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.

Do not [a]take me away with the wicked
And with the workers of iniquity,
(A)Who speak peace to their neighbors,
But evil is in their hearts.
(B)Give them according to their deeds,
And according to the wickedness of their endeavors;
Give them according to the work of their hands;
Render to them what they deserve.
Because (C)they do not regard the works of the Lord,
Nor the operation of His hands,
He shall destroy them
And not build them up.
