Jay P. Green's Literal Translation 1993
| 59:1 | To the chief musician. Do not destroy. A secret treasure of David, when Saul sent, and they watched the house to kill him. Deliver me from my enemies, O my God; set me on high from the ones who rise up against me. |
| 59:2 | Deliver me from the workers of evil, and save me from bloody men. |
| 59:3 | For lo, they lie in wait for my soul, mighty ones gather against me; not for my transgression, and not my sin, O Jehovah. |
| 59:4 | Without my fault they run and prepare themselves; awaken to help me, and look on me . |
| 59:5 | And You, O Jehovah God of hosts, the God of Israel: Awake to visit all the nations; be not merciful to any plotting evil. Selah. |
| 59:6 | They return at evening; they howl like a dog, and go around the city. |
| 59:7 | Behold, they bellow with their mouth; swords are in their lips; for they say , Who hears? |
| 59:8 | But You, O Jehovah, shall laugh at them; you shall mock at all the nations. |
| 59:9 | O my Strength, let me look to You; for God is my strong tower. |
| 59:10 | The God of my mercy shall meet me; God shall let me see my desire on my enemies. |
| 59:11 | Do not kill them, lest my people forget; scatter them by Your power and bring them down, O Jehovah our shield. |
| 59:12 | For the sin of their mouth is the word of their lips, even let them be captured in their pride, and for cursing and the lying which they utter. |
| 59:13 | Consume them in Your anger; consume, so that they may not be; and they shall know that God is ruling in Jacob, to the ends of the earth. Selah. |
| 59:14 | Yes, they shall return at evening; let them howl like the dog and go around the city; |
| 59:15 | let them wander up and down for food, and growl if they are not satisfied. |
| 59:16 | But I will sing of Your power; yes, I will sing of Your mercy in the morning. For You have been my strong tower, and my hiding place in the day of my trouble. |
| 59:17 | To You, O my strength, I will sing; for God is my strong tower, the God of my mercy. |
