O
LORD my
God, in thee do I put my
trust:
save me from all them that
persecute me, and
deliver me:

Lest he
tear my

pieces, while there is none to
deliver.

O
LORD my

done this; if there
be iniquity in my
hands;

If I have
rewarded evil unto him that was at
peace with me; (yea, I have
delivered him that without
cause is mine
enemy:)

Let the
enemy persecute my
soul, and
take it; yea, let him tread
down my
life upon the
earth, and
lay mine
honour in the
dust. Selah.

Arise, O
LORD, in thine
anger, lift
up thyself because of the
rage of mine
enemies: and
awake for me to the
judgment that thou hast
commanded.

So shall the

about: for their sakes therefore
return thou on

The
LORD shall
judge the
people: judge me, O
LORD, according to my
righteousness, and according to mine
integrity that is in me.

Oh let the
wickedness of the
wicked come to an
end; but
establish the
just: for the
righteous God trieth the
hearts and
reins.

My

God, which
saveth the

God judgeth the

If he
turn not, he will
whet his

bent his

He hath also
prepared for him the
instruments of
death; he
ordaineth his
arrows against the
persecutors.

His
