Psalms 59

Lexham English Bible LEB

1 Deliver me from my enemies, O my God. Protect me from those who rise up against me.

2 Deliver me from workers of iniquity, and from men of bloodshed save me.

3 For look, they lie in wait for my life. The mighty attack against me, not [because of] my transgression or my sin, O Yahweh.

4 Without guilt on my part they run and ready themselves. Awake to meet me and see.

5 And you, Yahweh, God [of] hosts, [are] the God of Israel. Rouse yourself to punish all the nations. Do not be gracious to any [who] treacherously plot evil. Selah

6 They return at evening; they howl like dogs while they prowl [the] city.

7 Look, they pour out [talk] with their mouth. Swords [are] on their lips, for [they say], "Who hears?"

8 But you, O Yahweh, will laugh at them; you will mock all [the] nations.

9 O my strength, I will watch for you, because [you], O God, [are] my (high) stronghold.

10 My God of loyal love will meet me; God will cause me to look [in triumph] on my enemies.

11 Do not kill them, lest my people forget. Make them [to] wander by your power, and bring them down, O Lord, our shield.

12 [By] the sin of their mouth [and] the words of their lips, even in their pride, let them be trapped, and for [the] curses and lies they proclaim.

13 Destroy in anger; destroy so they are no more, so that they may know that God [is] ruling in Jacob to the ends of the earth. Selah

14 They return at evening; they howl like dogs while they prowl [the] city.

15 As for them, they wander for food. If they are not satisfied, then they continue all night.

16 But as for me, I will sing [of] your strength, and I will hail your loyal love in the morning, because you have been my [high] stronghold and a refuge in my {time} of trouble.

17 O my strength, to you I will give praise, because God [is] my [high] stronghold, my God of loyal love.

New International Version NIV

1 Deliver me from my enemies, O God; be my fortress against those who are attacking me.

2 Deliver me from evildoers and save me from those who are after my blood.

3 See how they lie in wait for me! Fierce men conspire against me for no offense or sin of mine, LORD.

4 I have done no wrong, yet they are ready to attack me. Arise to help me; look on my plight!

5 You, LORD God Almighty, you who are the God of Israel, rouse yourself to punish all the nations; show no mercy to wicked traitors.

6 They return at evening, snarling like dogs, and prowl about the city.

7 See what they spew from their mouths— the words from their lips are sharp as swords, and they think, “Who can hear us?”

8 But you laugh at them, LORD; you scoff at all those nations.

9 You are my strength, I watch for you; you, God, are my fortress,

10 my God on whom I can rely. God will go before me and will let me gloat over those who slander me.

11 But do not kill them, Lord our shield,or my people will forget. In your might uproot them and bring them down.

12 For the sins of their mouths, for the words of their lips, let them be caught in their pride. For the curses and lies they utter,

13 consume them in your wrath, consume them till they are no more. Then it will be known to the ends of the earth that God rules over Jacob.

14 They return at evening, snarling like dogs, and prowl about the city.

15 They wander about for food and howl if not satisfied.

16 But I will sing of your strength, in the morning I will sing of your love; for you are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble.

17 You are my strength, I sing praise to you; you, God, are my fortress, my God on whom I can rely.
