Psalms 56

Be gracious to me, O God, for man has trampled upon me;
Fighting all day long he oppresses me.

Psalm 56^a

For the director of music. To the tune of “A Dove on Distant Oaks.” Of David. A miktam.b When the Philistines had seized him in Gath.

Be merciful to me, my God,
for my enemies are in hot pursuit;
all day long they press their attack.

My foes have trampled upon me all day long,
For they are many who fight proudly against me.

My adversaries pursue me all day long;
in their pride many are attacking me.

When I am afraid,
I will put my trust in You.

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

In God, whose word I praise,
In God I have put my trust;
I shall not be afraid.
What can mere man do to me?

In God, whose word I praise —
in God I trust and am not afraid.
What can mere mortals do to me?

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

All day long they twist my words;
all their schemes are for my ruin.

They attack, they lurk,
They watch my steps,
As they have waited to take my life.

They conspire, they lurk,
they watch my steps,
hoping to take my life.

Because of wickedness, cast them forth,
In anger put down the peoples, O God!

Because of their wickedness do notc let them escape;
in your anger, God, bring the nations down.

You have taken account of my wanderings;
Put my tears in Your bottle.
Are they not in Your book?

Record my misery;
list my tears on your scrolld —
are they not in your record?

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

Then my enemies will turn back
when I call for help.
By this I will know that God is for me.

In God, whose word I praise,
In the LORD, whose word I praise,

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

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

in God I trust and am not afraid.
What can man do to me?

Your vows are binding upon me, O God;
I will render thank offerings to You.

I am under vows to you, my God;
I will present my thank offerings to you.

For You have delivered my soul from death,
Indeed my feet from stumbling,
So that I may walk before God
In the light of the living.

For you have delivered me from death
and my feet from stumbling,
that I may walk before God
in the light of life.
