¹ Who will bring me into the fortified city [of Petra]? Who will lead me to Edom?

² Have You not rejected us, O God? And will You not go out, O God, with our armies?

³ Give us help against the adversary, For deliverance by man is in vain [a worthless hope].

⁴ [3] With God we will do valiantly, For it is He who will trample down our enemies.

⁵ To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. O God of my praise! Do not keep silent,

⁶ For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me; They have spoken against me with a lying tongue.

⁷ They have also surrounded me with words of hatred, And have fought against me without a cause.

⁸ In return for my love, they attack me, But I am in prayer.

⁹ They have repaid me evil for good, And hatred for my love.

¹⁰ Appoint a wicked man against him, And let an attacker stand at his right hand [to kill him].

¹¹ When he enters into dispute, let wickedness come about. Let his prayer [for help] result [only] in sin.

¹² Let his days be few; And let another take his office.

¹³ Let his children be fatherless And his wife a widow.
