7. I would go far into the desert and stay there. Selah
8. I would run away. I would escape from this storm of trouble.
9. My Lord, confuse their words and stop their plans. I see so much cruelty and fighting in this city.
10. Day and night, in every neighborhood, the city is filled with evil and trouble.
11. There is so much crime in the streets. People who hurt and cheat others are everywhere.
12. If it were an enemy insulting me, I could bear it. If it were my enemies attacking me, I could hide.
