Psalms 56 — WBMS
56Verse 1To the overcoming, on the dumb culver of far drawing away, the comely song of David, when the Philistines held him in Gath. God, have mercy on me, for a man hath defouled me; all day he impugned, and troubled me.Verse 2Mine enemies defouled me all day; for many fighters were against me.Verse 3Of the highness of day I shall dread; but God, I shall hope in thee.Verse 4In God I shall praise my words; I hoped in God, I shall not dread what thing flesh, or man, shall do to me.Verse 5All day they cursed my words; against me all their thoughts were into evil.Verse 6They shall dwell, and they shall hide; they shall ambush mine heel. As they abide my life,Verse 7for nought shalt thou make them safe; in ire thou shalt break altogether peoples.Verse 8God, I showed my life to thee; thou hast set [or puttest] my tears in thy sight. As and in thy promise, Lord;Verse 9then mine enemies shall be turned aback. In whatever day I shall inwardly call thee; lo! I have known, that thou art my God.Verse 10In God I shall praise a word; in the Lord I shall praise a word.Verse 11I shall hope in God; I shall not dread what thing man shall do to me.Verse 12God, thine avows [or vows] be in me; which I shall yield praisings to thee.Verse 13For thou hast delivered my life from death, and my feet from sliding; that I please before God in the light of them that live.
