Psalms 59:1-5 Metrical Psalms 1650 (MP1650)

1. My God, deliver me from thosethat are mine enemies;And do thou me defend from thosethat up against me rise.

2. Do thou deliver me from themthat work iniquity;And give me safety from the menof bloody cruelty.

3. For, lo, they for my soul lay wait:the mighty do combineAgainst me, Lord; not for my fault,nor any sin of mine.

4. They run, and, without fault in me,themselves do ready make:Awake to meet me with thy help;and do thou notice take.

5. Awake therefore, Lord God of hosts,thou God of Israel,To visit heathen all: spare nonethat wickedly rebel.
