Psalm 59 :: New English Translation (NET)

Prayer for Deliverance from Enemies.

Psa 59:1Deliver me from my enemies, my God! Protect me from those who attack me!

Psa 59:2Deliver me from evildoers! Rescue me from violent men!

Psa 59:3For look, they wait to ambush me; powerful men stalk me, but not because I have rebelled or sinned, O LORD.

Psa 59:4Though I have done nothing wrong, they are anxious to attack. Spring into action and help me! Take notice of me!

Psa 59:5

Psa 59:5You, O LORD God, the invincible warrior, the God of Israel, rouse yourself and punish all the nations! Have no mercy on any treacherous evildoers! (Selah)

Psa 59:6

Psa 59:6They return in the evening; they growl like a dog and prowl around outside the city.

Psa 59:7

Psa 59:7Look, they hurl insults at me and openly threaten to kill me, for they say, "Who hears?"

Psa 59:8

Psa 59:8But you, O LORD, laugh in disgust at them; you taunt all the nations.

Psa 59:9

Psa 59:9You are my source of strength! I will wait for you! For God is my refuge.

Psa 59:10

Psa 59:10The God who loves me will help me; God will enable me to triumph over my enemies.

Psa 59:11

Psa 59:11Do not strike them dead suddenly, because then my people might forget the lesson. Use your power to make them homeless vagabonds and then bring them down, O Lord who shields us!

Psa 59:12

Psa 59:12They speak sinful words. So let them be trapped by their own pride and by the curses and lies they speak!

Psa 59:13

Psa 59:13Angrily wipe them out! Wipe them out so they vanish! Let them know that God rules in Jacob and to the ends of the earth! (Selah)

Psa 59:14

Psa 59:14They return in the evening; they growl like a dog and prowl around outside the city.

Psa 59:15

Psa 59:15They wander around looking for something to eat; they refuse to sleep until they are full.

Psa 59:16

Psa 59:16As for me, I will sing about your strength; I will praise your loyal love in the morning. For you are my refuge and my place of shelter when I face trouble.

Psa 59:17

Psa 59:17You are my source of strength! I will sing praises to you! For God is my refuge, the God who loves me.
