Psalms 59:4-13

⁴Lord, I ran without wickedness, and dressed my works. Rise up into my meeting, and see;

⁵and thou, Lord God of virtues, art God of Israel. Give thou attention to visit all folks; do thou not mercy to all that work wickedness.

⁶They shall be turned at eventide, and they as dogs shall suffer hunger; and they shall compass, that is, go abegging in, the city.

⁷Lo! they shall speak in their mouth, and a sword in their lips; for who heard?

⁸And thou, Lord, shalt scorn them; thou shalt bring all folks to nought.

⁹I shall keep my strength to thee; for God is mine up-taker,

¹⁰my God, his mercy shall come before me. God showed to me my desire on mine enemies,

¹¹slay thou not them; lest any time my peoples forget. Scatter thou them in thy virtue; and, Lord, my defender, put thou them down.

¹²Put down the trespass of their mouth, and the word of their lips; and be they taken in their pride. And of cursing and of leasing; they shall be showed in the ending.

¹³In the ire of ending, and they shall not be; and they shall know, that the Lord shall be Lord of Jacob, and of the ends of earth.
