1Do ye indeed in silence speak righteousness? Do ye judge uprightly, O ye sons of men?
1Do ye indeed speak righteousness, O congregation? do ye judge uprightly, O ye sons of men?
1Unto the end, destroy not, for David for an inscription of a title, when Saul sent and watched his house to kill him.
2Nay, in heart ye work wickedness; Ye weigh out the violence of your hands in the earth.
2Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh the violence of your hands in the earth.
2Deliver me from my enemies, O my God; and defend me from them that rise up against me.
3The wicked are estranged from the womb: They go astray as soon as they are born, speaking lies.
3The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they be born, speaking lies.
3Deliver me from them that work iniquity, and save me from bloody men.
4Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: They are like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear,
4Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: they are like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear;
4For behold they have caught my soul: the mighty have rushed in upon me:
5Which hearkeneth not to the voice of charmers, Charming never so wisely.
5Which will not hearken to the voice of charmers, charming never so wisely.
5Neither is it my iniquity, nor my sin, O Lord: without iniquity have I run, and directed my steps.
6Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth: Break out the great teeth of the young lions, O Jehovah.
6Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth: break out the great teeth of the young lions, O Lord.
6Rise up thou to meet me, and behold: even thou, O Lord, the God of hosts, the God of Israel. Attend to visit all the nations: have no mercy on all them that work iniquity.
7Let them melt away as water that runneth apace: When he aimeth his arrows, let them be as though they were cut off.
7Let them melt away as waters which run continually: when he bendeth his bow to shoot his arrows, let them be as cut in pieces.
7They shall return at evening, and shall suffer hunger like dogs: and shall go round about the city.
8Let them beas a snail which melteth and passeth away, Likethe untimely birth of a woman, that hath not seen the sun.
8As a snail which melteth, let every one of them pass away: like the untimely birth of a woman, that they may not see the sun.
8Behold they shall speak with their mouth, and a sword is in their lips: for who, say they, hath heard us?
9Before your pots can feel the thorns, He will take them away with a whirlwind, the green and the burning alike.
9Before your pots can feel the thorns, he shall take them away as with a whirlwind, both living, and in his wrath.
9But thou, O Lord, shalt laugh at them: thou shalt bring all the nations to nothing.
10The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: He shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked;
10The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: he shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.
10I will keep my strength to thee: for thou art my protector:
11So that men shall say, Verily there is a reward for the righteous: Verily there is a God that judgeth in the earth.
11So that a man shall say, Verily there is a reward for the righteous: verily he is a God that judgeth in the earth.
11My God, his mercy shall prevent me.

12God shall let me see over my enemies: slay them not, lest at any time my people forget. Scatter them by thy power; and bring them down, O Lord, my protector:
