfully love me, just as you have promised in your covenant.
