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.

For the leader. On jonath elem rehokim. Of David. A michtam, when the Philistines seized him in Gath. O God, be gracious to me, for people trample upon me, all the day righting and pressing me.

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

All the day enemies trample me; many there be who contend with me bitterly.

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

In the day of my terror I trust in you.

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 maintain my cause, in God I fearlessly trust. What can flesh do to me?

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

They torture me all the day, they ceaselessly plan to hurt me,

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

banded together in secret, watching my every step, as those who hope for my death.

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

Pay them out for their sin, O God, hurl down the strong in your anger.

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

You yourself count my wanderings. Put in your bottle my tears are they not in your 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 foes be turned back in the day that I call. Of this I am sure, because God is for me.

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

In God I maintain my cause, in the Lord I maintain my cause.

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

In God I fearlessly trust, what can people do to me?

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

Your vows are upon me, O God, I will render thank-offerings to you;

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

because you have saved me from death, my feet from stumbling, to the end that I walk before God in the light of the living.
