Psalms 56

The Webster Bible WBT

1 To the chief Musician upon Jonathelem-rechokim, Michtam of David, when the Philistines took him in Gath. Be merciful to me, O God: for man would swallow me up; he fighting daily oppresseth me.

2 My enemies would daily swallow [me] up: for [they are] many that fight against me, O thou Most High.

3 In the time when I am afraid, I will trust in thee.

4 In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do to me.

5 Every day they wrest my words: all their thoughts [are] against me for evil.

6 They assemble themselves, they hide themselves, they mark my steps, when they wait for my soul.

7 Shall they escape by iniquity; in [thy] anger cast down the people, O God.

8 Thou numberest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: [are they] not in thy book?

9 When I cry [to thee], then shall my enemies turn back: this I know; for God [is] for me.

10 In God will I praise [his] word: in the LORD will I praise [his] word.

11 In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do to me.

12 Thy vows [are] upon me, O God: I will render praises to thee.

13 For thou hast delivered my soul from death: [wilt thou] not [deliver] my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living?

New International Version NIV

1 Be merciful to me, my God, for my enemies are in hot pursuit; all day long they press their attack.

2 My adversaries pursue me all day long; in their pride many are attacking me.

3 When I am afraid, I put my trust in you.

4 In God, whose word I praise— in God I trust and am not afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?

5 All day long they twist my words; all their schemes are for my ruin.

6 They conspire, they lurk, they watch my steps, hoping to take my life.

7 Because of their wickedness do not let them escape; in your anger, God, bring the nations down.

8 Record my misery; list my tears on your scroll — are they not in your record?

9 Then my enemies will turn back when I call for help. By this I will know that God is for me.

10 In God, whose word I praise, in the LORD, whose word I praise—

11 in God I trust and am not afraid. What can man do to me?

12 I am under vows to you, my God; I will present my thank offerings to you.

13 For you have delivered me from death and my feet from stumbling, that I may walk before God in the light of life.
