Psalms 55:1

1 For the leader. With stringed instruments. A maskil of David: Listen, God, to my prayer! Don't hide yourself from my plea!

Psalms 55:1 In-Context

1 For the leader. With stringed instruments. A maskil of David: Listen, God, to my prayer! Don't hide yourself from my plea!
2 Pay attention to me, and answer me! I am panic-stricken as I make my complaint, I shudder
3 at how the enemy shouts, at how the wicked oppress; for they keep heaping trouble on me and angrily tormenting me.
4 My heart within me is pounding in anguish, the terrors of death press down on me,
5 fear and trembling overwhelm me, horror covers me.
