Psalm 56
Be merciful to me, O God, for men hotly pursue me;
all day long they press their attack eager to take my life
My slanderers pursue me all day long;
many are attacking me in their pride.
When I am afraid, I will trust in you.
In God, whose word I praise,
in God I put my trust; I will not be afraid.
All day long they twist my words;
they are always plotting to harm me.
They conspire, they lurk, eager to take my life.
On no account let them escape;
in your anger, O God, bring down the nations.
Record my lament;
list my tears on your scroll
When I am afraid, I will trust in you.
In God, whose word I praise,
in God I put my trust; I will not be afraid.
Then my enemies will turn back
when I call for help.
By this I will know that God is for me.
In God, whose word I praise,
in the LORD, whose word I praise-
In God I trust; I will not be afraid.
I am under vows to you, O God;
I will present my thank offerings to you.
For you have delivered me from death
my feet from stumbling,
that I may walk before God
in the light of life
that I may walk before God
in the light of life
