2 Save me from those who do evil.Save me from murderers.
3 Look, men are waiting to attack me.Cruel men attack me.But I have not sinned or done wrong, Lord.
4 I have done nothing wrong, but they are ready to attack me.Wake up to help me and look.
5 You are the Lord God of heaven’s armies, the God of Israel.Come and punish those people.Do not give those traitors any mercy. Selah
6 They come back at night.Like dogs they growl and roam around the city.
7 Notice what comes from their mouths.Insults come from their lips.They say, “Who’s listening?”
8 But, Lord, you laugh at them.You make fun of all of them.
