5 Good people may punish me and rebuke me in kindness,but I will never accept honour from evil people,because I am always praying against their evil deeds.
6 When their rulers are thrown down from rocky cliffs,the people will admit that my words were true.
7 Like wood that is split and chopped into bits,so their bones are scattered at the edge of the grave.
8 But I keep trusting in you, my Sovereign Lord.I seek your protection;don't let me die!
9 Protect me from the traps they have set for me,from the snares of those evildoers.
10 May the wicked fall into their own trapswhile I go by unharmed.
