Draw me not away with the resha’im, and with the workers of iniquity, which speak shalom to their neighbors, but malice is in their hearts.

Give to them according to their deeds, and according to the wickedness of their endeavors; give them after the work of their hands; render to them their gemul (deserts).

Because they regard not the Pe’ulot Hashem, nor the Ma’aseh of His hands, He shall tear them down, and not build them up.

Do not drag me away with the wicked,
    with those who do evil,
who speak cordially with their neighbors
    but harbor malice in their hearts.(A)
Repay them for their deeds
    and for their evil work;
repay them for what their hands have done(B)
    and bring back on them what they deserve.(C)

Because they have no regard for the deeds of the Lord
    and what his hands have done,(D)
he will tear them down
    and never build them up again.
