Psalms 56
Unto the end, for a people that is removed at a distance
from the sanctuary for David, for an inscription of
a title (or pillar ) when the Philistines held him in
Geth.
Have mercy on me, O God, for man hath trodden me under
foot; all the day long he hath afflicted me fighting
against me.
My enemies have trodden on me all the day long; for
they are many that make war against me.
From the height of the day I shall fear: but I will
trust in thee.
In God I will praise my words, in God I have put my
trust: I will not fear what flesh can do against me.
All the day long they detested my words: all their thoughts
were against me unto evil.
They will dwell and hide themselves: they will watch
my heel. As they have waited for my soul,
for nothing shalt thou save them: in thy anger thou
shalt break the people in pieces, O God,
I have declared to thee my life: thou hast set my tears
in thy sight, As also in thy promise.
Then shall my enemies be turned back. In what day soever
I shall call upon thee, behold I know thou art my God.
In God will I praise the word, in the Lord will I praise
his speech. In God have I hoped, I will not fear what
man can do to me.
In me, O God, are vows to thee, which I will pay, praises
to thee:
Because thou hast delivered my soul from death, my feet
from falling: that I may please in the sight of God,
in the light of the living. |
