New King James Version
Psalm 139:19-24
New King James Version
19 Oh, that You would (A)slay the wicked, O God!
(B)Depart from me, therefore, you [a]bloodthirsty men.
20 For they (C)speak against You wickedly;
[b]Your enemies take Your name in vain.
21 (D)Do I not hate them, O Lord, who hate You?
And do I not loathe those who rise up against You?
22 I hate them with [c]perfect hatred;
I count them my enemies.
23 (E)Search me, O God, and know my heart;
Try me, and know my anxieties;
24 And see if there is any wicked way in me,
And (F)lead me in the way everlasting.
