Psalms 140 — Novel English Bible

1 Chalatz (deliver) me, Yahawah (), from the rai (evil) adam (man). Natzar (preserve) me from the chamas (violent) ayash (man / husband);

2 Those who chashab (devise) rai (mischief) in their lab (heart). They yawam (day) gawar (gather) themselves together for malachamah (war).

3 They have shanan (sharpened) their lashawan (tongue / language) like a nachash (serpent). Viper's chamah (poison) is under their shapah (lips). Salah (selah).

4 Yahawah (), shamar (keep/guard) me from the yaday (hands) of the rashai (wicked). Natzar (preserve) me from the chamas (violent) ayash (man / husband) who have determined to trip my paim (feet).

5 The gaah (proud) have taman (hidden) a pach (snare / trap) for me, they have parash (spread) the chabalayam (cords) of a rashath (net) by the yad (hand). They have shayath (put / appoint / make) maqashayam (traps) for me. Salah (selah).

6 I amar (spoke) to Yahawah (), “You are my Al.” Listen to the qawal (sound / voice) of my petitions, Yahawah ().

7 Yahawah (), the Adanay (), the iz (strength / might / refuge) of my yashawaih (salvation), you have sakak (covered) my raash (head) in the yawam (day) of nashaq (battle).

8 Yahawah (), don't nathan (give) the maawayay (desires) of the rashai (wicked). Don't let their rashai (evil) plans succeed, or they will become rawam (will lift up). Salah (selah).

9 As for the raash (head) of those who surround me, let the imal (mischief) of their own shapah (lips) kasah (cover) them.

10 Let burning gachalayam (coals) mawat (fall) on them. Napal (fall / be cast down) them be thrown into the ash (fire), into miry mahamarawath (pits), from where they never qawam (rise up).

11 An ayash (man / husband) speaker won't be kawan (established) in the aratz (Earth/land). Rai (evil) will tzawad (hunt) the chamas (violent) ayash (man / husband) to madachapah (overthrow) him.

12 I yadai (know) that Yahawah () will ishah (make) the dayan (judge) of the inay (afflicted), and mashapat (justice) for the abayawan (needy).

13 Surely the tzadayaq (righteous) will give yawadaw (thanks) to your sham (name). The yashar (upright) will yashab (inhabit/dwell) in your panayam (face).
