- 0. To him that excelleth.<br>
Destroy not.<br>
A Psalme of Dauid on Michtam.<br>
When Saul sent and they did watch the house to kill him. - 1. O my God, deliuer mee from mine enemies: defend me fro them that rise vp against me.
- 2. Deliuer me from the wicked doers, and saue me from the bloody men.
- 3. For loe, they haue layd waite for my soule: the mightie men are gathered against me, not for mine offence, nor for my sinne, O Lord.
- 4. They runne and prepare themselues without a fault on my part: arise therefore to assist me, and beholde.
- 5. Euen thou, O Lorde God of hostes, O God of Israel awake to visit all the heathen, and be not merciful vnto all that transgresse maliciously. Selah.
- 6. They goe to and fro in the euening: they barke like dogs, and goe about the citie.
- 7. Behold, they brag in their talke, & swords are in their lips: for, Who, say they, doeth heare?
- 8. But thou, O Lord, shalt haue them in derision, and thou shalt laugh at all the heathen.
- 9. He is strong: but I will waite vpon thee: for God is my defence.
- 10. My mercifull God will preuent me: God wil let me see my desire vpon mine enemies.
- 11. Slay them not, least my people forget it: but scatter them abroad by thy power, and put them downe, O Lord our shield,
- 12. For the sinne of their mouth, and the words of their lips: and let them be taken in their pride, euen for their periurie and lies, that they speake.
- 13. Consume them in thy wrath: consume them that they be no more: and let them knowe that God ruleth in Iaakob, euen vnto the ends of the world. Selah.
- 14. And in the euening they shall go to and fro, and barke like dogs, and go about the citie.
- 15. They shall runne here and there for meate: and surely they shall not be satisfied, though they tary all night.
- 16. But I wil sing of thy power, & will prayse thy mercy in the morning: for thou hast bene my defence and refuge in the day of my trouble.
- 17. Vnto thee, O my Strength, wil I sing: for God is my defence, and my mercifull God.
