22 May a (A)cry be heard from their houses
When You suddenly bring raiders upon them;
(B)For they have dug a pit to capture me
And (C)hidden snares for my feet.
23 But You, Lord, know
All their [a]deadly schemes against me;
(D)Do not [b]forgive their wrongdoing
Or wipe out their sin from Your sight.
But may they be [c](E)overthrown before You;
Deal with them in the (F)time of Your anger!
