To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.

1 Hold not thy peace, O God of my praise;

H · G · S  Hold not thy peace
2 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.

H · G · S  
3 They compassed me about also with words of hatred; and fought against me without a cause.

H · G · S  
4 For my love they are my adversaries: but I give myself unto prayer.

H · G · S  
5 And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.

H · G · S  
6 Set thou a wicked man over him: and let Satan stand at his right hand.

H · G · S  
7 When he shall be judged, let him be condemned: and let his prayer become sin.

H · G · S  prayer become sin
8 Let his days be few; and let another take his office.

H · G · S  another take his office A120 69S25
9 Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.

H · G · S  
10 Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them seek their bread also out of their desolate places.

H · G · S  
11 Let the extortioner catch all that he hath; and let the strangers spoil his labour.

H · G · S  
12 Let there be none to extend mercy unto him: neither let there be any to favour his fatherless children.

H · G · S  
13 Let his posterity be cut off; and in the generation following let their name be blotted out.

H · G · S  
14 Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with the LORD; and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.

H · G · S  
15 Let them be before the LORD continually, that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth.

H · G · S  
16 Because that he remembered not to shew mercy, but persecuted the poor and needy man, that he might even slay the broken in heart.

H · G · S  
17 As he loved cursing, so let it come unto him: as he delighted not in blessing, so let it be far from him.

H · G · S  
18 As he clothed himself with cursing like as with his garment, so let it come into his bowels like water, and like oil into his bones.

H · G · S  
19 Let it be unto him as the garment which covereth him, and for a girdle wherewith he is girded continually.

H · G · S  
20 Let this be the reward of mine adversaries from the LORD, and of them that speak evil against my soul.

H · G · S  
21 But do thou for me, O GOD the Lord, for thy name's sake: because thy mercy is good, deliver thou me.

H · G · S  
22 For I am poor and needy, and my heart is wounded within me.

H · G · S  
23 I am gone like the shadow when it declineth: I am tossed up and down as the locust.

H · G · S  
24 My knees are weak through fasting; and my flesh faileth of fatness.

H · G · S  
25 I became also a reproach unto them: when they looked upon me they shaked their heads.

H · G · S  
26 Help me, O LORD my God: O save me according to thy mercy:

H · G · S  
27 That they may know that this is thy hand; that thou, LORD, hast done it.

H · G · S  
28 Let them curse, but bless thou: when they arise, let them be ashamed; but let thy servant rejoice.

H · G · S  
29 Let mine adversaries be clothed with shame, and let them cover themselves with their own confusion, as with a mantle.

H · G · S  
30 I will greatly praise the LORD with my mouth; yea, I will praise him among the multitude.

H · G · S  
31 For he shall stand at the right hand of the poor, to save him from those that condemn his soul.

H · G · S
