Psalm 56
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?
