Psalms

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