Psalms 56

1 [For the Chief Musician. To the tune of "Silent Dove in Distant Lands." A poem by David, when the Philistines seized him in Gath.] Be merciful to me, God, for man wants to swallow me up. All day long, he attacks and oppresses me.

To the choirmaster - on yonath-elem-rechokim of David a miktam when seized him [the] Philistines in Gath. Show favor to me O God for he has crushed me man all the day [one who] fights he oppresses me.

2 My enemies want to swallow me up all day long, for they are many who fight proudly against me.

They have crushed [me] enemies my all the day for many [people] [are] fighting to me height.

3 When I am afraid, I will put my trust in you.

A day [when] I will fear I to you I will trust.

4 In God, I praise his word. In God, I put my trust. I will not be afraid. What can flesh do to me?

In God I will praise word his in God I have trusted not I am afraid what? will it do flesh to me.

5 All day long they twist my words. All their thoughts are against me for evil.

All the day words my they twist [are] on me all plans their for evil.

6 They conspire and lurk, watching my steps, they are eager to take my life.

They stir up trouble - (they lie hidden *Q(K)*) they heels my they watch for just as they have waited for life my.

7 Shall they escape by iniquity? In anger cast down the peoples, God.

Because of wickedness (not *X*) deliver them in anger peoples - bring down O God.

8 You number my wanderings. You put my tears into your bottle. Aren't they in your book?

Wandering my you have taken account of you put! tear[s] my in skin-bottle your ¿ not [is it] in scroll your.

9 Then my enemies shall turn back in the day that I call. I know this, that God is for me.

Then they will turn back enemies my backwards on [the] day [when] I will call out this I know that God [is] for me.

10 In God, I will praise his word. In the LORD, I will praise his word.

In God I will praise a word in Yahweh I will praise a word.

11 I have put my trust in God. I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?

In God I have trusted not I am afraid what? will he do anyone to me.

12 Your vows are on me, God. I will give thank offerings to you.

[are] on Me O God vows your I will pay thank-offerings to you.

13 For you have delivered my soul from death, and prevented my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living.

For you have delivered life my from death ¿ not feet my from stumbling to go about before God in [the] light of life.
