King James Version
Psalm 59
King James Version
59 Deliver me from mine enemies, O my God: defend me from them that rise up against me.
2 Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from bloody men.
3 For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul: the mighty are gathered against me; not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O Lord.
4 They run and prepare themselves without my fault: awake to help me, and behold.
5 Thou therefore, O Lord God of hosts, the God of Israel, awake to visit all the heathen: be not merciful to any wicked transgressors. Selah.
6 They return at evening: they make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.
7 Behold, they belch out with their mouth: swords are in their lips: for who, say they, doth hear?
8 But thou, O Lord, shalt laugh at them; thou shalt have all the heathen in derision.
9 Because of his strength will I wait upon thee: for God is my defence.
10 The God of my mercy shall prevent me: God shall let me see my desire upon mine enemies.
11 Slay them not, lest my people forget: scatter them by thy power; and bring them down, O Lord our shield.
12 For the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips let them even be taken in their pride: and for cursing and lying which they speak.
13 Consume them in wrath, consume them, that they may not be: and let them know that God ruleth in Jacob unto the ends of the earth. Selah.
14 And at evening let them return; and let them make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.
15 Let them wander up and down for meat, and grudge if they be not satisfied.
16 But I will sing of thy power; yea, I will sing aloud of thy mercy in the morning: for thou hast been my defence and refuge in the day of my trouble.
17 Unto thee, O my strength, will I sing: for God is my defence, and the God of my mercy.
Psalm 59

Psalm 59
Amplified Bible
Prayer for Rescue from Enemies.
To the Chief Musician; set to [the tune of] “Do Not Destroy.” A Mikhtam of David, [a record of memorable thoughts] when Saul sent men to watch his house in order to kill him.
59 Deliver me from my enemies, O my God;
Set me securely on an inaccessibly high place away from those who rise up against me.
2
Deliver me from those who practice wrongdoing,
And save me from bloodthirsty men.
3
Look! They lie in wait for my life;
Fierce and powerful men [are uniting together to] launch an attack against me,
Not for my wrongdoing nor for any sin of mine, O Lord.
4
They run and set themselves against me though there is no guilt in me;
Stir Yourself to meet and help me, and see [what they are doing]!
5
You, O Lord God of hosts, the God of Israel,
Arise to punish all the nations;
Spare no one and do not be merciful to any who treacherously plot evil. Selah.
6
They return at evening, they howl and snarl like dogs,
And go [prowling] around the city.
7
Look how they belch out [insults] with their mouths;
Swords [of sarcasm, ridicule, slander, and lies] are in their lips,
For they say, “Who hears us?”
8
But You, O Lord, will laugh at them [in scorn];
You scoff at and deride all the nations.
9
O [God] my strength, I will watch for You;
For God is my stronghold [my refuge, my protector, my high tower].
10
My God in His [steadfast] lovingkindness will meet me;
God will let me look triumphantly on my enemies [who lie in wait for me].
11
Do not kill them, or my people will forget;
Scatter them and make them wander [endlessly] back and forth by Your power, and bring them down,
O Lord our shield!
12
For the sin of their mouths and the words of their lips,
Let them even be trapped in their pride,
And on account of the curses and lies which they tell.
13
Destroy them in wrath, destroy them so that they may be no more;
Let them know that God rules over Jacob (Israel)
To the ends of the earth. Selah.
14
They return at evening, they howl and snarl like dogs,
And go [prowling] around the city.
15
They wander around for food [to devour]
And growl all night if they are not satisfied.
16
But as for me, I will sing of Your mighty strength and power;
Yes, I will sing joyfully of Your lovingkindness in the morning;
For You have been my stronghold
And a refuge in the day of my distress.
17
To You, O [God] my strength, I will sing praises;
For God is my stronghold [my refuge, my protector, my high tower], the God who shows me [steadfast] lovingkindness.

Oración pidiendo ser librado de los enemigos
Al músico principal; sobre No destruyas. Mictam de David, cuando Saúl ordenó que vigilaran la casa de David para matarlo.(A)
59 Líbrame de mis enemigos, oh Dios mío;
Ponme a salvo de los que se levantan contra mí.
2 Líbrame de los que cometen iniquidad,
Y sálvame de hombres sanguinarios.
3 Porque he aquí están acechando mi vida;
Se han juntado contra mí poderosos.
No por falta mía, ni pecado mío, oh Jehová;
4 Sin delito mío corren y se aperciben.
Despierta para venir a mi encuentro, y mira.
5 Y tú, Jehová Dios de los ejércitos, Dios de Israel,
Despierta para castigar a todas las naciones;
No tengas misericordia de todos los que se rebelan con iniquidad. Selah
6 Volverán a la tarde, ladrarán como perros,
Y rodearán la ciudad.
7 He aquí proferirán con su boca;
Espadas hay en sus labios,
Porque dicen: ¿Quién oye?
8 Mas tú, Jehová, te reirás de ellos;
Te burlarás de todas las naciones.
9 A causa del poder del enemigo esperaré en ti,
Porque Dios es mi defensa.
10 El Dios de mi misericordia irá delante de mí;
Dios hará que vea en mis enemigos mi deseo.
11 No los mates, para que mi pueblo no olvide;
Dispérsalos con tu poder, y abátelos,
Oh Jehová, escudo nuestro.
12 Por el pecado de su boca, por la palabra de sus labios,
Sean ellos presos en su soberbia,
Y por la maldición y mentira que profieren.
13 Acábalos con furor, acábalos, para que no sean;
Y sépase que Dios gobierna en Jacob
Hasta los fines de la tierra. Selah
14 Vuelvan, pues, a la tarde, y ladren como perros,
Y rodeen la ciudad.
15 Anden ellos errantes para hallar qué comer;
Y si no se sacian, pasen la noche quejándose.
16 Pero yo cantaré de tu poder,
Y alabaré de mañana tu misericordia;
Porque has sido mi amparo
Y refugio en el día de mi angustia.
17 Fortaleza mía, a ti cantaré;
Porque eres, oh Dios, mi refugio, el Dios de mi misericordia.
