KJV : Psalms 56

verses:

1. 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?

1. To the Overseer. -- `On the Dumb Dove far off.' -- A secret treasure of David, in the Philistines' taking hold of him in Gath. Favour me, O God, for man swallowed me up, All the day fighting he oppresseth me,

2. Mine enemies have swallowed up all the day, For many [are] fighting against me, O most High,

3. The day I am afraid I am confident toward Thee.

4. In God I praise His word, in God I have trusted, I fear not what flesh doth to me.

5. All the day they wrest my words, Concerning me all their thoughts [are] for evil,

6. They assemble, they hide, they watch my heels, When they have expected my soul.

7. By iniquity they escape, In anger the peoples put down, O God.

8. My wandering Thou hast counted, Thou -- place Thou my tear in Thy bottle, Are they not in Thy book?

9. Then turn back do mine enemies in the day I call. This I have known, that God [is] for me.

10. In God I praise the word, In Jehovah I praise the word.

11. In God I trusted, I fear not what man doth to me,

12. On me, O God, [are] Thy vows, I repay thank-offerings to Thee.

13. For Thou hast delivered my soul from death, Dost Thou not my feet from falling? To walk habitually before God in the light of the living!
