Cast upon Yahweh thy lot, and, he, will sustain thee: He will not suffer, to times age-abiding, the righteous one to be shaken.

But, thou, O God, wilt bring them down to the pit of destruction, Men of bloodshed and deceit, shall not live out half their days; But, I, will trust in thee.

At evening and morning and high noon, have I been wont to lament and complain, And he hath heard my voice!

I, unto God, will cry, - And, Yahweh, will save me.

Give ear, O God, to my prayer, And do not hide thyself from my supplication:

For it is, not an enemy, that reproacheth me, Or I could bear it, - Not one that hath hated me, who, against me, hath magnified himself, Or I might hide myself from him;

Then I said - Oh that there were given me a pinion, like a dove, I would fly away and be at rest:

Fear and trembling, would enter me, And there would have overwhelmed me - a horror!

He hath thrust forth his hands, against them he was wont to salute, he hath violated his covenant;

Because of the noise of the enemy, By reason of the oppression of the lawless one, For they would let trouble drop upon me, And, in anger, would they entrap me.

Lo! I would take a distant flight, I would tarry in the wilderness. Selah.

Engulfing ruin, is in her midst, And there depart not from her broadway, oppression and deceit.

I would hasten mine escape, From rushing wind, from storm.

Day and night, they go round her, upon her walls, And, trouble and misery, are in her midst;
