Psalm 55:7–8

7 I would flee far away

and stay in the desert;

8 I would hurry to my place of shelter,

far from the tempest and storm.”

7 yes, I would wander far away;

I would lodge in the wilderness; Selah

8 I would hurry to find a shelter

from the raging wind and tempest.”

7 I would fly far away

to the quiet of the wilderness.

Interlude

8 How quickly I would escape—

far from this wild storm of hatred.

7 Indeed, I would wander far off,

And remain in the wilderness.

Selah

8 I would hasten my escape

From the windy storm and tempest.”

7 I would wander far away

and stay in the desert.

Selah

8 I would hurry to my place of escape,

far away from the wind and storm.”

7 Lo, then would I wander far off,

I would lodge in the wilderness. Selah

8 I would haste me to a shelter

From the stormy wind and tempest.

7 Behold, I would flee afar off, I would lodge in the wilderness; Selah; 8 I would hasten my escape from the stormy wind, from the tempest.

7 Indeed, I would run far away. 

I would stay in the desert. 

Selah 

8 I would hurry to find shelter 

from the raging wind and storm.” 

7 How far away I would flee;

I would stay in the wilderness. Selah

8 I would hurry to my shelter

from the raging wind and the storm.”

7 truly, I would flee far away;

I would lodge in the wilderness;   Selah

8 I would hurry to find a shelter for myself

from the raging wind and tempest.”

7 Look, I would flee far away.

I would dwell in the wilderness. Selah

8 I would hurry to my refuge

from the raging wind and storm.”

7 I would escape to a place far away.

I would stay out in the desert. Selah

8 I would hurry to my place of safety.

It would be far away from the winds and storms I’m facing.”

7 “Behold, I would wander far away,

I would lodge in the wilderness.

Selah.

8 “I would hasten to my place of refuge

From the stormy wind and tempest.”
