Chapter 56

1


 

  To the chief Musician upon Jonathelemrechokim, Michtam of David, when the Philistines took him in Gath. Be merciful unto me, O God: for man would swallow me up; he fighting daily oppresseth me.  

 

 

--

2


 

  Mine enemies would daily swallow [me] up: for [they be] many that fight against me, O thou most High.  

 

 

--

3


 

  What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.  

 

 

--

4


 

  In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me.  

 

 

--

5


 

  Every day they wrest my words: all their thoughts [are] against me for evil.  

 

 

--

6


 

  They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my steps, when they wait for my soul.  

 

 

--

7


 

  Shall they escape by iniquity? in [thine] anger cast down the people, O God.  

 

 

--

8


 

  Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: [are they] not in thy book?  

 

 

--

9


 

  When I cry [unto thee], then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know; for God [is] for me.  

 

 

--

10


 

  In God will I praise [his] word: in the LORD will I praise [his] word.  

 

 

--

11


 

  In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto me.  

 

 

--

12


 

  Thy vows [are] upon me, O God: I will render praises unto thee.  

 

 

--

13


 

  For thou hast delivered my soul from death: [wilt] not [thou deliver] my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living?
