1	To the chief Musician# , A Psalm of David. Hold not thy peace# , O God of my praise;
			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. [of the deceitful: Heb. of deceit] [are opened: Heb. have opened themselves]
			3	They compassed# me about also with words of hatred; and fought# against me without a cause.
			4	For my love they are my adversaries# : but I give myself unto prayer.
			5	And they have rewarded# me evil for good, and hatred for my love.
			6	Set# thou a wicked man over him: and let Satan stand# at his right hand. [Satan: or, an adversary]
			7	When he shall be judged# , let him be# condemned: and let his prayer become sin. [be condemned: Heb. go out guilty, or, wicked]
			8	Let his days be few; and let another take# his office. [office: or, charge]
			9	Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.
			10	Let his children be continually# vagabonds# , and beg# : let them seek# their bread also out of their desolate places.
			11	Let the extortioner# catch# all that he hath; and let the strangers# spoil# his labour.
			12	Let there be none to extend# mercy unto him: neither let there be any to favour# his fatherless children.
			13	Let his posterity be cut off# ; and in the generation following let their name be blotted out# .
			14	Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered# with the LORD; and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out# .
			15	Let them be before the LORD continually, that he may cut off# the memory of them from the earth.
			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.
			17	As he loved# cursing, so let it come# unto him: as he delighted# not in blessing, so let it be far# from him.
			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. [into his bowels: Heb. within him]
			19	Let it be unto him as the garment which covereth# him, and for a girdle wherewith he is girded# continually.
			20	Let this be the reward of mine adversaries# from the LORD, and of them that speak# evil against my soul.
			21	But do# thou for me, O GOD the Lord, for thy name's sake: because thy mercy is good, deliver# thou me.
			22	For I am poor and needy, and my heart is wounded# within me.
			23	I am gone# like the shadow when it declineth# : I am tossed up and down# as the locust.
			24	My knees are weak# through fasting; and my flesh faileth# of fatness.
			25	I became also a reproach unto them: when they looked# upon me they shaked# their heads.
			26	Help# me, O LORD my God: O save# me according to thy mercy:
			27	That they may know# that this is thy hand; that thou, LORD, hast done# it.
			28	Let them curse# , but bless# thou: when they arise# , let them be ashamed# ; but let thy servant rejoice# .
			29	Let mine adversaries# be clothed# with shame, and let them cover# themselves with their own confusion, as with a mantle.
			30	I will greatly praise# the LORD with my mouth; yea, I will praise# him among the multitude.
			31	For he shall stand# at the right hand of the poor, to save# him from those that condemn# his soul. [those...: Heb. the judges of]
