Not so, the lawless, - but as chaff which is driven about by the wind:

But, thou, Yahweh, art a shield about me, my glory, and the lifter up of my head.

I will not be afraid of myriads of people, who, round about, have set themselves against me.

To be known is Yahweh, by the sentence he hath executed, By the doing of his own hands, is he about to strike down the lawless one. Refunding music. Selah.

On every side, the lawless, march about, - when worthlessness is exalted by the sons of men.

Made darkness his hiding-place, Round about him - his pavilion, Darkness of waters, clouds of vapours.

Now, therefore, shall my head be raised high above my foes round about me, and I will sacrifice in his tent the sacrifices of triumphant joy, I will sing and touch the strings, to Yahweh.

For I have heard the whispering of many - A terror round about! When they have sat in conclave together against me, to take away my life, have they intrigued.

Thou, art a hiding-place for me, From distress, wilt thou preserve me, - With shouts of deliverance, wilt thou compass me about. Selah.

Many pains, hath the lawless one, - But, he that trusteth in Yahweh, Lovingkindness, shall compass him about.

Yet a little, therefore, and the lawless one shall not be, Yea thou shalt look about, over his place - and he shall have vanished!

Surely as a shadow, doth every man wander, Surely in vain, do they bustle about, he heapeth things up, and knoweth not who shall gather them in.

Thou dust make us, A reproach to our neighbours, A mockery and a derision to them who are round about us:

Go round Zion, and compass her about, Reckon up her towers;

Now have the heavens declared his righteousness, Because, God, is, about to judge. Selah.

They, may prowl about for food, - And, if they are not satisfied, then let them whine!

As smoke is driven about, Let them be driven about, - As wax is melted before a fire, Let the lawless perish before God.

For, God himself, is about to judge, One, he will cast down, Another, he will lift up;

Vow and pay, unto Yahweh your God, - Let, all who are round about him, bear along a gift unto him who is to be revered.

And let them fall in the midst of their camp, - Round about their habitations.

They have poured out their blood like water, Round about Jerusalem, With none to bury.

We have become, A reproach to our neighbours, - A mockery and a derision, to them who are round about us.

A GOD inspiring awe in the circle of the holy ones, exceedingly, And to be reverenced above all who are round about him.

O Yahweh, God of hosts! Who, like thee, is mighty, O Yah! With thy faithfulness round about thee:

Clouds and thick darkness, are round about him, Righteousness and justice, are the establishing of his throne.

Fire, before him, proceedeth, That it may consume, round about, his adversaries.

They wandered about in the desert - in a waste, Way to a city to dwell in, found they none;

Let his children, wander about, and beg, Let them be driven out of heir ruins;

Mine accusers shall be clothed with confusion, and shall wrap about them, like a cloak, their own shame.

All nations, have compassed me about, In the Name of Yahweh, surely I will make them be circumcised;

They have compassed me about - yea compassed me about, In the Name of Yahweh, surely I will make them be circumcised;

They have compassed me about like wax bees, they have blazed up like the fire of thorns, In the Name of Yahweh, surely I will make them be circumcised.

Thy wife, like a fruitful vine, within the recesses of thy house, - Thy children, like plantings of olive-trees, round about thy table.

If I say, Surely, darkness, shall cover me! then, night, is light about me.

As when one plougheth and furroweth the earth, Scattered about, are our bones at the mouth of hades!

When my spirit fainted concerning myself, then, thou, didst take note of my path, - In the course which I was about to take, they had hidden a snare for me.

O bring forth, out of prison, my soul, That I may give thanks unto thy Name, - About me, let the righteous gather round, for thou wilt deal bountifully with me.
