New Testament

Psalms 59:3-9 English Revised Version (ERV)

3. For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul; the mighty gather themselves together against me: not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O LORD.

4. They run and prepare themselves without my fault: awake thou to help me, and behold.

5. Even thou, O LORD God of hosts, the God of Israel, arise to visit all the heathen: be not merciful to any wicked transgressors. Selah

6. They return at evening, they make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.

7. Behold, they belch out with their mouth; swords are in their lips: for who, say they, doth hear?

8. But thou, O LORD, shalt laugh at them; thou shalt have all the heathen in derision.

9. O my strength, I will wait upon thee: for God is my high tower.
