1 Rescue me from my enemies, O my God.
2 Rescue me from troublemakers.
3 They lie in ambush for me right here!
4 or any sin, or any guilt on my part.
5 O Lord God of Armies, God of Israel,
6 They return in the evening.
7 See what pours out of their mouths—
8 O Lord, you laugh at them.
9 O my strength, I watch for you!
10 God will come to meet me.
11 Do not kill them.
12 ⌞because of⌟ the sins from their mouths
13 Destroy them in your rage.
14 They return in the evening.
15 They wander around to find something to eat.
16 But I will sing about your strength.
17 O my strength, I will make music to praise you!
