1 Deliver me, O LORD, from the evil man: preserve me from the violent man;

2 Which imagine mischiefs in their heart; continually are they gathered together for war.

3 They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent; adders’ poison is under their lips. Selah.

4 Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked; preserve me from the violent man; who have purposed to overthrow my goings.

5 The proud have hid a snare for me, and cords; they have spread a net by the wayside; they have set gins for me. Selah.

6 I said unto the LORD, Thou art my God: hear the voice of my supplications, O LORD.

7 O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation, thou hast covered my head in the day of battle.

8 Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked: further not his wicked device; lest they exalt themselves. Selah.

9 As for the head of those that compass me about, let the mischief of their own lips cover them.

10 Let burning coals fall upon them: let them be cast into the fire; into deep pits, that they rise not up again.

11 Let not an evil speaker be established in the earth: evil shall hunt the violent man to overthrow him.

12 I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted, and the right of the poor.

13 Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto thy name: the upright shall dwell in thy presence.

1 耶和华啊！ 求你拯救我脱离恶人， 求你保护我脱离强暴的人。

2 他们心中图谋恶事， 整天挑启争端。

3 他们使自己的舌头尖利， 如同蛇的舌头； 他们嘴里有虺蛇的毒。（细拉）

4 耶和华啊！ 求你保护我脱离恶人的手， 保护我脱离强暴的人， 因为他们图谋推倒我。

5 骄傲的人暗中布下陷阱害我， 他们在路旁张开绳索作网， 设下圈套陷害我。（细拉）

6 我曾对耶和华说： "你是我的 神； 耶和华啊！ 求你留心听我恳求的声音！ "

7 主耶和华， 拯救我的力量啊， 在争战的日子， 你保护了我的头。

8 耶和华啊！ 求你不要容恶人的心愿得偿， 不要使他们的计谋成功， 免得他们自高自大。（细拉）

9 至于那些围困我的人， 愿他们的头被自己嘴唇的奸恶遮盖。

10 愿炭火落在他们身上； 愿他们掉在深坑里， 不能再起来。

11 愿搬弄是非的人在地上站立不住； 愿灾祸连连猎取强暴的人。

12 我知道耶和华必为困苦人伸冤， 必替穷乏人辨屈。

13 义人必称赞你的名， 正直的人必住在你面前。
