King James Bible

  • For the choir director: A psalm of David.

    O LORD, rescue me from evil people.
    Protect me from those who are violent,
  • Deliver Me, O Lord, From the Evil Man

    {To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.} Deliver me, O LORD, from the evil man: preserve me from the violent man;
  • those who plot evil in their hearts
    and stir up trouble all day long.
  • Which imagine mischiefs in their heart; continually are they gathered together for war.
  • Their tongues sting like a snake;
    the venom of a viper drips from their lips.
    Interlude
  • They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent; adders' poison is under their lips. Selah.
  • O LORD, keep me out of the hands of the wicked.
    Protect me from those who are violent,
    for they are plotting against me.
  • Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked; preserve me from the violent man; who have purposed to overthrow my goings.
  • The proud have set a trap to catch me;
    they have stretched out a net;
    they have placed traps all along the way.
    Interlude
  • The proud have hid a snare for me, and cords; they have spread a net by the wayside; they have set gins for me. Selah.
  • I said to the LORD, “You are my God!”
    Listen, O LORD, to my cries for mercy!
  • I said unto the LORD, Thou art my God: hear the voice of my supplications, O LORD.
  • O Sovereign LORD, the strong one who rescued me,
    you protected me on the day of battle.
  • O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation, thou hast covered my head in the day of battle.
  • LORD, do not let evil people have their way.
    Do not let their evil schemes succeed,
    or they will become proud.
    Interlude
  • Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked: further not his wicked device; lest they exalt themselves. Selah.
  • Let my enemies be destroyed
    by the very evil they have planned for me.
  • As for the head of those that compass me about, let the mischief of their own lips cover them.
  • Let burning coals fall down on their heads.
    Let them be thrown into the fire
    or into watery pits from which they can’t escape.
  • Let burning coals fall upon them: let them be cast into the fire; into deep pits, that they rise not up again.
  • Don’t let liars prosper here in our land.
    Cause great disasters to fall on the violent.
  • Let not an evil speaker be established in the earth: evil shall hunt the violent man to overthrow him.
  • But I know the LORD will help those they persecute;
    he will give justice to the poor.
  • I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted, and the right of the poor.
  • Surely righteous people are praising your name;
    the godly will live in your presence.
  • Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto thy name: the upright shall dwell in thy presence.
