Psalms:55:1 @
To the chief Musician on Neginoth ,
Maschil ,
A Psalm of David .
Give ear to my prayer ,
O God ;
and hide not thyself from my supplication .
*
Attend unto me ,
and hear me :
I mourn in my complaint ,
and make a noise ;
*
Because of the voice of the enemy ,
because of the oppression of the wicked :
for they cast iniquity upon me ,
and in wrath they hate me .
*
My heart is sore pained within me :
and the terrors of death are fallen upon me .
*
Fearfulness and trembling are come upon me ,
and horror hath overwhelmed me .
*
And I said ,
Oh that I had wings like a dove !
for then would I fly away ,
and be at rest .
*
Lo ,
then would I wander far off ,
and remain in the wilderness .
Selah .
*
I would hasten my escape from the windy storm and tempest ca #

*
Destroy ,
O Lord ,
and divide their tongues :
for I have seen violence and strife in the city .
*
Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof :
mischief also and sorrow are in the midst of it .
*
Wickedness is in the midst thereof :
deceit and guile depart not from her streets .
*
For it was not an enemy that reproached me ;
then I could have borne it :
neither was it he that hated me that did magnify himself against me ;
then I would have hid myself from him :
*
But it was thou ,
a man mine equal ,
my guide ,
and mine acquaintance .
*
We took sweet counsel together ,
and walked unto the house of God in company .
*
Let death seize (
8675 )
upon them ,
and let them go down quick into hell sh @#
owl #:
for wickedness is in their dwellings ,
and among them .
*
As for me ,
I will call upon God ;
and the LORD shall save me .
*
Evening ,
and morning ,
and at noon ,
will I pray ,
and cry aloud :
and he shall hear my voice .
*
He hath delivered my soul in peace from the battle that was against me :
for there were many with me .
*
God shall hear ,
and afflict them ,
even he that abideth of old .
Selah .
Because they have no changes ,
therefore they fear not God .
*
He hath put forth his hands against such as be at peace with him :
he hath broken his covenant .
*
The words of his mouth were smoother than butter machama #
ah #,
but war was in his heart :
his words were softer than oil ,
yet were they drawn swords .
*
Cast thy burden upon the LORD ,
and he shall sustain thee :
he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved .
*
But thou ,
O God ,
shalt bring them down into the pit of destruction :
bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days ;
but I will trust in thee .
