5 Let the righteous rather smite me friendly: and reprove me.

6 But let not their precious balms break my head: yea, I will pray

yet against their wickedness.

7 Let their judges be overthrown in stony places: that they may

hear my words, for they are sweet.

8 Our bones lie scattered before the pit: like as when one

breaketh and heweth wood upon the earth.

9 But mine eyes look unto thee, O Lord God: in thee is my trust,

O cast not out my soul.

10 Keep me from the snare that they have laid for me: and from

the traps of the wicked doers.

11 Let the ungodly fall into their own nets together: and let

me ever escape them.
