Psalm 59:1-13 Deliver me from my enemies, O my God; defend and protect me from those who rise up against me. Deliver me from and lift me above those who work evil and save me from bloodthirsty men. For, behold, they lie in wait for my life; fierce and mighty men are banding together against me, not for my transgression nor for any sin of mine, O Lord. They run and prepare themselves, though there is no fault in me; rouse Yourself O Lord to meet and help me, and see! You, O Lord God of hosts, the God of Israel, arise to visit all the nations; spare none and be not merciful to any who treacherously plot evil. Selah pause, and calmly think of that! They return at evening, they howl and snarl like dogs, and go prowling about the city. Behold, they belch out insults with their mouths; swords of sarcasm, ridicule, slander, and lies are in their lips, for who, they think, hears us? But You, O Lord, will laugh at them in scorn; You will hold all the nations in derision. O my Strength, I will watch and give heed to You and sing praises; for God is my Defense my Protector and High Tower. My God in His mercy and steadfast love will meet me; God will let me look triumphantly on my enemies those who lie in wait for me. Slay them not, lest my people forget; scatter them by Your power and make them wander to and fro, and bring them down, O Lord our Shield! For the sin of their mouths and the words of their lips, let them even be trapped and taken in their pride, and for the cursing and lying which they utter. Consume them in wrath, consume them so that they shall be no more; and let them know unto the ends of the earth that God rules over Jacob Israel. Selah pause, and calmly think of that! Pray for Syria, Egypt, Israel.....
