< Psalms 59 >

1 To the choirmaster al-tashcheth of David a miktam when sent Saul and people watched the house to kill him. Deliver me from enemies my - O God my from [those who] rise up against me may you set on high me.
To the Chief Musician. "Do not Destroy." A precious Psalm of David. When Saul sent, and they watched the house, to kill him. Rescue me from my foes, O my God, From them who lift themselves up against me, wilt thou set me on high:
2 Deliver me from [those who] do wickedness and from men of blood save me.
Rescue me, from the workers of iniquity, And, from the men of bloodshed, 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.
For lo! they have lain in wait for my life, Mighty ones stir up strife against me, Without transgression of mine, and without sin of mine, O Yahweh;
4 Not iniquity they run! and they may be established awake! to meet me and see.
For no iniquity, do they run that they may take their stand, Rouse thyself 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)
Thou, therefore, O Yahweh, God of hosts, God of Israel, Awake, to visit all the nations, Do not show favour to any iniquitous traitors. (Selah)
6 They return to evening they growl like dog so they may go around [the] city.
They return at evening, They grow like a dog, And go round the city.
7 Here! - they pour forth! with mouth their swords [are] on lips their for who? [is] hearing.
Lo! they belch forth with their mouth, Swords, are in their lips, For [say they], Who doth hear?
8 And you O Yahweh you laugh to them you mock all [the] nations.
Thou, therefore, O Yahweh, wilt laugh at them, Thou wilt mock at all nations.
9 Strength his to you I will watch for God [is] refuge my.
O my Strength, unto thee, will I make melody, For, God, is my high tower.
10 [the] God of (Covenant loyalty my *Q(K)*) he will meet me God he will let look me on enemies my.
My God of lovingkindness, will come to meet me, God, will let me look on mine adversaries.
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.
Do not slay them, lest my people forget, Cause them to wander by thy strength, and prostrate them, [Thou] our shield, 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.
The sin of their mouth, The word of their lips, Let them then be captured in their pride, Both for the oath and for the deception they record.
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)
Bring to a full end in wrath, Bring to a full end, that they be no more, —That men may know that, God, is ruling in Jacob, Unto the ends of the earth. (Selah)
14 So they may return to evening they growl like dog so they may go around [the] city.
Let them return, then, at evening, Let them growl like a dog, And go round the city.
15 They (they make wander about! *Q(K)*) to eat if not they are satisfied and they passed [the] night.
They, may prowl about for food, —And, if they are not satisfied, then let them whine!
16 And I - I will sing strength your so I may sing for joy to the morning covenant loyalty your for you have been a refuge of me and a place of escape on [the] day [when] it is distress to me.
But, I, will sing thy power, And will shout aloud, in the morning, thy lovingkindness, —For thou has become a refuge for me, And a place to flee to in the day of my distress.
17 O strength my to you I will sing praises for God [is] refuge my [the] God of covenant loyalty my.
O my Strength, unto thee, will I make melody, For, God, is my high tower, my God of lovingkindness.
