| 56:1
| Be merciful unto me, O God: for man would swallow me up; he fighting
daily oppresseth me.
|
| 56:2
| Mine enemies would daily swallow me up: for they be many that fight
against me, O thou most High.
|
| 56:3
| What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.
|
| 56:4
| In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not
fear what flesh can do unto me.
|
| 56:5
| Every day they wrest my words: all their thoughts are against me for
evil.
|
| 56:6
| They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my
steps, when they wait for my soul.
|
| 56:7
| Shall they escape by iniquity? in thine anger cast down the people, O
God.
|
| 56:8
| Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: are they
not in thy book?
|
| 56:9
| When I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know;
for God is for me.
|
| 56:10
| In God will I praise his word: in the LORD will I praise his word.
|
| 56:11
| In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto
me.
|
| 56:12
| Thy vows are upon me, O God: I will render praises unto thee.
|
| 56:13
| 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?
