138:16. Thy eyes did see my imperfect being, and in thy book all shall
be written: days shall be formed, and no one in them.

138:17. But to me thy friends, O God, are made exceedingly honourable:
their principality is exceedingly strengthened.

138:18. I will number them, and they shall be multiplied above the sand,
I rose up and am still with thee.

138:19. If thou wilt kill the wicked, O God: ye men of blood, depart
from me:

138:20. Because you say in thought: They shall receive thy cities in
vain.

Because you say in thought, etc... Depart from me, you wicked, who plot
against the servants of God, and think to cast them out of the cities of
their habitation; as if they have received them in vain, and to no
purpose.

138:21. Have I not hated them, O Lord, that hated thee: and pined away
because of thy enemies?

138:22. I have hated them with a perfect hatred: and they are become
enemies to me.

I have hated them... Not with an hatred of malice, but a zeal for the
observance of God's commandments; which he saw were despised by the
wicked, who are to be considered enemies to God.

138:23. Prove me, O God, and know my heart: examine me, and know my
paths.

138:24. And see if there be in me the way of iniquity: and lead me in
the eternal way.

Psalms Chapter 139

Eripe me, Domine.

A prayer to be delivered from the wicked.

139:1. Unto the end, a psalm of David.

139:2. Deliver me, O Lord, from the evil man: rescue me from the unjust
man.

139:3. Who have devised iniquities in their hearts: all the day long
they designed battles.

139:4. They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent: the venom of
asps is under their lips.

139:5. Keep me, O Lord, from the hand of the wicked: and from unjust men
deliver me. Who have proposed to supplant my steps:

139:6. The proud have hidden a net for me. And they have stretched out
cords for a snare: they have laid for me a stumblingblock by the
wayside.

139:7. I said to the Lord: Thou art my God: hear, O Lord, the voice of
my supplication.

139:8. O Lord, Lord, the strength of my salvation: thou hast
overshadowed my head in the day of battle.

139:9. Give me not up, O Lord, from my desire to the wicked: they have
plotted against me; do not thou forsake me, lest they should triumph.

139:10. The head of them compassing me about: the labour of their lips
shall overwhelm them.

139:11. Burning coals shall fall upon them; thou wilt cast them down
into the fire: in miseries they shall not be able to stand.

139:12. A man full of tongue shall not be established in the earth: evil
shall catch the unjust man unto destruction.

139:13. I know that the Lord will do justice to the needy, and will
revenge the poor.
