¹ H5329 To the chief Musician [H8764]   H5058 on Neginoth H4905 , Maschil [H8688]   H1732 , A Psalm of David H238 . Give ear [H8685]   H8605 to my prayer H430 , O God H5956 ; and hide [H8691]   H8467 not thyself from my supplication.

² H7181 Attend [H8685]   H6030 unto me, and hear [H8798]   H7300 me: I mourn [H8686]   H7879 in my complaint H1949 , and make a noise [H8686]  ;

³ H6963 Because of the voice H341 of the enemy [H8802]   H6440 , because H6125 of the oppression H7563 of the wicked H4131 : for they cast [H8686]   H205 iniquity H639 upon me, and in wrath H7852 they hate [H8799]   me.

⁴ H3820 My heart H2342 is sore pained [H8799]   H7130 within H367 me: and the terrors H4194 of death H5307 are fallen [H8804]   upon me.

⁵ H3374 Fearfulness H7461 and trembling H935 are come [H8799]   H6427 upon me, and horror H3680 hath overwhelmed [H8762]   me.

⁶ H559 And I said [H8799]   H5414 , Oh that [H8799]   H83 I had wings H3123 like a dove H5774 ! for then would I fly away [H8799]   H7931 , and be at rest [H8799]  .

⁷ H5074 Lo, then would I wander [H8800]   H7368 far off [H8686]   H3885 , and remain [H8799]   H4057 in the wilderness H5542 . Selah.

⁸ H2363 I would hasten [H8686]   H4655 my escape H7307 from the windy H5584 storm [H8801]   H5591 and tempest.

⁹ H1104 Destroy [H8761]   H136 , O Lord H6385 , and divide [H8761]   H3956 their tongues H7200 : for I have seen [H8804]   H2555 violence H7379 and strife H5892 in the city.

¹⁰ H3119 Day H3915 and night H5437 they go about [H8779]   H2346 it upon the walls H205 thereof: mischief H5999 also and sorrow H7130 are in the midst of it.

¹¹ H1942 Wickedness H7130 is in the midst H8496 thereof: deceit H4820 and guile H4185 depart [H8686]   H7339 not from her streets.

¹² H341 For it was not an enemy [H8802]   H2778 that reproached [H8762]   H5375 me; then I could have borne [H8799]   H8130 it : neither was it he that hated [H8764]   H1431 me that did magnify [H8689]   H5641 himself against me; then I would have hid [H8735]   myself from him:

¹³ H582 But it was thou, a man H6187 mine equal H441 , my guide H3045 , and mine acquaintance [H8794]  .

¹⁴ H4985 We took sweet [H8686]   H5475 counsel H3162 together H1980 , and walked [H8762]   H1004 unto the house H430 of God H7285 in company.

¹⁵ H4194 Let death H5377 seize [H8686]   [H8675]   H3451   H3381 upon them, and let them go down [H8799]   H2416 quick H7585 into hell H7451 : for wickedness H4033 is in their dwellings H7130 , and among them.

¹⁶ H7121 As for me, I will call [H8799]   H430 upon God H3068 ; and the LORD H3467 shall save [H8686]   me.

¹⁷ H6153 Evening H1242 , and morning H6672 , and at noon H7878 , will I pray [H8799]   H1993 , and cry aloud [H8799]   H8085 : and he shall hear [H8799]   H6963 my voice.

¹⁸ H6299 He hath delivered [H8804]   H5315 my soul H7965 in peace H7128 from the battle H7227 that was against me: for there were many with me.

¹⁹ H410 God H8085 shall hear [H8799]   H6030 , and afflict [H8799]   H3427 them, even he that abideth [H8802]   H6924 of old H5542 . Selah H2487 . Because they have no changes H3372 , therefore they fear [H8804]   H430 not God.

²⁰ H7971 He hath put forth [H8804]   H3027 his hands H7965 against such as be at peace H2490 with him: he hath broken [H8765]   H1285 his covenant.

²¹ H6310 The words of his mouth H2505 were smoother [H8804]   H4260 than butter H7128 , but war H3820 was in his heart H1697 : his words H7401 were softer [H8804]   H8081 than oil H6609 , yet were they drawn swords.

²² H7993 Cast [H8685]   H3053 thy burden H3068 upon the LORD H3557 , and he shall sustain [H8770]   H5769 thee: he shall never H5414 suffer [H8799]   H6662 the righteous H4131 to be moved [H8800]  .

²³ H430 But thou, O God H3381 , shalt bring them down [H8686]   H875 into the pit H7845 of destruction H1818 : bloody H4820 and deceitful H582 men H2673 shall not live out half [H8799]   H3117 their days H982 ; but I will trust [H8799]   in thee.
