Deliver me from those who work evil; from the bloodthirsty, save me.
O that you would kill the wicked, O God, and that the bloodthirsty would depart from me—
Do not sweep me away with sinners nor my life with the bloodthirsty,
But you, O God, will cast them down into the lowest pit; the bloodthirsty and treacherous shall not live out half their days. But I will trust in you.
When evildoers assail me to devour my flesh— my adversaries and foes— they shall stumble and fall.
or like a lion they will tear me apart; they will drag me away, with no one to rescue.
Who rises up for me against the wicked? Who stands up for me against evildoers?
