2God, listen to my prayer; listen to what I say to you,
3because strangers are trying to attack me; proud men are wanting to kill me; men who do not have any ◄respect for/interest in► you.
4But God is the one who helps me; Yahweh defends/protects me from my enemies.
5He will cause the evil things that they want to do to me to happen to them instead; because he faithfully does what he promises, he will get rid of them.
