[1]<Tothe chiefe musition, a Psalme of Dauid.> Delyuer me O God from the euyll man: and preserue me from the outragious man
[2]Whoin heart imagine mischiefes: and set forwarde to warre euery day
[3]Theyhaue sharpened their tongue lyke a serpent: Adders poyson is vnder their lippes. Selah
[4]Kepeme O God from the handes of the vngodly: preserue me from the outragious man, who haue deuised to thrust my feete [from me.
[5]Theproude haue layde a snare for me, and spread a net abroade with coardes in the high wayes: they haue set trappes for me. Selah
[6]Ihaue sayde vnto God, thou art my Lorde: heare the voyce of my prayers O God
[7]OLorde God the strength of my saluation: thou hast couered my head in the day of battayle
[8]Grauntnot vnto the vngodly [his] desires O God: bryng not to passe his mischeuous imagination [lest] they shoulde be made to proude. Selah
[9]Letthe labour of his owne lippe couer him: [who is] head of them that compasse me about
[10]Lethotte coales be burnyng vpon them: he wyll cast them downe into the fire into deepe pittes, that they may neuer rise vp agayne
[11]Aman full of tongue can not prosper vpon the earth: euyll shall hunt the outragious person to ouerthrowe him
[12]Iam sure that God wyll dispatche the cause of the afflicted: and he wyll geue iudgement for the needy
[13]Truelythe ryghteous wyll confesse it vnto thy name: they that deale vprightlye shall dwell before thy face
