5. If a good man punished me, that would be kind.If he corrected me,that would be like having perfumed oil on my head.I shouldn’t refuse it.But I pray against those who do evil.
6. Let their leaders be thrown down the cliffs.Then people will know that I have spoken the truth:
7. “The ground is plowed and broken up.In the same way, our bones have been scattered at the grave.”
8. Lord God, I look to you for help.I trust in you. Don’t let me die.
9. Protect me from the traps they set for meand from the net evil people have spread.
10. Let the wicked fall into their own pits.And let me pass by safely.
