Psalm 59:5-7

Good News Translation

⁵ Rise, Lord God Almighty, and come to my aid;
    see for yourself, God of Israel!
Wake up and punish the heathen;
    show no mercy to evil traitors!

⁶ They come back in the evening,
    snarling like dogs as they go about the city.
⁷ Listen to their insults and threats.
Their tongues are like swords in their mouths,
    yet they think that no one hears them.
