2 Deliver me from [those who] do wickedness and from men of blood save me.
3 For here! they lie in wait for life my they stir up trouble on me fierce [people] not transgression my and not sin my O Yahweh.
4 Not iniquity they run! and they may be established awake! to meet me and see.
5 And you O Yahweh God of - hosts [the] God of Israel awake! to punish all the nations may not you show favor to all [those who] act treacherously of wickedness (Selah)
6 They return to evening they growl like dog so they may go around [the] city.
7 Here! - they pour forth! with mouth their swords [are] on lips their for who? [is] hearing.
8 And you O Yahweh you laugh to them you mock all [the] nations.
9 Strength his to you I will watch for God [is] refuge my.
10 [the] God of (Covenant loyalty my *QK) he will meet me God he will let look me on enemies my.
11 May not you kill them - lest they should forget people my make wander about them by strength your and bring down them O shield our O Lord.
12 [the] sin of Mouth their [the] word of lips their and let them be caught in pride their and from a curse and from lying [which] they speak.
13 Make an end in anger make an end and there not [will be] them so they may know that God [is] ruling over Jacob to [the] ends of the earth (Selah)
14 So they may return to evening they growl like dog so they may go around [the] city.
