Delivermy soulfrom the sword,My only[life] from the powerof the dog.
Arise,O LORD,confronthim, bringhim low;Delivermy soulfrom the wickedwith Your sword,
Lord,howlongwill You lookon? Rescuemy soulfrom their ravages,My only[life] from the lions.
Let those be ashamedand humiliatedtogetherWho seekmy lifeto destroyit; Let those be turnedbackand dishonoredWhodelightin my hurt.
Oh drawnearto my soul[and] redeemit; Ransomme becauseof my enemies!
O LORDmy God,ifI have donethis,Ifthereis injusticein my hands,
Let those be ashamedand humiliatedWho seekmy life;Let those be turnedbackand dishonoredWho delightin my hurt.
"Awake,O sword,againstMy Shepherd,And againstthe man,My Associate,"Declaresthe LORDof hosts."Strikethe Shepherdthat the sheepmay be scattered;And I will turnMy handagainstthe littleones.
