 59:1 ¶
[[For the end. Destroy not: by David for a memorial, when Saul sent, and watched his house to kill him.]] Deliver me from mine enemies, O God; and ransom me from those that rise up against me. |

 59:1 ¶
[[To the chief Musician,ºº
Altaschith,ºº
Michtamº
of David;º
when Saulº
sent,ºº
and they watchedººº
the houseº
to killº
him.]]ºº
Deliverºº
me from mine enemies,ººº
O my Elohim:º
defendºº
me from them that rise upºº
againstºº
me. |
 59:2
Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from bloody men. |
|
 59:2
Deliverºº
me from the workersººº
of iniquity,º
and saveºº
me from bloodyº
men.ººº |
 59:3
For, behold, they have hunted after my soul; violent men have set upon me: neither [is it] my iniquity, nor my sin, O Lord. |
|
 59:3
For,º
lo,º
they lie in waitºº
for my soul:º
the mightyº
are gatheredºº
againstº
me; notº
[for] my transgression,º
norº
[for] my sin,º
O Yahweh.º |
 59:4
Without iniquity I ran and directed [my course aright]: awake to help me, and behold. |
|
 59:4
They runºº
and prepareºº
themselvesº
withoutº
[my] fault:º
awakeºº
to helpºº
me, and behold.ºº |
 59:5
And thou, Lord God of hosts, the God of Israel, draw nigh to visit all the heathen; pity not any that work iniquity. Pause. |
|
 59:5
Thouº
therefore, O Yahwehº
Elohimº
Sabaoth,º
the Elohimº
of Israel,º
awakeºº
to visitºº
allº
the heathen:º
be notº
mercifulºº
to anyº
wickedº
transgressors.ºº
Selah.º |
 59:6
They shall return at evening, and hunger like a dog, and go round about the city. |
|
 59:6
They returnºº
at evening:º
they make a noiseºº
like a dog,º
and go round aboutºº
the city.º |
 59:7
Behold, they shall utter a voice with their mouth, and a sword is in their lips; for who, [say they], has heard? |
|
 59:7
Behold,º
they belch outºº
with their mouth:º
swordsº
[are] in their lips:º
forº
who,º
[say they], doth hear?ºº |
 59:8
But thou, Lord, wilt laugh them to scorn; thou wilt utterly set at nought all the heathen. |
|
 59:8
But thou,º
O Yahweh,º
shalt laughºº
at them; thou shalt have allº
the heathenº
in derision.ºº |
 59:9
I will keep my strength, [looking] to thee; for thou, O God, art my helper. |
|
 59:9
[Because of] his strengthº
will I waitºº
uponº
thee: forº
Elohimº
[is] my defence.º |
 59:10
[As for] my God, his mercy shall go before me: my God will shew me [vengeance] on mine enemies. |
|
 59:10
The Elohimº
of my mercyº
shall preventºº
me: Elohimº
shall let me seeºº
[my desire] upon mine enemies.ºº |
 59:11
Slay them not, lest they forget thy law; scatter them by thy power; and bring them down, O Lord, my defender. |
|
 59:11
Slayºº
them not,º
lestº
my peopleº
forget:ºº
scatterºº
them by thy power;º
and bring them down,ºº
O Yahwehº
our shield.º |
 59:12
[For] the sin of their mouth, [and] the word of their lips, let them be even taken in their pride. |
|
 59:12
[For] the sinº
of their mouthº
[and] the wordsº
of their lipsº
let them even be takenºº
in their pride:º
and for cursingºº
and lyingºº
[which] they speak.ºº |
 59:13
And for [their] cursing and falsehood shall utter destruction be denounced: [they shall fall] by the wrath of utter destruction, and shall not be; so shall they know that the God of Jacob is Lord of the ends of the earth. Pause. |
|
 59:13
Consumeºº
[them] in wrath,º
consumeºº
[them], that they [may] notº
[be]: and let them knowºº
thatº
Elohimº
rulethºº
in Jacobº
unto the endsº
of the earth.º
Selah.º |
 59:14
They shall return at evening, and be hungry as a dog, and go round about the city. |
|
 59:14
And at eveningº
let them return;ºº
[and] let them make a noiseºº
like a dog,º
and go round aboutºº
the city.º |
 59:15
They shall be scattered hither and thither for meat; and if they be not satisfied, they shall even murmur. |
|
 59:15
Let themº
wander up and downºººº
for meat,ºº
and grudgeºº
ifº
they be notº
satisfied.ºº |
 59:16
But I will sing to thy strength, and in the morning will I exult [in] thy mercy; for thou hast been my supporter, and my refuge in the day of mine affliction. |
|
 59:16
But Iº
will singºº
of thy power;º
yea, I will sing aloudºº
of thy mercyº
in the morning:º
forº
thou hast beenº
my defenceº
and refugeº
in the dayº
of my trouble.º |
 59:17
[Thou art] my helper; to thee, my God, will I sing; thou art my supporter, O my God, [and] my mercy. |
|
 59:17
Untoº
thee, O my strength,º
will I sing:ºº
forº
Elohimº
[is] my defence,º
[and] the Elohimº
of my mercy.º |
