2Deliver me from workers of iniquity, And from men of blood save me.
3For, lo, they laid wait for my soul, Assembled against me are strong ones, Not my transgression nor my sin, O Jehovah.
4Without punishment they run and prepare themselves, Stir up to meet me, and see.
5And Thou, Jehovah, God of Hosts, God of Israel, Awake to inspect all the nations. Favour not any treacherous dealers of iniquity. Selah.
6They turn back at evening, They make a noise like a dog, And go round about the city.
7Lo, they belch out with their mouths, Swords [are] in their lips, for `Who heareth?`
