1 Rescue me from my enemies, O God.Protect me from those who have come to destroy me.
2 Rescue me from these criminals;save me from these murderers.
3 They have set an ambush for me.Fierce enemies are out there waiting, lord,though I have not sinned or offended them.
4 I have done nothing wrong,yet they prepare to attack me.Wake up! See what is happening and help me!
5 O lord God of Heaven’s Armies, the God of Israel,wake up and punish those hostile nations.Show no mercy to wicked traitors.Interlude
6 They come out at night,snarling like vicious dogsas they prowl the streets.
