Psalms 56:2-13 ▼

2 My enemies have swallowed up all the day, || For many [are] fighting against me, O Most High,

3 [In] the day I am afraid I am confident toward You.

4 In God I praise His word, in God I have trusted, || I do not fear what flesh does to me.

5 All the day they wrest my words, || All their thoughts [are] for evil concerning me,

6 They assemble, they hide, they watch my heels, || When they have expected my soul.

7 They escape by iniquity, || In anger put down the peoples, O God.

8 You have counted my wandering, || You place my tear in Your bottle, || Are they not in Your scroll?

9 Then turn back my enemies in the day I call. This I have known, that God [is] for me.

10 In God I praise the word, || In YHWH I praise the word.

11 In God I trusted, || I do not fear what man does to me,

12 On me, O God, [are] Your vows, || I repay thank-offerings to You.

13 For You have delivered my soul from death, || Do You not [keep] my feet from falling? To habitually walk before God in the light of the living!
