Psalms 56

1 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.

Be merciful to me, O God, for man would swallow me up. Fighting all the day long he oppresses me.

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

My enemies would swallow me up all the day long, for they are many who fight proudly against me.

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

What time I am afraid, I will put my trust in thee.

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

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

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

All the day long they wrest my words. All their thoughts are against me for evil.

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

They gather themselves together. They hide themselves. They mark my steps, even as they have waited for my soul.

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

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

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

Thou number my wanderings. Put thou my tears into thy bottle. Are they not in thy book?

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

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

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

In God I will praise his word. In Jehovah I will praise his word.

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

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

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

Thy vows are upon me, O God. I will render thank offerings to thee.

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

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