Psalm 55

Select Translation

1 For the end, concerning the people that were removed from the sanctuary, by David for a memorial, when the Philistines caught him in Gath.
2 Have mercy upon me, O God; for man has trodden me down; All the day long he warring has afflicted me.
3 Mine enemies have trodden me down all the day from the dawning of the day; For there are many warring against me.
4 They shall be afraid, but I will trust in thee.
5 In God I will praise my words; All the day have I hoped in God; I will not fear what flesh shall do to me.
6 All the day long they have abominated my words; All their devices are against me for evil.
7 They will dwell near and hide themselves; They will watch my steps, Accordingly as I have waited patiently in my soul.
8 Thou wilt on no account save them; Thou wilt bring down the people in wrath.
9 O God, I have declared my life to thee; Thou hast set my tears before thee, even according to thy promise.
10 Mine enemies shall be turned back, In the day wherein I shall call upon thee; Behold, I know that thou art my God.
11 In God will I praise his word; In the Lord will I praise his saying.
12 I have hoped in God; I will not be afraid of what man shall do to me.
13 The vows of thy praise, O God, which I will pay, are upon me.
14 For thou hast delivered my soul from death, And my feet from sliding, That I should be well-pleasing before God in the land of the living.
