1Unto the end, a psalm of David.stylus2Deliver me, O Lord, from the evil man: rescue me from the unjust man.stylus3Who have devised iniquities in their hearts: all the day long they designed battles.stylus4They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent: the venom of asps is under their lips.stylus5Keep me, O Lord, from the hand of the wicked: and from unjust men deliver me. Who have proposed to supplant my steps:stylus6The proud have hidden a net for me. And they have stretched out cords for a snare: they have laid for me a stumblingblock by the wayside.stylus7I said to the Lord: Thou art my God: hear, O Lord, the voice of my supplication.stylus8O Lord, Lord, the strength of my salvation: thou hast overshadowed my head in the day of battle.stylus9Give me not up, O Lord, from my desire to the wicked: they have plotted against me; do not thou forsake me, lest they should triumph.stylus10The head of them compassing me about: the labour of their lips shall overwhelm them.stylus11Burning coals shall fall upon them; thou wilt cast them down into the fire: in miseries they shall not be able to stand.stylus12A man full of tongue shall not be established in the earth: evil shall catch the unjust man unto destruction.stylus13I know that the Lord will do justice to the needy, and will revenge the poor.stylus14But as for the just, they shall give glory to thy name: and the upright shall dwell with thy countenance.stylus
