Psalm 56:1

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

Psalm 56:2

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

Psalm 56:5-7

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.
