22 Let a cry for help be heard from their houses
    when you suddenly bring upon them the raiding band,
for they have dug a pit to catch me,
    and they have fixed secretly a trap for my feet.
23 But you, O Yahweh, you know
    all their plans of assassination against me.[a]
You must not make atonement for their iniquity,
    and you must not cause their sin to be blotted out from before you.[b]
But let them be overthrown before you.[c]
    Deal with them in the time of your anger.
