Behold, they ^(C1)gush forth with their mouths; ^(C2)Swords are in their lips, For, they say, "^(C3)Who hears?"

But You, LORD, ^(C1)laugh at them; You ^(C2)scoff at all the nations.

Because of ^(F1)his ^(C1)strength I will watch for You, For God is my ^(C2)refuge.

^(F1)My God ^(C1)in His faithfulness will meet me; God will let me ^(C2)look triumphantly upon my enemies.

Do not kill them, ^(C1)or my people will forget; ^(F1)(C2)Scatter them by Your power and bring them down, Lord, ^(C3)our shield.

^(F1)On account of the ^(C1)sin of their mouths and the words of their lips, May they even be ^(C2)caught in their pride, And on account of ^(C3)curses and lies which they tell.

^(F1)(C1)Destroy them in wrath, ^(F1)destroy them so that they will no longer exist; So that people may ^(C2)know that God ^(F2)rules in Jacob, To the ends of the earth. Selah

They ^(C1)return at evening, they howl like a dog, And prowl around the city.

They ^(C1)wander about ^(F1)for food And ^(F2)murmur if they are not satisfied.

But as for me, I will ^(C1)sing of Your strength; Yes, I will ^(C2)joyfully sing of Your faithfulness in the ^(C3)morning, For You have been my ^(C4)refuge And a ^(C5)place of refuge on the day of my distress.

^(C1)My strength, I will sing praises to You; For God is my ^(C2)refuge, the ^(F1)God who shows me favor.
