1God, be merciful to me because men have harassed me; all day my enemies pursue me.
2My enemies harass me all day long; there are many of them who proudly attack me.
3But whenever I am afraid, I trust in you.
4God, I praise/thank you because you do what you have promised; I trust in you, and then I am not afraid. Ordinary humans certainly cannot RHQ harm me!
5All day long my enemies claim that I said things that I did not say (OR, try to destroy what I am doing); they are always thinking of ways to harm me.
6In order to cause trouble for me, they hide and watch everything that I do, waiting for an opportunity to kill me MTY.
7So, God, punish them for the wicked things that they are doing; show that you are angry by defeating those people!
