David also said to Abishai and all his officers, “My own son is trying to kill me! This man is a Benjaminite and has more right to kill me! Leave him alone, and let him curse me because the Lord told him to do this.
The Lord tests those who do right, but he hates the wicked and those who love to hurt others.
Lord, even when I have trouble all around me, you will keep me alive. When my enemies are angry, you will reach down and save me by your power.
Lord, rescue me from evil people; protect me from cruel people
Don’t let liars settle in the land. Let evil quickly hunt down cruel people.
Lord, guard me from the power of wicked people; protect me from cruel people who plan to trip me up.
My enemies are chasing me; they crushed me to the ground. They made me live in darkness like those long dead.
He saves me from my enemies. You set me over those who hate me. You saved me from violent people.
Do not hand me over to my enemies, because they tell lies about me and say they will hurt me.
Evil people may try to destroy my body. My enemies and those who hate me attack me, but they are overwhelmed and defeated.
My enemies are strong and healthy, and many hate me for no reason.
They repay me with evil for the good I did. They lie about me because I try to do good.
You think up evil plans. Your tongue is like a sharp razor, making up lies.
My enemies have chased me all day; there are many proud people fighting me.
Enemies, like lions, are all around me; I must lie down among them. Their teeth are like spears and arrows, their tongues as sharp as swords.
God, proud people are attacking me; a gang of cruel people is trying to kill me. They do not respect you.
The leading priests and teachers of the law were trying to find a way to kill Jesus, because they were afraid of the people.
