Psalm 27:2

A Conservative Version

When evil-doers came upon me to eat up my flesh, [even] my adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell.

See the chapter Copy

And many shall stumble on it, and fall, and be broken, and be snared, and be taken.

They encompassed me around like bees. They are quenched as the fire of thorns. In the name of LORD I will cut them off.

Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge, who eat up my people [as] they eat bread, and call not upon LORD?

When my enemies turn back, they stumble and perish at thy presence.

Arise, O LORD. Save me, O my God. For thou have smitten all my enemies upon the cheek bone. Thou have broken the teeth of the wicked.

Why do ye persecute me as God, and are not satisfied with my flesh?

For dogs have encompassed me. A company of evil-doers have enclosed me. They pierced (LXX/DSS) my hands and my feet.

The cords of death encompassed me, and the floods of lawlessness made me afraid.

if the men of my tent have not said, Who can find one who has not been filled with his food?

Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge, who eat up my people [as] they eat bread, and call not upon God?
