1For the chief musician; set to Al Tashheth. A psalm of David. A michtam; when Saul sent, and they watched the house to kill him. Rescue me from my enemies, my God; set me on high away from those who rise up against me.
2Keep me safe from the workers of iniquity, and save me from the bloodthirsty men.
3For, see, they wait in ambush to take my life. The powerful men gather themselves together against me, but not because of my transgression or my sin, Yahweh.
4They prepare to run at me although I am without fault; awake and help me and see.
5You, Yahweh God of hosts, the God of Israel, arise and punish all the nations; do not be merciful to any wicked transgressors. Selah
6They return at evening, they howl like dogs and go around the city.
7See, they belch out with their mouths; swords are in their lips, for they say, “Who hears us?”
8But you, Yahweh, laugh at them; you hold all the nations in derision.
9God, my strength, I will pay attention to you; you are my high tower.
10My God will meet me with his covenant faithfulness; God will let me see my desire on my enemies.
11Do not kill them, or my people will forget. Scatter them by your power and make them fall, Lord our shield.
12For the sins of their mouths and the words of their lips, let them be captured in their pride, and for the curses and lies that they express.
13Consume them in wrath, consume them so that they will be no more; let them know that God rules in Jacob and to the ends of the earth. Selah
14At evening they return, howling like dogs going around the city.
15They wander about looking for food and they growl like a dog if they are not satisfied.
16But I will sing about your strength, and in the morning I will sing about your steadfast love! For you have been my high tower and a refuge in the day of my distress.
17To you, my strength, I will sing praises; for God is my high tower, the God of covenant faithfulness.
