Psalm
56
1
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?
5
All day long they cause me trouble; they make a habit of plotting my demise.
6
They stalk and lurk; they watch my every step, as they prepare to take my life.
7
Because they are bent on violence, do not let them escape! In your anger bring down the nations, O God!
8
You keep track of my misery. Put my tears in your leather container! Are they not recorded in your scroll?
9
My enemies will turn back when I cry out to you for help; I know that God is on my side.
10
In God - I boast in his promise - in the LORD - I boast in his promise -
11
in God I trust, I am not afraid. What can mere men do to me?
12
I am obligated to fulfill the vows I made to you, O God; I will give you the thank-offerings you deserve,
13
when you deliver my life from death. You keep my feet from stumbling, so that I might serve God as I enjoy life.
