1 For the leader. A psalm of the Korahites.
2 Hear this, all you peoples!Give ear, all who inhabit the world,
3 You of lowly birth or high estate,rich and poor together.
4 My mouth shall speak words of wisdom,my heart shall offer insights.
5 I will turn my ear to a riddle,expound my question on a lyre.
6 Why should I fear in evil days,with the iniquity of my assailants surrounding me,
7 Of those who trust in their wealthand boast of their abundant riches?
