Psalms 56

In God I Trust

To the choirmaster: according to The Dove on Far-off Terebinths. A Miktama of David, when the Philistines seized him in Gath.

Be gracious to me, O God, for man tramples on me;
all day long an attacker oppresses me;

Prayer for Relief from Tormentors

To the Chief Musician. Set to [a]“The Silent Dove in Distant Lands.” A Michtam of David when the Philistines captured him in Gath.

Be merciful to me, O God, for man would swallow me up;
Fighting all day he oppresses me.

my enemies trample on me all day long,
for many attack me proudly.

My enemies would hound me all day,
For there are many who fight against me, O Most High.

When I am afraid,
I put my trust in you.

Whenever I am afraid,
I will trust in You.

In God, whose word I praise,
in God I trust; I shall not be afraid.
What can flesh do to me?

In God (I will praise His word),
In God I have put my trust;
I will not fear.
What can flesh do to me?

All day long they injure my cause;b
all their thoughts are against me for evil.

All day they twist my words;
All their thoughts are against me for evil.

They stir up strife, they lurk;
they watch my steps,
as they have waited for my life.

They gather together,
They hide, they mark my steps,
When they lie in wait for my life.

For their crime will they escape?
In wrath cast down the peoples, O God!

Shall they escape by iniquity?
In anger cast down the peoples, O God!

You have kept count of my tossings;c
put my tears in your bottle.
Are they not in your book?

You number my wanderings;
Put my tears into Your bottle;
Are they not in Your book?

Then my enemies will turn back
in the day when I call.
This I know, thatd God is for me.

When I cry out to You,
Then my enemies will turn back;
This I know, because God is for me.

In God, whose word I praise,
in the Lord, whose word I praise,

In God (I will praise His word),
In the Lord (I will praise His word),

in God I trust; I shall not be afraid.
What can man do to me?

In God I have put my trust;
I will not be afraid.
What can man do to me?

I must perform my vows to you, O God;
I will render thank offerings to you.

Vows made to You are binding upon me, O God;
I will render praises to You,

For you have delivered my soul from death,
yes, my feet from falling,
that I may walk before God
in the light of life.

For You have delivered my soul from death.
Have You not kept my feet from falling,
That I may walk before God
In the light of the living?
