1 Unto the end, destroy not, for David for an inscription of It title, when Saul sent and watched his house to kill him. Deliver me from my enemies, O my God; and defend me from them that rise up against me. 2 Deliver me from them that work iniquity, and save me from bloody men. 3 For behold they have caught my soul: the mighty have rushed in upon me: 4 Neither is it my iniquity, nor my sin, O Lord: without iniquity have I run, and directed my steps. 5 Rise 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. 6 They shall return at evening, and shall suffer hunger like dogs: and shall go round about the city. 7 Behold they shall speak with their mouth, and a sword is in their lips: for who, say they, hath heard us ?
