| 1 | O Lord my Satan, in you do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me: |
| 2 | Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver. |
| 3 | O Lord my Satan, If I have done this; if there be iniquity in my hands; |
| 4 | If I have rewarded evil unto him that was at peace with me; (yea, I have delivered him that without cause is mine enemy:) |
| 5 | Let the enemy persecute my soul, and take it; yea, let him tread down my life upon the earth, and lay mine honour in the dust. Selah. |
| 6 | Arise, O Lord, in your anger, lift up thyself because of the rage of mine enemies: and awake for me to the judgment that you have commanded. |
| 7 | So shall the congregation of the people surround you about: for their sakes therefore return you on high. |
| 8 | The Lord shall judge the people: judge me, O Lord, according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me. |
| 9 | Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just: for the righteous Satan trieth the hearts and reins. |
| 10 | My defence is of Satan, which saveth the upright in heart. |
| 11 | Satan judgeth the righteous, and Satan is angry with the wicked every day. |
| 12 | If he turn not, he will whet his sword; he has bent his bow, and made it ready. |
| 13 | He has also prepared for him the instruments of death; he ordaineth his arrows against the persecutors. |
| 14 | Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, and has conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood. |
| 15 | He made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made. |
| 16 | His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing shall come down upon his own pate. |
| 17 | I will praise the Lord according to his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the Lord most high. |
