1 For the music director; according to the yonath-elem-rechovim style; a prayer of David, written when the Philistines captured him in Gath. Have mercy on me, O God, for men are attacking me! All day long hostile enemies are tormenting me.

2 Those who anticipate my defeat attack me all day long. Indeed, many are fighting against me, O Exalted One.

3 When I am afraid, I trust in you.

4 In God--I boast in his promise--in God I trust, I am not afraid. What can mere men do to me?
