King James New American Standard Bible
  • 1 Give ear to my prayer, O God; and hide not thyself from my supplication.
  • 2 Attend unto me, and hear me: I mourn in my complaint, and make a noise;
  • 3 Because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked: for they cast iniquity upon me, and in wrath they hate me.
  • 4 My heart is sore pained within me: and the terrors of death are fallen upon me.
  • 5 Fearfulness and trembling are come upon me, and horror hath overwhelmed me.
  • 6 And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at rest.
  • 7 Lo, then would I wander far off, and remain in the wilderness. Selah.
  • 8 I would hasten my escape from the windy storm and tempest.
  • 9 Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongues: for I have seen violence and strife in the city.
  • 10 Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof: mischief also and sorrow are in the midst of it.
  • 11 Wickedness is in the midst thereof: deceit and guile depart not from her streets.
  • 12 For it was not an enemy that reproached me; then I could have borne it: neither was it he that hated me that did magnify himself against me; then I would have hid myself from him:
  • 13 But it was thou, a man mine equal, my guide, and mine acquaintance.
  • 14 We took sweet counsel together, and walked unto the house of God in company.
  • 15 Let death seize upon them, and let them go down quick into hell: for wickedness is in their dwellings, and among them.
  • 16 As for me, I will call upon God; and the LORD shall save me.
  • 17 Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice.
  • 18 He hath delivered my soul in peace from the battle that was against me: for there were many with me.
  • 19 God shall hear, and afflict them, even he that abideth of old. Selah. Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not God.
  • 20 He hath put forth his hands against such as be at peace with him: he hath broken his covenant.
  • 21 The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was in his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet were they drawn swords.
  • 22 Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.
  • 23 But thou, O God, shalt bring them down into the pit of destruction: bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days; but I will trust in thee.
  • 1 Give ear to my prayer, O God; And do not hide Yourself from my supplication.
  • 2 Give heed to me and answer me; I am restless in my complaint and am surely distracted,
  • 3 Because of the voice of the enemy, Because of the pressure of the wicked; For they bring down trouble upon me And in anger they bear a grudge against me.
  • 4 My heart is in anguish within me, And the terrors of death have fallen upon me.
  • 5 Fear and trembling come upon me, And horror has overwhelmed me.
  • 6 I said, “Oh, that I had wings like a dove! I would fly away and be at rest.
  • 7 “Behold, I would wander far away, I would lodge in the wilderness. Selah.
  • 8 “I would hasten to my place of refuge From the stormy wind and tempest.”
  • 9 Confuse, O Lord, divide their tongues, For I have seen violence and strife in the city.
  • 10 Day and night they go around her upon her walls, And iniquity and mischief are in her midst.
  • 11 Destruction is in her midst; Oppression and deceit do not depart from her streets.
  • 12 For it is not an enemy who reproaches me, Then I could bear it; Nor is it one who hates me who has exalted himself against me, Then I could hide myself from him.
  • 13 But it is you, a man my equal, My companion and my familiar friend;
  • 14 We who had sweet fellowship together Walked in the house of God in the throng.
  • 15 Let death come deceitfully upon them; Let them go down alive to Sheol, For evil is in their dwelling, in their midst.
  • 16 As for me, I shall call upon God, And the LORD will save me.
  • 17 Evening and morning and at noon, I will complain and murmur, And He will hear my voice.
  • 18 He will redeem my soul in peace from the battle which is against me, For they are many who strive with me.
  • 19 God will hear and answer them— Even the one who sits enthroned from of old— Selah. With whom there is no change, And who do not fear God.
  • 20 He has put forth his hands against those who were at peace with him; He has violated his covenant.
  • 21 His speech was smoother than butter, But his heart was war; His words were softer than oil, Yet they were drawn swords.
  • 22 Cast your burden upon the LORD and He will sustain you; He will never allow the righteous to be shaken.
  • 23 But You, O God, will bring them down to the pit of destruction; Men of bloodshed and deceit will not live out half their days. But I will trust in You.
