56:2 \56:1\To the choirmaster: according to The Dove on Far-off Terebinths. A Miktam of David, when the Philistines seized him in Gath. Be gracious to me, O God, for men trample upon me; all day long foemen oppress me;
56:3 \56:2\my enemies trample upon me all day long, for many fight against me proudly.
56:4 \56:3\When I am afraid, I put my trust in thee.
56:5 \56:4\In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust without a fear. What can flesh do to me?
56:6 \56:5\All day long they seek to injure my cause; all their thoughts are against me for evil.
56:7 \56:6\They band themselves together, they lurk, they watch my steps. As they have waited for my life,
56:8 \56:7\so recompense them for their crime; in wrath cast down the peoples, O God!
56:9 \56:8\Thou hast kept count of my tossings; put thou my tears in thy bottle! Are they not in thy book?
56:10 \56:9\Then my enemies will be turned back in the day when I call. This I know, that God is for me.
56:11 \56:10\In God, whose word I praise, in the LORD, whose word I praise,
56:12 \56:11\in God I trust without a fear. What can man do to me?
56:13 \56:12\My vows to thee I must perform, O God; I will render thank offerings to thee.
56:14 \56:13\For thou hast delivered my soul from death, yea, my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of life.
