It is he that delivereth me from my cruel enemies, and setteth me up against mine adversaries: thou shalt rid me from the wicked man. {TYNDALE: And delivereth me from mine enemies: thou liftest me up on high from them that rise against me, and deliverest me from the wicked men.}

Awake, and stand up to judge my quarrel; avenge thou my cause, my God and my LORD.

I lie with my soul among the cruel lions; even among the children of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.

Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the ungodly, out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.
