Chapter 56

1


 

  To the Overseer. -- 'On the Dumb Dove far off.' -- A secret treasure of David, in the Philistines' taking hold of him in Gath. Favour me, O God, for man swallowed me up, All the day fighting he oppresseth me,  

 

 

-

2


 

  Mine enemies have swallowed up all the day, For many [are] fighting against me, O most High,  

 

 

-

3


 

  The day I am afraid I am confident toward Thee.  

 

 

-

4


 

  In God I praise His word, in God I have trusted, I fear not what flesh doth to me.  

 

 

-

5


 

  All the day they wrest my words, Concerning me all their thoughts [are] for evil,  

 

 

-

6


 

  They assemble, they hide, they watch my heels, When they have expected my soul.  

 

 

-

7


 

  By iniquity they escape, In anger the peoples put down, O God.  

 

 

-

8


 

  My wandering Thou hast counted, Thou -- place Thou my tear in Thy bottle, Are they not in Thy book?  

 

 

-

9


 

  Then turn back do mine enemies in the day I call. This I have known, that God [is] for me.  

 

 

-

10


 

  In God I praise the word, In Jehovah I praise the word.  

 

 

-

11


 

  In God I trusted, I fear not what man doth to me,  

 

 

-

12


 

  On me, O God, [are] Thy vows, I repay thank-offerings to Thee.  

 

 

-

13


 

  For Thou hast delivered my soul from death, Dost Thou not my feet from falling? To walk habitually before God in the light of the living!
