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,
When evildoers assail me to devour my flesh— my adversaries and foes— they shall stumble and fall.
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.
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?
