Deliver me from my enemies

(1 Samuel 19:1-24)
1
TO THE OVERSEER. “DO NOT DESTROY.” A MIKTAM OF DAVID, IN SAUL’S SENDING, AND THEY WATCH THE HOUSE TO PUT HIM TO DEATH. Deliver me from my enemies, O my God, || Set me on high from my withstanders.
2
Deliver me from workers of iniquity, || And save me from men of blood.
3
For behold, they laid wait for my soul, || Strong ones are assembled against me, || Not my transgression nor my sin, O YHWH.
4
Without punishment they run and prepare themselves, || Stir up to meet me, and see.
5
And You, YHWH, God of Hosts, God of Israel, || Awake to inspect all the nations. Do not favor any treacherous dealers of iniquity. Selah.
6
They return at evening, || They make a noise like a dog, || And go around the city.
7
Behold, they belch out with their mouths, || Swords [are] in their lips, for “Who hears?”
8
And You, O YHWH, laugh at them, || You mock at all the nations.
9
O my Strength, to You I take heed, || For God [is] my tower—the God of my kindness.
10
God goes before me, || He causes me to look on my enemies.
11
Do not slay them, lest my people forget, || Shake them by Your strength, || And bring them down, O Lord our shield.
12
The sin of their mouth [is] a word of their lips, || And they are captured in their pride, || And they recount from the curse and lying.
13
Consume in fury, consume and they are not, || And they know that God is ruling in Jacob, || To the ends of the earth. Selah.
14
And they return at evening, || They make a noise like a dog, || And they go around the city.
15
They wander for food, || If they are not satisfied—then they murmur.
16
And I sing of Your strength, || And at morning I sing of Your kindness, || For You have been a tower to me, || And a refuge for me in a day of adversity.
17
O my Strength, I sing praise to You, || For God [is] my tower, the God of my kindness!

Deliver me from my enemies

(1 Samuel 19:1-24)
1
Deliver me from my enemies, my God. Set me on high from those who rise up against me.
2
Deliver me from the workers of iniquity. Save me from the bloodthirsty men.
3
For, behold, they lie in wait for my soul. The mighty gather themselves together against me, not for my disobedience, nor for my sin, LORD.
4
I have done no wrong, yet they are ready to attack me. Rise up, behold, and help me!
5
You, LORD God of Armies, the God of Israel, rouse yourself to punish the nations. Show no mercy to the wicked traitors. Selah.
6
They return at evening, howling like dogs, and prowl around the city.
7
Behold, they spew with their mouth. Swords are in their lips, “For”, they say, “who hears us?”
8
But you, LORD, laugh at them. You scoff at all the nations.
9
Oh, my Strength, I watch for you, for God is my high tower.
10
My God will go before me with his loving kindness. God will let me look at my enemies in triumph.
11
Don’t kill them, or my people may forget. Scatter them by your power, and bring them down, Lord our shield.
12
For the sin of their mouth, and the words of their lips, let them be caught in their pride, for the curses and lies which they utter.
13
Consume them in wrath. Consume them, and they will be no more. Let them know that God rules in Jacob, to the ends of the earth. Selah.
14
At evening let them return. Let them howl like a dog, and go around the city.
15
They shall wander up and down for food, and wait all night if they aren’t satisfied.
16
But I will sing of your strength. Yes, I will sing aloud of your loving kindness in the morning. For you have been my high tower, a refuge in the day of my distress.
17
To you, my strength, I will sing praises. For God is my high tower, the God of my mercy.
