Each morning I will destroy all the wicked people in the land, and remove all evildoers from the city of the Lord.

As for those who are bent on traveling a sinful path, may the Lord remove them, along with those who behave wickedly! May Israel experience peace!

Do not drag me away with evil men, with those who behave wickedly, who talk so friendly to their neighbors, while they plan to harm them!

He plans ways to sin while he lies in bed; he is committed to a sinful lifestyle; he does not reject what is evil.

When someone comes to visit, he pretends to be friendly; he thinks of ways to defame me, and when he leaves he slanders me.

You, O Lord God, the invincible warrior, the God of Israel, rouse yourself and punish all the nations! Have no mercy on any treacherous evildoers! (Selah)

The days of our lives add up to seventy years, or eighty, if one is especially strong. But even one’s best years are marred by trouble and oppression. Yes, they pass quickly and we fly away.

Indeed, look at your enemies, O Lord! Indeed, look at how your enemies perish! All the evildoers are scattered!

Do not let me have evil desires, or participate in sinful activities with men who behave wickedly. I will not eat their delicacies.
