My thoughts are restless, and I am distraught. 4 From the voice of the enemy, and from the oppression of the wicked—for they bring down trouble on me and in their anger they hate me. 5 My heart trembles within me, and the terrors of death have fallen upon me. 6 Fear and trembling have come upon me, and horror has overwhelmed me. 7 I said, 'Oh, that I had wings like a dove! I would fly away and find rest.' 8 See, I would flee far away; I would stay in the wilderness forever. Selah. 9 I would hurry to a place of refuge, away from the stormy wind and tempest. 10 Confuse, O Lord, and divide their speech, for I have seen violence and strife in the city. 11 Day and night they surround it on its walls, and trouble and wickedness are within it. 12 Destruction is in its midst; oppression and deceit do not leave its streets. 13 For it is not an enemy who insults me—then I could bear it; it is not one who hates me who has exalted himself against me—then I could hide from him. 14 But it is you, a man like me, my companion and my close friend. 15 We used to share close communion together; we walked with the crowd in the house of God. 16 May death seize them suddenly; let them go down alive into Sheol, for evil is in their dwelling and within them. 17 But I call to God, and the Lord will save me. 18 Evening, morning, and noon, I will complain and moan, and He hears my voice. 19 He has redeemed my soul in peace from the battle against me, for many are with me. 20 God will hear and humble them—He who is enthroned from of old—Selah. They do not change and do not fear God. 21 He has put forth his hands against those who were at peace with him; he has violated his covenant. 22 His speech was smoother than butter, but war was in his heart; his words were softer than oil, yet they were drawn swords. 23 Cast your burden upon the LORD, and He will sustain you. He will never let the righteous be shaken.

Selah. 5 You are radiant and majestic, more excellent than the mountains of prey. 6 The valiant ones were plundered; they slept their final sleep, and none of the warriors could lift their hands. 7 At Your rebuke, O God of Jacob, both chariot and horse fell into a deep sleep. 8 You alone are to be feared; who can stand before You when You are angry? 9 From heaven You pronounced judgment, and the earth feared and was still. 10 When God rose up to judge, to save all the humble of the earth.

But You, LORD—how long? 5 Return, LORD! Rescue my soul; save me because of Your steadfast love. 6 For in death, no one remembers You; in the grave, who can give You thanks? 7 I am worn out from my groaning; all night long I drench my bed with tears and flood my couch with weeping. 8 My eyes grow weak from sorrow; they fail because of all my adversaries. 9 Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity, for the LORD has heard the sound of my weeping. 10 The LORD has heard my plea; the LORD accepts my prayer.
