Tehillim 59

²Save me from mine enemies, O Elohai;

protect me from them that rise up against me.

³Deliver me from the po'alei aven (workers of iniquity) ,

and save me from anshei damim (bloody men) .

⁴For, hinei, they lie in wait for my nefesh;

the fierce stir up strife against me;

not for my peysha, nor for my chattat, Hashem .

⁵They run and prepare themselves without my avon (wrong, fault) ;

awake to help me, and see.

⁶Thou therefore, Hashem Elohim Tzva'os,

Elohei Yisroel,

rouse Thyself to visit kol HaGoyim;

be not merciful to any bogedei aven (wicked boged) .

Selah

⁷They return at erev;

they growl like a kelev (dog) ,

and prowl around the Ir.

⁸Hinei, they belch out with their mouth;

charavot (swords) are in their sfatot (lips) ;

for who, say they, doth hear?

⁹But Thou, Hashem , shalt laugh at them;

Thou shalt have all the Goyim in derision.

¹⁰O my Strength, I will be shomer to watch for Thee;

for Elohim is my stronghold.

¹¹The G-d of my chesed shall come to meet me;

Elohim shall let me see [the end] of my shorer (watchers) .

¹²Slay them not, lest my people forget;

scatter them by Thy power;

and bring them down, Adonoi mogineinu (our Shield) .

¹³For the chattat of their mouth and the davar of their sfatayim,

let them even be caught in their ga'on (pride) ;

and for the cursing and lying which they speak.

¹⁴Consume them in chemah (wrath) ,

consume them, till they are no more;

and let them know that Elohim ruleth in Ya'akov

unto the ends of ha'aretz.

Selah

¹⁵And at erev let them return;

and let them growl like a kelev,

and prowl around the Ir.

¹⁶Let them wander up and down for okhel (food) ,

and howl if they be not satisfied.

¹⁷But I will sing of Thy oz;

yes, I will sing aloud of Thy chesed in the boker;

for Thou hast been my stronghold

and refuge in the day of my tzoros.

¹⁸Unto Thee, O my Strength, will I sing;

for Elohim is my strongold, and the Elohim of my chesed.
