Psalm 56
To the chief Musician upon Jonath-elem-recho-kim, ||Michtam of David, when the *Philistines took him in Gath.
1 Be amerciful unto me, O God: for man would bswallow me up;
He fighting daily oppresseth me.
2 †Mine enemies would daily bswallow me up:
For they be many that fight against me, cO thou most High.
dI will trust in thee.
4 eIn God I will praise his word,
deIn God I have put my trust; fI will not fear
What flesh can do unto me.
5 Every day they wrest my words:
All their gthoughts are against me for evil.
6 They hgather themselves together, they ihide themselves,
They jmark my steps,
When they jwait for my soul.
7 Shall they escape by iniquity?
In thine anger kcast down the people, O God.
lPut thou my tears into thy bottle:
Are they not in mthy book?
9 nWhen I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies oturn back:
This I know; for God is pfor me.
10 eIn God will I praise his word:
In the Lord will I praise his word.
11 eIn God have I put my trust: fI will not be afraid
What man can do unto me.
12 qThy vows are upon me, O God:
I will render rpraises unto thee.
13 sFor thou hast delivered my soul from death: wilt not thou deliver my feet from falling,
