Psalms 59:3-9

³For, lo! they lie in wait for my life; The mighty are gathered against me, Without any offence or fault of mine, O LORD!

⁴Without any offence of mine, they run and prepare themselves; Awake to help me, and behold!

⁵Do thou, O Jehovah, God of hosts, God of Israel, Awake to punish all the nations! Show no mercy to any wicked transgressors! Pause.

⁶Let them return at evening, Let them howl like dogs, And go round about the city!

⁷Behold! with their mouths they belch out malice; Swords are upon their lips; “For who,” say they, “will hear?”

⁸Yet thou, O LORD! wilt laugh at them; Thou wilt hold all the nations in derision!

⁹O my Strength! to thee will I look! For God is my defence;
