Psalms:56
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Unto the end ,
for a people that is removed at a distance from the sanctuary for David ,
for an inscription of a title (
or pillar )
when the Philistines held him in Geth .
*
Have mercy on me ,
O God ,
for man hath trodden me under foot ;
all the day long he hath afflicted me fighting against me .
*
My enemies have trodden on me all the day long ;
for they are many that make war against me .
*
From the height of the day I shall fear :
but I will trust in thee .
*
In God I will praise my words ,
in God I have put my trust :
I will not fear what flesh can do against me .
*
All the day long they detested my words :
all their thoughts were against me unto evil .
*
They will dwell and hide themselves :
they will watch my heel .
As they have waited for my soul ,
*
for nothing shalt thou save them :
in thy anger thou shalt break the people in pieces ,
O God ,
*
I have declared to thee my life :
thou hast set my tears in thy sight ,
As also in thy promise .
*
Then shall my enemies be turned back .
In what day soever I shall call upon thee ,
behold I know thou art my God .
*
In God will I praise the word ,
in the Lord will I praise his speech .
In God have I hoped ,
I will not fear what man can do to me .
*
In me ,
O God ,
are vows to thee ,
which I will pay ,
praises to thee :
*
Because thou hast delivered my soul from death ,
my feet from falling :
that I may please in the sight of God ,
in the light of the living .
