he will uproot you from the land of the living. (Selah)

5:7 But as for me,
I will bow down toward your holy temple as I worship you.
5:8 Lord, lead me in your righteousness
because of those who wait to ambush me,
remove the obstacles in the way in which you are guiding me!
5:9 For
their stomachs are like the place of destruction,
their throats like an open grave,
their tongues like a steep slope leading into it.
5:10 Condemn them,
May their own schemes be their downfall!
Drive them away
for they have rebelled against you.

May they continually
Shelter them

Heal me, Lord, for my bones are shaking!
6:3 I am absolutely terrified,
and you, Lord – how long will this continue?
6:4 Relent, Lord, rescue me!
Deliver me because of your faithfulness!
6:5 For no one remembers you in the realm of death,

all night long I drench my bed in tears;
my tears saturate the cushion beneath me.
6:7 My eyes
they grow weak
6:8 Turn back from me, all you who behave wickedly,
for the Lord has heard the sound of my weeping!
6:9 The Lord has heard my appeal for mercy;
the Lord has accepted
6:10 May all my enemies be humiliated
May they turn back and be suddenly humiliated!

they will tear me to bits and no one will be able to rescue me.
7:3 O Lord my God, if I have done what they say,

Rise up with raging fury against my enemies!
Wake up for my sake and execute the judgment you have decreed for them!

who ruined its
and refused to free his prisoners so they could return home?”’

like a shoot that is thrown away.
You lie among
among those who have been slashed by the sword,
among those headed for
as if you were a mangled corpse.
