Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from the bloodthirsty men.
Surely thou will kill the wicked, O God. Depart from me therefore, ye bloodthirsty men.
Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with men of blood,
But thou, O God, will bring them down into the pit of destruction. Bloodthirsty and deceitful men shall not live out half their days, but I will trust in thee.
When evil-doers came upon me to eat up my flesh, [even] my adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell.
lest they tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
Who will rise up for me against the evil-doers? Who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?
